Wisconsin Post Game Thread

I literally post stats weekly about Chinander improving every defense he has been a DC for but people like to ignore facts. This game didn't move the needle much on this season, still better defensively than last year in almost every category

Not to say Chinander is the ultimate answer, but find me an example of a team firing their DC in year 2 when their defense is better than the year before which is better than the year prior to that.

Yet. But by demanding we fire him you're saying he won't, or can't, when he's shown before he can, and has.

Plus he did it at UCF with a roster that had pro level talent, whereas there isn't a guy in our front seven who's going to get drafted.

See Chinander's resume from his UCF days.

They were ranked 93rd in 2017 with the #1 ranked O.  That hides a lot.  They also led the nation with 32 TO's...That also helps a lot.  They played USF/Memphis/Auburn that were good.  The other teams in the AAC and their OOC wasn't too stout.  13-0 is no joke, but let's not act as though he was going week in and week out with equal competition.  Odd that UCF fans were not sad to see him go.  Just like UConn fans laughed when we got Diaco.....Sometimes fans are not wrong.

Not a question for you, but as a whole.  Did we lose because of the D or the O couldn't close the deal...

Stats are probably similar for our other losses as well. We can't seem to stop or score enough...

And no reason we should ever lose putting up almost 500 yards of O.....  Last year we put up 520 and still got the L.....And lost by 17.

Please don't hop up and start flexing after you do your job until you look and see if the officials noticed you were holding your receiver and threw a flag.

This used to bother me greatly, but there has been so little to celebrate for these guys that I've become pretty tolerant of celebrating yourself.  Image is the  least of our problems

Poor defense puts more pressure on the offense and makes them try things they wouldn't have to if they thought the D could make a stop. It's not just poor tackling, it's that they're already in our secondary and poor tackling.

Offense being unable to put points on the board is critical. Almost 500 yards and we score 21 points total. Missed FG hurts but didn't seem as deflating as being stopped short on our three fourth down attempts. Really though Mazour was going to make it there at the end.

The first missed FG forced Frost to go for it from 4th and 4 in the 4th quarter. If Pickering makes that first FG, Frost probably attempts a short field goal to bring the score within 7. You seem to be arguing against the 4th down attempts because of the results of the plays.
