We could have should have won, but....
Put yourself in the shoes of a zona fan that game.
- they're getting gashed all game.
- They're throwing deep bombs to the end zone when they just needed to get in field goal range. Playcalling was questionable.
- Couldn't run
- Stupid play by Griffey
- The fumble late in the game
- Played poorly against Colorado
Yeah, wins, baby -- Zona has em, but I would hazard a guess that the zona fans were beside themselves almost the entire game.
You know what fixes it for us?
Better players. Petermen, Sark, Rick, DJ. They all make/made mistakes, all were open to criticism at time. They all seemed like good/great coaches when they had studs.
Outside of Shelton, Kikaha, Shaq, who by the way are all on defense, we don't have any studs. More studs=wins. Would better players ( just a few ) have gotten us to 10 wins with this coaching staff? If Sankey and Price were here, for example.
Coaches are going to make mistakes and I have faith that this ship will turn around. I saw progress today and did not expect to win. Of course I wanted to win. We just don't have the players. The fact we almost won is actually a credit to the coaches. We have virtually nothing on offense that is pac-12 caliber. Seriously. Name a offensive player that starts on one of the better pac-12 teams.
Now does that mean I'm happy? Of course not. Absolutely not. My kids told me to calm down and stop yelling at the TV multiple times during the game. The game was there. Talent is a factor. Coaching is a factor, too.
We're going to have this coach for a while. Let's hope he recruits well.
