I am so tired of this.

Post by Bleeding Orange »

You probably think I'm talking about our defense or our special teams. I'm not.

I'm talking about the negativity around here. The first half isn't even over and how many threads have been started since kickoff about how bad we are?

Yes, I question the fandom of many people around here. Get pissed if you like and tell me how orange my galsses are. I don't care. You people are ridiciulous.

Honestly, tell us we don't have the right to be frustrated with this. Our special teams coaching is horrible.

I wish Omar would run once.

How's this? Greg Brandon walks on water. Our players have the best tackling technique I have ever seen. Our kickers are dead on solid through the uprights everytime. Our offense is showing outstanding production on the ground and through the air. Time management is second to none on this team. I don't see anything wrong with our team after three games this year. We are headed for success no matter who the opponent is.

The only thing that is over is Jacob's Heisman chances...after today he has no chance at getting into NY. He also probably lost his 1st round draft status if he was to go early...more incentive to stay next year..


The MAC still can be won. not an entire waste...just no BCS but face it that was a slim to no chance at all anyways

Yeah, i think folks are really just frustrated with the offense and how Omar hasn't been able to produce...therefore sliding him down the Heisman ladder and maybe off it..

Yeah, this game could be costing Omar millions of $, but on the plus side, we might get to keep him an additional year.

then again it may not...Big ben had one bad game his last season with 3 INT's against Iowa yet he went on to be big time in the NFL

Omar may not be a 1st rounder but he can perform and make his money by earning it first unlike someone like Eli Manning who gets 50 Million just for being 1st pick

I respect your opinion BO, but what exactly is there to be positive about right now?

I'm telling no one how to be a fan. I'm telling you guys that you are not dealing with the reality of college sports. Period.

If you all had waited until mid-way through the second half to start ripping on this team, fine. But the first quarter? That is what is ridiculous.

If you don't like it, fine. Like I said, I don't give a sh*t anymore. Some of you can't see what is important after losing our opener. Some of you people are simply hopeless, in my opinion.

Let me have your best. Don't care. I can take it.

I appreciate that, Drew. I'm not saying that there is a lot to be positive about by any stretch of the imagination. But, to come down on kids who are not being paid and who are only out there because they want to play and want to win is not right. Hold the coaching staff accountable. Not one young man on this team can to BGSU to lose. Same goes for our men's soccer team who hasn't won a game in two years. These guys are giving it their all.

I'm just as frutsrated as anyone right now, but I'm not going to sit here and call anyone out. We all seemed so certain of how this season was going to go before it ever started, but the beauty of college sports is that there is no certainty. A lot of people have forgotten that around here and you've ended up treating this program like a professional franchise. It isn't. Learn to live with.

Live with the lows, celebrate the highs. LIVE WITH the lows, CELEBRATE the highs. That is all.

Dude, we flat out sucked tonight. No need to wait until halftime. They had no fire. I watch enough football to know when a team has absolutely no fight in them, and that's us this evening.

Then we get our beloved head coach saying that our offense is confused by what the defense is doing, guess who that falls on?

This team is not a good football team; at our best we're only good at 1/3 of the game, and that is not the right way to build a football team. www.firegreggbrandon.com will cost $50 to buy, but I'm thinking we should go together and get him a nice suit for his interview at Kentucky.

When you have no defense if you get behind early thats the game my friend.

You may be suprised to hear that I wouldn't disagree with you there.
