We can win this game if we play with a Never-Nervous attitude
But if we come out like we don't care, Louisville is just gonna lay us out on a table and fuck us 10/12/2014 10:11:30 PM |

we're gonna get dick raped. Has a coach ever started his career 0-12 at a school other than Duke?? I'm sick of this shit. Everyone hated O'Brien but I bet you money his ass wouldn't be 0-12 in the ACC over the past 2 seasons. Bring me 6-6 to 8-4 every season with a bowl game please. Its about time we stop kidding ourselves that we're ever gonna be in the elite discussion and take what we can get. Its not like Doeren is really lighting it up on the recruiting trail. Sure, hes gotten 1-2 of the Top 10 in NC his first two years. Whoa baby, look out ACC with that f'ing recruiting haul. Christ almighty what a joke this program is. And no matter if they do recruit better, they haven't shown an ability to coach any position or make an in-game call that will help us win in any situation. 10/13/2014 12:46:09 AM |

I refuse to believe Doeren is going to do anything other than lose by multiple touchdowns but the early movement on the line is headed in our direction, which is baffling to me

Louisville gets cocky and eats a ton of Papa John's before the game. Petrino has to forfeit when all his players come down with the shits something fierce.
We still somehow find a way to lose. 10/13/2014 8:11:23 AM |

this is the dumbest fucking argument ever. with TOB and DD it's not an either/or thing. TOB needed to go. You can surely argue that DD was the wrong guy to hire, but it's stupid to say we shouldn't have fired TOB.10/13/2014 8:11:28 AM |

What happened to all the people talking about bowl eligibility and selection?? 10/13/2014 8:53:58 AM |
dmspack oh we back 25463 Posts user info edit post |
^i'll be the first to say i was pretty confident in our chances to get to a bowl before the BC game.
But it's pretty hard to see many (any?) winnable games remaining on the schedule after that debacle. The only saving grace, kinda, is that after this week we have a bye leading into @Cuse. Which isn't unwinnable. Although I'd much rather that be at home. Then we still have Wake at home. And another open week before @UNC. So maybe we can regroup at the bye week, come out and get our shit together. That's wishful thinking I know, but I'm looking for something to grasp onto here 10/13/2014 9:02:04 AM |

Beat Wake and Cuse for bowl eligibility. That's absolutely doable.
Beat UNC for icing on top and get 7 wins.
If you asked everyone before the season if we could go bowling and beat UNC they would have taken that in a heartbeat. 10/13/2014 9:22:51 AM |

the somewhat silver lining, is that preseason 5-2 was really the best we could be realistically looking at right now. with last week's BC game as a real toss up, even in preseason. so to be 4-3 isn't necessarily unfathomable. and in fact, a lot of people probably expected us to be 4-3 (0-3) right now. it's just been a rather demoralizing last two weeks after feeling sorta positive about things after the dominating win over USF and then playing tough with FSU.

Hines and MVS both listed #1 on the depth chart at their positions. Thuney back at LG. Adams or Barr at RG.
Lots of true freshmen moving up the depth chart thanks to these suspensions.

Man.....you are just a delight to be around, ain't ya?
Christycakes. Being able to bitch and moan about a shitty team is a sacred right of a disgruntled fanbase. It's a sort of morbid curiosity that keeps fans from completely checking out. Because, let's be honest, the other alternative is to just be fairweather and completely walk away until the bandwagon gets rolling again. Some might even argue that the only saving grace of a train wreck is to be able to watch it unfold. I'm sorry that reality is killing your vibe, man.10/13/2014 1:02:49 PM |

It's better than 0-11.
It's also avg for us all time. We all want more, but 7-6 > 3-9. If they'd known they could have gotten a proven commodity from a bigger conference, then by all means. But our first choice was a MAC guy who benefitted from FBS Affirmative Action for Crap Conferences and played in a bowl they probably didn't deserve.
Or are you one of those blithering idiots who expects us to get Bill Cowher?10/13/2014 1:47:14 PM |
