This was a nice play by Oklahoma LB Kenneth Murray. IDs the puller, remains disciplined to stay square to LOS then opens up once the RB gets outside the tackle. Pursues the RB inside-out & makes the tackle. Can really see the burst & speed. Don't like how high he tackles though
Murray had 3 different plays where he overflowed when mirroring a puller. Seems to me like he stuck on his initial read - the puller - too long on each one. 3rd one was especially worrisome because of choppy COD.
Getting shook like this in space isn't good.
Murray does do a good job of attacking and blowing up screens. His burst makes it tough for OL to get a hand on him unless they take a perfect angle.
Just can't be this soft on the goal line. Just lets the TE wash him down the LOS without much fight. Not good.
