Lest I be wrong we had the same players the last third of the season as we did the first third. We got different coaching from our de facto OC and different schemes from our DC.
As seasoned MAC fans know, the difference between 8 - 4 and say 5 - 7 isn't much. Maybe new schemes which turned a probable 'L" into a "W".
Our DC sucked
And it wasn't him who wanted to change it
Creighton finally got sick of that stupid 4-2-5
It has handicapped us for years and Creighton finally got sick of it
If you want some evidence how stupid his defense was here you go
Jose Ramirez is an absolute BEAST
But
He didn't record a sack until week 5
Guess what happened in week 5 also?
That was the week Creighton MANDATED that our Defense be switched
This idiot was not able to get an ALL-AMERICAN a sack with his useless and crappy schemes
He is lucky Creighton was friends with him and let him finish out his contact
On another note I wanted to say something about Creighton
The biggest thing I saw this year was Creighton acting instead of standing on the sidelines
First he demanded that we switch our defense
Secondly, he realized his play calling was lackluster to say the least and handed that duty to Mike Piatkowski
He grew and thank God he did
It was the only reason we played in a bowl game
