I'll go ahead and say this now: Kinda sorta playing better in the 2nd half (if it happens) is not a moral victory or any positive sign.  It's just another massively disappointing loss.

I don’t know what else better demonstrates the defense under Caponi than Tulane’s last drive before halftime.  Coming off an interception and in a game where they’ve run the ball at will, the entire stadium and tv watching world KNOWS Tulane is going to run the ball.  What do we do?  We come out with 6 defensive backs.  Obviously.  Tulane runs two running plays that each go for over 20.

Enough is enough.

When this happens week after week we know what Caponi is. So why are we surprised or pissed off when this happens week after week against quality competition. We have some games against bottom feeder teams and we all put our green glasses on.

The continuation of this happening is 100% on Morris. I'm tired of hearing the crap while making change during mid-season. Maybe you send a freaking message out to people that you're not going to accept crap play.

I think he’s still surprising me after what I just saw.  I mean…I expect him to run his favored 3-3-5.  I’d hope for a 3-4 or a 4-4 in that scenario.  But a 3-2-6?!  What the actual ….

Does anything actually surprise you with our defense? The main thing that keeps surprising me is that we have some people that will continue to jump up to defend it. Be the hell out of me but it seems like some people that claim to be North Texas fans would really love to see us never succeed at the highest level.

I don't.  I know what we have.  I expect it.  But again, Morris doesn't focus on anything but play calling and his offense.  He simply believes he can outscore anything the other team does and in the end, who cares what the defense does.

I’m too old to be naive, but I do still get surprised.  Maybe flabbergasted is a better word.

Defense looks to be staying the same in the 2nd half. Our best bet was to try to match them score for score each drive which we have not done.

Hot garbage. We still likely go 7-5 or even 8-4 and that will be fine for most fans and definitely for the administration. But we traded Littrell for peppy Littrell.

Worst defense I have seen in Denton since the Portland State tragedy.   And that Coach Mac NT defense just gave up.  These guys are trying but they can't do what Caponi is scheming with any effectiveness.  If they just tackled effectively they might keep team under 45 consistently.

8-4 and 5th in conference.  Probably.  That's crazy.

But -- oh yeah -- I'm not allowed to have an opinion since I don't bribe a player.

and this is the EXACT reason why we will see no change in the DC.
