I bet Zach is pissed. They should all be pissed. Let's see some emotion in the 2nd half.

I never had my hopes up for this season. I always had us somewhere between 5-7 and 7-5 coming into the season because of the o-line and an unknown at QB.

I know that people want an answer for how to solve the o-line, but it just isn't there. The desperate stab at Stavion Lowe right before the season started should have been a sign.

The only time they get yards running is after they complete a few passes, and the other team has to back players out of the box. If we are blocking 4 with our 5, we can run. But if they even the numbers out, we are toast. We haven't been able to run right at all. if they went triple wingback with Line, Wembley and doak walker in the backfield, it would get blown up because they would stack the line and our o-line struggles to win individual battles and never gets off to the second level like last years line did.

I just think it is what it is. It isn't a Palcic thing, he hasn't had a chance to recruit players yet. He is dealing with the hand that he got dealt. The younger o-linemen, including Lasecki have a lot of potential, and I think the line as well as the QB position will be a lot better next year (and so will the secondary for that matter), but it is what it is right now.

Regardless, WE SHOULD BE AT MINIMUM, COMPETITIVE WITH FREAKIN' TULANE. WE ARE NOT.

FIRE JUNE JONES.

Just realized that I haven't seen my boy Spike Diesel - Aaron Davis. Is he injured? In the dog house?

I think Parks pulled his hammie on that first TD.

EuropeTV hasn't shown the sidelines, yet.

Is JJ still coaching? Or did he get fired at halftime?
