Do we have the horses to score? Receivers? Tight ends?

Kind of looking like the same ol' same ol'. With no depth everywhere, youngsters get tired.

Thomas is out of the game now. Looks shaken up.

Is it JGJ, the game is out of hand, time? Not too many people to throw to. Maybe put Dorsey out in the slot since he's essentially just a tall WR at this point.

I wish they would just play Thomas the rest of the season. HIs ceiling is so much higher that George's.

so this is what the worst football in the nation looks like... jayzuz
anyone thinks we don't need to lower admissions standard to ncaa minimums is crazy
we need every ounce of help we can get in every facet of the program
i know why we look this bad, but it's just getting painful to watch
we look like a high school team... overmatched, undergunned, ill prepared, and outplayed
the worst part is that the opposing team doesn't have to beat us... they can sit back, play conservatively, and wait for us to self destruct
then run 50 plays and take the victory

if you'd have told me when ron zook took over that we'd be in 2017, Northwester would be light years ahead of us, Indiana would be light years ahead of us, Purdue would be better, Rutgers and Maryland would crush us... we ARE the cupcake amatuer program you schedule for some easy wins and practice.

this is demoralizing even though i know we've got injuries, we're young, and we never had a chance this year. just witnessing the state of the program... the degree to which this was left to deteriorate. this is just an embarassment. it will be two more years until we've ascended to the loft goal of well below average

Wasn't that (stiff arm) offensive pass interference?

Step off the ledge and be reminded again that this is by far the youngest, most inexperienced team in the country. Then realize again that they will get older and better.

We are so banged up. Can’t something nice happen?

Just like everybody else's freshmen.

So next year when they are terrible will we have to hear about how they are playing more sophs than any team in the country?
