Interesting tidbit...

All-Conference
We're not in the top 50 in most penalties or most penalty yards.

And in every efficiency stat on offense (Yards per play passing, rushing, qb rating, etc) we're in the top 30 and might be top 20, I'd have to re-look...

 
Link?

Although I don't doubt it.

Other than the fumbles, our offense has been pretty unstoppable.

I prefer them showing the pre-tunnel walk showing all of Dennard's turnovers versus Notre Dame set to that theme.

 
We are absolutely the only thing standing in our way of winning out. I said this about last years team and will say it again for this years, cut down the self inflicted wounds and we easily picked up 2 wins last year. Same with this year against UCLA IMO. We just need to learn to get out of our own way.

Yeah I guess it's not the quantity thats killing us, it's the timing. A big one would be that roughing the punter against Wiscy I believe? SJB??

 
I know some get tired of it but look at Kansas State. They don't make the stupid pentalies or commit turnovers. They plain and simple don't beat themselves. That is what gets us in trouble, we end up beating ourselves. Just take care of the little things and the wins will be pouring in.

 
Michigan will be tough lo, we have to win it, I doubt they give it to us like Northwestern. Penn State looks to be playing the best ball in the conference. We have some very tough battles ahead, thinking that we can only lose because of ourselves is not facing reality.

No defense, and a good offense that fumbles a lot. We will not see that with Penn State.

Hope you are right, but I think damned near everyone will be a dog fight if we are to win.

I agree and disagree...

We have hands down THE most lethal offense in the B1G. That is when we aren't killing ourselves with turnovers and penalties. Our defense is average this year, although better than where we were at the same time last year. Our O can put points on any team IMO with ease barring the above.It's just up to the D to whether they want these W's more than the other team's O. (and the Turn-O issue lol)

 
Hey guys, guess what?!?! We are in the top ten in passing D!

But wait there's more....

We lead the nation in opponent passing completion percentage at 49.29%!

Boo-yah!
