We scored 17 against Maryland which was typical of 2014. Based on the raw numbers I think we need to see the rest of the season. The most concerning stat is 81% of games we score less than 22 points. We won't win a conference unless this improves drastically. Edited September 22, 2015 by Gismo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because those heartbreakers should be easier to fix. I mean the blow outs are bad. I was explaining it to a non football fan and they said it sounds like they are competing on too high a level.

Look at the games we have won, it really looks like Taggart is out of his league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will agree that the play calling was more than questionable at times in the game. Two bad plays on offense and it was like a cannon ball hit our sail. The dropped pass on the deep ball and the collision of two players in the endzone breaking up another td proved to kill us. It was a very ugly game that we just didn't take advantage of and allowed a broken play to give up a late first half score. All and all I don't think we will be in bad shape when it comes to conference games. Three games in and most of us will admit that it's a better team and performance that last year. Hell, we played FSU on the road tough which makes me feel like we have the potential to compete and win. No we just have to rid those mental mistakes and we will be fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only game we may win is UCONN, maybe UCF, and that is a maybe. It is now entirely possible that we may not win another game this year. That is not "sky is falling mentality" it is looking at how every other team we play has performed so far this year vs. how we have looked.

That is not "sky is falling mentality" it is looking at how every other team we play has performed so far this year vs. how we have looked. I'm sorry but how can you base your thoughts of possible wins or I guess losses in your case on how everyone else has played up to this point? So, you say we "maybe" beat UCF how gave up nearly 500 yards at home to Furman? The logic seems to be faulty in MHO. Defense was playing great up until that last game, and I think we are all still wondering what happened. FSU wore us down, Maryland kept our line out of the backfield(which was our staple to start), and we were getting scoring chances. Some bad play calls and a few dumb plays on the payers parts and we lost worse than what the scoreboard reflected. We will be fine and everyone just needs to relax and get behind this team. I see more fight in this team than all of the last five years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sorry but how can you base your thoughts of possible wins or I guess losses in your case on how everyone else has played up to this point? Um, that is how Vegas does it, that is how the playoff committee does it. That is how everyone in America does it. So, you say we "maybe" beat UCF how gave up nearly 500 yards at home to Furman? Yes, I think that may be our most winnable game. The logic seems to be faulty in MHO. ? Defense was playing great up until that last game, and I think we are all still wondering what happened. We are 1-2, with that win coming to maybe the worst team in college football. FSU wore us down, Maryland kept our line out of the backfield(which was our staple to start), and we were getting scoring chances. We will continue to make excuses like this every time we lose. Some bad play calls and a few dumb plays on the payers parts and we lost worse than what the scoreboard reflected. It is what it is, scoreboard. We will be fine and everyone just needs to relax and get behind this team. Been saying/hearing that for five years now. Getting behind a team does not help with W/L column. I see more fight in this team than all of the last five years. Does fight come with Ws? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
