TCU Game Today

[MadCat]

I don’t think we’re even a good measuring stick this year.

It will be interesting to see what the chemistry of this team does over the next 6 games. They're staring in the face of a 4 and 8 or 5 and 7 year.

This is Snyder’s 2004 team all over again.

At least I got a CFS out of this.

Can I get some inside sources on why those birds were swarming the stadium

Buzzards.  They saw Bill

I was thinking this but I didn't want to say it out loud. 2004 was a v painful season as a fan

Hopefully

They are migrating south for the winter, they seemed to come with the rain, completely gone in the sun. My only guess is that they were moving with/against the weather system.

I know it's bad when you and _fan are feeling it.

Studies show birds attracted to bright light in migration.   

The twin tower Memorial light spires attract millions of birds, they can see them on radar way up in the light. 

Just an FYI

Scientists are concerned about light pollution impacting migration.

Oh, the game sucked

I would like to think we can beat ku, but I have to admit I'm extremely concerned about our ability to do so.

This was just awful offense. Stats from the game until it was over after TCU scored to go up 26-6.



Only the 55-0 shut out to OU in 15 and the 17-3 loss to NU in 09 are worse offensive performances in Snyder 2.0.

I weirdly must have all but blocked that 55-0 game out of my mind. I know it happened, and I know I watched it, but I don't remember a single thing about it except for the score. So I did some Googling, and, well, not that this is a surprise, but Dimel's offensive gameplanning has been the subject of ridicule for quite a while now.

It was a nightmare performance, but Snyder took responsibility. Oklahoma’s defense entered the game ranked 95th nationally against the run, allowing an average of more than 190 rushing yards. Texas hammered OU on the ground. Many expected K-State to exploit the same weakness. Instead, it tried to throw on its first six plays.

“I am not a game planner, but if you saw the game last week I would have run the ball,” OU defensive end Matt Dimon said. “That is what we thought they were going to do, but they came out slinging it, they had the wind. I didn’t get a run block until the eighth or ninth play. It was surprising, but I’ll take what they give us.”

K-State went three-and-out on its first two drives and trailed 14-0 before it attempted a run.

“That is what the coaches thought we could do,” Snyder said. “So that is what we tried to do.”

This is Snyder’s 2004 team all over again.

That's exactly how I thought after leaving this game.  2004 and 2005 was running through my head on the drive home.

[chum1]

In other words, it's one of Snyder's worst teams.

That's from NCAA stat guide. I thought there was a clause for fumbles too.. player A fumbles player B recovers, but I can't find it.

I believe that this season is what you will get from a Sean Snyder coached team.  I wanted to give Sean a chance, and I think we have. 

I believe Sean ran things in the off season and early regular season while his Dad was in cancer treatment and recovering, and we would be dumb to believe otherwise, and that means Sean had his shot.  He had a shot with a VERY experienced staff, and team that everyone thought had enough parts to win.

Are we to expect BETTER results if Sean has a less experienced staff and different under-recruited players in the future?  I just don’t see it.

I think what you get from Sean is a very Iowa-Statey type team that gives nice tuck quotes and try hard chart gold stars. 

Give your money to the engineering department, guys.  Football is joining basketball as a waste of time and money.
