Not exactly. We did not play down to Illinois level. Fact of the matter is they took advantage of a weakness on our team, the second CB. Vaughns and Bridges are not the answer. Until they figure out how to cover we will continue to give up the long ball.
I don't buy the playing down to anyone's level in any game so far. We just have given up yards but not many points. The name of the game is keep the other team from scoring and out score them. So they fact Mizzou has done a decent job of this, outside of the Illinois game, is great. The bad part is a better team will score if they are getting the yardage that is being gained by these lessor teams.
