To be honest, we don’t deserve to be SBC champs, regardless of our record in a pathetic conference. We’ve lost 3 out of 4 non conference games.

our defense, although far from perfect, has kept us in all the games this year... unfortunately playing from behind every game is not a very good game plan!

Just an embarrassing performance all around. Stupid penalties cost us again. I guess people can call a spade a spade now.

105 yards in penalties not counting the ones that were declined, and the one that was not called.

I certainly understand the disappointment as I am sure all App fans are disappointed. However, lets not jump off a bridge. First off this was not a sunbelt game and secondly UMASS is better than their record suggests. Just look at the number of close games they had as they could easily be a winning football team. On to the next one...

They were talking about Satterfield going to a P5 school. As bad as they looked today against an outmanned team, I doubt he’ll get any offers. Looked completely unprepared and lost.

Terrible play calling. There was a 4th and 1 that we went for and didn't get at a pretty decent spot on the field that I thought we should have kicked a FG on. Sure would have been nice to have 3 more.

Penalties killed us too. We have got to become more disciplined.

Still should have won the game.

Better win out now to get the conference. Anything less with this team is a disappointment. The play calling and just not willing to throw the ball against weaker competition finally bit us too.

Given our rash of injuries, I'm not sure that UMass was outmanned.

Holding call on the TD play was the killer IMO.

That is true. I was trying to figure out why I'm not more upset by this and you hit the nail on the head.

What in the Hell does this game have to do with winning the SB conference? what is pathetic is your statement ---

In reality, this game meant nothing other than the number on the W side and the number on the L side - has no relevance to anything else - Get a grip ---
Yes it was a miserable game - I can't believe I spent 6 hours watching this game - everything about it was ugly ---

And that has what to do with whether we deserve to win the conference? If we win out from here, we will be conference champs. And if we do that, we will sure as hell have deserved it. How weak or strong the conference may be, its OUR conference and winning it will always be better than not.

I guess we just aren't a very good football team this year. Undisciplined and unexplosive on offense. I predicted we'd finally put it all together today and get a big win. Unfortunately I'm now realizing what we've seen this season is us "all put together". And it's just a mediocre team.

Whatever bowl we fall into, I'm not confident we have a shot at winning. It's a good thing our conference is absolute trash.

Forget the yards. The big penalty stat that killed us was 14 pounts taken off the board!
