Defending LSU's Precision Strikes

Thought some here may like this article. Well written I thought.

I like the conclusion:

The main goal of inverted Tampa 2 is to remove the ability for offenses to launch precision strikes by running their best receivers into open grass down the field against isolated defenders. In this coverage you get Muse and Turner sitting on top of the routes with help inside from Simmons, it’s not a good place to go. Instead the Tigers would have to work their way down the field throwing underneath on the nickel, cornerbacks, and linebackers.

That philosophy is how Venables has been playing these playoff games against explosive spread offenses. Against Alabama and Ohio State he forced them to work their way down the field and then convert in the red zone. Texas didn’t play LSU this way and were burned, Auburn had some packages but they still allowed the Tigers to isolate their corners down the field. If Venables takes away these sorts of downfield strikes, Clemson can win this game.

I'm really more into "carpet bombing" LSU into oblivion

than the "finesse" of "precision strikes."
