[NU Sports] I can live with losing a game ...

Not much to say except it was a mirror image of the PSU game;  we gave up a 
lot of yards, but for 2 and a half quarters, we got turnovers and  held Bucky 
to FG's.
   My concern is with our offensive line, but then again,  everyone is 
putting 8,9 guys in the box, daring us to beat them.  I  congratulate Brewer for at 
least trying the deep ball to thompson; maybe we'll  do better at home against 
Purdue and Michigan St.
   I think we all know that 6-6 is out of the picture, but I say  it's too 
early to start planning for next season.  In light of all our  knpwn problems, 
5-7 would be a good place to start.  This season reminds me  of 1999; RW's 
first season before the spread.  The defense would keep us in  games...to a point. 
 The offense struggles mightily in Kustok's first  season, just as we did in 
2002 with BB.
   This is where I'm at:  The last 3 years saw a better  grade of ball with a 
lot of big wins.  With all the changes over the last  few months, let's hope
 that 2007 sees the sustained success that RW had brought to the  program.
 
Still trusting the  Plan,             Eric
