Mostly Tampa-2 with 4 or 5 man rush. Best pass defense I've seen us play in a long while.
I know Sindelar and Moore were out, but last week Plummer was able to put up 245 yards passing while leading Purdue to their last 28 points against Minny.
We're giving the pass rush a lot of credit ... deservedly so ... but the secondary should be getting equal billing. A special shout-out to John Reid and Lamont Wade. With no running and receivers covered, Jack P didn't have many options available to him.
A top-5 defense ... good against both pass and run ... can take a team a long way.
