They dominated both games. To be fair, Wisner also played his best game yet against aggie.
We lost Banks, Majors, Conner, and Williams (plus Helm at TE). That's a lot of veteran starting experience in your OL and TE rooms. That's not an excuse for how poorly our interior OL is playing right now but it helps explain the lack of "domination" at this point. Then you add in losing Blue's homerun ability out of the backfield as a safety net. Practice reps only get you so far and you never know what you truly have until the season gets going. I think we'll see steady improvement throughout the year. If we don't, then I'll start to panic haha
Most defenses a team faces throughout the year aren't "elite". You'll get one or two games a year (maybe). Nonetheless, aggie's DL was, in fact, elite last year (or as close as it gets) and we ran the ball down their throats. Michigan DL had Graham and Grant (both first rounders), along with Stewart (3rd rounder). I'd say that's another stacked DL. We lost 4 OL starters who are all on NFL rosters this year. Rebuilding an OL after that isn't easy.
