Is it possible we're recruiting linemen more adept at pass blocking because that's what DW wants and it's screwing up the run game?

I don't know if that's what the fan base wants. Personally, I loved 2013-2015 when we had incredible balance. At least that's how I remember it without going back and looking at the stats.

The 2014 offense was 7th. Besides that the best Warner has done is 60th I believe.

This year so far I think it's in the low 100s

I guess if I haven't convince you that's not all on Warner by now I'm never going to. Carry on.

I don’t think anyone here has said it’s completely Warner.

Yeah, we are up on the roof, but not same seats we had for Suns game. Different games. We were in the gondola for GSW game last year. Suns game we were 100 level, 20-some rows behind the hoop and got lucky and wound up sitting next to the Ulis family.

Not at a dig at you - but they put a family 20 rows behind the hoop? Huh.

I suspect 8-4 would get us a NYD bowl game against an Auburn, Kentucky, Missouri, Texas A&M, etc., right?

Without looking, seems like those are always the match-ups: a better-than-average Big Ten team vs a better-than-average SEC team.

Of course we have to win out. Trip to Lincoln ain't gonna be easy.

Yeah, I feel bad for the guys on defense. Our offense just never could support them this year for many reasons. Yesterday it was 7-6. Then our offense gave the game away.

To toughen up in case of a long dark post Dantonio period.

What would the o/u be if we get matched against Kentucky, Auburn or MissSt?
