You'll get better next week against Nebraska.
We're losing games, we're losing our top recruits and all we talk about is when Scott Frost is coming back.

It surprises me that a major college program could be so completely unprepared for such incompetent QB-ing

Like a baseball team that starts the year with 5 untested starters and expects to be competitive.

Row the boat. Cheer SKI U MAH

Hoo HAH!

Feel like I was slimed by a snake oil used car salesman.

Barreiro and I seem to be the only two upset by the decision to kick the field goal with 2 minutes left when its 33-7
He said it perfectly
"I'd rather go down swinging, losing 33-7, then somehow feeling good about making it 33-10."
I just do not get the philosophy there.
You're encouraging your kids to get football-dumb there. Is this little league?
I'd expect every person on that sideline to revolt when he sent the FG unit out .... "WHAT???? Are you kidding me?"
I realize its reason number 12.342 on the to-do list here, but still ... start somewhere, and start by letting kids know you were embarrassed last night and better be trying to get better.
We know the kid can make a FG, Big whoop. We DON'T have a kid who can get a first down when we need it yet. Work on that.

PJ is transitioning from butterfly-chasing optimist, to snarky smart-ass frat boy.
Still talking a mile a minute.
Bristled when asked about kicking the FG with 2 minutes left.
Played the "Why would we do that?" card, because ya know, all of us who doubt him are idiots.
"our job is to score points, and we put three points on the board"
Ummm, getting 7, would have been an even better job, eh?
"so what if it was 33-14 instead of 33-10, who cares?"
Ummm, are you trying to make my point, or yours?
Keep talking louder and faster, coach .... keep talking.

Until they get a legitimate quarterback, they won't be a legitimate threat. I haven't seen a good one wearing maroon and gold in a long, long time.

Instead, they've been trying to beat Ohio State, Michigan and Wisconsin at their own game by running the ball, and don't have the athletes to get it done. At some point if you bang your head into a wall enough times, one would think you would say ouch.

Maybe that JC recruit formerly of U of Cali will be worth something Vic **&*&*? Or Redshirt Tanner Morgan. Or Brendan Armstrong if he recommits.

Not sure who that Croft was but damn. He was impressive. Where has that been all year?

Although, it needs to be said. His open field cuts make me cringe. I expect his ACL to explode every time he does. It's really awkward.

Although not technically bowl eligible after that win, I think we are bowl eligible because we always have one of the top graduation rates in the country - so we should get a bowl game even if we finish 5-7.

Well for one thing we weren't playing Nebraska every week, that's where he's been. Horrible run defense. Guys out of position, not defending their lanes. Beat one guy and there's nothing but wide open field ahead. It was ridiculous.
