It’s the O line. In year 8 of Campbell we have exactly 0. ZERO!!! Offensive lineman play a snap in the NFL. Got blown up by a MAC team today. We have starting NFL skill position players all across the NFL. We haven’t broken 100 yards rushing in the past two games and honestly it wasn’t close. Our RB’s are getting blown up behind the line. We need a large reset.
Most glaring missing piece
- Thread starter gocy444
- Start date
Simmons has no business playing another snap in an ISU uniform, yet he trots out there every single week. If that isn’t a glaring reflection of how this staff has failed to recruit and develop offensive line, I don’t know what is
23 rushes when you know your line sucks and you’ve had success throwing the ball is coaching malpractice.
Jesus, Matt, read the damn room.

I'm not sure who I was more disappointed in: the O-Line or the Defensive Front 6?
Probably the O-Line due to more experience, but our LBs were not great and the D-Line couldn't cover them. The QB scrambles on different drives drove me nuts.

If i'm Nate like why did he even take the job if the job comes with permanent training wheels. D Coordinators in the Big 12 have to be licking their chops to play us.
It’s the easiest scout in the league by a large margin.
Our D line should be dominated when you continually rush 3. We don’t start to bring extra until 2nd half
Yeah, but he’s been worse than Manning. Took him 3 quarters to realize they were in run blitz.
I'm losing track of who it is but it's not Simmons, but #63 or 68 get shoved back right off the snap often. If that happens, the play is basically over.
I’m not sure about that… at least against Ohio. Having said that… the D did more than enough to easily win this game.
I know our D did enough but staying 3 man front allowed a lot of yardage. To be clear I don’t think the D is the problem it’s the O.
The bigges thing people forget when we make exsues for offense in saying its young... the D line is babies. Literally. TO is a sophmore. Orange is a sophomore. Petersen's been here but not played. Bacon is a former walk on. Like, they're uber young defensively. And yet, contributing at a much much higher level.
As a former OL and OL coach I will say this...
its an incredibly tough position to play when the defense has to defend 15 yards out of a football field. That said they are no where close to being good enough
