Would it make sense every time ND plays zone against Miami to have Leonard Moore play man defense on Malachi Toney?

I think slowing Toney down is extremely important. Limiting him to under 100 yards receiving and no more than one TD catch would be huge.

- The Cover-2 defense and its variations is probably a rough analog. John Clayton explained it... SteveM 4:30pm · 11/3/26
