[NU Sports] Moe Schwartz, where art thou?

[Dennis W. Brandt]

The NU defense played with heart, and I can firmly state that there is 
improvement over last season.  We got little in the way of pass rush, but 
the Cats D played well enough to win until they flat ran out of gas.  That 
said, I'm not sure there were as good defensively as the Penn State offense 
was weak at quarterback.

But oh!  Our offense.  Or shall I say "inoffense?"   There is nothing wrong 
with it that wouldn't be substantially cured by sneaking Brett Basanez back 
in as a freshman and calling him Moe Schwartz.  (Non one would ever know. 
Right?)  Tyrell Sutton is now a wasted resource because we cannot pass the 
ball even a little bit.  We're neither talented enough for a run only 
offense nor does the spread lend itself to that.  Nonetheless, we'd better 
try.  Poor Andrew Brewer looked wide-eyed lost out there against one of the 
best defenses in the Big 10, and it won't get much easier against Wisconsin. 
I expected a drop-off this season at quarterback, just not a plunge into the 
Grand Canyon.
