Just can’t sleepwalk like they did again. Kicking game is an issue. Someone needs to step up at running back. Defense is really good, but still you have to score more points than we are. They are bend and not break and sometimes you can’t even bend. Defense is good enough to keep them in games but they aren’t good enough in the secondary to shut teams down either. Not in this league. Most games you are going to need 35 points from here on out to have a chance.
Outside of Kansas and Oklahoma I think every game is a toss up, so somehow have to get 4 wins, eliminate these mistakes and get to six wins somehow.
Today was a crushing loss, Tcu is a must win now. Just have to have it.

Difference last year after TCU was that it was glaringly obvious we were weak at qb then we revealed Purdy. This year, we have our qb. Who we unleashing to give this offense a major boost?
That OPI was horse ****.. the defender instigated contact and held onto Kolar, if anything it should have been a holding call on Baylor. That's why Campbell was actually yelling at the refs for once, and was even drawing the play explaining it later it looked like.
Lolz. Zero points. Zero FCKING points in the first half. They held Iowa to 18 points. This team has a winning problem and it AIN'T the defense.
Gave up a scoring drive at the end the 1st half.
Same thing happened in the Iowa game.
The defense is part of the winning problem. All 3 phases have been subpar in late situations.
Kolar had a hold of the dude in a blocking technique.
We’ve lost 2 games by 3 points. One to the 14th ranked team in the country and the other on the road, in tough conditions, to a team who will be bowling. Our tough games are at home, except for OU and KSU. I think we need to pause on the meltdown for at least 2 conference games.
I want to see if more develops with Wilson and Shaw over the top or at least to the outside.
Lawman conforming the law firm of Brock & Brock in Brocktober. Bring it, baby.
The optimistic rating is for thinking this group of people aren’t going to be participating in a full fledge, Sky is falling meltdown all week.
Why are ‘we’ the ‘better’ team? We have a bigger stadium? We have a better fan base? We’re just ‘better’?
Fair enough. But some of us were hoping for a next level jump in this season. And we weren't alone. Plenty of publications had us third in the league and a sexy darkhorse to make the championship game. I'll never complain about going to a bowl, any bowl. But clearly this team isn't going to live up to the hype. I wish just ONCE we would.
If a team has its "head up its ass for two quarters' its not a good team.
Same goes for if a team needs to make plays and it doesn't happen. That whole 'margins' thing.
Clemson had its head up it’s ass for three quarters today. Are they not a good team?
They're a good team. Made the plays when they needed to.
Dabo in the post-game said his team got outplayed and outcoached.
Clemson, unlike ISU knows how to finish.
This team misses DM. Essentially no running game to keep the defense honest.
