Coach Mac,

As weak as the Belt is this year PLEASE do the right thing and ........... no more experiments. Looking at the schedule we could have 3 gimmes and only need to win one of the Troy, LaLa and ArkSt games and WE WILL be bowl eligible at 6-6. I know nothing is a gimme for this team, but we are 92 on CBS120, who woulda thought that huh? Just let Chico do his thing and let the D do their thing and we just might have a chance. These upperclassmen have been thru so much a bowl game would be an awesome achievement that i never thought possible to start the season.

The D has been successful because of McCarney not in spite of him.

You guys blame NTEX1990 for requesting Coach Mac. not to experiment? Then you want source documentation. How about UNT playing Alabama and our defense plays pretty well. Then bring in our I guess 3rd string QB who played JUCO ball and he drives UNT down to inside the 10 yard line of Bama. Then, we put the QB that produced drive and put in I guess our 2nd string freshman QB, and Oh well. Guess it wasn't OK to score against Nick Sabin. Maybe Coach Mac. has to much respect for Coach Sabin. I have seldom if ever seen a coach pull a QB in that situation. Guess we wanted to build McNulty's character, but crush Osborn's for producing a productive drive on the #2 team in the land. Then, Oh well!! What do we arm chair QB's know anyway.

In the DD or Dodge era there were plenty of arm chair QB's not questioned about their posts on the message board. God forbid you read Scotty's board back in the day!!!

I think most people were replying to the assumption that McCarney would blow a close game due to a "experimenting" with something that hasn't been tested yet. The late drive against Alabama wasn't a do or die situation therefore it was an acceptable point to try out a goaline package and see how it worked against the reserves of the best defense in the country. McCarney and Chico used that situation to test that package out, it didn't work and therefore it hasn't been attempted in an important situation if at all since. Perfectly acceptable in my book.

You also have to consider that CBS ranking is on crack. They have Houston in front of Wisconsin and ULL in front of Florida, Tech, and other much better schools. That being said, we probably are in the 105-115 range.

Yes, the CBS ranking does suck, but we're definitely better than 105-115. Much better.

      I agree. Injuries are bound to happen. They almost did tonight. They did last season. Utah State played without a starter tonight and last night due to food poisoning. You never know. We need more than 8 guys prepared to play effectively.

      Utah State (11/29/24)

      Giving a few guys some rest and clearing the bench are two different things. We were up 17 against UNI with a couple minutes left in the first half and again early in the second half. Those are prime opportunities to sub in your 9th and 10th guys and give a couple of your main rotation guys a few minutes of rest. We actually had a double digit lead most of the second half against UNI. It was never really threatened. Edit to add it's kind of funny to suggest we were never in a position to clear the bench against UNI yet Utah State played 11 guys against us and 10 against St Bonaventure. Some get on for less than 10 minutes but I promise you a starter gets needed rest for those few minutes they get to sit. Maybe we should do as the top 30 team does?

      the UNI game was a 9 point game with 3:30 to play. 57-48. we shut them out from there to push it to 20, but at no point short of the last minute or so was it even possible to clear the bench. everybody needs stop over-analyzing tonight's loss. it was a toss up...they made a few more plays than we did. play the game ten times and it's 5/5 with a top 30 team that might sneak into the top 25 by Christmas.

      Hard to blame the refs when we forced 16 turnovers and took 15 more shots. Just couldn't hit our shots. Sometimes you're cold. I'm going to agree with @UNTLiferwho said we should have played bench guys against UNI considering it was a blowout. Have to give your starters rest when you can, especially on the first of a back-to-back.

      oh no...a downvote. articulate a half-decent opinion or go the eff away. I swear actually having a winning program has made this board worse.
