Pitt's D is down.. Kent a bit better than advertised.. this should give a good preview. Kent/Pitt/Temple will load box and rush passer.. maybe by game 3 here is our best scenario.
1) QB turns blitzes into 5 year gains by simply hitting the sticks with a pump fake and some foot speed.. he becomes even more of a a pain when he turns the the corner a few times.
2) Pass rushing PSU becomes a nightmare.. DL can't even get hands set on ground due to pace of O.. yet alone run twists and communicate pre-snap. Sub packages are hindered due to pace.. this is tough. you can't sub.. and THEN the D stands there for 15 seconds (ala Oregon) as we call the play and are set to snap. We might even get a few offside. draws with the pace. The pre-snap delay takes it right out of the pass rusher's leg... if they don't put their hands down.. Trace goes quick count and gashes them with Bark's.
3) as they test our outside edge pass set-ups.. Bark's picks up 90 yards on 5 timely called draw audibles.. as there is not a MLB on Pitt, Temple, or Kent that can handle him one on one
4) Pass Rushing is impossible.. can't sub.. too much pace.. 3 step drops and roll outs tire and discourage the DL
5) there might be one CB (Whitehead) who can stay with Godwin or Blacknall.. there rest will be chumps.-sg
