I don't fully buy the no-talent theory. There have been many-a-year around here where that has been said, only to have about 8 guys drafted the following April.
I remember when we had David Martin, Jason Witten, Eric Parker, Cedric Wilson, Hannon (talent?), etc and some of those types and people said the same things. They "couldn't win those outside matchups" against Vandy but somehow managed to get open against NFL defenses.
There are not 75 college teams with better talent across the board than our offense.
promise I will not criticize the football team or staff again the rest of the season. They're simply not any good. Ripping them for failing to play competent football is akin to berating a quadrapalegic for not winning a triathalon.
I think we win 5 (MSU, Wyoming, Kentucky - just because they're Kentucky)... and maybe some how Phil pulls out a victory of Vandy and saves his job with 6 wins and a bowl win if we get picked up with 6 wins.
Would make me sick if that saved his job - but wouldnt be surprised at all.
