IU Coach "Embarrased" over defense's performance

I noticed this about IU's defense also. They almost looked as if they didn't want to be there. Very strange. Very odd, but poor effort from some of them. In some ways, they looked like they expected to lose. Kudos to the MG for taking full advantage.

Yeah...those SB defenses are WEAK!!!!

Whenever North Texas loses, it's because North Texas is bad. Whenever North Texas wins, it's because the opponent is bad.

Just win baby.

GO MEAN GREEN

We perpetuate the feelings of no respect from the outside world by even posting a story like this. Most of IU's opportunities came from our mistakes. NT was clearly the dominant team in this game. I just watched my taped version of Tulsa vs. Boise. It gets MUCH tougher this week.

UNT won because they manhandled IU at the line of scrimmage. The MG played hard and took IU out of the game physically. Whatever contributed to it is of no consequence--I agree.

From the end zone, the IU kick returners looked as if they didn't want to be there. Little energy, emotion. Jogged out and took their place.

Most kick returners you see jumping around and energetic before the kick. These guys just kind of stood there and waited for the kick. Our wedge buster - Marshall, #15 - blew up their kick return blocking all night long.

When's the last time we said something like that about our lines?

This coaching staff is doing a good job. Indiana was being coached by a former OU coordinator, with plenty of skins on the wall as well. McCarney outcoached him.

Marshall went hard every single time. The last kick, he wound up injured. But, as he was wincing in pain, they taped him up heavily... he was ready to go back in. If all of our walk-ons are as tough as this dude, I'm happy to have them!

I noticed Marshall all night long...he made two tackles just by slamming his blocker into the returner...he played extremely well. I'm sure he was recognized in the film room.

Marshall played a VERY excellent game. Kid is nasty on kickoff team!

Long time. More please.
