Agree with Quint here, but still think he and others are wrong that it is specifically the outdoors that is tripping us up. Lack of depth yes, poor transition defense yes, but the fact we were outdoors is simply not why we lost this one and is a tired line. Our minimal depth has lead to fatigue. Fatigue leads to more undisciplined plays and plays that come off as "lack of urgency" down the stretch as the toll of a season of extended minutes for some of these guys starts to have a serious impact. Cornell and Duke would still be taking advantage of the lack of depth/injuries/fatigue if those two games were in the dome.

I am not giving up on this team. He is right that we can bounce back too, but if Hiltz still looks the same a week from now and Rhoa/Leo are still looking less impactful with their injuries it is a tall order. Need to have Anderson bounce back and Thomson get back to how he looked earlier in the year. Need to trust healthy guys on that end like Deere.

Levine going down is such a nightmare. I would say at least we are healthy enough on defense, but that is a big piece to lose. These last two weeks have been hell.
