Alabama’s defensive coordinator Pete Golding developed a dangerous pressure package in the offseason.
The “cheetah package” is nothing short of scary, and it features Will Anderson, Dallas Turner, and Chris Braswell.
All three edge rushers were five stars out of high school. They bring speed, quickness, explosiveness, power, leverage, and technique to affect quarterbacks. The trio was critical in the Crimson Tide’s close win over Texas A&M last week inside Bryant-Denny Stadium. Haynes King tossed two touchdowns, but the Aggies quarterback was also running for his life on the field.
Anderson, Turner, and Braswell combined for four tackles for loss, three sacks, and 12 quarterback pressures.
