Can we at least get a K State loss to make this sting a tinge less? Not much but would give me some ounces of joy.

Are we sure Rocco is it? He’s okay but that level of play against the worst secondary in the country immediately after last week’s showing…yikes.
Go look at the pick 6s vs UCF. Playing the jumbo personnel and splitting them wide meant the S jumping the route with no fear of getting beat deep. On the one of Noel’s hands you’ve got a cluster underneath because again, you’re splitting backup TEs out wide and inviting traffic in the box and underneath.
The insistence to play backup TEs and then think you are going to have space on quick throws to the outside and be successful underneath is dumb.
I think with these weaker B12 schedules we will get there. But it really does feel like we are going to bungle away our chance this year.
Squib kicks, untimely penalties, wasting timeouts and red zone woes were common themes in our 1-score losses in 2022 and 2023. We saw too much of that again today.
Agree 100%. And this is and still is a magical year. Look at the injuries at linebacker; with all those injuries in a heacock defense I am pleasantly happy to be 7-1 and I think we may still control our destiny for the big 12 championship game
Hopefully the team will learn from this and make them stronger.
I mean, that was known from the start when UNLV beat two Big 12 teams right away
We are now on the outside looking in for the conf title. If the offense keeps making mistakes at the rate theyve done over the past two games…it will be tough to win any games.
Taking Higgins and Noel out on the same play at any time in the game is...awkward? Odd? Bad?
Someone help me understand why we’re not kicking out of the end zone? I know it was raining but we seem to do this a lot. And it seems to cost us 5 to yards a lot
**** around and find out. The offense has been riding on luck all year. For ***** sake, so many lower level teams are able to figure it out, yet our o line sucks ass every year. Just be ******* serviceable, block the guy in front of you and protect the passer. How can we be this bad at OLine play this far into the system? Get the wrist bands off and tell them to block the first guy you see. Stop playing 5d chess when everyone else is playing checkers.
Rocco is the reason we are winning, he is also the reason games are close with so many bad plays.
