The last 5 games the D has given up an average of 42 pts. This is the worst stretch EVER by an ND team. It could have been even more if NW had not had the dropsies. The D line put little pressure on the QB. They missed tackles, took bad angles and were out of position all game. I could go on and on but won’t. They are also getting worse each week.

However, the number of wide open or at least open Northwestern receivers that simply dropped passes was not good. Maybe it was the cold; maybe it was the receivers; but it was a serious problem.
