This is what I don’t think people understand. The teams coming into the league are a gauntlet of excellent teams. The entire culture has to change. For me it is physicality and the LOS. Blackshirts have made progress but we need elite defenders.
Purdy kept us in the game. Props to him. He was not given the chance to win the game.
I still say it starts up front. Watching our OL vs Wisconsin OL is varsity and JV.
Our WR’s also need to get tougher. They are getting bumped off routes. With a poor OL and WR’s that can’t shake defenders our QB’s have no chance.
Don’t think it can get any more disappointing and then it does. Wow that was so bad at the end when game on line. Coach speak is over Rhule, time to put up or shut up. Really need to make big changes in the offseason or we are a perennial 5 win program.
We need a player to step up. That’s the only way we are winning this game. Individual excellence. It’s like no one wants to lead on either side of the ball. Pass rush has been s#!t tonight.
