Good article on the football season from the Daily Campus

So the football writer for the DC wrote a pretty good article listing the reasons why we didn't go bowling....and i agree with all. They're pretty much the same stuff we complain about here..

10. Preseason hype

This had nothing to do with us not making a bowl. Our performance during the season is all that kept us out.

9. Playcalling

Coaching

7. Fourth and one against Houston
6. Two first and goals against Rice

Specific instances of #9 -- Coaching

5. Third down conversions

Caused by #9 -- Coaching

3. Inability to win on the road
2. Losing to North Texas

Sign of ineffective Coaching

1. The inability to play a full game

Coaching


I detect a pattern...
