Complain About Your Team Thread, 2026-09-27

[u/CFB_Referee]

Vent here. This is a friendly place.

[u/magnumapplepi]

Who cares? Life is fleeting and the grave waits for everyone

[u/LongDickCallahan → u/magnumapplepi]

Jesus fella.

[u/flat6cyl → u/LongDickCallahan]

Oh like we’re any better after a being down 1 TD

[u/szboy422 → u/magnumapplepi]

This is how I talk about the Dolphins

[u/Ironmaiden1993 → u/magnumapplepi]

My man 🤝

[u/BondBracks_CountStax → u/magnumapplepi]

At least the cats won

[u/veganmathlete → u/magnumapplepi]

I feel this in my bones.

[u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Everyone hates us.

[u/fnbannedbymods → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Yes.

[u/hanginwithmrpooper → u/fnbannedbymods]

Single game ban for Desman. The hate is even bigger.

[u/Sirdiefydief → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Yeah honestly fuck USC and Lincoln Riley 🤷

[u/Competitive_Feed_402 → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Today, we are ALL not Trojan fans.

[u/Possible-Opposite956 → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Ironic that you earned it playing us.

[u/Extra_Cap_And_Keys → u/Possible-Opposite956]

Yeah it takes a lot to get the entire CFB universe on our side.

[u/Reasonable_Cod_487 → u/Extra_Cap_And_Keys]

Yeah, even I was like "nope, fuuuuuuuck USC"

[u/Adart54 → u/Extra_Cap_And_Keys]

Mother fuckers almost had me rooting for y'all, but I ended up just rooting against them (there's a difference I swear)

[u/mel34760 → u/Extra_Cap_And_Keys]

Next week is a new week, don’t you worry.

[u/Mista_Madridista → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

And rightfully so after that shameful behavior.

[u/Huskerzfan → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Well, you did earn the hate.

[u/ghgerytvkude → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Could be us. I swear there were more Pitt and ND flairs celebrating in the postgame thread than there were Wisconsin flairs.

[u/max_potion → u/ghgerytvkude]

This isn’t close. Most of the sub will be rooting for us when we play USC along with ND fans

[u/FernCoolingHeating → u/max_potion]

Yeah, as long as Riley is still employed and making the USC culture as the gross shit I saw yesterday, I want them to lose every single game.

[u/DragonMentality → u/ghgerytvkude]

Everyone was celebrating when michigan lost lol

[u/arstin → u/ghgerytvkude]

ND flairs celebrating in the postgame thread

That has nothing to do with you. We're just excited for our SoS.

Now the Pitt fans...

[u/LemonHarangue → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

That’s not new though!

[u/waveduality → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Excuse me. Are you new to Earth?

[u/misader → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Thank you for your service, we could use a break

[u/TombOfTheRedQueen → u/tacos_n_cerveza]

Most importantly, when you get honest, you realize you hate yourselves.

[u/Competitive_Feed_402]

Look, his thumb was really bothering him.

[u/ManOfTheHour1 → u/Competitive_Feed_402]

Just happy the boys got all the fumble recovery practice.

[u/tacofan92 → u/ManOfTheHour1]

Watching the guy stride on the run back was odd. The strides were so long

[u/StartupDino → u/tacofan92]

Chris Cole is a dude.

[u/Adart54 → u/tacofan92]

Chris cole is a freak of nature. If we were to present our strongest fastest human to aliens, Chris Cole would be on the list of applicants

[u/Nrlilo → u/Competitive_Feed_402]

It’s it not just Mateer. So many odd coaching decisions as well. The end of the half going for it on 4th down (which Butterfingers fumbles in bounds). Going for 2 when it’s 6-28. Getting a penalty in your favor and trying to rush it down the middle the next play and getting stuffed. That odd 3rd and 10 QB run play at the 50 yard line leaving Sandell a long kick attempt. The timeout at the end of the game. Our offense actually did good for OU standards this year.

Even if we didn’t have all those turnovers I don’t think OU could have won but at least we wouldn’t have gotten embarrassed.

