Fire Spaz {l Wrote}:twballgame9 {l Wrote}: Crane and Montel were dominating Wake when the injury happened.
Dominating a couple of drives that ended in field goals because Crane wasn't good enough to get it into the end zone.
To suggest that the success of that team wasn't 80-90% on the defense is the real revisionist history.
There was never a year in the entire history of BC football (unless you say 2006 when they were both two years younger) when BC had two defensive tackles anywhere even close to what they had in 2008. That was a once-in-a-century gig. Mike Ruth was great, but he was one. Chris Hovan was great, but again, just one. To have TWO!!!!!!
If we take all seven aspects of the 22 starting positions in football: QB, TB, OL, Recievers, DL, LB, & DB,
and if you can only have one of those where your people will be the best people in the game at the level you play, pick defensive line (specifically defensive tackle.) That one position (if your people are the best at it) makes you an instant winner. That one position (if your people playing it are the best at it) makes everything else about the team, easier.
