Impressive defensive play

I was just amased on the reciever screen that NAU ran when Siataga (sp) read it so fast and then caught him from behind. I no the got a first down but that was unbelievable for a lineman to accomplish.

Ya, and he would have got him right away if he would have turned to the side the play was developing on first. That was indicative of the way the whole team played all day.

How about the "push" Hoffenbacker gets up the middle. I believe that is the reason Murieta had a hard time seeing down field. He got away several times, but never up the middle because it was being caved in. Siataga doesn't quite have the leverage to get a big push, but he does a good job of getting off the blocks.

And, we've got three more years of watching that man-amongst-boys do his thing. If he continues to evolve as a player, I think it will really benefit our defense because other teams will have to run outside and our speed in lb will benefit.
