The first step is admitting there's a problem. Everyone should realize by now KF doesn't view a bad offense as a problem.
"If we shut them out our 3 points would have been enough".
While technically I agree and we will chase perfection, our defense is within the vicinity of greatness and our offense is not even close to p5 level. Unless our defense holds everyone, including Wisconsin to 17 or under AND our offense puts up 30 plus on everyone, you are not going to convince anybody. Our offense is worse than Illinois.
Like I said outside of putting up 40 on Wisconsin and possibly a bowl opponent, this offense doesn't stand a chance of being respected.
Purdue? MN put 38 on them.
Northwestern? MSU put up 31 on them.
I'm not even talking about Wisconsin, because we don't belong in the same conversation as them.
Minnesota? Purdue put up 31 and Georgia southern put up 32.
Illinois? Nebraska put up 42.
Nebraska? Illinois put up 38 and Minnesota put up 34.
If you notice I didn't put the beat downs the top teams put on anyone. Just avg offenses putting up 30 plus on everyone (except Wisconsin) left on our schedule.
