What is driving the lack of intensity the last few weeks? It takes a few punches for the team to show up. Is Rhule grinding them out too hard in practice? Do they not believe in themselves? Do they not buy into coaching? Something is amiss and hopefully Rhule can work to identify and fix the issue. But if you look back...
Illinois - Neb starts with ball. 5 play drive including Punt. Illinois - scores 7 immediately.
Purdue - (do Oklahoma drill pre-game because team is so flat). Statistically we are okay this game but special teams/red zone execution. Defense is top notch.
Rutgers - 10 play opening drive for offense. PUNT BLOCK. (Key defensive stop after giving them an 8 play drive)
Indiana - (do Oklahoma drill pre-game because team is so flat.) game over instantly due to crap special teams, defense and offense.
Ohio State- start with ball, sack/fumble then crappy punt. Massive defensive stop on 4th and 1 by defense.
UCLA- give up 14 play drive to start. Tied for their longest drive (play wise) of the year. Neb: first play is a 4 yard run. Next 6 plays go for 0 or 1 yards. Fortunately UCLA gives us a boneheaded unsportsmanlike to extend the drive.
Just awful execution. Every game the offense is bad. The defense alternates. And most games includes a special teams gaff.
The lack of preparedness and the lack of intensity is abysmal...what do we need to do to fix it?
