I don't really know how to say this other than to just say it:
Maryland is going to kick the **** out of us. 4 missed field goals, a punt return blocked, a pass interference call in the endzone to get our offense on the 1 yardline, and a flagrant foul on Clemson voiding a Touchdown are the only reasons we even smelled a victory last week.
Our team looks like dog poo. The defense played lights out, and the special teams played great for a change, but last I checked offense wins games and our offense is in one word: TERRIBLE!!!
Tashard's stats were overblown because of a fluke 3rd and 15 run by Tashard that miraculously went for 30 yards and a 1st down. Here's what I don't understand. Its 3rd and 15 and enough time in the game for an offense like Clemsons, which is a one strike offense, to still have a chance to win, and you call a run play when we need to keep a drive alive? Do you think Gailey and Bond TRULY thought that play would go for a first down? Yeah, I bet.
These are the absolute worst wide receivers I have seen at GT since the days pre-Harvey Middleton. We have an offense that looks so one dimensional, that if I were to detail it on paper, it may not actually have 4 sides.
Don't forget this is a Fridge coached team and last year he marched a worse team into BDS that probably should have beaten us. Fridge needs a big win for his program and I completely expect their fledgling QB to have a Godsey like coming out party against our defensive backs. And speaking of our DB's, God Bless them, but I know some fat out of shape old guys who relive the glory days on the flag football field, that don't give 10 yard cushions in coverage.
Fridge is going to spread the field with 4 wide outs and 1 back, and hitch and go us all day. Also, he will use the draw to the RB to take advantage of our blitzing defense. Expect record yardage because our defense is certainly not capable of back to back performances.
Its going to get ugly. If this game was at home, I might have some hope, but on the road? It sucks when a team with a turtle mascot bows up and smacks us down.
I don't see how the Swagger Coordinator is going to prepare this team for the ass beating they are about to receive. Until our coach removes himself from all things offensive, then we will continue to struggle.
I said the wheels would come off last week, and I was wrong only in timing. Not only do the wheels fall off, but the engine runs out of gas. Expect the total implosion by our fan base and this program is going to be sent into a spiraling downfall the likes of which Bill Lewis could be proud of.
I was planning on waking up early heading over to Coaches Corner (our local sports bar) for some early game day and Tater Tots (courtesy of wesley). But I changed my mind. I'm going to sit in a dark closet in my underwear and hold onto a blanket while I get absolutely hammered. Once the smoke clears, I will arise from my home made bunker and face the reality that we indeed stink and will never achieve more than just a fleeting glimpse of our storied past. Oh how I wish I lived in 1952.
