[QUOTE="lexwaldez, post: 1940264, member: 9817"] Friend mentioned we have an analyst, one Mr. Leonard, with some defensive experience... I'm not saying it makes sense financially but it's an interesting notion. Because we look bad. We look very, very bad. We look OBVIOUS. We're going to be so easy for teams to prepare for. B1G Teams are going to nom nom nom on us. And that's just the defense. Six or seven sacks given up? Did we have 100 yards of real rushing for the entire game? First half did NOT pass the eye test on either side of the ball. Second half... we dug such a deep hole that the improved play didn't matter. I've always felt confident in Coach B's staff but this looks like it's going to be hard to fix. The defense is SO undisciplined. They look like they haven't been coached. I get the feeling that Coach B won't make a drastic change this early in the season and I also get the feeling that if we don't make a drastic change immediately the season is going to get away from us. Right now we're looking at five wins with losses to Minnesota, Iowa, and Nebraska likely. Even if we win one, say against Minn or Neb that's as ugly a six win season as I've seen in a while. [/QUOTE]
