You gotta get points. Especially with only 1:53 on the clock before half. In a zero, zero game.......geezus

The score is at least 10-0 if our QB wasn't the worst starting college QB I've seen in my lifetime.

Hopefully this ends the debate over whether it's the lack of time in the pocket that makes Laviano ineffective. It's that he is terrible that makes him ineffective.

We are such an un-athletic team at key positions. That and the fact we have zero luck on things like tipped balls means this is an uphill climb for us. Lots of credit to the team to keep fighting.

He sucks. Golden would have been a million times better. This guy will be learning on the job the next 3 years
If it's true that Ash gives Mehringer a long leash on running the offense, then the end of that drive was on M

Allowing a team to drive 99 yards that easily is PATHETIC. That should be wind sprints galore next week.

And they'll say "You wouldn't have been mad if we got touchdown." Um, yes we would because it was still a stupid call! It wasn't 4th and 1. It was nearly 4 yards. Take the points and potentially the lead going into halftime. But amazingly they run slowest qb on earth. What on earth are these coaches thinking???

This is an option offense right? He could have pitched to Harris on the last one and scored. Maybe you missed that.

I probably would have handed it off earlier though.
That play called, you do not run it with Laviano. Do it with Gio, do it with Oden.

to be fair to lavs, i think harris was out of position... he either should have blocked for CL or stayed back a bit to take a pitch... not sure what the design of the play was..

or maybe CL butchered it.
