Some of us just love our school regardless of the outcomes. Still get angry and frustrated but it's like being a Chicago Cubs fan. You always have hope for next year. It's a sickness 🤕

I love college football and would never want us to drop the sport. I'll go to every home game because it's my school but I think it's time to shut down the football NIL and put it all into the basketball program. Play with whatever kids you can get that want a college education. I'll support them but in the new world of college athletics, basketball is the best chance to compete with the power 5 programs. Once again...it ain't easy being green!

So, what would have happened if we played Oregon State the first game of the year? Same result. They are just on another level than we are talent wise.

Not having our top 3 running backs hasn't helped. Offensive line has been disappointing.

Yet before our bye week he was leading the country in passing yards. Nobody ran him off. He had a bad day against the number one scoring defense.

As long as Hodge is here, if you don't work hard on the defensive end, you won't play much so I think we will continue to be a defense first squad. We seem to have more depth so I would like to see us press a little more this year and create easy baskets off turnovers.

My fear is even if we load the box we can't tackle. If they go with the backup QB, we may have a shot.

I would have liked to see one more good mid major at our place but our conference home schedule will be plenty tough and some great matchups.

Chandler Morris is currently ranked FIRST in the country in passing yards! He is over 100 yards ahead of Cam Ward. DT Sheffield is ranked 18th in the country in receiving yards! When was the last time we had the top passing QB in the country this far into the season? Can't remember if Mason Fine was ever ranked first. If we can just keep him healthy the rest of the way, he has a great chance to finish the year number one. None of the teams we have left on the schedule are great defensively and we all know that we have to score a ton of points to make up for the defense. Should be fun to watch.

I hate the way the NCAA lets NIL run with no rules or regulations. Unfortunately, until the system changes or we find some big money donors, our programs in football and basketball will be on a year to year basis. We won't be able to keep talented athletes and will constantly have to try to grab players that couldn't play at power 5 schools or are D2 players wanting to play up. This is not a recipe for sustainable success against bigger programs with $$$$. Army and Navy are the exceptions this year and I think it is great what they have been able to do but you see what Notre Dame did to the Midshipmen this past weekend. Coaching can take you only so far. UTSA had Harris for 8 years and now they are back in the bottom of the conference. I want us to win every game, but I understand that it isn't a level playing field right now.

Is there a limit on the number of these secret scrimmages' teams are allowed to play? Home opener is a week from tomorrow.

We're not going to beat Army but if we can keep Morris from getting killed we will win our last three games and go 8-4. After last season, that is progress. Those of you who will cry that we didn't beat a winning team seem to forget that we only won 5 games last year and lost 77 players. We need to make a change at defensive coordinator next year and go after some size on that side of the ball. Not sure what people expected going into this season but I think 8-4 would be a damn good season. Who knows how many of our offensive players will leave in the portal. The playing field isn't level. Just get through the Army game healthy. UTSA is playing better. That will be the most important game of our season.

Prayers to USF program and his family. Bright rising star in the coaching field taken way to soon.

Just curious. Do UT fans troll on the Houston fan board?

Do the women play "secret scrimmages"? I have never heard any mention of them. Can't wait to see both the men's and women's teams play. Definitely going to need a roster to tell who all the new faces are.
