    No excuse. A bad coach can put together a field goal.

    He hasn't scored in 2 games. The offensive line is better than last yr. If you have to dink and dunk your way into a field goal, do it! ZERO points is no excuse

    I don't really give a **** about leaving a couple of field goals on the field when the game isn't even winnable. This offensive line is not better. The QB is still a washout from Tech. Nothing is better, except the defense, marginally. Your expectations and investment are wildly out of step with the reality on the ground. At this rate you're not going to last.

    Willie is trying to win games. He could have Donovan put it in the air some more but we'd lose 68-14 or something. He doesn't trust him and clearly doesn't have anything with the other QB.

    Gonna need the Daspit Law Firm and Gallery Furniture to step it up with NIL deals for some transfers.

    I think you're missing the point. I emphasized field goals as just a formality of being in a position to score. Putting ZERO on the board says you weren't even in position to score, you didn't even have a chance.

    At the half the score was 10-0, if they could've scored a field goal, they would've been in position to tie after the half. If I were a player, at least I would want a chance. You play harder when you have a chance, that's human nature.

    The offense was bad last year and they lost 4 oline starters. In 5 years Dana recruited one guy thats on the 2 deep on the oline right now. The guys starting now are all washouts from other programs except Pancake Hunter.
