Against who again? Miami was much better than anything we saw during that stretch.

A 6-6 MAC team is better than UTEP or UTSA?   …be careful how you answer that last one.   Heck, we played Liberty closer than MiOH!

I think I’m ready to move on. It’s not that we lost; it’s that it wasn’t even competitive against a dog of a team. That’s unforgivable.

This, they dared us to throw and we couldn’t.  Switch QBs and we win by 3 scores.

This shows us 2 things, our coach can’t solve   the QB room, and coaches in CUSA aren’t that good.

 

 

 

Sure. While we sat in 12 personnel. Then when we got out of 12, they just manned us. We didn't commit to the run regardless of how you chop it. 

We passed it 3 times in a row on their 14 yard line down 3..turnover on downs. This was 1st half. That. Is. Dumb. Football.

UTEP, yes. UTSA we took advantage and handled the weather, they choked.

We got beat soundly but not jaw dropping bad giving up 40 points and/or not scoring double digits.  I think that was the worse case scenario imo.  If we were going to lose I wanted to go down to the last drive of the game or a blowout to force Wren to make a move.  What a waste of time for the Mean Green fans who went to Frisco.  I really feel bad for them.  I think everyone justifiably thought we would be competitive; a fourth quarter game trailing by 5 at the most.

I think anyone that watched the game is fully aware of how badly we were beaten. I really thought we were going to throttle them. There was a bizarre lack of intensity this afternoon.

UTEP is nothing to write home about and nutsak had nothing to play for in the elements. We caught them at an emotional letdown.

Yes, pile on and thrash the little success this team had.  

Anyone who saw the game, knows how bad NT played.

So UTSA and all the other teams we beat down the stretch weren’t doing that?   Boy, don’t they feel stupid!

Nope.   Not to that level.  They probably should have though.   We averaged 2.8 yds per carry today.

This definitely wasn’t the gist I was getting from many on here.   But if so, fair enough.

I think the voices calling for Seth’s (in every thread no matter the subject) were so loud that all nuanced positions were drowned out. There were a couple of SL defenders that responded each time ad nauseum but my impression is that most were pragmatic that the firing had become unlikely and yelling about how unimpressive the wins were was unproductive. Others were in wait and see mode, preferring to evaluate the bowl result before deciding. Personally I thought Wren had likely already decided to keep him and the bowl was unlikely to change that. I still assume that, although I would probably prefer to move on and rebuild with a new coach and QB.

Don’t feel sorry for me for making the 2 hour drive to Frisco.  My buddy and I enjoyed our $12.50 watered down beers and $11 brisket nachos😁 Wish I could have made the tailgating, but sometimes life gets in the way.  Though we lost, I’m still glad I went.

As for the game:  1) We were definitely without fire or emotion.  I felt the stadium in general lacked emotion.  It was very weird. 2) Our QB play is, um, uh…not very good. 3) I tend to think not having Torrey didn’t make a huge difference.  4) The undisciplined play that was basically absent during the winning streak reared it’s ugly head. (More on that later) 5) I don’t feel as though we were dominated as some have expressed.  If we score, which we should have, with 9 minutes left, we cut the lead to 6 and we would have had momentum.

Someone please correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe that 3 of Miami’s scoring drives were aided by 15 yard penalties that I would classify as “undisciplined.”  The Faulkner late hit out of bounds, one Murphy bumping the ref (or whatever he did) after the other late hit the QB, and one other that I can’t recall that I believe happened in the 2nd quarter (this penalty may have been a facemask, which I don’t generally consider undisciplined).  I felt all of those were huge penalties that really benefited Miami.

And I’ll end with a little bad news for most of us:  SL will be back.  

Merry Christmas

      Mensah Getting $8 Million NIL Deal

      You got it dumbass. Seriously, let’s look at the two situations without inserting race since you felt the need. Mensah is a RS Freshmen that entered the portal stating his price. He didn’t get a degree from Tulane and probably cleared out some basics while there. Mensah may be a great student and may live up to his last name, but his academic success was never mentioned just that he was entering the portal and here is his price Morris was at North Texas as a student that had already earned his degree, the reason he missed spring practice, and a dollar amount was never mentioned regarding his transfer/entering the portal. You chose to read it as a racial observation, not me. You were looking for something that wasn’t there nor considered when I made my comment. I was just adding in to another poster’s comments. Stupid financial decisions are not the result of race but thanks for. Inferring that. Watch the “30 for 30” episode titled “Broke” and it will reveal that it happens to all races. Thanks for being who you are though. I would be shocked if you replied differently.

      Portal players leaving

      I think the fact that he's playing in the bowl game shows 1) he just wants to play and 2) it just shows more of the drive and commitment that's gotten him to where he his. I'm not gonna' fault him for leaving if they aren't rewarding him with a scholarship and especially if it looks like he isn't going to be in the main rotation next year. That feels like "thanks for bailing us out, now go sit down."

      Too many "player-whisperers" these days telling kids what they should do next in their career. I'd like to see more data about players that left a program for NIL/more playing time on what the return on their investment was. If they had a do-over would they make different decisions or was it really the right move? Do players that change schools every year really have a loyalty to any of them when their playing days are over?

      Stop Blaming Athletes and the NCAA for Ruining College Football

      There is a lot of collateral damage in this Portal and NIL era. Fan-withdrawal because of PTSD associated with transferring key players will cause less emotional investment, and eventually less $$ investment in the program they follow. NIL donation requests, ticket surcharges, and pleas from ADs has displaced asking for donations for brick and mortar projects. Player buy-in to a coaching staff and program has been replaced with NIL buy-out of the players.
