Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Quarterback Sack by Cree Storm Oklahoma Football: Defensive Line Will Survive Without Ronnie Perkins Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Quarterback Sack by Cree Storm Oklahoma football: Defensive line will survive without Ronnie Perkins. So, where does this Oklahoma defensive line go this coming season after Ronnie Perkins is gone? Right back to successful ways. Defensive line coach Calvin Thibodeaux has been a great recruiter for OU’s defensive line, and this year’s squad has some depth to it. When a team like Oklahoma loses a star player at any position, there is always someone waiting in the wings for an opportunity to show what he can do. The only real question is; Who will that be? Losing a guy like Perkins, who is probably going to be a late first- or second-rounder in the upcoming NFL Draft is not just something to easily shrug off. But there is talent here at OU. With returning players that were seen in action last year and others who may be new or missed some time, it is going to take a whole team effort to create plenty of pressure on high-powered Big 12 offenses. Oklahoma has plenty of talent returning for the 2021 season. Defensive lineman Jalen Redmond stands out as someone who could surprise a lot of people this season. After opting out last season, he has plenty to prove and should be hungry heading into his redshirt- sophomore season. The former four-star recruit has been itching to hit the field again after leading the team in sacks in 2019. He played in 13 of OU’s 14 games in 2019, including four starts, and should see plenty of action in his return in 2021. Senior LaRon Stokes will also look to get plenty of playing time on the defensive line in the coming season. Stokes made five starts last season. Senior Perrion Winfrey , a junior-college transfer a year ago, has an outstanding 2020 season, and he elected to forgo the NFL Draft and return for his senior season. With the bright lights and eyes of NFL scouts and GMson him, he will also be hungry for success and to show what he can do in a second season on the OU defensive line.

Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports. He did not put up the numbers he may have wanted, but Winfrey’s big body at the nose guard position resulted in three pass breakups and six tackles for loss. He opened up holes for Perkins last season and he will do the same for Redmond in 2021. Redshirt-senior Isaiah Thomas is going to be the replacement for Perkins on the outside. He has the potential to step up as a true game-wrecker like Perkins was last season coming off the edge for this defense. Thomas’ numbers last season were among the best on Alex Grinch’s defensive unit: 33 tackles, 13 tackles for loss, 8.5 quarterback sacks and eight quarterback hurries. He also was credited with two fumble recoveries. Junior Marcus Stripling will also give the Sooners positive production from the edge as the big bodies on the inside open up the outside guys to get after the quarterback and bust open the run game. The defensive line depth is outstanding, especially in an offense-powered Big 12. Especially on this interior defensive line, Oklahoma has great depth for Alex Grinch to develop for this year and beyond. Sophomore Reggie Grimes will most likely end up moving up the depth chart and get a good look this season for when Winfrey leaves after next season.

Mandatory Credit: Kevin Jairaj-USA TODAY Sports. Redshirt-junior Jordan Kelly is another big body to put on the interior of this defensive line, especially when you consider that stopping the run is so important in the Big 12. Having depth on the inside will work wonders for clogging up lanes for some of the star running backs in this conference. Another redshirt-sophomore, Kori Roberson at 6-foot, 4 inches, 298 pounds, will grow and develop into a monster looking ahead to the 2022 season, but his impact this season will be felt as well. If one guy goes down on the defensive line due to injury or some other reason, it’s a good feeling knowing that there is good depth available to step when needed and also provide rotational relief. So what are the expectations for next season from the front line of the improving Oklahoma defense? The Sooners should have one of the better defensive lines in the Big 12 as the defensive unit improves as a whole. Depth is so important in making the D-line complete, and this team has it and then some. Oklahoma is going to have a much easier time against the run in the coming season than the pass, but the pass rush is still good enough to cause all kinds of havoc. The more consistent the Sooners are at getting pressure from the pass rush, the less trouble is created on the back end in coverage. The Sooners should have a top-25 defense nationally this season, and the defensive line performance is going to be a big part of that. Random Canes Ramble: Don’t Forget How Dominant Bryant McKinnie Was At Miami. Not allowing a sack in two seasons at Miami, McKinnie is one of the greatest Hurricanes in program history. Share this story. Share this on Facebook Share this on Twitter. Share All sharing options for: Random Canes Ramble: Don’t Forget How Dominant Bryant McKinnie Was At Miami. When you think of the most dominating players that ever played for the Miami Hurricanes, it’s a long list. Warren Sapp, Ray Lewis, Sean Taylor, you can literally go on and on and on. One guy that doesn’t get enough recognition, though he may be THE most dominating player in program history, is Bryant McKinnie. Have you ever gone back and looked at what McKinnie accomplished? It’s downright silly. After spending two years at a junior college in Pennsylvania, McKinnie transferred to Miami for the 1999 season, where he ultimately redshirted. In 2000, McKinnie got his chance and became the starting left tackle for the Hurricanes. In two seasons at LT, McKinnie was unstoppable. During the 2000 season, McKinnie did not allow a sack, and helped running-back James Jackson top 1,000 rushing yards, as the Canes offense averaged 460 yards per game. Miami’s offensive line as a whole in 2000, allowed just 3 sacks, ALL SEASON. That year, McKinnie earned first-team All-American honors as well as a first-team All Big East selection. As part of the greatest college football team ever assembled in 2001, McKinnie was one of the best players on the field for the Hurricanes that fall. For the second straight season, he did not allow a sack while protecting quarterback Ken Dorsey, he was awarded the Outland Trophy, and again earned first-team All-American and first-team Big East honors. Maybe the craziest stat from that 2001 season, McKinnie finished 7th in the Heisman Trophy race. Most importantly, he helped Miami capture the schools fifth national championship. Few players in college football history had the type of run Bryant McKinnie did in his two years as a Cane. Between 2000 and 2001, he did not allow a single sack and physically dominated his opponents along the way. #CanesCountdown pic.twitter.com/ygQ1OUtpwP — Canes Legacy (@CanesLegacy) June 19, 2020. So in two seasons as starting left tackle for the Canes, McKinnie DID NOT ALLOW A SINGLE SACK. I’ve seen that stat many times, and every time I read it, it still amazes me, especially when you think that McKinnie faced pass-rushers like Dwight Freeney and Jamal Reynolds during his college career. McKinnie was the #7 pick by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2002 NFL Draft, and played 12 seasons in the pros. In 2012, McKinnie was inducted into the University of Miami Sports Hall of Fame. Miami has had some phenomenal offensive lineman come through Coral Gables, such as Eric Winston, Leon Sercy, Orlando Franklin, just to name a few. Though, I don't think it’s much of a debate when you say, McKinnie might just be the best. Joe Montana Just Broke America’s Heart by Revealing Everything Wrong With ‘Rudy’ Rudy is one of the most famous and heartwarming sports movies ever made. It tells the underdog tale of Daniel “Rudy” Ruettiger, a hardworking kid who dreamed of playing football at the University Notre Dame. In one of the most iconic scenes in movie history, Ruettiger finally gets into a game, makes a sack, and is carried off the field by his Fighting Irish teammates. Joe Montana, the Notre Dame quarterback at the time, recently spoke about the authenticity of the movie, and he didn’t hold back. If you’re a Rudy lover, get your tissues ready. Rudy is one of the most heartwarming sports movies ever made. When you think of Rudy , you think of one of the greatest underdog stories in college sports history. Daniel Ruettiger, a hardworking teenager in the 1960s from a small town in Illinois, decided to follow his dream of playing football at Notre Dame after his brother was killed in a steel mill accident.
