I'm with you. In my opinion, the O has hurt us as much or more in the last two losses especially than the D. Watching both games (OU and TCU) with my 8 year old son, I keep telling him if the O can't get going and score the D wont be able to hold them off much longer....and it happened just as I said. I see a young, average D with potential and talent absolutely getting strung out over the first half to 3/4 of games until they tire, show their youth or the opposing teams O figures them out.
The D played first 2-3 quarters against TCU and OU to win if O could have been better.
There are more problems than this and I agree we have coaching, scheme, injury and motivation issues...but the O is a very glaring problem right now.
Dont get it twisted the D has plenty of issues, too.
Honestly, nothing looks right. And I'd say there is definitely something going on behind the scenes. The players body language etc tells the tale.
