Some of my travel plans shifted and I ended up booking a trip to see this shite
(I must love pain lol)

Hopefully whoever is left on the roster decides to show up too.

I don't expect a win at all. I am hoping we show up and play hard (unlike the Cotton Bowl fiasco). If we play hard and keep it respectable, I'll be content.

In a bowl with no consequences, why are we as conservative as we are?

Billy and this staff should be cutting it loose, but we got smacked 30-3 and acting like it’s an SEC game, being conservative and trying to run setups.

I’ll say it again…. You can’t out recruit bad coaching. I’m aware that’s it’s year 1 and Billy needs “his guys”. I’m fine with seeing what happens until year 3 and I hope I eat crow. But nothing he’s done to this point tells me he’s “that man”. His in-game coaching is fricking disgustingly horrible. Just another brick in the wall as far as I’m concerned. The fact that we are 6-6 playing an overrated Pac12 team and getting our brains blown out just tells me we are a long way from where we should be.

Every other person in this fanbase may feel some type of way about this statement, so I’ll make sure I say it loud and clear….save the receipts if you need to…

WE ARE A BLUE BLOOD SCHOOL AND SHOULD WIN 10+ GAMES EVERY YEAR WITHOUT QUESTION.

All I hear about on social media is “turning the roster over” and “Billy making room for his guys”. We’ll it’s time for the talking heads to be worth their salt. Call it whatever you want. If we don’t win 10+ games in year 3 with a realistic outlook of making a playoff then move on.

While I understand the recruiting hype with stars and all that bullshite, it may not necessarily translate to the field, so at least go get guys that fit the system. 3 star, 4-star, whatever… gets guys that can execute what we need to do to win games.

My grade on this year as a whole between coaching decisions (in-game included) and recruiting is a D+. The only reason it isn’t worse is the fact that’s he’s recruited decently.

We have been a massive failure in the portal. With the amount of guys we have entering the portal i just assumed we'd do well there.

Ever since that loss to oregon st and the disappointing finish to signing day and now this it's been a steep drop for Billy with the fans.

And we've lost 2 starters on the OL. Yeah i did not see this coming. Hard to see any path to a solid 2023 at this point.
