Clear communication along the defensive front
The Sooners want to use their depth against the Green Wave. That means Grinch and defensive line coach Calvin Thibodeaux plan to open the floodgates and release the depth at defensive tackle and nose guard.
With Perrion Winfrey, Jordan Kelley, Isaiah Cole, Josh Ellison, Jalen Redmond, LaRon Stokes, and Kelvin Gilliam substituting in and out of the game, it will be critical that everyone is on the same page defensively. This miscommunication could become especially dangerous when you consider the number of ways Tulane can run with the football.
