this offense frustrates the heck out of me.  I'm ready for the 3rd string QB.  You can't have a guy with a broken wing.  Those 5 yard penalties just kill us.  

why does no one use the chat?  So much better flow.

1) The winning team:  Navy
2) The final score:  34-23
3) Bulls leading rusher:  Sands
4) Bulls leading receiver:  McDoom
5) Bulls total offensive yards (closest without going over):  269

Don't count on him being back.  I don't know the exact reason why he's been suspended, but I do know that his return is highly unlikely. 

Yeah, I'm not expecting, especially after reading his Tweets.  Maybe Last Chance U?

What came first, the drops or the declining targets?

Good question (unless it's rhetorical, and I just don't know the answer.)

C’mon you all can’t tell me that Blake isn’t on your lists. 
 

I was giving him a break as he was getting killed due to lack of protection and now he's done for the year.  But yeah...that's a fair add to the list.

Wilcox.  Big disappointment half way thru his senior year.

Atterbury.  As big a disappointing senior year as Wilcox.

I think Wilcox is as disappointed as anyone.  I don't blame him...he's getting fewer looks and QB play has been lame.  He's already hit a career high 4 TDs...so he's making the most of his targets.

Maybe those few targets are because he can't catch?

He caught well last year...at least mostly, with some excellent numbers.  I think some WRs just lose focus if they rarely get targets.  Not excusing that, but just my feeling.

With Barnett now done for the year, and McCloud's throwing hand banged up, passing game may struggle.  Hopefully the OL can pound on defenses to lighten the QB load.

Terrence Horne:  the most explosive burst on the scene player since Marlon Mack.  The ACL tear early last year was devastating, but I was hopeful he'd be close to fully recovered for this season.  We're halfway thru the season,  and he's barely been seen...4 catches for 26 yards.  I understand not returning kicks...thankfully Sanders is very good.  But I'm not sure if it's QB struggles or lack of playing time, but it feels like this season is mostly lost for him.  The good news:  he's just a RS freshman.

Randall St. Felix:  after an awesome freshman year, he's only got 7 catches, 1 TD.  He's a dynamic receiver.  I know he's had a few drops, but I wonder if some of that is the frustration or lack of concentration from seeing so few targets.

McArthur Burnett:  I was hoping another UF transfer would bolster our secondary, but I don't even recall seeing him play (maybe I just didn't see him on the field).  Just a junior, but our secondary can use the help.

Any other players you guys had great expectations for this season, but aren't seeing?

I just went back & read his most recent Tweets.  I'd be (pleasantly) surprised if he plays here again.  I just wish he's get it together, as he's such a weapon.

Sorry you are not going again. Would be great to see you again.

Likewise.  I'm sure I'll get up there again.  My daughter finished college in Boston and just moved to LA, so my trips to NE are fewer.  That was a fun game, all the way till the Adams KO fumble and the game killing personal foul to extend Navy's last drive (can't recall the DB.  Maybe Johnny Ward?).  Enjoy the game.

Went there a few years ago.  Great atmosphere...you WILL get goose bumps on the flyover & pre-game procession. And, even though we lost, you can't get mad at the players or fans...pure class.

We went up to DC for a few days, then rented a car for the day and drove up...maybe an hour away.  Annapolis is a small, but pretty city.  Truly a great road game.

Opened this thread to see & weigh in on the USF game changers.  After a few pages, it turned to "KB sux, no he doesn't".

In addition to the players named earlier, I like Macon, Studstill and Weaver.  I feel bad for McDoom, as he was wide open for 2 TD bombs...and badly missed.  I also feel for St. Felix, as we're wasting him.

Kudos to the OL for finally getting pissed & asserting its will v the BYU line.  If they get nasty & win most battles, we could do very well.

Now...back to the exhausting back & forth on Kerwin Bell

Congrats, Nostradamus! You only missed the yards by 40 or so...impressive!

In fairness, it should have been 29-23   Great call...even better win.

Thanks, it really did seem kind of odd coming from him, but I was kind of baked when I read the tweet and it struck a chord, timer going off now that the pizza is ready. Was Ocala being funny or serious, missed that satirical message as well.

I have to think he was kidding, too.  

I have 4 extra, section 111 club.  Can't make the game.  2 parking passes.  I'd have to transfer to Ticketmaster account.  First to message me...hate to waste.

I don’t really agree with “but imagine how funny they’d be if they didn’t smoke pot” that was their whole shtick, without it they were just a couple of guys.  Life is short, moderation and laughter is really the key, wish he could refrain during the season, he could just chug beer like the rest of us did in our younger years.

that's a parody account...and that Tweet is DRIPPING with sarcasm.

1) The winning team:  USF
2) The final score: 38-34
3) Bulls leading rusher:  Cronk
4) Bulls leading receiver:  Weaver
5) Bulls total offensive yards (closest without going over):369

making my first trip to Ray Jay, and hoping this team digs in & plays a physical game and pulls off the upset to save the season.

I like WR Weaver, true freshman.  He did what we don't see enough of on a critical passing play.  While McCloud scrambled for his life, Weaver saw it & ran to an open spot that McCloud could easily find & hit.  WR's helping QBs (and blocking downfield) are PURE GOLD.

Great pic.  Brad, why have a thread & chat?  The chat is quicker & easier to follow, especially when watching the game.

Bryce Miller is the Wes Welker of USF.  Great hands and knows how to get open.  He needs to see more passes.

These passing plays are taking forever to develop does Bell know what the screen pass is?  Or some quick slants something quicker than drop back and wait 4-5 seconds

I've been begging for this since Strong got here.

thanks for the link...perfect quality!

1) The winning team:  USF
2) The final score: 37-24

1) The winning team:  Bad guys (SMU)
2) The final score:  34-17
3) Bulls leading rusher:  Ford
4) Bulls leading receiver:  St.Felix (he HAS to get more targets)
5) Bulls total offensive yards (closest without going over):  269

I hate predicting a loss, but SMU is killing it with the Texas QB transfer, and I feel like we're still finding our offense.  I do like our defense getting stronger each week...the transfers have really been a win.
