Apples and oranges though. Saban to my knowledge didn't have many if any long term staff members
Lol
My guess is, ALL of it.
MR is showing continuity, in fairness to the players, to his coaches and hopefully here for a long time.
I'm betting Washington was hoping the same

Something tells me his defense isn’t going to look near as good in the new BIG. Iowa won’t be playing patsies every Saturday anymore. That defense can be had when it runs into a good, to very good offense. This is the same reason why I caution about the Nebraska defense. Nebraska played 2 good offenses, and both lit it up.
I would say our tackles weren't playing near as good then, our LBs were on the learning curve as well.
There was a let down against Michigan too.
Just exercise caution. While the D was much improved, this league was awful in 2023. Just some bad offense in the BIG, almost the entire confrence, less 2 teams.
I was surprised to find illinois 36th in passing last year. Lack of great qb play and those defenses made the Big last year.
Michigan finished 69th in total offense for instance, behind Illinois.
Having the right combo of power run game, good qb play and a stout defense will win you nattys

Michigan, had a very good offense when they wanted to use it. They preferred to keep things simple and beat teams with good defense, plus the BIG sucked, and they knew it.
I assume Michigan, but who was the 2nd good offense?
Colorado, over 500 yards, 36 points.
To be fair, second game for the defense and not much take on CU. I don’t think they have the same yardage or point total had we played them later in the year.
