I was really surprised it was 28-21 that late in the game. Glad they turned the ball over because not sure we would have made a stop.I don't think it was ever 28-21.

Defense has to get it together.They got it together in the fourth quarter. After what I saw in the past two weeks before this and that fourth quarter I have complete faith in our defense to keep playing at that level for the last two games of the regular season

Well thats exactly what MU did and the outcome was almost not in our favor. Love me some DJ because of his work ethic and all that, but having to rely on him for 39 carries is a bit much of a work load, and to boot the backup to DJ is spotty. Yesterday just seemed way to close for me, there was not another downfield threat on the field, and all that did was condense the field in MU's favor.I must not have been at the same game as you. We didn't seem to have real problems moving the ball in the air. GIover's reception that got us to the 4 was as good as any Peterson reception. The people who sat around me never worried that we wouldn't move the ball in the air because there was no good "number 2 receiver." A good number of our 3rd down conversions were in the air, as well.
On Defense, I thought what MU did could have been called for there late substitutions which in turn had our defense running around like headless chickens, (which we def don't need), trying to match up. For some reason we could not get off the field on 3rd downs. I know the sack was disallowed with a penalty(smh...I chortle audibly.), and other times they were able to complete them. Not sure if we blitzed him alot or relied on our front 4 to get there. In the fourth they did seem to get to him abit more and we seemed to cover a bit better on the back end. Not sure what happened with the RB#21 that allowed him to get off, that was totally unexpected, but hopefully we get it corrected and tcb next week, and with everyone healthy look forward to the business trip in Conway.
