Offense played its worse game of the year. Defense got to the QB, but gave up, yet again, some explosives. Those are becoming less and less uncharacteristic and more just who we are. A good D that has a couple critical breakdowns every game. NW also found a little something in the running game, not sure if that was good scheme or just bad form by us. The sack numbers really make their rushing yardage look bad.

Also, we’re actually not that great of a running team vs. B10 teams either. 152/game and 4.16/carry. Pretty mediocre.

All that to say -4.5 seems right.

I totally get your point…but

We gave up 81 total rush yards and 9 whole points after the offense put them in bad spots several times.

Also, 3 runs of 4.16 yards gains a first down every time, allegedly.

Offense is definitely the issue

The defense may bend at times but doesnt break much, vs. the last regimes bend but also break philosophy.
