Message: [QUOTE="Dick_in_MI, post: 92463, member: 225"] No, but that really isn't the point is it? I have not seen anyone suggest that our offense or special teams aren't the biggest problem. I do think it's folly to give the D a free pass though. Maybe if we were a Top 30 defense, then you could do that. But when the D is ranked #72 in total D, #70 in scoring D, and both rankings likely to drop even further after today, then they have to be subject to some scrutiny as well. Since you want to throw out the WVU game for the O, let's do WVU for the D too...that would mean that there were only two other games where we held the opposition to fewer than 27 points and one of those was Rhode Island. The D may not be the biggest problem, but it's certainly not helping the cause. It would be foolish to gloss over it. [/QUOTE]
