the OL was supposed to be a strength, but our Memphis is kicking their ass
2010 team was mostly competitive at least. This team is way past awful.

When the D plays this badly, the offense has to score all the time to keep up.

Right now Memphis' defense is outscoring our offense.

I think I'm more worried about our offense than defense. And that is with an opening drive that looked good for us.

Meh. It's pointless to focus anywhere. 3 turnovers, no yardage, 2 picks off receivers' hands another that was just awful from the qb, multiple stupid plays on kick returns to pin ourselves back.

And oh yeah absolutely no resistance from our defense when they get the ball.

At this point every unit on this team is hot garbage. And the coaching is bad too.

Anybody picking one specific area to bitch about is just grinding an axe

That drive showed it all ... no more Knapke. It has to be Morgan time.

Only 10 players on the field for the punt? That falls on the special teams coach. Players walking off the field on 4th down. I would bench them players next possession. Show some DAMN leadership!!!

We are seeing the results of two years of "offense is the best defense." The system is gone and we're seeing how woeful player development was under the prior regime.

Wake is now 4-0. I wonder what could have been had we gotten a coach which would have continued what Clawson built.

And now we've got receivers noticeably pissed agree another poor throw, and cannot get our punt team on the field. This is a joke of epic proportions

Did Baber's leave the cupboard this empty? We don't match up well anywhere. I hope they can switch to another game to broadcast.

I do like Western Michigan beating GA So. 42-17

35-3 after one quarter......we F-in suck beyond belief. And the 2010 team would kick the s**t outta this team. The 2000 team would beat these guys too. This might be the worst ever.
GO BG!!!

I don't think it's at all fair to blame Babers for this s**t show. It's not his fault players don't seem to care, cannot get on the field when they need to, or a bunch of them bolted the program when he did. Hell he actually won games with this same QB 2 years ago.

The team lost a ton of talent. But it's not lack of talent or the previous coach's fault that these guys cannot even hustle or perform the very basics of being a football team.
EIU hasn't had much trouble since Dino left...they built on what he started there and they lost a high draft pick qb the year he left

My chief criticism of the Dino teams was that they were S-A-W-F-T...SAAAAAAAWWWWFT. This team is sweeter and softer than a Cinnabon served on a pillow.

Don't know if Jinks is trying to change that culture or not...but I have a hard time believing this jog around like a fruit approach flew much in Texas :)
