USC Football: How UCLA Coach Chip Kelly Is Prepping For Caleb Williams
As the annual USC-UCLA matchup is less than 48 hours away, Bruins head coach Chip Kelly was asked about their game-planning strategy against one of the best quarterbacks in college football history, Caleb Williams.
Here's some praise that Chip had for Caleb, per Mike Regalado of 247Sports.com:
"He's probably as good as there is in the country... a truly special player... one for the ages."
Kelly didn't hold back in his compliments for Williams, implying that he's an all-time great at the position (at the collegiate level), and as such, he brings a serious of challenges for a highly-ranked Bruins defense.
In discussing his game plan for trying to deal with him, he kept it vague, but mentioned that the defensive line needs to "be disciplined in [their] rushing and get after him."
To that end, it's likely that the Bruins will send a lot of pressure. They already have the nation's top run defense, so USC will struggle to move the ball outside of through the air.
Expect a fair share of blitzes and possession football from the Bruins, as they try to keep it away from Caleb Williams, and put pressure on him when he has it.
