Is there some benefit to watching us get embarrassed? I mean, I’d hope the team wouldn’t quit. They are playing to get better, get noticed, keep their scholarships, get an education, have a possible career in football, etc…

What do the fans get? Besides a stark reminder that Arizona football probably will never be the powerhouse we want it to be?

I wake up after a bender to see that I was so drunk the night before that I was agreeing with Machina on the internet.

Time for rehab.

I really hate how wasted his and Noah's coming back this season was. It should be a crime.

I expect a good coaching staff to adapt to the players they have available to play to the best of their abilities. Something our offensive gameplan fails to do.

You're acting like they just found out this week that most of the players are gone, and not something they knew back during fall camp.

Still not an excuse for the team to be THIS bad. UCF is a BAD team and they are blowing us out.

Yes they are.

I wish we had Prysock playing corner..........but he followed Fisch to UW.

I wish we had Stukes out there........but he's out for the year with a knee injury.

It is what it is........a serious TALENT issue.

Also most of the starters we lost we're on the defensive side of the ball, which Akina managed to get playing well until they were decimated by injuries.

I'm really disappointed in the way this season has unfolded. But "angry", no. You've said you're "mad", but haven't answered either of my follow-up questions to you +/or anyone else who is angry.

7 rushing yards for AZ vs 7 TDs for UCF! We aren't that talentless to say coaching is not an issue.

Top 2 running backs gone

Two out of the top 3 receivers (Cowing/TannerM) gone

2 starting OL's gone including the most important OL position (Left tackle)

Top 2 backup OL gone

And unfortunately we did not replace ANY of them with anything close to similar talent.

Seems like a coaching/recruiting problem, doesn't it? Which, again, falls on the coaching staff.

Sorry but "Slow developing plays" are NOT the issue. An OL that has blocking issues and a WR corps with little separation speed are.

Yes they are.

I wish we had Prysock playing corner..........but he followed Fisch to UW.

I wish we had Stukes out there........but he's out for the year with a knee injury.

It is what it is........a serious TALENT issue.
UCF has a serious talent issue as well. So why are they blowing us out?
Simple, our talent issue is much worse than theirs.
They're starting a redshirt freshman at quarterback and you're trying to tell me we have bigger talent issues.

Are you for real right now?

What, exactly are you angry about? How were you wronged?
Seriously? I'm mad that this team is as bad as it is.
I'm really disappointed in the way this season has unfolded. But "angry", no. You've said you're "mad", but haven't answered either of my follow-up questions to you +/or anyone else who is angry.
lol you asked me what I was mad about and I told you? How else can I spell it out for you?
How were you wronged?
What are you even asking? What in the flying fuck does that have to do with me being mad we suck? When did I ever say I was "wronged" by UofA football?

Whats the excuse for the offense?

Top 2 running backs gone

Two out of the top 3 receivers (Cowing/TannerM) gone

2 starting OL's gone including the most important OL position (Left tackle)

Top 2 backup OL gone

And unfortunately we did not replace ANY of them with anything close to similar talent.

Got it????????
So then maybe don't fill your playbook with such slow developing plays.

Got it???????
Sorry but "Slow developing plays" are NOT the issue. An OL that has blocking issues and a WR corps with little separation speed are.
Oh so Noah's average time to throw the ball didn't increase? I guess it shouldn't if our O line is so bad right?

Seems like a coaching/recruiting problem, doesn't it? Which, again, falls on the coaching staff.
2 issues with your post.

1) Brennan hasn't had a full recruiting year yet (he was hired AFTER the season when most of the recruits were already spoken for)

2) The quality of the recruits we will be able to get going forward will largely depend on how much NIL we have.......which isn't much

Well, I guess that if U of A Football never "wronged" you, wtf do you have to be angry about? (Besides testosterone, of course...)

BECAUSE OUR FOOTBALL TEAM SUCKS. Do you have trouble reading what I wrote?

Or are you being this purposefully obtuse for a reason?

I don't have testosterone and I'm mad we suck. We should not be getting blown out.
