New tunnel walk music...Yakity Sax.

 

[Bryon]

ugh, that not even a Pop Warner worthy FG attempt.. outmanned at just about every position.

 

[B.B. Hemingway]

Bill Callahan?

This team is worse than any Callahan team.

 

[Nebhawk]

Until we get a win, this negative ambush will continue.  This team right now has no belief it can win, nor will it until some things go right.  Martinez looks scared to run the ball.  He has had several zone read plays and handed the ball off.  He needs a good run and a few plays to go his way soon.

Looking to see if we can adjust on D.  Might not result in the W, But see if we can change it up.  Changing on the fly might be too much to ask of a 3rd year DC. 

He hasn't shown the ability to adjust. I'm not going to hold my breath.

 

[Hayseed]

Coaching can't make the tackles and stop from hitting players out of bounds.  Riley recruited the softest and most lame brained players in the history of this program, including Callahan.  

Callahan recruited some studs... no comparison to Riley.

 

[TheSker]

This is against a team that's 1-3 though, so that's not really all that great either in all truthfulness.

And oddly enough, their win was against a ranked team.

We can always hope Purdue naps too long in the half time locker room

Glad Riley could give scholarships to the worst two kickers in the country

Pickering was one of the top kickers in the country. What happened? 

 

[TheSker]

this is seriously a circus

After 3 seasons of Riley, not surprising.

He acts hurt. I don't see the explosiveness anymore.

 

[StPaulHusker]

I thought we were going to be just from coaching. But I always had in the back of my head that we could really struggle this year too. 

At this point I am not prepared to say this team has been coached better

 

[Jason Sitoke]

I’ve seen kicks like that before. Usually it involves alcohol and a poorly thought out wager with friends

Can’t say ive seen many like that on television. 

 

[YellowShirt]

Too bad we don’t have two 6’7”+ TEs you can throw to in the end zone

 

[MichiganDad3]

Studs versus duds
