[NU Sports] At the end

[Dennis W. Brandt]

We just don't have it this year, and that disappoints me.  The offense is anemic.  We have not wide receivers that strike fear into defenses' hearts.  Markshausen is doing yeoman's work, but he isn't worthy of regular double-teaming.  It doesn't help that we have plum forgot how to run the ball.  The defense is adequate, but Wooten's injury-plagued year hurts.  Special teams, except for field goals, is average or worse.  There just isn't much to excite the crowd.

Talent, talent, talent.  We have more than in the past but still not nearly enough of it.  That bowl game is looking more and more a distant dream unless we have a BIG turnaround.  I can't tolerate another loss to Penn State.
