ALBANY, Georgia — The Albany State Rams know that a return trip to the SIAC Championship Game won’t be an easy one and will likely have some bumps in the road. As they navigate the season with a new coach and a new quarterback, they’ll rely on their one constant — the defense.
After the first scrimmage last May, interim head coach Dan Land said he doesn’t want to make any drastic changes on that side of the ball and for good reason. As a team, the Rams held opponents to 173 total points and 17.3 points a game and 254.9 total yards of offense last year.
“We’re not trying to recreate the wheel here. All we did was took exactly what we had, that we know we’re good at, and just change some things that would best benefit us on defense and on offense,” Land said after the Dirty Blue Defense’s spring scrimmage win. “Normally on offense, we would do more offensive sets and on defense, what we’re doing now is more zone defense…making the quarterback read more.”
