Because you score when you can. A TD is never, ever guaranteed.

I'm beginning to see Caponi's problem. Our defensive coordinators should always look like Ernest Hemingway or Kris Kristofferson.

Rogers threw for 411 yards and 5 touchdowns (no picks). Adeyi rushed for 104 yards & we had two 100 yard receivers today. The offense isn't why we lost today. We lost this game because our de

then the damn WR does not get out of bounds. 

SMH on the basics the team does not do, that's coaching

It was a low throw that he went down to catch. Not sure if he could do anything else.

Stop it. I stand by what I stated. This board is insufferable during games. 

It’s a fan board. 🤨😂

When you have 600 yards and put up that effort and lose? You aren’t serious about defense or football. Some serious programs have fired their coordinators mid season. If Caponi is here next year, Morris deserves whatever happens.

Well guys, if our coaches did their jobs in the first half, good possibility this would’ve been an actual victory instead of another moral victory 

4 games  now that easily could have been victories if the coaches made better choices and also had the team ready to play from the first snap

Don't know what to think. These coaches do great things in the half time break. Makes you wonder why they cannot do the same thing between games. The second halves show that the players could do it if the conditions are right. But -particularly on defense- things just keep looking horrible the first few drives of games, when the opposing OC has the chance to script it.

At the same time, its great to see that the team has bought in. If they hadn't, then fighting back like that when you keep getting punched in the mouth would not be possible

I triple dog dare anyone to defend this coaching staff now. 

It’s a defensive issue… I wasn’t aware every coach on this staff was in charge of that…

The offense scored with just 47 seconds left. That should have been short enough time for the defense to keep Memphis out of the end zone.

Memphis went 75 yds in 30 seconds and then the man to man coverage on the TD is maddening

You do know who’s running this defense, right?

Absolutely not…. Rodgers should have known better and kept the ball and burned that clock. The worst that should have happened is overtime. Not losing the game in the 4th quarter. That’s the most piss poor play I have seen all year is throwing the TD there…. football is chess and these guys should know better!

I mean, a good coach teaches kids to just tackle the guy before the ball gets there and live another play.  

100% - either he wasn’t taught that or didn’t execute what they were coached to do. Difference in the game.

The offense is very good

I'll judge the head coach after the season if we don't clean house on the defensive side. It's not just coming out flat literally every game or bad schemes or bad fundamentals, it's also shockingly bad situational awareness.

That said if they are able to find even a mediocre defensive staff, we'll be in the hunt for a championship.

Should have kicked the field goal on our very first series instead of going on 4th and missing.

Hindsight is 20/20 and easy.

And for once and for all I wish we could put to bed this notion that some how given our terrible past is an excuse for what is going on today.   Too many programs spending less than us and in a shorter time span have gotten much better results than us.  

Oh and Bean the guy Aune/Littrell kept on the bench beat started for the team OU today.

On the bright side it looks like they have some life in them today.  At least I can root for a spread cover.

Beat OU

It is chess, and our win probability was much higher scoring a touchdown with 47 seconds left than kicking a field goal and going to overtime.

Absolutely not because the tie was the worst case scenario. 3 downs to score. 2 if you run it up the middle and keep the click moving. We let the clock burn and still score we win. It was a poor decision.

It is pick your poison.

If we cared more about consuming the clock than scoring, we get a field goal there.

Then if we lose in OT, we're all angry we didn't score a touchdown when there was a chance to grab the lead.

Our defense had held Memphis to one touchdown in the second half. We should have been able to keep them from going 75 yards in 47 seconds.

      Mississippi Valley State (12/18/24)

      On the telecast, they made if sound like that was part of his game and not so much his work in the paint. He wasn't terrible, but his footwork was not impressive to me. May be the rust from not being on the floor. The only two players that didn't see the floor were Cotton and Smith. I am assuming Cotton is hurt and Smith just isn't quite ready. It would be nice to see Lorient and Sissoko take him under their wing and help develop him. Regarding this team: Lorient (Jr.): Man, he has exceeded all expectations and just seems to be getting better and better. Hope we can keep him. Massie (Sr.) and Floyd (Sr.): Does either qualify for an extra year or is this it? Jossell (Sr): Love his game. I am assuming he is done after this year since this is his 5th season. Our most confident shooter at this time. Wright (Sr.): Considering this is his 5th year to play, I guess he is a one and done. Very different from what I expected. Pretty shot, but not athletic enough to create his own shot off the dribble. Stays within his abilities and quietly puts up numbers. Mason (Fr.): He needs minutes. This kid could be something really special. Cotton (R-Fr): Really want to see more of his game. Probably currently a level below Mason, but has the ability to be a double figure scorer. Stone (Sr): Happy to see him get the "and one" last night. That play really exemplifies his game. His hustle on the defensive end led to that play. Really wish he could have found his stroke the last few years, because I love his grit. He tries so hard and is Mean Green through and through.

      Imagine one man having the pull to make an entire website react to his every single move. Far from pathetic.

      Imagine being in a power conference and having a fan troll the website of a G5 that you don’t play and go to the website and troll all day…what an existence. Shoot me if I’m ever close to being that pathetic.

      Where are they now?

      Enjoyed reading this one because it doesn't seem to use the "fill in the blank" most use. Similar ideas but actually sounded as if it came from an unique individual. Hope he finds a good fit.
