Copper Bowl/BWW Bowl Open Thread

Getting fucked by the refs already. I may not have enough vodka in the freezer for this.

Wile continuing to push it after doing it on every kick in the Ohio game.

Nice drive by the offense.  Funchess needed to do a better job of adjusting to the ball in the air.  Shane gave that quite a bit of air and Funchess should have been able to hall that in.

Now it's time to see something out of Mattison.  I have been disappointed with how the defense has responded in every one of the losses.  Show me something-get a stop here!

the live blog...as usual can't get a word in. Hopefully the D can get a stop here

Shane looks very comfotable.  Its kind of strange.  Both Denard and Devin -- as good as they were -- always had me holding my breath.  I don't feel that way as much with Shane.  Famous last words I know.

This is not a great offense, but they do have good balance and can run, throw, and scramble with the QB.  So, they will get yards unless we can stop them on first down consistently.  Morris looks good so far, mostly due to...wait for it...good play calling by Borges.  But, he'll have to complete some passes to win this for us because I don't see us shutting down their offense all game.

This defense looks so bad it's ridiculous.

So beyond porous. Fuck.

And so fucking lacking in discipline.

A gap scouted from OSU

I don't understand what Speilman keeps talking about with gaps.  I can obviously see that there are holes they are running through, but I don't understand why.  Is it scheme, positioning, or simple beating your man?  Is this the d-line's fault, the LB, etc?  Is this a coaching problem or an execution problem or maybe just playing young guys?  What's the deal there?

Just make the tackle.  Don't get cute trying to strip the ball.  

Goddammit!

This is going to be brutal.

Speaking of Blake Countess...