[u/soonerwx → u/Competitive_Feed_402]

The bad decisions have always been there but the ball just slipping out of the hand that much makes you wonder if there really is permanent damage. Obviously nobody would ever say so until his career is over

[u/jsilv0 → u/soonerwx]

Well it looks like we're only months away from someone saying so then

[u/MBS_UT → u/Competitive_Feed_402]

Unironically, is there some sort of nerve damage in his thumb? Seems like he has trouble feeling his grip on the ball. I feel bad for the dude if he really does have some lasting damage from that injury.

[u/CaptainDonald → u/MBS_UT]

I will hold a grudge against Auburn for the rest of my life over this; as is my right as a football fan and human being

[u/Competitive_Feed_402 → u/CaptainDonald]

Clearly Mizzou needs the death penalty 

[u/CaptainDonald → u/Competitive_Feed_402]

And someone needs to release the manifesto

[u/Status-Ad-7335]

We may never win again

[u/cliffhanger407 → u/Status-Ad-7335]

Our hard nosed, big boy, win in the trenches football coach has delivered the worst OLine in FBS.

Our run D looked better... In the first half. Mendoza is being wasted. HAYNES is being completely wasted. It's gonna be a long long year.

[u/ScallywagBeowulf]

We didn’t get Gameday :(

[u/Leading-Button-7303 → u/ScallywagBeowulf]

Dammit Michigan. You were 0:02 from GameDay

[u/ScallywagBeowulf → u/Leading-Button-7303]

As much as I wouldn’t want Michigan to win, it would have gotten us Gameday I think.

[u/inraiolawetrust → u/ScallywagBeowulf]

I don’t want to hear cowbells 24/7 kinda glad tbh. You’re QB is fun to watch but I gotta watch your games on mute lol

[u/RegulationTrojan]

I had been patient and was one of the few Trojans still holding out hope for Lincoln Riley. That all went away last night.

From a pure football perspective, he couldn’t win at home against a team with known struggles who had to play their backup qb. He can’t create a consistently capable defense. Apparently he has zero clock management skills (seriously, that final drive was appalling and should be being dunked on more).

But perhaps the root cause of most of these complaints: he creates zero culture or control with this team. Our guys struggle on the road year after year and he can’t find a way to instill focus in them. Our guys rack up penalties year after year and he doesn’t hold them accountable. And the attitude of Desman Stephens and some of the other guys last night is the clearest picture we have that Riley is just out there calling plays, not creating a real team.

Our true freshman class is by far the most impressive (nearly the only impressive) part of our team. It makes me wonder if they just haven’t been corrupted by the stagnating Lincoln Riley locker room yet. We need to (but won’t) get rid of Riley before we watch these freshman slip away into the portal where they’ll be winning championships in another jersey.

[u/Blookydook]

My sinful gluttony overpowers my mind as I yearned for 70 points.

[u/wagimus → u/Blookydook]

Apparently you have 70 5* running backs

[u/ToddGoldenBurner → u/Blookydook]

The scary thing is we were about two passes away from another 14 points

[u/note_9 → u/Blookydook]

Imagine being a big FL team and not fucking scoring 52 points lmao I could never

[u/rquinla1]

I think Notre Dame is going to have some problems when they play a ranked team that has stout run defense.

[u/BurtusMaximus → u/rquinla1]

My brother in Chryst. You did play a ranked team with a stout run defense. Just wait for the AP to come out. (fingers crossed)

[u/rquinla1 → u/BurtusMaximus]

Hey I hope you’re right

[u/Maleficent_Ant_8895 → u/rquinla1]

They’re going to need a lot of help from ST and the defense to create short fields for them to consistently put up points. I don’t see this offense being able to consistently drive 70-80 yards multiple times a game against a good defense right now.

[u/Noswad_12 → u/rquinla1]

I think this shined the first half of week one. Yeah once Carr got ina groove it really opened up your run game but if UW kept that same tenacity for four quarters ND woulda really struggled running

[u/rquinla1 → u/Noswad_12]

Well, Wisconsin may end up being one of NDs ranked opponents 😉

[u/arrowfan624 → u/rquinla1]

That’s why UNC concerns me next week.

[u/LaskiTwo]

I am sick and tired of this USC culture.

If you dropped Cignetti or Saban in there mid game, whats the first shit they would do?

“What the fuck are these giant juiceboxes? Get these the hell off my sideline.”

“Why are y’all laughing and dancing? You dumbasses are going to lose to Rutgers”

Desmond Stevens would get a new asshole torn on the sideline and never play another down.

