I would except that Oregon freaking State and TCU kind of showed us that is indeed the bar for this defense.

Yep... I expect 1 long score a game and a handful of 20+ yarders at this point.

As long as we don't lose i sort of hope we give up another. That way maybe UFM gets pissed enough to either make a scheme tweak or a personnel change (Wade).

Checking out the 60 minute version of the IU-Rutgers game and their offense concerns me a bit. A lot of quick accurate passes with a dose of misdirection and a mobile QB. Admittedly, Rutgers D is garbage, but it's the exact kind of offense that can be a problem for a defense that likes to miss tackles and occasionally gets lost.

I'm interested to see exactly how RU shut them out in the 2nd half.

Yep, IU will test the CBs and LBs more than the safeties downfield. Buckeye D-Line will do what they normally do, but IU knows that. They're already a quick, underneath passing team within 10 yards- it will only be more prevalent now.

My kingdom for LBs that can read and react to jump one and defend these (or safeties that can come up and take one).

First possession was a 3 and out after 3 runs with Scott.
Second possession, they moved the ball across the 50 but then had a couple throwaways leading to a punt.
3rd possession crossed the 50 before Scott fumbled.
4th possession had them down around the RU 25 until a 4th and 9 pass was picked in the end zone.

Defense doesn't look terrible either, although if Sitkowski could hit on a pass over 20 yards, that might be different. I expect to see an aggressive approach from iu mug like PSU did.

The game to watch is MSU. It shows you how they perform against what is the most similar to OSU level of athletes that they have seen all year.
