00:10 Balance, the ability to distribute the ball.
00:22 And if you look at their production, where it comes from,
00:25 obviously the backs are a big part of what they do, the addition of the new back
00:30 that they have, obviously an explosive player with Montgomery.
00:34 I think that's a really a yin and a yang type of situation, really good for them.
00:39 Obviously the rising of their tight end,
00:42 LaPorter, I think he does a really good job in that offense.
00:45 And then their receiving core, you got St.
00:47 Brown, who's a big part of their production as well.
00:50 And those guys being able to distribute the ball to those guys equally.
00:54 And that's what makes it so hard to defend.
00:56 Anytime you play a top ten offense, that's the test, right?
01:00 And certainly this offense is a good offense and it's got a lot of skill.
01:04 And they distribute the ball around to different players and
01:07 they'll make you defend it horizontally and vertically.
01:10 And whenever you have that challenge, it's gonna be a big challenge for us.
01:14 Obviously a really good offense line, one of the best in the league.
01:16 So our challenge is there for certainly our front.
01:19 And just having the time on task, Mark, that's really it.
01:22 So the Middie guy helped, we had some extra time to work with him and
01:26 talk to him about the scheme.
01:28 And get this, our particular scheme we're running this week in front of him earlier.
01:32 So I think it's always good.
