We look awful tonight
I’m pretty sure Ridder has a torn rotator cuff. He can’t throw the ball over 5 yards.
He has no business playing in this game right now. He's either very injured, or completely incapable of throwing the ball. Either way, Bryant should be in the game. Also, Denbrock needs to be replaced in the off-season if we are ever going to win the conference and not get embarrassed in an NY6 bowl game. Memphis will destroy us, and Temple is looking like a L as well if this is the offense we are putting on the field.
Reading these comments one would never know this team has only one loss and that to #2 in the nation.
Coming back from 10 down on the road against a very good defense is a great achievement. All analysts I heard picked USF to win because of its stout run defense and premier corners. There looked to be limited soft spots to exploit in the matchup between the UC offense and USF defense. Nonetheless after a scoreless first half the UC coaches were able to make adjustments and came out to play a smash mouth up the middle running and ultimately overcome the deficit.
Interesting that Ridder beat USF with his feet. We find ways to win. Temple of course will be very tough but with the division title in our grasp, I think we can pull it out. I am not confident about beating Memphis at all but if we just make the championship and then lay it all on the line in that game, I will be super happy. Then we have to worrry about Fick.This team has a lot of heart and a legit defense. Just wish Denbrock could find a way to open up the passing game a bit. Don't get me wrong -- I am very happy with 9-1, which is at least 1 more win than I would have expected at this point going into the season. But I am really concerned about our ability to beat some pretty good teams over the next several weeks with a vanilla playbook and a QB who seems to be too injured to throw the ball with any consistency.
Who said anything like that ? 9-1 is a good thing no matter how you look at it and if anything it shows resilience of the coaching and players to WIN consistently against who's on the schedule. Would you prefer 25 of 30 for 450 yards 4 TDs in a loss ?Good point. We played really well, our offensive coordinator looked brilliant as usual, and our QB looked phenomenal. I can't believe anyone was critical.
