"It adds another element," senior Cat
linebacker Prince Shembo added. "You
know you've got to maybe change the
game plan up a little bit, but if you
change your whole game, then you're
not going to be yourself — and the next
thing you know you're on the ground."
The ability to find and execute that
happy medium on defense will be a
season-long challenge, and likely in the
future for the evolving spread or dualthreat quarterback offenses.
