Holy smolies

The question is whether this is a aberration or whether this is an indication of how we will play the rest of the season. I am much more concerned about the performance of the coach than the performance of the players. If we play and coach at this level for the remainder of the season, we will finish 1 and 11 and the losses will not be in OT. Coach Collins has to learn that some players perform better in games and some players perform much worse.

Exactly my thoughts. This is coaching 100%.

Vent.

This is the first time I’ve ever come on here after a game and bitched. Feel free to go back and look. But I feel strongly that these coaches need to stop ööööing around and start coaching football. This team looks like they were given the entire week off.

It was a very poor showing all around. It did not appear that we had a concrete gameplan for how to defend the option, which is inexcusable. If there is any silver lining in this clusterfuck, it's that I think the coverage ability of our secondary is our biggest strength (maybe punting) and we faced the one offense we'll see all year that renders that strength obsolete.

You’re taking a bitch view is what you’re taking. But keep apologizing for FCS losses. We’ll see how many it takes for your heart rate to rise.

We’re one Temple loss away from being Tennessee right now. Tenne life champion ssee. That’s what we’ve sunk to.

Nah you're the one acting like a little bitch. We were projected as a 3 or 4 win team. I'm not dumb enough to let this season turn me into an emotional basket case.

I agree. However, it concerned me that the DB's did not close on the runner more agressively. They were standing and watching too much.

Still gave a team trouble that has worlds more talent than we do. They also beat SC a few years back. It sucks that we lost to an FCS team that we have the talent to beat, but I don't think we need to fire the new coach or cancel the program just yet.

If you’re gonna blow smoke up everyone’s asses for the rest of the season, I demand that you change your avatar to Glenn from Talladega Nights.

I would like a cease and desist on all the gimmicky bullshit. Money downs, juice crew, ATL...seems to me that two thirds of the roster isn't really ATL but spots needed filling. If those guys were the A-team holy ööööing shit
 
Just got home -you mean this place hasn’t blown up to hell yet? I’m about to start drinking so give me time.

You better be a big $ donor the way you’re brushing off an FCS loss as growing pains while simultaneously condescending to people that actually give a shit about our W/L and recruiting.

You know how many OVs we had today with kids we were trying to flip? You think that was also in CGCs “overhaul” plan?

Forgive me for not being upbeat about possibly the worst loss in program history.

Hoping I do, it'd be a good part of the rebrand CGC is trying to pull off. Going from becoming a meme as we beat VPI in Blacksburg to making the schaedenfreude blog for losing to Citadel in a 5 year span is one hell of a re-brand!

What are you going to do if I'm not? Kick and scream some more? You're behaving like a small child.

not unless Memphis State has to go back and forfeit their win against us in 1981.

We beat #2 Alabama to open, lost to what would be 1-10 Memphis St by 13 at home 2 weeks later, ended 1-10.

So you’re not. Youre apologizing for an FCS loss and whining about people that aren’t happy about it.

But post “bitching” and “kicking and screaming” a few more times. It’ll keep you warm tonight when you remember the score.

Yes there have been. I was there in person for the Furman ‘83........ then there was Duke in ‘04 I believe......several others

I was also there for Furman 1983 and 1986. I knew guys on that Furman squad - that was a great team.

This is much worse. This loss is a failure of the coaching staff to prepare our team and to prepare a competent game plan.

Nah, I've already said it's a terrible loss. The coaching has to be be much better than what we saw today. I'm just not in "burn it all down" mode like some of you are.

To clarify, I’m not in “burn it all down” mode but I think Patenaude has worn out his welcome. It’s not lost on me that we don’t have the players to fit what we are trying to do but to look as inept as we have for the past 3 games and to have lost to an FCS team that was 0-2 coming into the game is inexcusable. We could have just run the ball 70 times and won but we kept getting cute.

He's gotta get better results as the season progresses, for sure. The whole QB roulette thing just looks dumb when only one of the two guys is actually effective. Instead of trying to run two different offenses for two different QBs, we need to accept that Oliver gives us the best chance to win for now and roll with him. Maybe when Graham is healthy give him some snaps as well if you want more of a passing threat, but LJ should not be seeing significant playing time. His passing ability is not good enough to justify playing time when he brings nothing else to the table.

Overhaul? That’s what you are going with? Did we kick off of last years players off of the team at some point?

We did lose quite a few. We are among the youngest teams in all of college football this year and the few seniors we have are learning a new system.