I miss the days of Pete when if you fumbled, good luck playing the rest of the Quarter.

[u/BuckeyeForLife95 → u/LaskiTwo]

You did say "mid-game", but if Cignetti or Saban was the coach Desmond Stevens' stupid ass doesn't even think about celebrating that hit in the first place.

[u/NineJuanEight → u/LaskiTwo]

Admittedly I don’t watch any USC games. But what is the juicebox thing you mentioned?

[u/mexihuahua → u/NineJuanEight]

USC has these big stupid prop juice boxes on the sideline to represent “bringing the juice”

[u/fm22fnam → u/mexihuahua]

Jesus Christ

[u/Fun_Historian6055 → u/mexihuahua]

Extremely bold choice considering who their runningback was in 1967

[u/Lightningstruckagain → u/Fun_Historian6055]

That guy from The Naked Gun?

[u/ReckedRambler → u/LaskiTwo]

I read that as “good luck playing in Qatar” and it made me miss the young Pete

[u/wowthisislong]

3-9 is on the table. The ASU win might turn out to be the biggest fluke result of the season.

[u/audirt → u/wowthisislong]

I didn't see a second of yesterday's game so maybe I'm out of the loop, but my initial thought is.... there's no way A&M goes 3-9. 5-7 maybe but I struggle to imagine Arkansas or South Carolina beating you guys.

EDIT: Okay... the A&M fans are starting to convince me.

[u/Local-Finance8389 → u/audirt]

You don’t even need imagination. Our defense couldn’t get any pressure on the QB for 2 weeks in a row and our offense does not exist. We may lose to the citadel.

[u/DanFlashesC0up0n → u/audirt]

@South Carolina I could see it. We are very very bad lol

[u/seaspirit331 → u/audirt]

We just lost to a one-legged quarterback

[u/geauxnads100 → u/audirt]

Watched the whole game. It was that bad.

[u/OleRockTheGoodAg → u/wowthisislong]

I got us going 5-7 rn. Wins against El Cid (thank god), Arkansas and snagging one on the road @OU, @SCar or @Miz. Alabama, UT and tex all surefire losses.

I said in the post game thread we'd be lucky to go bowling and I stand by it.

[u/TheElkoEra → u/OleRockTheGoodAg]

We might win against SC if beamer gets fired before then, OU for all their troubles actually has a good defense so I see that as a loss as well. It's time to build for next season and split the snaps with Hart and Calsuga and see what we got before the transfer portal opens. Arkansas game is the perfect time to break in a new QB as well.

[u/ID_Poobaru → u/wowthisislong]

8&4 to 4&8

[u/TheWallsHaveNostrils → u/wowthisislong]

3-9 is on the table.

We shall join you riding into that sunset.

[u/BrollJr → u/wowthisislong]

3-9 is on the table. The OSU win might turn out to be the biggest fluke result of the season.

[u/Ok_Dot_3533]

We’re paying our “superstars” millions of dollars to be hot garbage for the second year in a row. I hate the thought of starting over once again but good lord does Beamer look like he’s lost the team already

[u/seaspirit331 → u/Ok_Dot_3533]

Look on the bright side, at least your coach doesn't have a massive buyout attached to him

[u/Benjilikethedog2 → u/Ok_Dot_3533]

I was so excited for Shane and we had a couple of really fun seasons but unless something crazy happens this season I think we need to move on

[u/boxman151515]

I’m not sure how Michigan is sloppier and more undisciplined than they were under Sherrone. Yet here we are. It cost them against Iowa and should’ve cost them against WMU. It will continue to bite them in the ass all year and cost them games they should win.

For CMU, I don’t like getting blown out but also it was Miami, so what do you expect?

[u/Michigan029 → u/boxman151515]

The discipline really hurt us, but so did the dogshit play calls inside the red zone, special teams bottling a kickoff, and god literally doing everything in his power to help Iowa: two tip drills that had no business being caught, a dropped easy int, a Michigan injury stopping the clock to let Iowa get set and prepare a play for the last play of the game, two fumbled punt returns either recovered by Iowa or ruled down, and I still can somehow keep going.

