Opponent Defense Preview: Cougs

Related Topics: Tiger Woods, Ron Stone, Barack Obama

Today, I’m thankful for not writing an intro.

Personnel and What to Expect

For starters, the Cougs’ opponents are averaging about 25 points per game. And as you’d expect, their leading tacklers are the linebackers Jahad Woods and Justus Rogers, both of whom have been with the program since the Obama administration.

Woods, in particular, is around the ball a lot; he has 35 more total tackles than Rogers in second place. Rogers, meanwhile, has a pretty decent sense for the ball in coverage, where he’s tied for the lead in passes defended with four.

This is also a team that has 20 sacks on the year — Ron Stone and Brennan Jackson lead the way there with five and 4.
