Rewatching the Iowa illini btt game, here's what I'm seeing. My credentials? I've had 6 beers and I'm bored.
1) Cook loses his defensive assignment often.
2) Pemsl is too smart for his own good. Too often he tries something on d that he shouldn't and gets beat.
3) Garza/Baer are too slow on d. Baer was different this year, slower.
4) Nunge/Ellingson bring little on d, especially Ellingson. Nunge is too slow.
5) Wagner is good on d, horrible on offense. Same with Uhl.
6) man d was excellent in this game, mainly because we didn't have 5 guys collapsing on the drive.
7) They figured out their d a bit at the end of the year...at times.
8) They are young. Next year will be much better, with or without Cook. Kreiner is good on d down low.