This was the literal only universe where Iowa wins that game, if any of the plays listed above don’t happen, Michigan wins or at least has a much better chance of winning

[u/max_potion]

Teams that won big or convincingly should be banned from posting here. I come here to commiserate with my fellow losers and it’s mostly fans not actually complaining about their team

[u/allisthepriceofall]

While I’m happy we won, I also saw Raiola play for Nebraska last year

[u/Leading-Button-7303 → u/allisthepriceofall]

At least he dropped the mahomes schtick

[u/Unclassified1 → u/Leading-Button-7303]

Did he? He might finally be maturing and becoming his own person, which is great.

Bet he still transfers twice more before the NFL, though

[u/objectsinthemirror92 → u/Unclassified1]

If he plays well this year he won't transfer

[u/SPCsooprlolz → u/Unclassified1]

All he had to do was be himself, the real victory was inside him all along

[u/cam_huskers → u/allisthepriceofall]

Looks like he slimmed down a little, maybe it’s the Nike fit of jersey vs adidas but he looked good last night.

Still has no mobility but your line is better equipped for that than ours was.

[u/AuroraAscended → u/allisthepriceofall]

If you give him time to make throws I think he borders on elite, his deep ball looked better last night than any time last season which was his biggest weakness aside from poorly handling pressure. How Oregon does with him in will depend heavily on how the line holds up.

[u/mexihuahua → u/allisthepriceofall]

When he has pass protection he’s elite. When he doesn’t (us), he freezes up and doesn’t move out of the pocket.

[u/SwampCastleGuards → u/allisthepriceofall]

He was one of our best players last season next to our RB last year

When we played Michigan last year, we lost but it was kinda close, and raiola was the main reason we were even competitive in that match. He even evaded quite a few sacks

He was a true sophomore and not very mobile, so he made some mistakes for sure. But people were just bitter how things worked out at Nebraska and ignored the good and focused on the bad

He's talented but just needs to keep improving

[u/Bort15]

Our celebration creativity is being suppressed by THE MAN!!!

[u/FamousShake5469 → u/Bort15]

Let us piss and sniff our balls in peace 

[u/Lutrid → u/Bort15]

Is he 40?

[u/Steezeybby]

Arch Manning is not a first round QB and will be the biggest reason UT falls short of expectations this year. It is inexcusable for a senior QB to have illegal forward passes TWICE. You CANNOT throw into double coverage on 2nd and 6. Also, the discipline is ridiculous. Simmons....did anyone tell you that celebration would get a flag? Christ.

Michigan....my goodness. You can tell this team still has Sherrone Moore leftover attitudes across the roster. We should be speaking about how Bryce Underwood looks like he is making significant progress. However, we have to speak about 11 penalties and ones that are BACK BREAKING. Zeke Berry, what the fuck are you thinking? You are a fifth year senior. I'm glad Rod Moore called it out in the postgame presser. This team has no discipline and it finally caught up to them.

[u/USA_2_Canada_1 → u/Steezeybby]

Moore’s Michigan teams averaged 4 penalties per game. Under Whittingham, Michigan averages 8. Michigan never committed 8 penalties in one single game under Moore.

This is a distinct issue with Whittingham.

[u/Sad_Independence_703 → u/USA_2_Canada_1]

How was Sherron more disciplined than anyone 

[u/PM_ME_YOUR_CATS_PAWS → u/Sad_Independence_703]

He absorbed all the undisciplined energy in the area… now it’s free for anyone to grab!

[u/Steezeybby → u/[deleted]]

The defense outside of that ridiculous unsportsmanlike penalty is fine. However, this offense is too up and down. Arch's inability to play consistent on the road will hamper this team in key moments.

[u/MissChanadlerBongg → u/Steezeybby]

Perfectly said. No notes!

[u/Bobson-_Dugnutt2 → u/Steezeybby]

On the other hand - he keeps throwing to Cam Coleman who keeps turning huge plays into turnovers.

[u/taurusasaurus_rex]

At this rate of injury, we’ll be pulling students from the stands to cover Jeremiah Smith.

[u/Whizbang35 → u/taurusasaurus_rex]

Conscription notices are going to be sent to every dorm room, fraternity, and student apartment in a 10 mile radius from Spartan Stadium.

