broganreynik Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 6 hours ago, Undone said: Agreed. And the idea that the defense doesn't have to step up and stop teams unless our offense is performing significantly better doesn't make any sense. An evaluation of the defense is an evaluation of the defense. Look at Iowa's team; is their defense great because their offense scores so many points or whatever tf? No, not at all. It's like even the fan base itself hasn't adjusted to the style of play in the Big 10 after being in this conference for almost a decade. Didn’t you know our 2009 defense was so great because of the offense scoring so much they short circuited the scoreboard? 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Unless he's canned, how realistic is it to say he'd be a great DC replacement when he's already a HC in the SEC lol. If we're playing that game I'll take Vic Fangio, I'm sure he'll totally leave an NFL HC position to be DC at a school he has zero affiliation with The assumption about Muschamp is of course that he'd be canned. Nobody here thinks he comes here if South Carolina opts to give him more time. 1 Quote Link to comment

Is there a metric out there that measures strength of schedule after the season? I'd definitely be interested in that. We thought Ohio State was beatable in our house, didn't think Minnesota would be who they are, and Indiana being better. 1 Quote Link to comment

Four times he's held teams to ten or less. Every Other Game he's given up 20 or more (21 or more, technically). I know it's only been 22 games so far, but it's weird that he's never held an opponent between in the 11-20 point range. That's it. I'm calling it - we beat Maryland 27-17 this week. Chin is due. Just about pitched a shutout, but the backups gave up a TD. Still - a Chinander defense hasn't finished a game giving up a score in the teens. Weird. 5 Quote Link to comment

I believe he has held a grand total of 5 teams to 10 and under. 2019 Northwestern, Maryland, No Illinois 2018 Bethune Cookman, MSU in a snowstorm Looks like his defense has allowed few points to offenses that score very few points. In 23 games, no opponent has scored between 11-19 points. Doesn’t feel like an unreal statistical anomaly given the sample size. 1 Quote Link to comment
madrat Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 So we can be sure it will not end up a 13-10 score against Iowa. Quote Link to comment

Husker in WI Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 So where did the people go who were insisting Chins defense was going to end up as bad as last years? The argument as I recall was Wisconsin/Maryland/Iowa were going to score enough on us that there wouldn't be any measurable progress this year, and yet: 2017: 36.4 (Diaco) 2018: 31.3 2019: 27.8 Unless Iowa goes for 70, that's improvement. Unless they go for 50+, that's significant improvement. Give him another year at least, especially with the younger guys coming up. 7 2 Quote Link to comment

huskered17 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 The offense looks good if they can finish the drives, or get some kind points on the board. Not really worried about where they are headed. What I watched against a very good Wis D, was impressive. The defense is still maybe a couple years away. Maryland used everybody, but the waterboy at QB. Yeah it was nice to see the backups get playing time, but it was Maryland. Chin need's a couple of more recruiting classes, unless next year is as bad as this year. I hope he can turn it around. It would be nice to keep a staff around that really seems to be growing together. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment

We have seen statistical improvement so far so as long as it continues next year, we should be liking where things are headed. 1 Quote Link to comment
