actually a reasonably good QB and if TM was as good against a tougher schedule (tougher than this year in terms of pass defenses faced) then I'd say he was pretty darn good.

Really surprised a couple of you yokels are down on the coaches.

And honestly, our team is good. We took the #14 team to the last second, and so

Amen. This is no perfect season but we've been in every game all season long.

Except that #14 team did everything in their power to gift BYU the game. I'm

Good teams find a way to win. See Clemson last week.

I guess my thoughts are that Boise didn't do enough to "find a way to win"

jaredm

10/21/16 2:18pm

Sure they did. They capitalized on our offensive miscues. Held the O to 13 point

I just want them to put in tanner. It's time.

With our current O-line, I'm not sure I want Tanner taking those hits this year.

Louis Litt

10/21/16 12:11pm

Yep this

Zorbel

10/21/16 12:14pm

Our OLine should do just fine against the remaining opponents on our schedule.

I want to see Tanner too, but I think people are forgetting how effective he

riboflavin

10/21/16 12:14pm

Would have loved to see Tanner with a RB like Jamaal

Huge Manatee

10/21/16 12:21pm

That's how I see it

jvr7

10/21/16 12:22pm

Maybe it's not as much about efficiency as having confidence in the QB

YouPuntYouDye

10/21/16 12:27pm

Also people are remembering Tanner in Anae's offense, not a Detmer offense

Not too many QBs have performed well recently in 2 back, Pro set . Go spread

Bobmarleyjr

All the more reason to get him real game experience running the new offense now

Do you not remember Tanner evading tackles last year? Why does everyone forget

TutumTeRoboreReddam

No it is not. And if you were coach, you would not do it either.

Overall I'm really excited about the coaches and team, just want to see Tanner

That's my thing. I'm happy overall with the staff

4th and 19 fake punt from the 5 nuf said.

Name a worse call in D1 history? I want to see if recruiting can be improved.

MichCoug

I was hoping you'd chime in. No one but Uncle Whittingham would be good enough

Our defense is making plays with 4th string RB's playing LB and a failed WR as

I wouldn't say Michael Davis was a failed WR--

Not down on the coaches but a little surprised by some of the decisions

savagecougar

10/21/16 1:40pm

Les Miles was just fired for running the same offense Detmer is running

Bobmarleyjr

10/21/16 1:42pm

That is not the truth. Play calling has been fine. Dropped balls not scripted.

yewtsrnogood

10/21/16 5:21pm

No off tackle runs except QB, no draws, screens, and very poor production

I don't know how you can't be worried after that 4th down call. Isn't any

Take the fake punt out and they are fine, typical growing pains and all that.