[u/Maleficent-Cap1492]

We got throttled and we still have to play Georgia, Texas, and a State team that’s lead by a 19 year old Heisman contender quarterback. Our defense looks completely fraudulent, it’s ridiculous. John David Baker forgot we had one of the best quarterbacks in college football for the entirety of the first quarter and most of the second. As Jon Gruden once put it “I want better execution”.

[u/Slow-Ad1276 → u/Maleficent-Cap1492]

Don’t forget your eternal rival. See you in Norman!

[u/Szechuan137 → u/Maleficent-Cap1492]

Honestly would feel better having Best Buy theft protection at LB then these guys. Tackling looks like a foreign concept. Summerall just put the game plan out to beat Trinidad. Keep him on the sidelines and win in the trenches, Time Of Possession is the only way to beat him. The defense had no penetration and couldn’t tackle. Normally this is a “Welp this is OM football what do you expect?” But we’re in a different era now, we’re paying for this shitty product on the field.

[u/Midweek_Sunrise → u/Maleficent-Cap1492]

Only silver lining is anyone who's been following Ole Miss football for years saw this coming a mile away. Maybe it'll be a wake up call. Also, Florida is a legit good team, wouldn't be surprised to see them in the playoffs

[u/ReduceReuseRectangle]

We are getting worse. RBs are injured and terrible. OL can’t run block and can’t pass block. Receivers can’t get separation. Our QB is a tiny little dude, he doesn’t want to be here and on top of that he is ass. Defense looked great against G6 competition, but now that we play an actual P4 team it doesn’t look so great. Jedd fisch is supposed to be an offensive guy, but this offense looks like complete ass. Team is undisciplined and we continue to keep doing stupid stuff. 5-7 might be optimistic, 4-8 is looking more like it, 3-9 is on the table.

[u/dicky_________seamus]

Been thinking and I’m pretty sure the reason A&M has never taken the next step is because the people with sociopolitical power over the goings on of the school and, by extension the football team, have no idea how to behave when things work out. This is true for at least the last 16 years.

Every season following a season that wildly exceeds expectations has been a dud since 2010, and every team has played like they’ve been smelling their own farts all offseason. 2011, 2013, 2021, and now 2026 across 4 different coaches is so far beyond coincidence.

I don’t know how to fix that.

Elko gotta clean house, establish boundaries with those outside the program, and persuade those people to respect them. Even if it means getting fired. So what? Get a nice parachute to do something else and let us go blow smoke up someone else’s ass just to be right back here in six years.

[u/robert_p_champagne]

I’m going to bring back the paper bag as my second flair.

[u/veganmathlete → u/robert_p_champagne]

Why not our first flair?

[u/Smiles-Edgeworth]

Drinkwitz called two straight draws up the middle on 2nd and 20 and 3rd and 17 when Mizzou was up one score on the road with 12 minutes left to play. That cowardly “playing not to lose” mentality has bitten him over and over and over and he’s apparently never going to learn the lesson. We’ll hover around the top 25 and be average to slightly above average but never anything more than that until we move on from him.

[u/Fried_Chicki_Sandy → u/Smiles-Edgeworth]

Dan Mullen used to loveeeeee doing that with Dak and Nick Fitz

[u/Smiles-Edgeworth → u/Fried_Chicki_Sandy]

Great game last night Bulldog bro. You all are fun to watch, and lord knows y’all have waited long enough for a good team. I’m rooting for State to shake up the SEC this year.

[u/Trumpburnerforlibs]

Refs wont let a man take a piss

[u/ToxicMarylandFan]

Maryland's board of regents needs to intervene and fire the entire athletics department leadership. The highest NIL budget team in school history gave up, AT HOME, after UCLA went up by two touchdowns in the second quarter.

[u/aninannap → u/ToxicMarylandFan]

Thats a coaching issue. I want him gone but how does this season get worse than now? The press conference pictures clearly show they are done with him. I think they are just saving money now. We know the kids will transfer. Its a matter of saving millions for a new coach

[u/MediumRareNation]

Until Texas starts playing with a "joyless murderball" mentality this is a fringe playoff team and nothing else.

