    You gripe about boring.. not this year…. lol.
    See, this is part of the problem: meeting expectations is exceeding expectations to some.

    I'm not asking for much out of a coach. Win the games you're supposed to win (Northwestern,) beat a P5 and win the conference every once in a while, make other teams in the conference respect us, and don't get us featured on ESPN multiple times per season because of the embarrassing way we lost a game or played football.

    The rest of the world outside of Tech thought MSU and SMU would handle Tech easily. Everybody outside of Tech is impressed and surprised at how good Tech is (could easily be 3-0 and looking at the Top 25). Your heart is broken so you’re not thinking clearly.

    This was a heartbreaking loss. But they didnt have a chance to knock it down.

    An SMU player had a decent heads up play to make that catchable for his team. I wish our Defense at that spot werent all so focused on the ball and some had blocked out the area a bit, that wouldve saved it.

    Screw what “should” have happened in any of the games we threw. We were in a position to win at least 15 games that our scheme or lack of coaching lost for us. That’s coaching and good coaches win those games. Holtz is not a good coach.

    Your heart is not broken because you never expected to win. Neither did I because I know what a loser Holtz is in meaningful games. Not sure what part of 8 wins and a meaningless bowl game makes you happy but it is slowly killing our program. If we get in the AAC I’ll rethink it. If not, all those bowls meant nothing

    We couldn’t afford the guy who just beat him with the Hail Mary.

    Or we are 1 play away from being 0-3. What’s your point?

    And the fact that nobody expects us to be good under a coach with this much tenure is very telling IMO.

    I don’t let it get to me anymore. At the end of the day, its all very meaningless. But kind of loss hurts! It was Sonny. Skip out-coached him, justice was robbed. It doesn’t seem fair that SMU got the win. But history will only show 39-37 loss. Sucks.
