msopher Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 You guys must really suck if you can only score 10 pts so far against this defense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed5120 Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 Our defense is on pace to give up over 660 yards. This might be the worst defense I've ever witnessed as an Akron fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skip-zip Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 I feel like we were keeping enough points off the board for Toledo early in the game to make a run at them. Then our offense does little after the first series. We HAVE to be able to score against this Toledo defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kreed5120 Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 We've already given up nearly 500 yards of offense. This is pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the iCoach teams were just abysmal, but is this defense worse than any of his teams? Overall, this version is slightly better since they have some semblance of an offense, but defensively, this is historically bad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still partial to 2003, but this year's WRs are the best the school has had. But it doesn't matter with this defense, which may have just given up the worst TD I have ever seen. First, the guy is open by 15 yards. Second, he bobbles it and barley holds on. 3. It didn't matter as he still ended up running past two defenders for an untouched TD, smh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1981 grad Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 I was wondering how somebody could get that wide open. We blitzed 6 guys and they had 6 blockers, nobody came close to the quarterback. The defender was reading the eyes of the quarterback and the safety was in the middle of the field. The receiver ran past the defender and was wide open. This defense cannot play with good teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give the offense a partial pass for last week and the poor conditions. They have disappointed this week, but when firing on all cylinders they have been explosive. Edit: kind of hard to play offense when you are always playing from behind and the defense knows you have to pass.

Blue & Gold Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 (edited) Well, our defense is so bad it's no longer even worth complaining about. Presently, bowl eligibility is my gauge for a successful season. This is Akron, after all. After a few seasons of bowl eligibility I may raise the bar to winning the MAC East and, one day (hopefully), to winning the MACC. But for me... for now... it's still simple bowl eligibility. I'm no longer expecting to beat OU. That means the season comes down to next Wednesday versus BUGS. It's do or die next Wednesday.

I heard Joe Dunn mention in pre-game that there might be some help with a player or two coming over to defense from the offense, but no mention of names or positions.

skip-zip Posted November 3, 2016 Report Share Posted November 3, 2016 We're probably too decimated up front to stop the run or rush the passer with any degree of success from here on out. We have to live with that. Here's how I see it: 1) Beat BG and go to a Bowl. I hate the idea of going to a Bowl Game as a .500 team, but it is what it is. 2) Take advantage of the 2 weeks off to give OU all we got. As much as we hated the late bye week, it's going to be a blessing. It shouldn't surprise anyone that we're going to have to outscore people. We were already in that situation before the season began. It's simply become more evident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
