Come on guys. Be proud of this team with only 2 all Pac players and a freshman qb and rb exceeding most expectations this season. We'll get a crap bowl game but we could still get an 11th win and have a great season to look forward to next year

I wonder when it will hit RR that we are cursed, and how long it will take him to move on after that realization.

UA FB may be cursed, but this is all on RR for his conservative play calling and having no one to back up an injured Solomon.

Is not having a backup part of the curse? We can't get the big recruits therefore we won't win the big games.

Even RichRod admitted that in pregame show. "We're not UCLA. We're not going to get five-star recruits."

Well not with a performance like tonight's you're not, no.

That's ridiculous. Keep competing for the conference title and we could absolutely get a few five-stars.

That doesn't even have to be the case. We've gotten five-stars to Tucson with the right coach.

We lose a game this board becomes unhinged. We still will have a good bowl game to play as P12 runnerups. No need to hang our heads.

I like Rich Rod, and I did not see the pre-game, but that IS ridiculous.

There was a point in time, not all that long ago, that the same statement would have applied to basketball. Without question, even moreso.

We don't always get what we want, but we almost always get what we expect.

I disagree, the biggest problem by far was with the O-line. They got no push at all and weren't much better in pass protection. Hard to see how that's on RR.

I hope none of you are seriously angry or upset that we're sitting here with ten wins in our collective pocket, with a chance to get to eleven... Because that'd be just, well, silly.

I think silly anger is a good way to describe it.

Sudden onset hysterical mental menstruation might be a more technical descriptor.

Interesting way to phrase it. I sincerely doubt that anyone is upsate that we have 10 wins.

I think people were upset last night (maybe this morning too?) that we went out and got embarrassed whilst shitting all over ourselves (on O and ST) in a national game with the spotlights on and a chance to really announce to the world we were a team to be reckoned with, one that had finally (insert favorite phrase here).

Though maybe there are some people at there angry that we have 10 wins....world is full of crazy people, so who knows, I guess it's possible. I'm not upset at all, actually I'm amused at the dichotomy in fan reactions.

Exactly this. With homer glasses on I projected 8 wins before the season started. It is THIS game that I and maybe some others are upset with. Because if I was a potential recruit and I watched that game (slaughter) last night with runs up the middle on 3rd and 11 among many, many other "wtf are you thinking" play calls, I would look elsewhere. Overmatched? Fine. Mentally unprepared at a critical juncture and you've had time to prepare? Not so much. I think it's fantastic we have a 10 win season in a seriously tough division in a power conference. Before the season started I kept thinking "man I hope we just make it through the season ok so we can get a lot more bodies on D for next year and really compete" (For me Year 4 & 5 has always been the time to really judge coach/system) Lo and behold it turns out to be the O that's pulling the collective team down. Not a good thing. I like RR. I hope he learns from this. My main concern is the future. 2 star scoob's are rare. Wanted a slight uptick in the overall rating (as a group) of recruits we get for next year.

This.

And my disappointment is based on how poor the offense looked. A loss, fine, but to be out of it after the first half, disappointing.

Does not detract from what has been an great season.

Not disagreeing with you, but with no push and no pass protection why did RR leave a hobbled Anu out there, same with running the dang Nick Wilson up the middle for 1 yard play, even on 3rd and long. Look how well Randall and Scroggins moved the team with their legs, although their passing is atrocious. Their JC passing stats are well known.

No of course not. If we come back and win the holiday bowl or whatever, I'll be very happy. But finishing the season on a losing streak is not optimal.
