This loss is not on the defense. Holding NW to 14 points is a win in my book. Forced 2 turnovers and performed well when NW had a short field. All of this while spending the majority of the time on the field after the 3 and outs by the offense.
Special Teams continues to be an issue. ISM continues to provide good field position on kick returns. After that the rest is ugly...Bad snap on a Recinos FG attempt forced a miss. Punting again resembled high school performance levels.
The coaches....poor execution my ass this is on them.
Fant - Where was the all American TE?
Play calling - Where was the misdirection on play calling? Where were the screens and bootlegs?
And the ref's I can't recall a 2 game stretch where the big 10 officiating has been this atrocious.
