Tech is off to a 2-0 start, but the team has a lot to work on going into the Vanderbilt game and ACC play. The team has struggled in several categories: running between the tackles, first and third down defense and pressuring the quarterback.
Tech has been forced by opponents to try and beat them on the outside so far this season. Boston College did an excellent job defending Tech’s B-back dive play, and against Mercer, head coach Paul Johnson primarily ran plays to the outside.
Teams are loading the box up in order to stop Johnson’s favorite play call.
