No, I don’t feel good about this game.  But it’s not about the team “starting to spiral”.

It’s about playing a tough opponent for the fourth week in a row.  Physical games take a toll.

This part of the schedule is exactly what was expected before the season started when very few people thought this team would win more than 6 or 7 games.

If I told you before the season that we would be going into the game AT Pitt without Rhino, without Lockett, without Thompson, without G. Williams and possibly without Shrader what would you have thought?

Many posters thought it was reasonable to raise their expectations for this team and this year when we started 6-0.  If that’s the case, wouldn’t it also be reasonable to adjust your expectations when you lose four starters for the season and might be going into the game with a QB who would be starting his first collegiate game?

Is your glass half full or half empty?  Mine is half full. This team isn’t starting to spiral. This team has been rallying since week one when they lost two brothers for the season.  Too many guys to mention, but Darton is a great example of young man who has rallied beyond anyone’s expectations.

I don’t know what’s going to happen on Saturday, but I love the heart of this team.

Let’s go 1-0 this week.

GO ORANGE!
