The defense is not good right now and that is what BUbba builds around. Offense not good either, which is making defensive problems even worse.

This is basically the same dline that won the Big Sky last season. They don't seem to be making plays either.

IMO they are close on some assignments, but a bigger problem overall is that when the linebackers are in the right spot they either can't make the play or the ball carrier gets another 2-5 yards after contact.

I feel like this is a huge problem. Nobody seems to take the bull by the horns when the chips are down. There is still time, but someone needs to get it going in the right direction and stop making excuses.

Kickoff returns only.

I don't disagree with your post I just don't think you are taking into account the degree nor depth of the injuries to this years team. 2016 team was a play away from making it into the national semi finals. why would there not be hype?

Anyone know what the scoop is with Murray? He gives good effort on most kickoffs. He looks like 5'11" to 6'0" and 225? Why don't they give him a shot?

Any chance for Hunt or Larson next week? Rastas plays hard but really struggled at times today. Gets bounced around pretty steadily. He and Jake getting dragged in tackles.

We need to find a way to win a few games this season. Will make recruiting much tougher with a season below .500.

Luke Fiedler significant upper body injury today too

I saw that, I thought you had some info about seriousness.

What is wrong with cole?

Possible but unlikely if we cant stop the run.

It all feeds on on itself. Schmidt wants to blitz 85% if the time. Much less effective when they are gouging us up the middle in first down for 5plus yards. Give MSU, credit for taking advantage of our undersized ILB, I believe #15 is a linebacker on the roster. Big guy taht can run north and south and did today. I don't think the DL is playing up to par, but even when the LBers are in position to make a play they are being dragged for a couple extra yards.

Pretty hard to win when you can't stop the other team running the ball and you can't run the ball. Not sure where we go from here? Does anyone have any idea when we get some if the injured oline and ilb back? Not excusing some of the coaching problems, just some major holes in key positions.

Defense can't stop the run and the offense running for 92 yards will not win another game this season.

Olbs selling out

It's killing us.

It's a banged up team that can't stop the run. If they come back and win, a very big if they will have found an identity.

Wow. We look bad. Completion with 21 seconds, let it run down to 8 seconds and call timeout?

Msu is playing a 215 lb linebacker at rb. Can't stop him

Msu rb is listed as a lb

Finally!

Qb killing us

D can't get off field
