[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 180478, member: 2299"] I disagree. If this were just the ND game I might buy it but not two weeks in a row. My speculation is the following. I think Johnson feared exactly what you described. In an effort to prevent that harped on the offense not being as good as they think. Now, when the offense has started struggling in games, they start to believe that and lose confidence in themselves. I don't think our poor performances offensively have been a result of overconfidence. I think it's been a product, at least partially, of losing confidence when things aren't going well. If it were just reading press clippings I don't think our defense would be playing this well. Even when the defense struggled early on they regrouped and started playing better. The offense didn't. I don't think anyone was afraid of the defense getting big heads, because while they made big plays, they were not great last year. So nobody was trying to keep their ego in check. Again, entirely conjecture, but that's my impression. When it comes to coaches, I feel like Johnson, at least, has his own separate issues. But I think they're the same issues he's had since coming here, and sometimes they come back to bite us and some times they don't. [/QUOTE]
