anybody doubting me now? Better not be.

Thumping our chests after beating THAT team like that? No thanks…..that’s how we should have beaten SUU, Idaho and Dixie….so you’ll excuse me if I’m still not sold…especially after the way the O-line looked in pass protection today.

THAT team just took presumptive conference champs Sac State to the wire last week. AGS.

You said we were back on track after Idaho, and then we laid an egg against SUU.

Like I said, if we can string two great games together, I'll feel a lot better.

No offense intended, but beating a terrible UNCO team means absolutely nothing. There are few teams in the conference that are as bad, top to bottom, as them.

I like your confidence….you’ll pardon me if I’m just not quite there yet.

I think we've seen enough to know what we have. When remotely healthy we have a top 5 team that can beat ranked FBS teams on the road. When beat up we have a team that relies on defense and ST to eek out wins. Looks to me like we're getting healthy agian.

Me either, and I won't be till we can field an offensive line that can actually protect a quarterback for more than 1/2 second while dropping back. Lots of room for improvement in some other areas as well, but IMHO, that is the MOST glaring one right now.

Healthy in some areas, worse in others (O-line, D-Line, anyone?). D-Line is super thin right now, and O-line is basically 2nd/3rd string from the center over to the RT. That is NOT a recipe for success…..

If we beat NAU 35-0, I'll feel a lot better.

The good news: win, by any margin, and we're in.
Sounds like a cat comment from the early 2000s. It is pretty sad we have resorted to being second-class football citizens.

While I've got you all gathered here today, I have a couple questions.

1. How do they call they plays in from the sideline, as they don't huddle much?
2. If a player graduates and still has eligibility left, how many classes do they need to take in graduate school?
anybody?

Good point. On the other hand I think the cats have a couple BSC championship trophies since 2009 . Gas is like $4+ a gallon. Grocery shelves are empty. Inflation is out of control. It’s all cyclical. I vote moving games back to the new dornblazer field to complete the cycle until we get this shit figured out
