Last year spoiled me
IMO the DL and the LBs just don't have the foot speed of the elite we lost
so they have to function much more in sync to make up for it
Significant miscommunication between the whole defense but when you lose what we did gonna take time
but I hope something miraculous happens before we enter the skid rows of the remaining schedule

It's going to be interesting to see if Patricia can pull this D together.

Yes, but honestly the D was probably the first question in his mind, and as HC, it should be moving forward.

Yeah as it should be. I’m pretty worried about the Iowa running back next week in Kinnick.

The defense for Iowa is going to do better than Illinois so we can’t afford to give up 20 or so.

Random thoughts;

I never thought the defense would lose three top 10 guys in the draft and stay at the same level so not disappointed but it’s clear they have a long way to go. They scare me.

Much like Sayin, they are going to get attacked and they will either get better, or implode.

Bert and his staff are good coaches so they just added to the growth through the stress (hopefully)

3rd and 4th downs (defense)…. JFC

Yeah being 2/3 for third down would lead the country by a mile.

Offense did great all day.

What I liked was they varied their approach. They went run heavy for an 8 minute drive and then sped up for a couple 90 second drives too. Then Julian with his legs was a whole new level of good to see.

I won’t even go over the defense. It’s good to get a win!

Also the first question to Ryan was about why the defense sucked and he pointed out that he knew the first question would be negative even though the offense was the highlight of the day

Valenti had a segment on your Mt Rushmore of hate. Obviously, Simple Jim immediately jumped to mind, and he was such an overwhelming choice (all the way back to 86) that I actually struggled to think of three more. Best I could do is Doug "Boner Pill" Flutie for stealing Byers' Heisman.

In the end:
Simple Jim
Flutie
Max Verstappen
John Cooper

Swap out Max for Herbie and I’ll roll with that.

REFLECTIONS
6 TD drives: 75, 93, 87, 67, 80, 43 yard drives.
518 total yards
Julian and Jeremiah were on fire today
75% completion percentage
8 for 12 on 3rd downs. Better but not good. 67 %
2 for 2 on 4th down
151 rushing yards at 4.7 per carry. Both Jackson's ran hard
Julian got a TD and a few first downs running the ball. Happy about this.
Can't recall us giving up a sack
Not happy with the D
Click to expand...
Tough crowd. Coaches would kill to go 8/12 on 3rd down. If McCuin catches a ball that hit him in the hands, it’s 7/11 because that next 3rd down doesn’t happen.

Underwood is managing to not miss these guys but they are wiiiiide open. Some good D Iowa has

Their whole offense is based around plays to scheme guys open, because they can't get open otherwise and their QB can't read a defense to find them open anyways. I wish we did a little of that......but you shouldn't be able to build an entire offense around plays like this.
