It's funny that we're headed to Game 8 and we're still saying that the next game will tell us where we are at.Now we turn our attention to UNI at home this week. Suddenly, they are in the mix as they are 3-1 in MVFC. So we'll get a good measure of where we are at
Ok I get it. We know we're somewhere in the middle and N. Iowa is close by, so this game does provide insight as to where we stand in the pecking order. Even so, it only to tells us where we are that day. Most of us would consider UNI better than Mo. St., but does a victory over UNI mean that we will win down at Mo. St.? Nobody can guarantee that. Every week is a new season.
Also, it's getting fashionable to say that our defense has now been exposed and it isn't any good. The defense has played well in 5 of 7 games. I know that those efforts came against weaker teams but 5 games in not an insignificant portion of the schedule. We've stopped weaker offenses and failed to stop the potent offenses. That's what most teams do.
