I thought Gifford made a few good plays. Buford and Newsome had some nice tackles. Nelson got to the QB with a sack and some pressure. Reimer was lively (although a little too much on one play)
Outside of them I'm coming up blank. I can't really say I noticed anyone on the D-line do much. Caleb Tannor has been such a non factor I don't understand why we don't just go with a young guy to develop some experience in his place.
Can anyone say how Lutovsky did? The rest of the line was it's normal dogshit nonsense but I've written them off, I just am looking for evidence that Luto can maybe become something eventually. I don't think we would notice any difference if we would replace Benhart with a mannequin in a helmet.
The offense was just awful in a game that the defense was actually making a few plays. Couple that with Illinois not playing so well and we had a fucking chance up until Casey got dinged. I mean honestly they ran out of bounds once when they could have gotten a first down easily. They had false starts to take them out of FG range. They botched a trick play when one wasn't even needed. They even had a non contact fumble and we didn't punish them for any of it.
That's how bad we are. That is what Scott built. That if the other team has any quality at all they can seriously play a C minus game and still beat us comfortably. Thanks, Scott. I hope the beers and Golden Tee was worth it.
