I'm trying to decide which is worse, our defense or special teams. Both were supposed to be Allen's strength, and somehow we've gotten a lot worse in both areas since he took over.

That's definitely not true. We finished the season ranked 26th in defense and we led the nation in getting teams off the field on third down iirc. We're really young this year, with 55 freshmen on the roster, but should look better on that side of the ball next year. The only really awful part of our defense this year is the pass rush but that has impacted a lot of other areas

We have to be the only Big Ten team whose opponents go for it on 4th down on their own side of the field.

And they convert.

After reading the first few pages, I remembered why I don't visit these game threads as often anymore.

It's sad to see opponents that know they'll get the first on 4th and short.

This is two straight weeks we've gotten a takeaway in the opponents territory and then just went for deep passes three straight downs.
