We're going to mix in a few surprise plays in the 2nd half to have a chance. Maybe a throw to #6 Minter down the #s, a WR reverse & President keeping it on the read option a few times.

Guarantee we run a jet sweep to Keenan in 2nd half.

Navy and the refs doing their best to keep us in this thing. Must capitalize. I've watched football for 50 years and I've never seen clipping called on a simple line slant inside they tackles

Yeah, that wasn't clipping either...our guy wasn't engaged with another Olineman. He just tried to cut him down. Thanks refs.

Agree that our receivers are a lot of the issue.

Hobbs isn’t a “go to” receiver. He was a great 2nd/3rd option that could surprise some people.

Yeah, wait for the make good call in the 4th to come out of nowhere and cripple one of our drives.

Flip side of that is everybody out there knows we’ve got a Skelton crew on the line. So I could see them calling a close game to protect who’s left that can play.

After what we've seen from President this season, they must have absolutely no confidence in Skipper.
We're obviously not at practice everyday, but it seems to me from what I saw in Spring and the highlights in fall camp that there's not a huge difference. I'm thinking this is more to service egos.

It was legit. Their blocking scheme up front is predicated in getting the DL on the ground. Our guy beat him to the spot and he was in his cut block and hit the DL from behind.

75% of our plays the remainder of the season will be runs up the middle for 3 yds or less

Hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!
The moron Monty goes for it on 4th and 1... at the Tulsa 30. With 15 minutes left in the game.

Monty is ridiculous. What an idiot.

He is a crap coach. So silly.

GAME. SET. MATCH.

Our D gave up in that one. If Monty continues with President in this one someone can have my tickets the rest of the season. This is f-ing ridiculous.

Makes for a snoozer of an offense. We will break some of those, but for the most part they are just wasted plays. I wonder what percentage of our 3 and outs this season have been three runs up the middle?

Blame the play calling. Blame the defensive schemes and the fact that players are out of a position and are poor tacklers. Blame the receivers who drop balls (alot).

President is not the issue. Tulsa is just bad in so many facets.

Blame the coach and his staff.

President ain’t getting the job done. Past time for the hook. Our only hope is he’ll get whacked silly on one his many runs and we’ll actually have to put a QB in the game.

Well... then blame the stupid or incompetent coach who either can't evaluate or can't recruit. Either way...

This **** storm (1, maybe 2 wins) of a season, is squarely on the 3rd year coach.

Fire Monty!
I said the same thing w Blakenship at this same time and everyone hated...

Unfortunately... I am right. Tulsa is poorly coached. Period.

We flat out suck on both sides of the ball. Our OL is not quite as good as we want to believe if we can’t gain a freaking yard on 2nd, 3rd, and 4th and 1.

Our DL is non-existent.

I don't know why everyone's bagging on the D. Navy has 4 scores and 2 started on our side of the 50. Only one drive of more than 60 yards. Its not the iron curtain but they've held up pretty well. When you give them them all with less than 50 yards to go, you're going to give up some points.
