wondering what the stats are for how many times Rich Rod shakes his head at Greg Robinson in disgust over his defense?

So, the defense fumbled and threw 3 pics? You think the D lost this game? Or, were TOs the primary reason we lost for the second game in a row!

When did this so called "face mask penalty" go into effect? I've never heard of it before. I'm assuming high school does not have this penalty and so that's how a lot of kids make their tackles at the high school level.

The defense played well enough to keep us in it the last two games. You can't keep giving the ball away and expect to win.

We squeaked by Indiana by 7 points and lost to Michigan State and Iowa by 17 and 10 respecitvely. In conference play, Indiana has allowed 17.5 points more than it has scored. State & Iowa on average have scored 15.7 & 15.5 points more than they have allowed, but of course all three have inflated points scored averages, thanks to having played us.
So if we look at our remaining games by comparing average points scored versus average points allowed, one might predict the following:
In Conference: results through 10/16/2010 Remaining
Ave Pts Scored Yielded Diff W/L Prediction
U of M 29 35.7 - 6.7
Penn St. 8.0 28.5 -20.5 W
Illinois 17.3 21.0 - 3.7 toss up
Purdue 24,0 17.0 +7.0 L
Wisconsin 31.7 25.0 +6.7 L
Ohio State 26.7 18.0 +8.7 L
Based on the above alone, we go 2-3 and finish conference play at 3-5. If so, we've barely improved on 2008 or 2009. But since we have allowed on average 35.7 points in
3 conference games, it is difficult to be optimistic about the rest of the schedule. Still, if a miracle occurs and our defense begins actually to play defense--imagine the lift that would give to our offense. Not to mention well, us fans.

Field goals aren't even important enough to be spelled correctly
