I think the strain of having to be a focal point on offense created some slip ups from Mutts. He was in an optical position aside Aluma who was more comfortable on the block and an elite passer out of there which freed Mutts up. Basile was a different threat, and put more stress on Mutts, IMO.

Defense fell off a cliff with the additional tape on Basile and Pedulla -- soflahokie Mar 31, 2023 at 02:17 PM ET

I spotted Basile from day 1 - liability on D, asset on O (sort of) -- reece4vt Apr 01, 2023 at 11:29 AM ET

Defense slipped the most. Prob due to bodies/fatigue, but can't answer it -- 6thStreetHokie Mar 31, 2023 at 11:24 AM ET

You asked what changed. Not sure why it irks you -- HokieAl Apr 01, 2023 at 01:18 PM ET

HokieAl • 04/01/23 01:18 PM ET

your response doesn't irk me. It's the consistency of "it was injuries" as -- reece4vt Apr 02, 2023 at 11:52 AM ET
