The rout is officially on. No way to spin this one. Really poor effort across the board from the entire team.

Today doesn't feel that way. This feels like a game from last year. Surrendering 40+ points is almost guaranteed at this point. Gotta wonder if some kids are starting to throw in the towel.
We haven’t given up 60 yet. 😕

Either we play Tucker Melton and see what we’ve got with him or I’m completely out on Loeffler. This is pitiful QB play.

I’ve never had a clearer Vision of where we are. We need to get old. We need another year of weight room and nutrition. These kids I brought in are going to be rock stars, day 1 guys. We didn’t have a good week of practice…. Statistically, it was the right play.

Don't forget the....."I'm not going to use this place like other coaches have". Don't worry coach, you will never get a chance to do what the Kingston crew has done to BGSU.

The frustrating part is that a lot of what he says is legitimately true. We do need to get bigger and stronger, and we do need more experience. And I think we do even have a lot of talent on the roster.

But I’m starting to worry whether we’ll even do anything with them when they’re old, if we’re too stubborn to make adjustments right now, when it should be easy.

Seeing a guy with the last name of Beydoun is bringing back hockey memories of games with Michigan Tech.

I've got stuff to do the rest of the day, haven't watched anything past halftime. Will check the final.

If we wait until next week we eliminate the risk of losing a redshirt.
Second thought, given the score now, maybe let McDonald rest and give someone else some time out there.

I got home from coaching my kids soccer game and turn it on to see it's 31-17

I watch us suck in every phase of the game to make it 45-17

This is really tough to stomach. I'm sure we're too weak, too young, Babers screwed us over by not recruiting defenders and yadda yadda

You don’t beat Minnesota with no talent. You get smoked by Akron and Eastern et al by having shitty, stubborn, non innovative one dimensional coaching.

Teams have figured out the defense. 35, 34 and likely 50+ the last three games. Offense can't sustain drives and it's a recipe for disaster.

There's no excuses for today. Unprepared, poor effort, mental mistakes in all phases. Big step back.
