Tuesday Morning Quarterback: Idaho's Defense Isn't Elite
After a dismal 49-33 loss, the Vandal defense must address numerous issues heading into the rest of the season.
I previously thought the Idaho defense was one of the best in the Big Sky and could be a top unit in the FCS, but I now revoke those statements.
- The defense has struggled over the past couple of weeks, particularly against Northern Colorado.
- This weakness could lead the Vandals to drop out of the rankings and miss the playoffs entirely.
The defense is a weak point for the Vandals.
Going into the game against the Bears, the Vandals were 19.5-point favorites, highlighting the unexpected nature of their loss.
