We cannot be in 4th and 1 situations against Iowa. That one could have been it for us. We convert then maybe we go down and score. We let them march down the field here, we’re done. We are not storming back from a 3 TD deficit against Iowa without Chiles.

If I were to post, it would only be redundant. But, what is wrong with NU's defense?

Who are the football wizard posters who poked fun at the post asking for odds we'd finish 0-4???

We’re used to having a defense that is better than the offense. So. We expect to at least keep the other team within reach for our offense to get going. We were not as talented as we needed to be from the start, even without injuries. Especially on DL. And no one has really stepped up to fill the gaps (literally).

Scoring drive to run out the half and getting the ball back would be a big salvage to a disastrous start.

Defense keeping us in the game. Offense not performing to win. Game as expected so far. Can’t win if you don’t score.
