So far EVERYBODY they have faced has scored 30 or more pts on them besides Rice. Look at Tulane's defense. They are holding their opponents to ONLY 15 pts per game and we score 31 on them with a back up QB playing the entire 2nd half. We have the ability to win more games, we just need to put it all together and figure out how to win. I left a link with why I think they eat us alive. We have lost six straight to Houston and this is in Houston. Edited October 17, 2022 by Sk00b Mainly just how Houston always seems to find a way to beat us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the problem is this fan base slamming them for everything. I totally understand GB going down and taking losses if the backup is not as good. The problem that we have as a fanbase is the maniacal anger across the board. Instead of Screaming for CJS the press should be asking him why there is one side, or even more specifically group that has totally failed to progress during his tenure? What is being done to rectify that? Why would a player like Sanders who by all accounts was a good kid and played well here choose to go to NV when he is a "Bay Made" guy? This will obviously be construed as making excuses but has there been an area harder hit as far as injuries go? And I think they hit the db portal pretty hard but they haven't panned out for whatever reason so I'm not sure what you'd realistically expect him to say ..... as far as Sanders goes, maybe he was looking for playing in dry heat. Reasons for players leaving are far ranging but if he's local maybe someone can contact the family if an answer is really needed. Quote How can he sell building a culture, if he cant bring in, retain, and develop his players? Making a change at DB coach or even DC during the off week would send a strong message to the team and fans that these results are not USF worthy. Letting this simmer to the offseason will only result in losing talent and fans. Cutting loose assistant coaches during the season on an annual basis may not be a good look when trying to replace them ..... and who knows if the replacement will be able to do a better job. CJS has made his bed so let's see how the season plays out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, then we will struggle some. Marsh can't run the ball very effectively. We can beat Houston. They aren't as good as Cincinnati and Tulane, but we will have to play very well to win, similar to how we played vs. Cincinnati or the first half vs. Tulane. If we can do that, we will be in the game. They are not world beaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams are averaging 30+ against them - W Temple – No Defense or Offense. Our best opportunity for another win. - W SMU – No Defense. Teams scoring 40+ against them as well - W Tulsa – No Defense, lost to Wyoming, barely beat Northern Illinois and Navy put up 50+ against them. - W UCF – Good offense and Defense. At this point, we should be running on all cylinders - W Go Bulls!!!! We win the final games on the schedule ... we could be bowling. More importantly, an improvement from last season. Close Out STRONG! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can get GB and some defenders back and we contine to improve its possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peatearpan Posted October 17, 2022 Group: Member Topic Count: 43 Content Count: 2,588 Reputation: 885 Days Won: 3 Joined: 11/30/2018 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I agree that we are so close. I do think these close losses hurt more because of scenario A happened instead of Scenario B, we could be a 4 win team right now. Our already bad D has had so many injured players this year. We have depth, but I still think there is a clear gap between the 1s and 2s. Great example of that is Gerry going out. Marsh came in and was a serviceable QB. He is also not as mobile of a QB, so the game plan changes and that momentum we had is gone. Coach Scott is right, to an extent, that some of these games are different by a couple plays. Big explosive plays have killed us on D all year, if we could take away one or two of those we may be singing a different tune about this coaching staff. He has done the right thing about getting rid of Glen Spencer. I am glad that Weiss is gone as well. So far Trickett has shown that he is an able coach. I feel that the D is a combination of talent, injuries, and playcalling not being done in a timely manner (that is the one thing that truly irks me the most).
