I don't know much about them so I'm gonna start off with a little numbers break down. I don't think their record really shows how good they are. While they are 6-3, their opponents combined record so far is 31-48, and that is with a 9-1 Michigan State on there. Their non conference record, where they got their 4 wins from is 12-25...with one of those teams being a 5-5 I-AA team. They beat a 2-7 Vanderbilt team by just 2 points. They beat a 3-6 Central Michigan team by just 5 points. They beat a 1-9 Minnesota team by just 1 point. They beat a 4-5 Purdue team by just 3 points and a 4-5 Indiana team by just 3 points. Obviously that all means nothing when the game starts but it looks as though they have struggled with some really bad teams.
Although Persa is a good QB, his numbers have dropped significantly as he has entered big ten play. He is known as being a dual threat QB, but yet has only a 3.2 YPC average.
Trumpy seems to be a non factor in their offense....or atleast not a threat. He has rushed over 100 yards once this year...but other than that game usually gets 40-50 yards per game.
Jeremy Ebert seems to be a big playmaker at receiver looks like he puts up consistent games each week. Now at almost 800 yards and 7 TDs on the year.
These are all just statistical views. They give up 22 points/game on defense. Gave up 28 in the second half to Penn State last week. Gave up 28 to Minnesota who is averaging 21 on the year. Also 25 to Central Michigan who is scoring just 22 a game.
This is all entirely statistical views though. Does anyone know much else about them?
