Message: [QUOTE="huskeynut, post: 4694395, member: 750"] While most are sighting individual players having a killer instinct, you miss the point. Killer instinct must be a team characteristic. Every player on the team has to believe that they have the ability to deliver the knockout punch. They have to believe that when an opponent is down, you step on them and keep them down. No let up. No mercy. Run the opponent into the ground. You do what is needed to keep it going. It is winner takes all. Blaming any one player for a loss from last season is crazy, especially the Ohio State game. Injuries robbed the team of some of their best. It was a team that played with heart and courage despite the injuries. The team was physically and mentally exhausted. We will see if this year's team has a killer instinct. [/QUOTE]
