Well, the last few years, we've been a decent
one-dimensional defense. We have been trying to take
the run game away to make an opponent one-dimensional.
When balanced teams exploit that (Michigan?), then we
get in trouble.

Definitely - McGarrigle had two sacks (sacks?! never
thought I'd see that from NU:) ) and that final pick
was partially the result of pressure in the end zone
from the D-line. One more second and we'd have had a
safety, so Stocco had to throw.

Amen to that.:)
