[QUOTE="Soxfreak64, post: 1482806, member: 57877"] Just a really bad game again. Without a ton of fumble luck this is another 63-17 loss. Rod Smith continues to outthink himself. Brandon Peters still can't handle a blitz. Lovie...at least he's not going to have anybody to blame but himself. He's had a dozen chances to change and decided not to. He never will. So he'll keep losing. Letting the clock run at end of the 1st half? Inexcusable. Absolute refusal to modify the defense in any way? Inexcusable. I feel so bad for the players. Yeah, they missed assignments and tackles. It's college football. They played their hearts out for damn near 100 plays, constantly having to overcome a system/scheme that puts them out of position for modern college offenses. Outside of Rutgers, I feel like any other current B1G coach could lead this team to six wins. That opportunity will be there next year—I hope Whitman takes it. Or this program will burn for another 4 years, minimum. [/QUOTE]
