Miami DT Justin Scott on Duke Running Game, and Getting off the Field on Third Down

What have you seen from them on film, and how do you go about attacking such a good running back? With those good backs, especially like we done played Jeremiah Love in the past, and those types of guys like that, you give them any type of little room, and they could turn it to a 50, maybe a touchdown. So kind of just eliminating those little... Um, seams and those little holes in the run defense. Um, cause looking at the film on that guy, he'd take one and he's gone and there's no catching him. So yeah, we just got to play with real good detail and really just seal off gaps in the run game. And on the pass rushing side of things, how would you evaluate the defensive line in general's, um, play so far the last couple of weeks, uh, just in getting, getting to the quarterback, creating pressure. Um, I feel like we've been getting to the quarterback. Um, I mean, I feel like North Carolina, he's had about two sacks. Um, I had about a half a sack. Um, and then really, I really only stem it. It was kind of last week, but you know, that's a real great, um, offensive line right there. So, yeah. Gotcha. Thank you. All right. Next, we're going to Jordan. Justin, I was just curious about your guys' energy and focus and all that type of stuff since over practice the last few days. Obviously, first game of the season coming off a loss. How have you guys taken that and done what you had to do to try to just get things back on track? Kind of just how I told you guys at the Notre Dame game. It was just we kind of we came out the game slow. We know defending ACC champs, real good offense. So it's kind of no no room to come out scared. We got we got to come out from the jump with all that energy and just be on one. All right. Next, we're going to Andrew. Hey, Justin, thanks for doing this. I just asked Mo about trying to bring Nate Shepard down to the ground because he's so good at breaking tackles. And he said, you guys are going to have to swarm like a pack of piranhas, which is a great quote. But it's easier said than done sometimes against a guy like that. So when you think about just swarm defense to try to get him down, what are the biggest keys to being able to do that? Kind of just no hesitation, take your shot, and then that's where the Swarm's going to come and make you right. Kind of no breakdown, just go ahead, take your shot, kind of dictate the tempo of the game. Don't let them kind of dictate or run the tempo of the game. And it seems like their passing offense has gotten a little bit more in rhythm the last few weeks, maybe compared to the season. Just what have you seen from their quarterback in terms of maybe feeling a little bit more comfortable and confident right now? And how can you guys kind of disrupt that rhythm? Yeah, I mean, as the season goes on, you know, tons of people, everybody's gonna get more confident, you know, just playing more games, getting more games under your belt, especially up front, them being a veteran group. Just all around, it's a real good offense. We're just gonna have to stick to our keys, the same thing that we do every week, stop the run and just make teams win.
