Both stretches were horrible to watch
That's correct. KJ threw like 55 passes that game before being pulled for Will.Quote:

You're way too sensitive. No one is defending arnett at this point.Quote:

It is hard to quantify the playing hard part. We had some brutal losses in 2020. Our defense still hasn't quit this year. They have reason to quit, but they have played their ass off the last 6 quarters of football. The offense has given them nothing.Quote:

Not hard for me to blame him. Like the coach or not, like the system or not, he's being paid and given a scholarship to play, so play. I'm perfectly fine with him and all quitters to leave.Quote:

I do also think some (WR for one) are pouting about not getting the ball as much or something. I'm not sure some are playing hard for a not Will QB, their AR guy. You can tell that by comments after SC game. Not a word since.Quote:

No doubt. This is worse than Croom.Quote:

Have we had a showing this year against a top 20 team that would be remotely close to that?
Yeah but it was Ron Zook...another one that was Croomed. LolQuote:

People are acting as if this team has zero offensive talent. It just isn't true. We have one of the most experienced offensive lines in our program's history. I would bet we have over 100 starts between the five starters on the OL. We have two WR's in Tulu and Zavion that a lot of teams would like.Quote:

We didn't have the talent of several of the teams we played, but the air raid closed the talent gap.
It's also a simple offense to run, which as Mike Leach said you don't want your players to think too hard during the game. Find green grass.
Look at our offense now, QB and receivers not on same page, blocking wrong people, run blocking on pass plays, etc. I think it's too complicated for the players. It's like Morehead's offense.
Give me a version of the Air Raid any day of the week over this run the ball 2 yards and a cloud of dust. I don't care what you Air Raid haters thing, but your preferred offense isn't getting it done either.
Look what happens to us now with teams stopping the running game and we can't pass the ball.
Next year is going to be brutal. Recruiting is going to suffer and we're losing experienced players.
That crap I sat through Saturday night is worse than Croom. Period.Quote:
