Our defense looks awful

Is it just me or does our defense look absolutely horrible? The Huskies are playing their second-string QB and their second-string HB and we are getting steamrolled.

I'm getting sick to my stomach.

Wolf just scored again.

Two things ...

1) Our tackling is awful.

2) They've run the same rollout-throw-the-out pattern a zillion times. Each time we look like we've never seen it.

The only way we win this game is if we pitch a shutout the rest of the way and our defense makes at least two huge plays. If not, stick a fork in us.

Yep, when our offense can't control the game, we're in trouble because our defense isn't capable of doing so.

That WAS a terrible call on the second TD run, but they guy's been running amok all night.

Is someone going to be the playmaker on defense that shifts the momentum?

We've also done a very bad job of pass protecting on 3rd down. Omar hasn't been able to get set at all.

We're down 31-10 with 6 minutes left. Can we pull it together to put one more score on the board?

we've also been screwed by the mac for allowing niu students to sit right behind us AGAIN. I'm calling for a unofficial student section right behind their arses for next yr. AND THEN SOME. FORK UNSPORTSMANLIKENESS. i'm george w and i approve this message.

Well, at least we put another score on the board. If they had kept us out of the end zone the entire game after that first drive, I would have been hopelessly depressed.

Now if the defense can TACKLE SOMEBODY, maybe we could make it look a bit closer. Wolfe has more than 171 yards in the SECOND FREAKIN' HALF. Somebody, please put a hat on this kid.

I'm not used to seing teams run outside on us so effectively. We look so slow.

Maybe next year we will tyackle someone. I think I might take an extra year of classes so I can see a MAC championship in football. NIU ran ALL over us,
