Ugh we know this feeling too

Will someone on the coaching staff please finally call the defense out? Two close losses that gave up 59 and 48 points? That's horse$hit!

This. Maybe we can dig ourselves a bigger hole to climb out of next week.

We knew the offense would falter at some point. Of course who considers 41 points a failure. THE TECH DEFENSE THAT'S WHO!!
Defense was the failure again.

The sorry defensive play in OT aside, it's hard to believe the nation's second most prolific offense can play that badly in the first half and not get 2 flippin' yards when you have to.

The most questionable play call of the last series was 3rd down...no outlet on the rollout and Colby had to burn the play.

And the 4th and 3 to Holley had no chance.

We have beaten 1 team with a winning record and that was UTSA, Utah State is better than us, they made the plays and we didn't. I don't fault Cameron, when your defense is as bad as ours the pressure is on to make plays.

You are exactly right, made no sense.

It's really hard for me to say anything bad about this offense at all interceptions and all. You score 41 you should win, period. If we had the 80th ranked defense we win this and the aTm game an we're 11-0. Is it really so much to ask just not to be last, really? I don't get to keep my job being the worst at what I do, WHY DOES SPANGLER?????

Two endzones INT, Nelson low kick that was block, Banks gave up the ball on the kick-off return. Sorry, but this one is not all on the defence

The problem with the defense is we are slow! We need better athletes on D. 2 int's in the red zone and a blocked fg attempt are the difference. We had oppurtunities, but didn't capitalize. Still a great year for the Dawgs.

No, it's not, but they still put 41 on a top10 defense. Maybe if they didn't feel like they had to score 50+ every game to eek out a win we wouldn't see mistakes like this.

Spangler can't teach instinct. Our guys take horrible angles. That coupled with our apparent lack of speed makes us the worst D in the country.
But with that said, our scheme is crap and our blitzes are pointless. Time for a change at DC.
