Because as badly as our game went today, theirs might have gone worse. Some comments from Tech fans on r/CFB tonight:
>In-depth post game review for Texas Tech: same [Craig James], different day
>We don't deserve Patrick Mahomes. Our defense is embarrassing. Our o-line is (mating between Steel & 2314) awful. How could they let mahomes get blown up like that on the hail mary. I miss Deandre Washington.
>Welp. In the last 6-7 years, outside of a couple games, it's been like watching the same game over and over.
We show up, play good ball for a quarter or two, and then someone will do something mind bendingly stupid. The stupidity becomes contagious and we keep making the same mistakes over and over. Someone shoves a QB down 5 seconds after the play.
Maybe the defense gets a couple of stops. Then their endurance is exhausted and they flail around for the rest of the game with little effort, thought, or direction. And then we lose. It's been a continuous and uninterrupted clown show on that side of the ball since 2009.
Now, we are doing it with a QB that would be the Heisman frontrunner for another team, tragically and typically. I'm sick of it.
>I just love feeling pain.
>Both teams lost. TTU lost harder
>At least we aren't Rutgers?
>100 Penalty yards that's bad.
>Our offense is only as good as our offensive line and I'll tell you what folks, it ain't a very good one.
>What's the address for the football department? I've got a few big boy belts I'd like to mail their way since they seem to teach no discipline.
And my personal favorite:
>I am broken.
The AZ state game did it. I just catch watch us not play defense anymore. I can't do it. 17 years since undergrad I can't do it. We don't change. WE sorta do but we don't.
I haven't watched since the ASU game. I sort of watched tonight. We were at a wedding (who the (What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together) gets married in the fall??) and I watched while at the reception (long story why there were TVs around).
And I honeslty... I am just empty. (What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together).
I know, Iknow. New DC every year for the past 8. No consistency. You guys.
(What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together) that. (What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together) you. (What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together) me. (What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together) everybody.
I can't do this anymore. It's not just the defense, the lack of tackling. It's the penalties, too. It's clear coach bro can't instill discipline. He just wants to play madden with his QB recruits.
(What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together).
It's 12:15 am. We're back at the hotel. And instead of sleeping I am whinign at a bunch of internet strangers.
(What Maniac & Illini Frog Do together).
This isn't about losing. This is about how we play, and how we refuse to change. I don't know if I can't keep this sadness inside me.