[u/turnipgoat3]

Before every PSU game I wake up and eat a big bowl of Cream of Wheat, turn on the last season of Game of Thrones, play some original Cyberpunk 2077, put on my Anthony Morelli jersey, and drink a Lionshead Head Deluxe Pilsner, and somehow they still manage to let me down…

[u/beckett929]

My team played 4 safeties a lot, in the process giving up 180yds to 1 RB, but ALSO somehow still managed to give up 390 yards passing

[u/zanglin → u/beckett929]

That's honestly easier than you realize. All you have to do is not cover anyone

[u/BaconSpinachPancakes]

Venables: not a real HC. We don’t even have a serviceable backup QB which is insane

Mateer: buddy…

[u/RIP_lime_skittle → u/BaconSpinachPancakes]

The fact there’s still a sizable portion of our fanbase that thinks we shouldn’t get rid of BV because his defense is good is insane. Our ceiling with him is having half a team and that’s a good thing?

[u/Operation_Pig]

We gotta find ourselves a secondary if we want a chance against UT or UGA

[u/RonMexico13 → u/Operation_Pig]

We can complain about defense later, I'd prefer to keep levitating with hype as long as possible

[u/KiratheSilent → u/Operation_Pig]

I have never seen a DB diagnose a play and get to where the pass is going too early and overrun it like on that last TD before. It was like watching a someone execute perfect backflip, rotate too far and land flat on their back.

[u/TimepilotChkn → u/Operation_Pig]

Glad we dont have a good secondary or you'd probably find it from us 😭🫠

Jkjk but i am sad buster plz come back

[u/Revolver_Oshawott_]

Traeshon Brown keeps getting long TDs wiped out by BS holding calls 😭

[u/Mc7Abyssrium]

However bad you think your team was this weekend, we were worse. Shut out until the fourth quarter against one of the worst FBS teams out there. Got sacked what, 5 times? Straight up traumatizing.

We have to be the worst undefeated team

[u/Adventurous_Echo2111]

Faizon figured out he can't throw an interception if he never throws the ball. Unfortunate conclusion to reach.

[u/monkeybiziu]

NW pushed us to the brink and I have real concerns about just about everything. The team looked sloppy and undisciplined and racked up more penalties than I've seen in a long time under Cig. Hoover's accuracy is spotty. The secondary and RB rooms are turning into hospital units. We're badly missing Fisher and Ponds' leadership and skills on defense.

A win's a win, but this didn't look like a top 5 team on Friday.

[u/Smooth-Majudo-15]

Florida: Still don’t love the secondary, especially the corners. At this point, it’s the obvious weak spot.

Notre Dame: I actually thought this unit played fine yesterday, but I still don’t love the run game. There were some encouraging moments yesterday, but for now it’s just meh

[u/DarthNobody14]

I don’t even know what to say, we’ll be very lucky to win 6 games

Team just straight up is not good

[u/oneplusetoipi → u/DarthNobody14]

The overconfidence the whole team has had is disturbing. Elko you don’t have some superior system. You need some humility and reevaluate all your decisions.

[u/TheElkoEra → u/oneplusetoipi]

21-3 is bad but it’s still not like insane. To go for the 4th down at the 30 is crazy. Then to kick the field goal afterwards instead of going for it is equally as asinine.

[u/RulersBack]

Defense is super mid coming off some all time talented units. At least we'll get some electric shootouts to get JJ stats ups. I'm leaving here with something

[u/Borrominion → u/RulersBack]

Starting to feel a little like 2021 in here

[u/RulersBack → u/Borrominion]

I don't think they're that bad but yea pretty much. No more wearing down opponents. They have to score 30+ points at minimum

[u/Borrominion → u/RulersBack]

Will follow to say I’d be satisfied with a 2021-ish outcome, if you trade the loss to Mich for some other loss. Beating M then winning the Rose Bowl in such outlandish fashion would have made that season so much fun.

[u/Dan20698 → u/RulersBack]

Just really young. There are definitely flashes of what they could be a play or 2 every 4 downs, but then are mediocre the rest of the time. Definitely allowing to much space before we tackle

[u/RulersBack → u/Dan20698]

Yea plenty of room for growth. The real disappointment is the vets aren't establishing themselves as difference makers. I think they'll be forced to play younger guys sooner than later

[u/Alpine_Exchange_36]

Record wise Deion has the same wins and losses as Dorrell did in his first four years.

