to many intangibles to figure before you can even think about what the defense would be like under pelini. its really a moot point. i could go find 5 people that would say pelini would have a top 5 defense then turn around and find 5 more who would say we would be worse off. and because i like talking to people i could find 5 more that would say it would be about the same. alot of the answers you would get would be based on personal opinion of pelini, and he seems to have a love hate type relationship with husker fans nowadays.
