Nope.
Iowa has done it twice in the last 4 years, including #1 in 2022.

Okay, here's your hint:  the program is pretty non-descript, but has consistently produced very productive D-linemen the past 10-15 years.

Wisconsin's done it the past 2 years.
Clemson only ini 2020.

I just looked it up and saw that UW was top 5 among P5 during the four years. Or are including G5 in the overall rank?

I'm sorry, I used ypc average, not overall yards per game allowed.  I should have specified that.

Boooooo!!!!

Nah, that surprises me.  I knew the last couple of years they have had really good defenses.  Wouldn’t have ever guessed top 5 rush defense 4 years in a row.

Pitt plays that old MSU style.

In theory it's a base cover-4, but they can trigger both safeties up into run support pretty quick, which makes for a high-risk, high-reward pass game and some good run defenses.

Wisconsin about halfway to blowing the last bit of a slim at-large hope. 

Just fumbling balls, missing shots, getting roasted on defense. (Reffing isn't the cause, but also, just awful)
