1) if you can stop the running game with only your front 7 personnel then pressuring the QB is less significant. We're more concerned about contain than outright pressure.
I understand this concept, but I've been scratching my head all week because Harris just stood backed there and picked us apart when we did that. Seems like there needs to be some way to pressure the QB into mistakes. What I ultimately decided on is that our approach was to try to make them eventually beat themselves by making them run a lot of plays and to just keep them from scoring on big plays. Of course if that was the strategy we didn't execute it. 
we had more assistance up near the line once Miller popped one on us. Even before that we had some help near the line in certain situations. And we played with a double digit lead for a large portion of the game. We played some of that game on the side of caution with corners off the line 10 yards and backpedaling at the snap. We conceded some deep middle stuff and he did hange a nice one over A. Brown on a deep seam with the TE.
It surprises me that people think Harris can't throw...he averaged 270 per game passing last season and is a senior. He was going to get his. The thing people get fixated on with Harris is that he's turnover prone, and he is...but he'll get his yards down the field as well.
I don't think Baylor is suiting up anybody at RB this week that scares the hell out of us nor is their ground game considered to be that of Miami, not straight up at least.
Remember, too, that QBs have a clock in their heads before they start looking for more room to buy time. Once he moves in the pocket or away from the pocket the dynamics of the pass blocking change. Pressure can materialize from that movement. Again, the biggest key is to stop the run with the front 7 and CONTAIN him to the pocket. I think we would much rather him throw in the pocket vs. 7 then get out of the pocket.
