September 16, 20178 yr quite frankly one of the worst displays of D1 football I've ever seen right down to the ridiculousness of 2 dozen flags already. Tellin ya...I've seen some horrible horrible officiating this year already in college football...probably some of the worst I've ever seen.
September 16, 20178 yr Author QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Sep 15, 2017 -> 08:21 PM) Well well well!! QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Sep 15, 2017 -> 08:27 PM) Ugh, huge letdown Any offense is good offense but they scored too quick, ha. If Crouch is really their best quarterback, ouch.
September 16, 20178 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 15, 2017 -> 07:22 PM) It's Lovie Ball all the way, 2000s Bears. No quarterback, just turnovers and hold them to field goals. I'm not sure those teams ever gave up 400 yards on the ground.
September 16, 20178 yr We played close to 20 freshman against a ranked team on the road, wish we didn't look as bad as we did but really that was expected.

I was more thinking about the feeling that special teams was their best way to score and somehow they were keeping it a game for a while. Like Russ said, so many freshmen, I think 10 of 22 starters. It really showed on the offensive and defensive lines.

September 16, 20178 yr Speight is not good. I see 4 losses unless something changes. Edited September 16, 20178 yr by Brian
September 16, 20178 yr QUOTE (bmags @ Sep 16, 2017 -> 03:56 PM) Rock bottom (hopefully) They'll probably beat us next week. What we drinking?
September 17, 20178 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 16, 2017 -> 06:12 PM) They'll probably beat us next week. What we drinking? Not to discount Purdue, looks like they've found themselves a coach. But do not underestimate how bad mizzou is and has become under Barry Odom.

He also is an awful decision maker.

September 19, 20178 yr QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 17, 2017 -> 11:14 AM) Touche. I'm just sad. Don Brown is still there, so....
September 19, 20178 yr QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 19, 2017 -> 08:35 AM) Don Brown is still there, so.... Can't believe Durkin leaving was such a blessing. But if they are sticking with Speight, it's for naught. Now Black is out for awhile and Isaac may miss this weekend. Only two offensive guys doing anything. Edited September 19, 20178 yr by Brian

That defense will flat out win every game for a month.
September 24, 20178 yr QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 23, 2017 -> 10:18 PM) Ferentz just earned another 10 year extension Locked up his 200th coach of the year award.
September 24, 20178 yr I think we can say Kentucky will never beat Florida. Twice UK forgot to cover a WR coming out of a timeout and both plays resulted in a TD. Blows a 13pt lead in final 8-9 minutes and gets an iffy holding call on the center that took away what would've been a 35-40 yard FG attempt in final seconds. Instead a 57 yard attempt falls about 2 yards short. Just not going to happen. And all the talk of Jimbo Fisher being a top tier coach needs to end. Unless FSU wins out, this season will be the 5th time in 6 seasons FSU will lose 3+ games when Winston isn't their QB. He gets a lot of top talent but what has he done with those players?
