Worst team since 2016

[OscarBerkshire]

This is easily the worst football team I’ve seen since 2016. Not a single NFL player on either side of the ball. Awful execution and focus in all three phases of the game.

Strangely the best unit on the team this year is the O line. Clanton you’ve done a good job.

Mouser should not have an OC job next year. His passing schemes are incredibly simplistic and rely on having NFL receivers.

Problem is, what improvement can we make? There isn’t any talent on the 2 deeps on either side of the ball, and we cannot poach any good players (see Chase Sowell, lol what a waste of money). Try to keep the OL and ditch the rest I suppose.

We're at 'mid-game open letter of grievances over things I have no control over' time.

Fun.

This team was really good maybe better than last year. Rocco hasn’t looked great lately and the play calling on offense has gotten really conservative after the injuries. Feel like we just lost to many people at a key position.

2022 was already worse than this year could be. Might as well wait until this game is over before we overreact.

2022 team exists but at least that defense was great. It was Manning’s pathetic offense that lost them all those games (minus TCU)

Was it or were we fools gold? A really good team routs Iowa and KState in those games. A good team doesn't struggle to beat Arky State.

We were really good during the Arizona game, but other than that in hindsight I'm not sure this team was ever "really good"

Count your blessings that you didn't witness the Chizick or Rhoads eras. It was nonstop nut punchs.

August and early September

Two games vs. a marginal KSU team (and ISU didn't look that good) and an FCS school?

Can a full blown manifesto be far behind??

Orange is definitely an nfl guy. Dont know how far op's head has to be up his ass. I don't even think orange is 100%. we do need a lot more containment and pressure on the quarterback with how depleted the defensive backfield is.

Staying healthy is the biggest improvement that can be made.

Basketball season starts next week so likely not.

 

[ClonesFTW]

OP may have been poorly phrased but he’s probably not wrong. This team does lack star power that we’ve had on each team for the last decade. No Breece Hall, Lazard, Hutchison, Noel, etc. as the clear guy to bail us out in bad spots.

******* brutal.

Season turned on that hit at Cincy. Rocco needs to sit and has needed to sit.

No, that was the illusion granted by playing against bad teams.

Orange and Brahmer will be playing on Sundays.

I'm skeptical on Orange. He doesn't take over games and that is what the NFL looks for.

Enyi Uwazurike absolutely dominated games via tackles for loss, sacks, etc. Dom Orange has not done that consistently here as an interior DL.

Kooper Ebel may be the only defensive player right now that's a legitimate NFL prospect.
