  1. Nobody tell them how much the libs in Ann Arbor average per game, it may destroy their faith in the moral value they apparently place on that metric.
  2. Geez, 7 figures per year just to retain a top player for another season. Not doubting your assessment at all, just marveling at how far we have come so fast.
  3. Iowa, Notre Dame, Florida, Arkansas, ATM, UCLA - all big name programs that have lost to or eked out narrow victories against teams similar to or lesser than UTSA’s quality. Not to mention Nebraska’s complete immolation. I’m not going to be upset about that win at all.
  4. Ford being a competent LB has helped. He is credited with 15 tackles last night.
  5. Just win games. The rankings will take care of themselves.
  6. National stats going into the game last night:
  7. I’m sure he’d say he is trying to build culture and wants his team to play to win until the final whistle, etc. Whatever.
  8. And Barron’s pick six. I’m not disparaging Traylor, but timely plays by future NFL players are why big programs beat little programs all the time.
  9. When we get Ewers back, a lot is going to open up for him in the run game.
  10. Would love to hear some insights from our X’s & O’s gurus as to what adjustments we made in the second half, because the results certainly seemed better to this untrained eye.
  11. Last night should be a clear message to us all that Card is just a limited, pedestrian game manager. And I say that while agreeing with @Thatguy that the deep ball issues aren’t all Card’s fault. Worthy just isn’t seeing them well and there are times when the ball is in his area and he doesn’t even make a play for it. I continue to believe the loss of Neyor has really hurt the potential of this offense in that regard, and it has the secondary effect of allowing the defense to crowd e box, hampering our running game. That still doesn’t explain why Card isn’t able to hit anything down the field beyond dump offs and WR screens to the sidelines. I tend to agree that he just doesn’t process what’s happening fast enough, or doesn’t trust what he is seeing because he seems hesitant and indecisive. At least he isn’t turning the ball over, which may also explain why he is playing hesitant - he’s too scared of throwing an INT to make a throw into a tighter window. There’s no point in berating the guy anymore, we know what he is and what he isn’t by this time. Quinn is QB1 by a country mile, and until he gets back, we’re just going to have to hope for gutting out ugly wins like last night.
