[NU Sports] The sky is falling...

[DPENDERG at aol.com]

I agree we should hardly be embarrassed by a 5-1 record, but  at the same 
time it was a very weak schedule.  The toughest part of the  season lies 
ahead.  The Cats in the recent years have risen to the  occasion in late season 
games against good, favored opponents.  It may well  happen again.  My 
principal concern (besides the senseless penalties) is  the underachieving 
offensive line, a veteran unit we thought would be one of our  main strengths this 
year.  Their contribution to the running game and pass  protection has been 
lackluster at best.  Can the OL turn it around in the  second half?  Yes, 
certainly possible.  In fact, absolutely  essential if we're to reach that 
8-4 plateau.

If  someone told me we would be 5-1 headed into the bye week I would have 
been  happy.

Furthermore if you told me our QB who is a 1st starter would be  extremely 
accurate, have a decent long ball, be mobile, and rarely make dumb  plays I 
would be estatic.  He is much more developed than Kafka at this  point in 
the season and he has another year of eligibilty.

Earth to all  the chicken littles, it was apparent we weren't challenging 
tOSU for king of  the big ten this year after seeing non-conference season.  
We still have  the opportunity to have a 8+ win regular season which is 
nothing to scoff  at.

It hurt a lot to give the game away at home, but it is not the end  of the  
world.
