Valentine really showed out imo because he was finally able to man up. He's always been a really good man cover but we always play zone. He just doesn't have great zone integrity in his drops.
Hard to tell from tv but looked like we zoned but had Valentine play man on the backside. We definitely mixed things up which made AR-15 really struggle.
Probably the most sure tackling secondary I remember at UK; and that's saying something considering we're down two sure tacklers.
Hopefully Geiger is ok. Kid was poised for a breakout and we are going to start running tin real quick if we're already down two playmakers in the secondary
What a performance all around for the defense
