Blue Raider defense ready for redemption under Shafer

"Shafer is most-known for the work he did with the Syracuse Orange defense. In his first season, he helped transform a unit that ranked 101st in total defense in 2009 to the seventh-ranked defense in 2010."

If Shafer can get the Blue Raider defense into the top 20 then the team will be ranked top 20

I would take a top 50 D!

No kidding. At this point, average is a huge improvement. So anything 60 or better would be huge.

MT doesn't need a defense ranked in the top 20 to have a 9-10 win season. They need a defense to keep teams under 30 points. Do that, keep lil' Stock healthy, and the Blue Raiders can win 9-10 games

If we had a top 50 defense last year, we would have won at least 10 games or more. Maybe more. We had WKU and let them back in the game. That's 9 and would have beaten UTSA and Marshall.
