Also of note from the Q&A: "Missouri laid back a bit and relied on the front four. Do you expect a few more looks from Youngstown State in terms of what they bring like blitz?"
"Umm... no... I mean, they yanno, they don't blitz a whole lot. And missouri could do it because they were so damn good, their DT's were anywhere from 305 to 365. A bit of a load, and 91 was disruptive. In Youngstown, I feel like, I mean their two ends are pretty active. So, if they are going to empty the box and keep their safeties deep, like they did against Duquense, we are going to run the ball about 99% of the time. So if they start getting those guys involved, they will bring a blitz off this edge (pointing right) or a blitz off this edge (pointing left), or they will bring their safeties down this way. We gotta identify what they are doing and we gotta be able to attack it in the appropriate way.
"What gets the FCS teams into trouble, they're scholarship players, their depth. I mean their starters are going to be.. not a whole lot different in talent, until you get down to the 2nd stringers. Thats what usually gets them, more than anything. Its not the frontline guys.
We gotta be really really really on guard with that, because our opportunities are not going to be great. They aren't going to come in here and try to do what Missouri did and try to run 100 plays, and have 15 or 16 possessions. It's what William and Mary did, it's what JMU did, it's what Liberty did, they are going to limit how many snaps we can get by what they do offensively. They are only defending about 55 snaps a game at Youngstown. That's why that JMU score was really close and William and Mary score was close as well."
