There must've been some begging going on, judging by the lack of effort in a number of games.
I couldn't agree more - we trailed East Carolina 45-7 at halftime, a team that finished 3-6 for the season, a team that lost by 20 points to traditional power Georgia State. ECU scored on all seven first-half possessions - we miraculously held them to a field goal on their last possession of the half. It was frustrating and humiliating to watch - a total lack of effort.
On at least a dozen occasions I yelled "You're allowed to tackle him" at the tv. I don't think they heard me.
