I have seen drops, but I don't think I've seen shitty WR play in general. Some of you are being a bit harsh.
We know the floor for this team, we saw it against Ohio State, and against SJSU. The worst games this teams plays still result in a likely playoff run, but a team that was better than year 2 sark by a country mile.
The ceiling is what everyone wants to see, it's underwhelming to come out the first 2 games and see flashes of what could be if consistent and what ends up being when the team commits a lot of mental mistakes.
That's my theme for this team right now - ridden with mental mistakes.
How much of that is lack of maturity? How much of that is lack of effort? How much of that is lack of experience? How much of that is lack of trust?
Those are the questions we should be asking. Sark has alluded to players making mental mistakes as "trying too hard" or "caring too much". That is maturity. I haven't seen a lack of effort play this season, but I have seen Jordan Washington do jack shit to tackle a guy when he saw the ball was wildly underthrown. That's lack of experience.
There's a lot to be very high on this team about still, but here we are nitpicking a team that has double digit new starts between both sides of the ball, has been playing tons of freshman and has yet to find its true identity.
UTEP should be a building game, or we will learn that these guys are slow to pick up on how to correct.
