I knew our defense was good, but I didn't think we would be tied for the best pass D in the nation. I think this has to do a lot with Mattison/Mallory and also BIG TENNNNNNN. I was nervous about our pass D after Countess went out, but Taylor has really stepped up and is a pleasant surprise.
Gibson minus all the points.
I don't know how to format this chart to make it fit. Sorry for blocking the diary section.

are heavily skewed by the first two games of the season. Since that point the rush defense has been very stingy, so at least in Big Ten play that has not been the case.
