3rd and 3 in 4 down territory.
And we bring in Gillon to throw a pick?

It’s 4 down territory….run it twice

Not sure why we are even playing this game. Sending the seniors out with another embarrassing loss does no one any good.
I’m glad to play this game. If just to piss you off.
Well you sound about as dumb as our players play.

Poor coach decision to not let the hot hand QB (Wilson) RPO on both 3rd or 4th down if necessary.

4th and 3 and we had a sack but didn’t set the edge. Simple things.

If you watched the breakdown of the play you saw that was 100% on the receiver

The int was on MBake. He didn't even try to catch it. Not a horrible pass.

Nothing like a bad bowl game to bring out the best in our fan base.



Don't look too much in to this bowl game. This is a tryout for next years team. You will probably see both QBs throughout the game. DL knows how depleted this team is. The arm chair QBs are out in perfect post season form on here.

We’re definitely hitting harder on defense. Just might not be in the right spot at the right time.
Good stops on D!

So with Lewis playing does that pretty much mean he is back next year?

I'm know this is asking a lot, but does anyone have a list of all the opt outs for App?
