We went from a potential contender for the MNC to a second rate bowl game in 3 weeks for 2 reasons.
1) Big steaming pile of shit for a secondary, but that has a lot more to do with coaching than players.
2) Colt McCoy's injury. He should not have played against A&M. He could barely grip the damn football. Yes, I am very good at hindsight. If anyone has an opening for a monday morning quarterback, I'm your guy.
Okay, 3 reasons, but the third is only for this thread.
3) UT is not as good as last year.
Hold off on betting your valuable e-cash until we hear if Colt McCoy is cleared to play. Right now, senior walkon Matt McCoy (no relation) is practicing with the first team. I'm too lazy to look it up, but I think he has completed 1 pass in his entire career.
Starting WR Quan Cosby is the emergency QB. Think Anquan Boldin and the 2004(?) Sugar Bowl against Georgia. No thank you.
Another thing to keep in mind: The previously infallible Gene Chizik has taken the head coaching job at ISU. Secondary coach and co-defensive coordinator Duane Akina will have the reins for the Alamo Bowl. I have no idea what changes, if any, that will have. Yes, I said the secondary coach. The secondary. See reason 1 above. Weeeeeeeeeee! (that will be the sound in Drew Tate's head on Dec 30).
I'm not being fair. The consensus is that Chizik was more or less in complete control this year. I swear to God that statement isn't an Xrayrandyism. Akina has a damn good resume.
And congrats on.......well........all that cool shit that has happened to the Bucks this year. I would've posted earlier but I've been out of the country for most of the season. And apologies for not being able to participate in the BP poll.
