Rutgers is not a good team. We are better than the ASH years, but we are below average. It’s Sad that we had an opportunity to make a bowl game, but it won’t happen this year. Next year will be Greg’s 5th year. It needs to be bowl game or bust. Greg needs to show tangible results.

Can’t blame the refs on that drive. The D just got gashed. It has to be demoralizing when the O does zip.

Defense overrated...two very impressive drives by msu that Kirk could only dream of

Can someone explain Greg’s comment to the halftime commentator that even though the defense was fired up, he told them they need to calm down. If the athletes are playing tough and in the zone, why would you stop them? This past drive by Michigan state showed a defense with a lack of energy.

Someone needs to sit Rochelle down and have a conversation about what his exact responsibility is.

As per usual, idiots (like you) are unable to grasp the concept of multiple factors affecting something.
Way to name call. People are too focused on refs when reality is that's not nearly as impactful as teams crummy performance. Idiot.

Their backup, freshman QB has 2 passing TDs, 1 rushing TD, 0 INT, and is 17 for 25 passing

Our seasoned captain is 9 for 19 with 0 TDs and 2 INTs

Would it kill this team to try to run something different. Trick play perhaps? Seem route to the TE? Screen pass? I Formation? Try something! We have 6 points against a garbage team
Tough to run a trick play in driving rain. But we need to try something different. We can't be destined to lose after the 2nd series of the game, because we can't do something different. Bad offensive philosophy, bad execution, QB play is bad, receivers have butterfingers...this is a bad football team.

Damn, you got that before I deleted it.. was going to back off since you ceded some ground to Rokodesh.

However, you opened the exchange by calling everyone complaining about refs idiots and now are whining about name calling.

Weak, sad, low energy.

Defense is fine. You aren’t going to hold teams to zero points.

Actually, believe that is our entire philosophy.
"We'll hold them to zero points. Offense only needs to score a couple."

Problem is that we don't seem to adjust after the other team scores points.
It's like we're surprised every week that the other team scores a couples TDs.

Michigan St 3rd string QB is more talented than Wimsatt. He is decisive and accurate. Good get by them. We really are 2 years away. Surace will quickly pass over Wimsatt.

Btw, defense tiring. This one will soon be over. Season done relative to Bowl Game.
I long for the day when the answer at QB is actually on the team and not in high school. Surace won't be the answer if it takes seven games for the OC to figure out that you can throw the ball in the middle of the field and that a TE isn't some useless appendage.
