What the heck is 0-6-5 D?

Basically NO D LINEMAN. Just a joke regarding this D being VERY undersized, even for Belt games! And I hope they prove me very wrong too, Go Owls

Well, you have a good point as we are dead last in sacks (4)…….
BUT, there is some good news, and no I did not stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night:

Actually, I am less concerned about the number of sacks than the inability to stop the run. That is where an undersized defensive line really gets exposed.

Henry is closer to 275 than 220. I'm shocked at how little is changed on a weekly basis in those press packets. Compared to ULM's, it's comical. Everyone on that D-line is listed 25 pounds (or more) under what they are. Doesn't mean they're not getting knocked around though.
We do it too, not sure why. Our NT (Johnson, #76) is still listed at 267lbs I believe, which is what he came in at. He was probably right around 300 when the season started. On that same note though, if your defense IS small up front, FIU ran a defensive set against us a couple years ago late in the 4th quarter with no down linemen with great success. I guess that was during a time when they knew running the ball wasn't an option though.
