56-5 and leading at halftime yet every week a new coach needs to be fired. Last week everyone says the defense was amazing, now it's terrible. Spoiled fanbase

Absolutely but the criticisms aren't without warrant either. Urban won his first 24 games but it was obvious the defense was not where it needed to be and it cost him an NC in 13. He got rid of Whithers and reaped the benefits. He needs to do the same this offseason with the offensive staff

I'm over the 'this is actually a good team' I used to believe that and while NW has played fine so far, how much of that is due to us making them look good? We seem to make a lot of teams look good then they [Mark May] the bed after playing us. While credit is due to Nw, it's not like we're playing lights out. Stupid false start penalties that are still there halfway through the season, dropped passes, o line giving up plays and JT have some indecision still. Not Ohio State football.

Let's remember this is THE youngest team in the FBS. Many of these guys still have very few games under their belt. Remember also the NW has the RB with the most yardage in the B1G and the best WR in the B1G. They also have the guy with the most sacks in the B1G on Defense.

I share your frustration for sure. But a lot of our problems are related to youth. Let's see how they regroup and come out in the 2nd half.
