The Yellow Jacket defense has been lost in the shuffle with the majority of media attention focused on the diverse Georgia Tech offense.
Let’s take a closer look:
BY THE NUMBERS
— Scheme: Multiple, 4-3
— Coordinator: Ted Roof
— Strengths: Veteran defensive line (All 4 starters have at least 4 years in the program) and aggressively intelligent linebackers.
— Weaknesses: Pass coverage and Havoc Stats (INT’s, TFL, sacks, forced fumbles, etc..).
— Characteristics: Bend but don’t break. Cornerbacks allow significant pre-snap cushion for opposing receivers.
