This is a really good unit that will be fun to watch.

AJE, Nelson and the DL is awesome. AJE second nationally in sacks.

Sadly we are 112th in Offense... Imagine if we had an offense that was as dominating as our defense...

NIU and Iowa State are the bottom 2...

If they can just tweak their Offense rankings into the Top 60, there'll be no stopping them.

this. An offense that approaches mediocrity would make for a very good team!

I like to think that's because of Iowa's defense.

As with almost all of Kirk's teams. Offensive criticism of KF teams is generally warranted. Would be one of the greatest coaches ever if offense wasn't so important.
