You don't seem to understand much about football.
Last year, Ohio State's Knowles deployed a high risk defense. For most of the game, it worked, shutting down both the running and passing game. Unfortunately, when you blitz and don't get to the QB, you can get burned. Which is what happened. And when you go into 8 an 9 man fronts, if you don't have gap integrity, you can give up long runs if the back passes your Maginot Line. Which is what happened.
Ohio State fans consoled themselves with "it was only five plays!". I Michigan knew everything OSU was going to do, why was their success limited to only five plays? Knowing what was coming from the Buckeye offense, why did they allow 490 plus yards? Your theory doesn't hold up under scrutiny.
