On multiple occasions, USF receivers created separation from Alabama football defensive backs. The Bulls couldn't make the Crimson Tide pay, though. Defensive coordinator Kane Wommack explained what happened.
The Bulls looked to launch deep passes to the receivers in each of these first-quarter snaps, but USF failed to connect on all of them. It wasn’t for a lack of receivers being open, though. Each time, the Bulls created separation.Had the Bulls connected on one or two of them, they could have easily taken a lead over the Crimson Tide late in the first quarter. Of course, it’s tricky to play the “what if” game. So we won’t go any farther than that.
“They were going fast three plays in a row,” Wommack said. “You’ve seen it at, Oklahoma State was probably the team that was most famous for it, but back before they would, when a guy would substitute, now we give the defense a chance to sub where back in the day we didn’t use to do that, so guys would run the next wide receiver out, the next wide receiver out. And that’s what they tried to do.”
