I'm going to steal steve dave's tweet, but have any of you dumbasses never watched a LHC LHC LHC Bill Snyder early non-con game? they always start out boring and awful and then explode in the end.

That's not true at all. In the DoD we dominated start to finish.
False, we had several close calls during the DoD including 23-20 vs Ohio in '97. That was a real shitty game.
Also whomever asked about why the secondary was getting torched, the defense also played vanilla, prolly tough to see with whatever shitty streaming you all had to deal with. The corners played a huge cushion and gave them all of those slants they were hitting. Chapman seemed like he got beat every play hcause they refused to throw to the other side of the field.
You're right. They didn't want to throw at Malone at all, and he still got a pick, so that should say something.
I thought I saw that the DL wasn't really bull rushing as much as they were maintaining gap assignments, but I could be wrong. I was in and out most of the first three quarters. They didn't look like they played great, but there was no blitzing, no stunting, etc.
