“In a lot of ways they’ve emulated Stanford to the point where they are the new Stanford, and right now they’re more talented.”
“This team is a brand. It’s a toughness and defense. They’re the most physical team in the conference every single year now, and they’re one of the meanest in the game. This is all Whit [Kyle Whittingham]; it’s his mindset, it’s his attitude. ‘Mental toughness” is a cliche but Whit has those guys ready. They’re even, never too high or low.”
“They’re not schematically unique, they’re not wizards, they’re just technically sound, fast, well-trained and violent.”
“[Andy] Ludwig is coming along with the offensive side, they’re starting to build their own brand there, too. You see consistency in the calls. Again, you know what they are when you go in: they’re built by their running game, with the backs and with QB run and moving the pocket. That works because they’re usually good up front, and when they can run steady they’re going to work you as much as they can with play action. It’s one of the best matches to a defense of any offense in the Power 5.”
“If you’ve seen Charlie Brewer’s tape from Baylor you should be scared playing these guys. It’s never a guarantee that a grad transfer locks in right away, but these pieces fit, man. If Brewer plays like he did when [Matt] Rhule was still at Baylor, this team can win the conference.”
