UnderDog Dynasty looks at FIU's 2020 defense.

Quote from the article:

"FIU routinely uses 7-9 defensive linemen per contest, so there’s no doubt that all four defensive ends will see extended time, including together, as the Panthers’ third-down speed package utilizes Oliver and Curtis at defensive tackle with Whittaker and Jean-Baptiste on the outside"

Hopefully someday UMass will have enough roster depth for nine DL's and a Don Brown style blitz package.
