When the teams decides to have a heart, I'll watch. I sat through the entire debacle at Iowa last year...that was simply an opponent exploiting a weakness. Today was virtually an entire team playing without any discipline.

That's what I mean... something is off guys.

Too many penalties.
Defense is pourous.
Offense is streaky.

I would be surprised if something isnt wrong with ufm.

No doesn't sound fucking healthy at all... I'm telling you guys...

I would start grasping Ryan Day as the head coach now.

I Just sense something is wrong.

Maybe I'm wrong? But something is off...

No matter what tho I love Urban... he's made our state proud.

Yep. He's already complained of having memory problems now he is having intense headaches on the sideline to go along with his other stress related problems from Florida. He's already won 3 national championships he's accomplished everything there is to accomplish. He has all the money in the world and his grandkids are being born. You have to ask, why keep coaching and putting yourself through this stress?

In my opinion the numbers are not that similar.

It will be interesting to see how well Tua holds up against better competition when they've had a chance to game plan for him. But so far, the numbers for Tua are that much better in my opinion.

To me, he appears to have Dwayne's arm and much better legs.

We'll see if he looks as good after he plays someone with a pulse.

Until we have some data on the bold parts, it's hard to know. I do know Haskins has put up in those situations. Tua might... But, we don't know.

You're right. We don't know yet.

Sucks for the DFBIA though. They used to be able to count on the September Heisman. Tua ran away with it this year (and today's numbers look like a typo).

C'mon man.

Heart? Like overcoming a 2 TD deficit in the 4th quarter on the road in Happy Valley kind of heart?

Back 7 of the defense has issues. No question.

Offense is elite

Young, highly aggressive teams are going to get a lot of penalties.Wish they didn't but it's been that way for a few years now.

There is really nothing that mysterious about what happens to this team. Frustrating, sure but there is no mystery here.Some of the new guys aren't quite ready enough to allow the defense to reload.

His numbers are gaudy, if not at such a volume as others...but, they have literally played no one of note and they won't until November. He will literally have 2 months of tomato cans to build a head of steam. I have a hard time giving him too much credit when he has played nothing but scrubs.

I didn't realize how ridiculously soft their schedule is until i just looked at it. It's absurd.

I mean the only difference between Haskins and Tua is that Haskins has consistently played better competition. Against Oregon State, Rutgers, and Tulane, Haskins looked like he was throwing against air.

I would argue that the offense is on the line of being elite or not... too dependant on the throw

talked a buddy of mine off this same ledge earlier. Still, I am hopeful the soft part of the schedule can provide some quality learning reps for the back 7. This D can't stop Bama. O can run with anyone.. but, the D has got to get to elite status. Fast.
