Will is averaging 1 yard per attempt so by my math we need to try to get him about 200 attempts in the second half to stay in this thing.

Somehow I am optimistic we can come back and win this.  We are no way as terrible as the first half.  That said, this is tough to watch. I thought we were elevating the standard of our program and building on last year. Unfortunately, last year was nothing more than luck. 

At least we are now a basketball school.

Hard to argue with the math here

As long as we don’t give Avery a shake, bc that would be totally stupid

I’m with the coaches. we should keep our most talented player on offense on the bench and continue playing  a turnover prone QB who just orchestrated a drive that took us from a manageable deficit to one that’s very uncomfortable.

My favorite player also is the backup quarterback!

I worry they would just ruin him. We don't deserve such a talent. Who does he throw to?

I like it when we pin our ears back and get after it.  Also, I crap in Romaine earlier but he is getting better as the game progresses. For a true freshman, he is going to be a nasty dude in a couple years

Lettuce hope his progress continues.

JFC our defense is so bad. We only get stops when the other team drops the ball.  They're always leaving people open.

I have been chanting "Toss his salad" at the last few home games when we have a blitz ready to go.

He’s the only aspect of this defense that isn’t completely wilted

Lmfao, wtf are we doing? This is on the coaches.
If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

The difference between what this team was expected to be and what it is is staggering.   Biggest flop since 2001?

On the bright side not worried if Klein doesn’t stick around.

I'm going to suffer through this.  I haven't been this frustrated since the Marshall game 20 years ago......and that's saying a lot. I had high expectations for this team and they've wet the bed.

they passed all over us in the first half so why not just run it down our throats in the second. 

this entire staff, including the athletic director, needs to resign before getting on the plane back to manhattan.  if they don’t, i’m going to make some calls.


Cheesy Mustache QB might make an appearance.
