If the team hasn't done the same or comes unprepared, don't expect my excitement to maintain.

I cannot stand to watch a game where I want to win more than the players do. This is life. There are consequences for preparation, or lack thereof.

Totally agree. (BTW, was Derwin Gray a FS or CB? Cougar stats just says "DB".

This is a very valid point. Personally I am not close to giving up yet.

Yep - I went to the Cal and NIU games last year. One offensive touchdown

Very much an outlier relative to college football attendance

This article is hardly accurate. Fewer than 70,000 fans?

I guess this article would be inaccurate as well?

Can't disagree. ROC needs to get loud... and the older folks need to pitch in.

When ROC is there they're great. Lose one game or a lesser opponent and poof!

It's more of a "Who cares" if we've already lost to UMass

UMass was last home game of the season...so invalid excuse

For sure. But do the two choices have to be mutually exclusive?

Exactly. If everyone just "lifts where they stand" instead of waiting for

Great points - you have convinced me that both need to happen simultaneously.
