Defense C. By far the best part of the team. I almost have them a B, but despite help keeping the scores low, they struggled getting game changing turnover plays. They also gave up some big plays in games when stops were needed. This game, they finally get a pick late, but hold on the return. Then, they have an opportunity to hold Iowa to a long FG attempt and after holding the RB to only 1 other big play the entire game, let him rip a 20+ yards. It never fails.
Special teams D: They sucked most of the season. The kicker was wildly inconsistent. The punter shanked too many. We either fumbled or fair caught most returns.
Offense D: Bad QB play. A lot of injuries at the skills spots. Johnson showed running ability at times. A few big deep plays at WR despite injuries. Too many turnovers. Stupid time management.
I predicted 6-6. No bowl game means a failure of a season, so I am disappointed, particularly since we will likely never get this weak of a schedule again. Even being in the Big 10 West, it ended up being a lot weaker than imagined.
