How good is ULL?

[CNS]

Zacker, the north is still there, just a couple puds short.

[Cartierfor3]

so...we're settled on 2004 then?

yes, only we don't have a shitty north to try to scratch a few wins out of.

Meh. ISU, KU, WVU are all worse than us and probably Tech too.

Man oh man wouldn't it be sweet to be able to have the buffs and tigers and corn this year to pad the win column.

No, the scary thing is that they aren't worse than us.  And tech is in no way worse than us either.

We have (again) gone from fighting for championships to fighting for the cellar.  It's amazing.  Look at our goddamn roster.  It's absurdly awful.  There are no answers on it. 

[catzacker]

Look, just getting better at the OL will not solve anything.  Against shitty teams?  yes.  Well, we face one of them this year - Umass.  For the remaining teams, we're probably going to have to get a defense that doesn't resemble the vagina of a 60 year old porn star.

so not exactly 2004? now I'm just confused.

not trying to be funny. trying to figure out exactly what year it is so I can prepare myself for the inevitable.

[yoga-like_abana]

It feels oddly enough like every other year besides the past two because of zackers posts.. its like an old worn out broken record

[chum1]

The problem with zacker posts is that things never turn out nearly as bad as he forecasts.

i'm not sure if that's a problem.

I sat right beside him in 2004 at Memorial stadium and the next 6 years turned out almost exactly like he predicted.

zacker, everything is fine, our personnel is fine, everything is fine.  we lost to an FCS school, but don't worry, they were a really good FCS school

pfft, the big 12 is incredibly awful this year.

nowhere near as awful as the north was that year. 

[Pete]

I think we will win 4 games this year, and I feel like I am being overly optimistic.

He just said that he didn't expect the past two years to be so good.  No one did. 

[Cire]

Offense has a better potential than in 04. 

the whole drop back and fling it around won't work, the oline isn't built for that.

remember when Dylan (rip) came out against OU in 04 (we were 2-3 at that point, with losses to Fresno, A&M, and KU) and we were flinging it around the yard?  man, for like a half we had hope.

Ya, no question about that

[Pett]

Sams' WR buddy from high school will rip us up. Probably is upset we don't start #Life

Zacker is the opposite of a homer, consistently pumping gloom instead of sunshine.  You know what you're going to get before you read.  So, what's the point?

meh.  I throw in some sunshine every once in a while.  when it's deserved. 

I mean, there is the real possibility that this team begins to look more like the '11 team (i.e. offense playing keep away to make up for the shitty defense).  But that would require a change at QB and the OL not being awful.  Those things can happen. 

But that defense.  woof.  there's really no hope for it when it gets on the field.

I need to rewatch it, but I agree that the offense can get a lot better, even with Waters at QB. I don't recall a lot of 2 back stuff (under center or shotgun/pistol) and honestly that is when Hubert is at his best. We asked him to be an outside zone back, and he doesn't have the shiftiness to do that. If you think back to last year his best play is attacking in zone lead/power, attacking off of zone read, or some power sweep plays off of zone read action. Our running game seemed to feature a lot of one back/gun zone and it failed.