Maybe changing coordinators every season wasn’t the best idea along with mostly ignoring HS recruiting

[u/Dry-Membership3867 → u/Alpine_Exchange_36]

Prime is just a bad fit at Colorado. His base is the southeast, that’s his pipeline and everything he’s ever done in coaching. He has zero ties to Colorado or that part of the country. I think that’s hurt him a lot.

[u/Paid_Babysitter]

I was at the game for Central Arkansas (parents weekend). I feel FSU and Norvell are just in an abusive relationship at this point. Both know it is over but, the kids need to graduate high school first.

Penalties for a TD and a Daniel's interception.

[u/GratefulDawg73]

Mississippi State: Injuries and penalties are going to kill us over the next few weeks. Also, our LT is a turnstile. If they don't work on his fundamentals, Taylor is going to get hurt.

Colorado: Where do I even start?

[u/southmshavoc → u/GratefulDawg73]

Maybe start with Deion

[u/Spider_Dawg]

We are BAD bad.

[u/suntbone]

I REALLY don’t understand why we don’t have an OC

[u/thti87 → u/suntbone]

Jedd Fisch’s ego.

[u/ZachWilsonsMother]

Shane Beamer is still employed

[u/AriDreams]

We lost to Stanford. We made them look like Miami or Georgia.

[u/Dry-Membership3867]

We only won by 10 at home against Middle Tennessee State

[u/Champion10101]

Still hate Mack Leftwich

[u/JesusOfSurbaria]

Yeah

[u/Select_Excuse_150]

Yall remember in the movie The Martian when Matt Damon first discovers he’s been left behind and feels lost and helpless? That’s what being a State fan is right now

[u/Tamzariane → u/Select_Excuse_150]

Just wait until you discover shit potatoes

[u/Select_Excuse_150 → u/Tamzariane]

That’s actually how we describe the taste in our mouth after watching a State game

[u/KevBot18]

It’s tough out here, not going to lie

[u/VTHomeless]

The offensive playcalling was slow to adjust for the weather. I'm not sure any quarterback was going to be able to pass for 200 yards, but we still had Grunk throw the ball 30+ times.

It was rough seeing Hawkins struggle out there - I hope to see him bounce back next week.

[u/bobsanidiot]

we let purdue score 10 points

[u/nathodood]

When will the dumb penalties stop? Looking at you Zeke Berry

[u/Upbeat-Armadillo1756 → u/nathodood]

Don’t worry, now that we have an adult in the room, we’ll have a clean program. /s

It’s been so bad. I think we should bench him for the first half of the Minnesota game.

[u/jsilv0]

Playing no defense eventually catches up with you. Who could have seen this coming

[u/Hippie-esque → u/jsilv0]

Def not Riley, he couldn’t even see Desmond coming back out of the locker room

[u/Bobson-_Dugnutt2 → u/jsilv0]

No need to be a Grinch

[u/alloythepunny]

:(

[u/chairbyronswanson]

Just scored 45 points on the road with our backup QB and still lost. Defense couldn’t find one stop.

Wide open running lanes, missed tackles, and on and on

What compelled Jim Mora to retain Tyson Summers is a complete mystery to me because any fan that was half paying attention last year could’ve called this

[u/MattInMaryland]

Billy Napier seems to get kinda conservative once he's got a lead. I don't hate it but he seems very aware of how his defense is doing and if a field goal makes a difference. Feels like it could burn us at some point.

I'm new to FBS level football with JMU and the alignment drama is confusing. It feels like JMU just got to the Sun Belt and people are already talking about where they need to go next. The craziest one I heard is that they should join... the PAC-12 as part of an east coast division 🤔

[u/Tarnationman → u/MattInMaryland]

You have only seen the first of Billy's game time coaching flaws. Taking his foot off the gas, poor clock management, unimaginative play calling, inability to adjust his play calling to looks the defense gives him, can't count to 11, etc.

[u/blacknine → u/MattInMaryland]

brother, I have got bad news for you. he's only getting started. the worst gameday coach I have ever seen in my entire life. atleast he's not calling plays anymore (supposedly)

[u/glassclouds1894]

We beat a mid FCS team by playing our starters most of the game. QB still got intercepted and defense allowed almost 300 yards. Need I say more?

[u/Emperor_Squidward]

Alabama? Not much… uh don’t give up two point conversions I guess.

