Don't guess there was a chance any of them was named Guice?Quote:

And ANYONE who argues we have a talent problem and NOT a coaching problem doesn't have a clue about football. We flat got outcoached (yet again) tonight. Rice's coaches were probably laughing their asses off at our simple-minded staff all night. How many series did they use #35 at QB, and how many times did they throw with him in the game? Once. And how many times did we leave at least two players 15-20 yards off the ball? Every down. They were doing nothing but ramming the ball down our throats, and we made zero adjustments to stop it. And offense? I won't even get started there or I'll never quit typing. Our linemen may not be the best, but no line would succeed when the entire stadium knows what play is coming next.
PLayers probably just now catching up to the coaches. The coaches quit on the players a long time ago.

The play-calling, among other things, was really bad. Case in point, after Harris had the long run on our first series, I was thinking "please don't call the EXACT same play," and we called the exact same play. We had some success in the first series by keeping them off-balance and varying our formations. By the end of the game, we were running the same crap over and over with the same formation--MEMO: "OUR OFFENSE IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO DO THAT!"
I mention the first couple of series because I think the outcome had as much to do with our INABILITY to sustain drives on offense as it did with their ability to sustain drives against our defense.
I called the Harris fumble! Ah, sorry about that. After the long run to make it first and goal, I said, ooops! needed to score on that play. Now, he'll fumble, as we always do on goal to goal plays. Sure enough.....just like clockwork.
And then, I was shouting to our LB, Cobb? who scooped up their fumble "get down! before you...." ooops again! too late, just like the NC State game, we fumbled it back and they scored a TD. Man! nothing has changed since the NC State game. Mediocre (at best, with a stretch) teams beating the crap outta us.
That is not entirely true. We did move our safeties down considerably in the second half. Rice then proceeded to beat us pretty good through the air.Quote:

I thought our wideouts actually played better, both in catching the ball and blocking. This is still very much a problem with our talent level than our coaching, IMO. We have not been recruiting well enough the past several years.
