Such a frustrating game. Get 14 points in the first half and then you can't do anything in the 2nd with fumbles and dropped passes. Unbelievable.

One of the sloppiest games I've seen in a long time. Only way to make this a good season is to go up to AA and bury that other team.

I have no problem with Boom in the wildcat. I think they tried to get Hyde back there to give him a little extra time to see the hole. I don't understand the Jordan Hall handoff to Boom wildcat at all.

The wildcat fumble was avenged, we got the ball back. It all comes down to the fumble later in the drive.

Job of the coaches DURING a game - find schemes and plays that fit the current game. Put peeps in the right position. Yeah, the wildcat was dumb but did Fickell fumble the ball?

Did the coaching staff jump off sides? Did the coaching staff fumble the ball out of Hydes hands? Did he coaching staff consistently miss blocks and fumble snaps?

Only thing the coaches can do is get at the players and see what the issue is and TRY to correct it, they cant fix issues that are happening in the game at the time.

True, Capo, but a lot of folks are frustrated because of the simple fact...no fucking way that we should have allowed those fucks come into The Shoe and do this. The team just stepped all over their dicks. Two fumbles, three fucked up snaps form a center who started nearly every game he has been here, and two dropped long balls...all on Senior Day and the day we honor TBDBITL's 28-year director. Totally embarassing and absolutely not acceptable...

Thought the time management in this game was key component in why we lost.

When you are losing by a TD in the fourth quarter you cannot be using the entire play clock before you run each play. Especially when you are only gaining 3-4 yard per play.

I think our T.O.P in the fourth quarter was 10-12 minutes.. and we only got two possessions out of that.. that last drive we pretty much ran the entire clock out to go from our own 15 to their 40... that was like a 6 minutes drive to go 45-50 yards.. No hurry up offense or urgency

You chastize others for only blaming the coaches, yet you seem to think it's all the players fault. Do you honestly not see the silliness of that?

I have no problem blaming the players, they aren't executing. But, the coaches are culpable as well. If they aren't instilling the discipline, then what is their job besides wearing a headset?

I think he was making the point that the discipline related penalties and errors were committed by seniors, including some that have made few previous mistakes. It's hard to blame coaching for all the bad snaps. I don't think he's giving the coaches a free pass, he's just pointing out that some of the mistakes fall on the players.

Let's just beat the fuck out of Michigan and then look forward to next season.

This is the worst team I have seen since before Tressel...and Cooper (I threw up in my mouth on that one.

No fucking passing game. Irratic running game.... half-assed defense (refer to the first half of the game.)
