A lot of fans probably didn’t enjoy the incredibly low-scoring Pac 12 championship game. After all, there wasn’t a single offensive touchdown scored in the entire game. Savvy fans, however, know that they saw an incredible display of defensive explosiveness from both teams. No one is going to mistake either the Utes or Huskies for the Bill Walsh-era San Francisco 49ers, but this was absolutely not a case of offensive mistakes, inefficiencies, or, well, offensiveness - this was pad-cracking defensive play, after play, after play. This was a clinic in defensive line execution and form tackling, plus mixing coverages and knocking receivers off their routes.
