1. The fundamentals. Nothing else comes close, IMO. Fumbles, lineman jumping, personal fouls, pass interference, unbelievably poor tackling, muffed punts.
2. Our defensive personnel problems are well documented already... more beef in the middle and more speed on the outside. Recruiting - make it happen.
3. Special teams is a huge problem nobody seems to be talking about. This might have been of the worst Nebraska special teams units of all time. Maher was okay, but regressed. The return units were terrible. We must have set a record for muffed punts this year... and as a result, we stopped fielding them altogether or fair catching and giving up tons of field position.
4. Find a right tackle with a clue.
5. Priority #1 for Taylor Martinez - making sound decisions with the football.