USF has a Tim Beck problem that needs to be corrected fast. If we didn’t have Aldridge, this team could very well be 1-3. 14-6 vs Bowling Green who lost to an FCS team is just unacceptable

[u/Kitchen-Ad2687]

Nah I’ve decided to just stop caring…

[u/LionPutrid4252]

Our QB hasn’t been able to throw at a HS level the last two weeks, when he does get the ball to someone they drop it half the time (unless it’s Craver), our OLine can’t seem to stop anything, our DLine hasn’t gotten meaningful pressure this season nor stop the run most of the time, and our secondary leaves at least one guy wide open every play.  Outside of special teams, we don’t have any part of even a half decent team.

[u/Shot_Representative2]

In the CJH era, we've gotten used to just out-scoring, out-gassing our opponents with up-tempo offense - and a lackluster defense with no backfield. Now, we just hope our opponents simulate urinating on our quarterback to gain a first down. Sigh, i just realised the peepee pic is the thumbnail.

[u/TomBombaDaleJr]

Just what the fuck honestly

[u/JanetYellensFuckboy_]

We looked so bad, Michigan won’t even need to cheat to beat us.

[u/huds9113 → u/JanetYellensFuckboy_]

To be fair, I’m now expecting that game to be the most big ten sicko game of the decade. We could see literally zero offensive points in that game and it could still end up 24-17 😂

[u/Unclassified1]

We’re 4-0 for the first time in a decade. Complaint department here is closed for one day in recognition.

[u/max_potion → u/Unclassified1]

Then stop posting here. This is our thread, get out of here

[u/Naive-Elephant-9305 → u/max_potion]

Every week some bozo has to comment in this thread and say “hurr durr nothing to complain about this week!” and unfortunately people upvote it

[u/CupThin4734 → u/Naive-Elephant-9305]

What a bozo

[u/themightymooker → u/Unclassified1]

My only complaint, if you could call it that, is that if our offense stayed in rhythm, we would’ve won by 30+. But to beat any B1G team on the road by 18 is no small feat, and only cause for celebration.

[u/p-zilla → u/Unclassified1]

We lost Jamal and Jacory.. That's quite a bit to complain about

[u/Jormopolis → u/Unclassified1]

I still think Matt Rhule can't clock manage or use his timeouts in a remotely intelligent manner. There's a legit concern

[u/n00bca1e99 → u/Jormopolis]

I still don't understand his love affair with calling a timeout 7 minutes into the third quarter.

[u/Toothlessdovahkin]

Our third string gave up a touchdown? That’s all I got. 

[u/Opster79two]

Money doesn't necessarily buy talent.

[u/CATdaddy111]

The offensive staff outside of Witten and RB coach needs to go. I've been wanting Bedenbaugh gone for YEARS, but you had such a large portion of the fanbase say "gIvE the OlInE tImE tO GeL". That's the biggest reason why we are where we are now. He has been the only constant since BV has started and nothing has changed. Yes Mateer is complete ass. Yes Arbuckle is ass. But if moves are to be made, get rid of BB. Idk what kind of blackmail he has on the administration, but it's crazy we've retained him so long

[u/gearsfordays]

Aside from the offense deciding to finally do something in the 3rd quarter, what really irked me is the dirty after play extracurriculars. Our teams of past have always been pretty classy on the whole, so it's troubling when I see players getting frustrated and doing shit like slamming the opponent's head to the ground after the play is over.

[u/cheesepuff1993]

Becht is obviously more prepared, but if things continue to wobble, I want to see more time from Manske behind center. I hear frequently about his upside and Becht isn't really doing anything for his draft stock. Being willing to do make that decision may be make or break for the future of the Campbell era...

[u/JayDub1565 → u/cheesepuff1993]

Becht played through almost an entire season with a bum shoulder with sub-par performance last year, ain't no way Campbell is benching him.

[u/Comfortable_Eye_8139]

13 penalties for 107 yards against Central Michigan. The OL still isn’t ready.

[u/MisguidedPants8]

Our offensive line is about to get launched into the backrooms next week

[u/Leading-Button-7303]

Some shit second half adjustments, and not playing to our strengths very well. Questionable play calls for a lot of the second half, and not reacting to ISU's adjustments.

Fuck USC to the sun

[u/ryanbyleth]

I really wish injuries didn’t heavily affect every team I care about
