It's hard to know if Texas will land in the playoffs this year because they tend to have this nack of mailing it in a few times mid season but I think they are far & away the best team in the BIG12. They might be the best in the county. They've certainly played the best game of any team so far. And their lines of scrimmage are absolutely legit. I don't think what they did to us there was a fluke. And good teams are going to embarass the youthfullness of any team (see Sarks play calling at going after C Downs).
With that said... I'm not going to hyperreact on things because there is a LOT of ball left to be played. The following are the things that are really going to tell me how CNS is really doing with the culture of this program:
1st. Improvement of the team next week & one week at a time. There is NOBODY left on our schedule that has shown anything impressive thus far. They've all been exposed to some degree or another & NONE of them has played an opponent like Texas. This isn't me sunshine pumping. I've watched our competition. They've all been sloppy.
2nd. The Line's of Scrimmage need to lick their wounds, remember how their ass where whipped, learn from it, & use it as a clear lesson to get where they need to be. And can we please get these crappy low snaps fixed please?! That crap is NEVER good!
3rd. I'm trying to give Milroe a chance here. Granted, I am not sure we would've given Hurts much space in his first season if he hadn't of had that generational defense in 2016, which Milroe does NOT. I am going to be SHOCKED if this QB competition is over. He still has a great deal to improve, some of which will not be fixed by seasons end I'm afraid. He has got to curtail those turnover's. He's going to be the difference between a good team Vs a great team... Bryce Young spoiled EVERYBODY!
4th. 1 good game with low penalties. 1 bad game with many penalties. The competition between those two games is vastly different. The NEXT 2 games will show me if this team has really gotten better with this non-sense.
5th. This fan base is spoiled. WE. ARE. SPOILED. And its starting to fester & stink of putrid rot. We've forgotten what is necessary to support our team when things are tough. Can we just suck it up? We are part of this teams culture too. Yes, things have changed. Teams don't fear us like they used to, for good reason. IF the culture of the program is to improve, we need to be a part of that change. Not making it worse.
