Lol, love all the dooms dayers after week 1!!! Guys and Gals, we had some dumb penalties and correctable ST’s play. Unforced, self-inflicted penalties will get corrected and this is a different looking team. Offense looks fine and D looks better. Could have really used a tuneup game this year but that’s not the hand we were dealt. It’s still early to predict where this season goes. This would be a better discussion after KY.
With a staff that can adapt and put this team in the best position to win...warts and all. Do we have that staff? We're going to find out.
It will not even be close to warm! I recall Norvell was a hot mess for three seasons and they broke thru and played a decent game against Lswho. Billy deserves the same. Cut him loose now and we will be $31.9 mill lighter and loose a top 3 recruiting class and the coaching carousel will begin all over again. Not good for the program and the other teams in the conference will just laugh us out the door! The sports media already has the opinion we are the worst fan base in the country no need to prove them right!
Our defense couldn't get off the field last year. EWU 52-17 last year, they still had 36-24m TOP advantage. Against Utah, we had 32-28m TOP advantage. Last year our second-highest scoring game (A&M) we had a huge TOP advantage. It showed. I'm not doing the Muschamp TOP thing. Rather: it limited our scoring chances last year. And we needed chances, like we do this year.
Norvell had 2 bad seasons. CBN would have the same leash CBN gets 2024 even if we have a losing season but the expectations would be for 9+ wins in 2024 Norvell won 10 games in his third season. There aren’t many coaches who stunk for 3 years then turned it around
That's easy 8 wins: win 7 games before winning another. 7 wins: win 6 games before winning another You can keep going all the way to 1 starting with 0 wins. Now, the hard part is figuring out how to score points while simultaneously keeping the other team from doing so. I don't think we've mastered that but when we do, we might just get to 1 win.
