That's the dagger.

A few good stops from the D early, but that last drive was painful

There is going to be so much turnover on Defense next year. We are going to suck but I predict 12-14 true or redshirt freshman to contribute. Defense is looking at 2017 to be competent -probably 2018 more realistic. Just get used to it. Rebuild hasn't even started on Defense. There's not much of use on that side of the ball

3 turnovers and we're still in the game. If the defense can grow a pair and not be so afraid to tackle and the offense cut back on the turnovers we still have a shot.

Our guys may not have played D1 athletics...so much like the snap, they can't answer that question.

all we have to do is find 5-6 guys with speed to match up with Houston skill guys and they will have it all figured out; not sure they will be able to find them in that locker room. Only chance is to score on every possession and win the turnover battle in 2nd half

Guys you got screwed on that non holding call. Instead of a 10 yard penalty they pick up 30 yards. Refs gifted them that TD...and I agree that the refs have to try to NOT see/call that. It was blatant holding.

Maybe he's been smoking weed constantly for years because he's always saying dumb stuff.

Comparing this season and the effort this staff is getting to anything from the previous regime is just asinine. Newsflash- we were 25.5 pt underdogs not sure what you're expecting to see

Some amazingly boneheaded plays tonight. Can't wait to turn over the roster

And I don't like the fact that we're already setting up excuses for the next year to suck on defense as well. We are in the American conference and we should be able to improve over this [deleted] show. We're going against 3 star players at best so don't tell me we can't be better than this. Yes we don't have the talent I get it, but there's no excuse for the way our defense is giving up such easy drives.

I can take defense that is outmanned and outgunned....our lack of talent is glaringly obvious...outschemed is on the coaches. We are a lot of the first two, and sadly some of the latter....that can't happen.
