Hoping our defense's success last year wasn't just because of Spaight, Flowers and Philon. Not going to overreact yet though

Ummmmm....we only gave up 16 points. And half of those were due to a shite possession by the offense and a shitty snap on a punt. The D wasn't the issue. We would've had to hold them to 6 points. And guess what? We can't expect them to shut out every team we play to cover for out shitty arse QB and run game. The blame lies firmly on the offense. You give ANY team enough possessions and they will score.

Toledo didn't need any fancy blitzes to get pressure on BA. Hell, they were doing it with three and four man rushes. It's TOLEDO!!!! Obviously, some of you people don't understand that. We should have been able to tell them what play we were gonna run and still do it.

There is no excuses, we suck arse. Our coaches suck arse. I have zero complaints about the D. 16 points is reasonable. 10 for the fricking offense is not. BA sucks arse. This year is for shite if he stays in. He can't win the games we should, and we don't win the toss up games. So, we damn sure aren't gonna pull any upsets. Unless our D can step up and shut out two teams....we're fricked. And even then, I'm sure BA and Bert's fat arse can figure out a way to score less than zero.

I think we're going to miss Flowers and Philon more than anything, because we can't seem to generate a pass rush or disrupt the pocket with our current D-line rotation. We didn't get that great of pressure on UTEP's QB either.

Still though, it's pretty amazing to think that we held Toledo to 16 points (really 10 if not for the botched punt). Plus, they came up big when it counted in the 4th quarter, and the offense just could never deliver. I was watching it with my buddy and he remarked "holy shite, it feels like Toledo should have like 40 points right now."
