Good call on hockey as well.Old saying goes all prevent defense does is prevent you from winning. We see the same thing in hockey.
I'm guessing with all of the analytics if it didn't work most of the time they would stop doing it. Although I noticed in the Memphis-Florida State game Saturday that Memphis went into it and started giving up yards and then mid stream they went back to blitzing. One of the first coaches I've seen be willing to do that rather than ride a prevent right into a loss.
Probably analytics. Coaches love to overthink. Guess why they make the $$. To me, if your D has worked to keep you in the game, why go through such a radical scheme change??
