I guess some things really never do change. Now staring at a 4-8 season. Terrible loss. Offense is atrocious. No quarterback play and everyone knew Rochelle was fumbling that ball. He has no business ever touching the ball on any kind of kick.
Plenty of game left. Just take that kid off of punt returns forever.

Damn I was hoping they might pay for their greed there. Sack but not a TO or time running out, maybe makes a diff on the FGA

I know I need patience and we are taking incremental steps to be better but sometimes I feel like they need to burn these unlucky plain *** uniforms and start from scratch. I know its not the uniform but for me its PTSD, nothing changes with this team. Im sorry .. I just wish we could be some semblance of a good football team that could win some big games from time to time. The refs do this crap to Rutgers because they can! When the team begins to win outright, the refs will stop the bs!

This is just a bad game all around. I'm not sure that, if we were to win today, that they would make me feel any better. Ok, a little.

Why can Rochelle not figure out the trajectory of a punt? He always misjudges and has to make last minute dives.

Rutgers home game, and all they keep showing is clips of Michigan State. Between that and the refs, still no respect from the B1G. I'm afraid were just not good enough yet to overcome **** like this. Not giving up,, but hope I'm wrong. We look horrible.

Well, that’s the ballgame. Rutgers very unlikely to overcome a two score deficit in good weather let alone rainy conditions
They’re still a mistake prone team so I won’t rule out anything.

Two scores is doable with sudden change etc and plenty of time left but 3 scores is worrisome

MSU is not good. I still have hope in this one. Play this 2nd half opening drive like it is 0-0 and get a td.

Refs and sloppy play are killing us. Punted zero times, forced two turnovers, and still down 11 at the half. That's incredibly hard to pull off.

You could hold a campus-wide try out for someone to simply catch punts/kicks.

I’m sure you can find someone more composed.

As it stands, it looks like #8 is going to cost us at least two winnable games and a bowl bid.

Again, it’s not his fault.
