This will be a very telling game about the leadership of this team. I expect to see a new offense and a new Dante.

In 3.5 seasons, we’ve always seen Lanning and his staff get brutally honest with themselves and correct/improve from week to week.
I’ve been pointing this out ad naseum, but in 2021 Lanning coordinated what is one of the greatest college defenses of all time. They got upset by Bama by 17 in the SEC Championship (basically a home game in Atlanta) and then they made adjustments and beat Bama by 15 in the Natty.
So, he’s shown a willingness to get back to improving. It’s one thing I love about him. He’s willing to admit that work needs to be done and he has that growth mindset.

The perfect test after our Indiana loss. East coast time zone game against a slightly below middle of the pack Big Ten team. Gotta win by multiple scores comfortably.

He references this example often as a time when he clearly realized that he needed to up the ante and as it has been pointed out,he has done it so let's hope it continues.bdkipe wrote: Sun Oct 12, 2025 3:15 pm In 3.5 seasons, we’ve always seen Lanning and his staff get brutally honest with themselves and correct/improve from week to week.

We know how loses sit with him. I imagine the Sunday 'go to the doctor' session was 'spirited' to say the least.

I want a win just so we can see the media team re-do “The Sopranos” intro for us on Ducks vs. Them.

That opening drive was a mess regardless of the fumble.
Nice job by our defensive backs of forcing a long FG out of Rutgers.
Hope our next drive is a TD.
