so we losing this one and SMU is a loss.. so our best case scenario is 6-6. 50/50 against Stanford. I think we'll play with some energy at least so we might have a shot.

only Wilcox could turn a potential 10 win season, program energy and momentum into this **** fest.

We burned our timeout, too. D needed a rest I guess.

Burned two time outs on D only to give up a conversion anyway. Wilcox ball!

In a season of disappointment, this so far is the worst. Bad coaching. Worse effort.

Mendoza has thrown 2 ints and had a near int.
I did not see the first int.
If merriweather makes an effort to catch the ball perhaps the 2nd int doesn't occur.
The near int was a ball deflected at the LOS.
Now down 20 I expect the D to tee off on him.

I like the outside toss, but two missed blocks on the perimeter completely torpedoed the effort.

Why a toss to the short side?

Terrible home losses are just way too common under this regime. This is shaping up to be another. No wonder we can't sell tickets.

Under normal circumstances, yes. By the standards of this game, any pass that isn't picked off is a relief.

I predicted a loss against Syracuse but not a blowout. Problem with Syracuse is they throw so many plays at teams they wear them out. Syracuse seems to have no fear of going for it on 4th down.

The most annoying loss will be Florida State, because they are nothing close to a competitive team, and they have the name brand and tried to keep us out of the conference. So on an emotional level, that win would have been the most satisfying.

This game is by far the worst preparation and effort.

27-7 … but if we win the middle eight we can close the gap quickly.
Score before halftime and not let Syracuse score / then we get the ball to start the half. So if we score two touchdowns it could be 27-21 …


Yeah, all we have to is do the exact opposite of what we've done all game …

Terrible losses generally. Pitt and FSU were away.

Because teams tend to slant toward the field

Think we'll cover the spread?

Only have to win by 10.

The school doesn't care. The coaches don't care. The players don't care anymore because nobody else does. Why should anyone pay to watch that?

On the bright side, losing here reduces the chances of a JW extension.

It's just a shame that we lose with all this talent, instead of years ago when going winless would have actually led to positive change.

Really wish Hunter would have just dived up field for the first down. It looked closer than it should have been,

*** we run up the middle with 1 min left and 1 TO? Why? Are we playing for a FG here?

We deserve to miss the FG and get blown out. Dog **** playcalling here. I feel bad for the players, but I'm sorry, we deserve to lose out from here on out. We need to get rid of this coaching staff badly.

If you were facing a defense that only stops 20% of their opponents' 4th down plays, you would also have no fear.
