Mavric Posted August 30, 2015 Author Share Posted August 30, 2015 If you really want to nit-pick, they predicted we'd score 28.8 ppg and give up 20.9 ppg. That would be the lowest offensive total since 2009 and best defense since 2010. Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Even with my worries about the offensive line, I still think the OWH is underestimating the offense just a bit. The defense very well could be dominant. Our strength at DT is a huge benefit to this team. Quote Link to comment

This could be the type of DLine that Bo could have maybe cause other teams fits with...I think we have a front four that can stop the run on its own. Interesting! Anyway. I see Taysom Hill ending up with a lot of DT's in his face! Quote Link to comment

I see Taysom Hill ending up with a lot of DT's in his face! Maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but Bo had his shot with this defensive line. All these guys were here last year and Randy Gregory was on one end. The Cowboys are doing fine demonstrating how good Gregory can be when he's unleashed. 408 yards by Wisconsin says Bo wasn't ablt to give them fits. MSU gave Tommy far more fits than we were able to hassle Cook. I'm excited to see these guys play in an aggressive scheme that emphasizes attacking the run, creating pressure and making plays in the backfield. Versus a defense that plays safe, emphasizes stopping the passing game, and has a bend don't break mindset. This is the Big Ten. You'd better be ready to play smashmouth on both sides of the ball, or you'll be exposed by the good teams in this league. Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I guess I just assume that guys get a little better each year that they start...I think the DT's could be flat out dominate this year...like Suh/Crick dominate. But who knows...maybe the scheme would have still held them back. Quote Link to comment
True2tRA Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Oh I agree. They should improve with another off season of preparation. All I'm saying is that I thought the potential was there LAST year for Gregory, Collins, Valenine, McMullen and Gangwish to be one of those great Blackshirt defensive lines to remember. We remember them alright. They'll always be remembered. 408 yards to one running back in three quarters of football. Sorry if I think those guys are better than THAT. They sure as heck deserve better. Quote Link to comment

So many good players back on D, especially the DL and a new scheme with better coaching...especially at the LBer spot! Quote Link to comment

Scarlet Overkill Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 OWH's Barfknecht picks Minnesota to win the West, Huskers 9-3 *fart noises* We'll see if he's crazy at the end of the season, but I think he is "on something" for thinking Wisconsin is going 8-4 with their schedule. I can't see 4 losses on their schedule. Quote Link to comment

Never understood a defensive coach running a hurry up no huddle high pace offense. Makes no sense. Quote Link to comment
