How Tennessee and Texas A&M’s Unconventional Defense Is Silently Shaking Up College Football
When an offense gets to the half court, the Aggiesâ pressure doesnât end. The team puts two on the ball longer and more frequently than most, trusting the flailing arms of their athletic perimeter lineup to clog up the easiest passes and the layers of help behind them to neutralize threats while everyone recovers.
Basically, Buzz Williams wants his team to take away the primary play on everything. The Aggies are above average at forcing turnovers, but the main goal of the press is to wind the shot clock down before anything positive happens for the offense. And the main goal of the aggressive help on the ball and rotation behind it is to take away the primary play and make teams use their safety hatches.
