Man, you are absolutely cooking with this take, and as a Wolverines fan who loves tough defense, it's painful to watch. You nailed it, the scheme is the cancer. We see it from the outside looking in, you bring in all these athletes and then handcuff them with a. That 3-3-5 should be about creating chaos, not just occupying space. If your defensive line isn't penetrating and your linebackers are reading instead of attacking, you're just a tackling dummy for these Big 12 offenses. It's like they're playing not to get beat deep, so they just get methodically diced up all the way down the field. That red zone number is a fireable offense by itself. You can't win giving up touchdowns almost every time someone gets inside the 20. We preach an identity here, you know what we're about on defense. The portal gives you a chanec to fix talent fast, but it can't fix a broken philosophy. That has to come from the top, and it has to be a total commitment to being the aggressor.
