Time for Hank to make some adjustments. Lombardi is pretty erratic with his downfield passing. One long TD on blown coverage, and one PI penalty giving them a first down. Focus on stopping the run, and force him into making mistakes.

I’ll just take a stop and hold to three so we can go put a TD on the board and start to turn this thing.
Not a good quarter.
Plenty of time left, but some adjustments to the plan of attack need to made on offense. Defense just needs to settle down and play. Outside of the bomb against Ruiz, defense has been mostly in position.
Edit: Ruiz gives up another. Not good.

I've been wondering this all season. He loses yardage more often than he gains. If he's a third down specialist, then fine. But he shouldn't be getting as many carries as he does, particularly in short yardage. He has the power of, well, Rece Davis.
Hopefully the kool-aid is out of everyone’s system and we can get back to playing boring, disciplined northwestern football.
So you think we are really overreacting when were losing 17 and nothing look like one of the worst teams in the country
The good news is, this might force us to abandon the running game early.
I feel much better right now if we pass it.

I still think we will come back and win, but note to Seasider, this is what it is really like to be a Wildcats fan.
Nothing wrong with that. We need to stop wasting downs sending Drake up the middle. It doesn't work.
I wonder if the extra week of preparation and game planning that our opponents have had is finally catching up with us.
I thought this game would be more like 2018 where we rose to the expectations when the division title was within reach. I was wrong. We are clearly unprepared to playas the favorite and we have gone from the best defense in the B1G to looking like easily the worst.
We were never a top 10 caliber team. This does not happen to top 10 teams. With our offense we will lose 34-10 at least.
