Anyone remember the arm wrestling scene in Revenge of the Nerds where Ogre is vs the big woman from Omega Moo? It took everything he had to win and then starts crying. That's how this feels today. Starts about 1.20 in.

Guess what...we still lose Ranking, Alamo bid. What a pathetic way to end the seqson

Agree. I don't see any way that the Alamo picks us over WV now. They'd be too afraid we'd get blown out.

And I don't know that we'll finish the season ranked now either. We sure don't deserve to be, that's for sure.

I fully expect CMC to blame the field conditions for this, and that is total BS! We'll probably have new fake Field Turf next year after this now, and that's BS too.

Disagree - this game basically showed that most likely the players didn't take the game very seriously nor did they prepare very well for it. Drake on the other hand was the complete opposite.

This is exactly what happens when you don't take games seriously and/or prepare for them. That's how upsets happen all the time.

Our OL was not able to get any push against Drake, again Drake!!!, even when we were about to lose, that has nothing to do with taking the game seriously.

We are missing talent in the OL, you are not going to go to a BIG 12 Championship without an experienced and talented OL. I have faith CMC will get the OL there at some point.

Need to have a real OL coach to start with.

Good thing Drake wasn't playing Oklahoma. They really moved the ball against the "best" defense in the Big 12. :-(

Drake gave us a better game than WV. Now why do you think that is?

The nice thing about the game being on Cyclones TV, you get to watch the most of the 4 quarter in the Big XII championship.
