No, I think we can go 8-4, which isn't a bad year. We just have the players to do better. As I said this week, there's room for one of TCU or UCF to whether as a dark horse contender in the race. It's UCF. I think we're out because we can't close games against the best teams. Utah will beat us the same way; Oklahoma State probably will too. We'll be better than last year but not as good as we could be because we have made the choice to play a stupid brand of football.
Where do you see 8 wins?
Honest question.

I was thinking the same. But we blew a 21 point lead against a middle of the road team. They owned us the back half of the game. When it matters.

You seriously think there are 6 teams left in our schedule that can’t figure out how to just run the ball all game and sell out you stop the pass the entire night ?

What 6 teams do you think we beat?

Or we could just have not false started on the goal line at six minutes, or not run three plays behind the sticks then punted at three minutes.

Empty calorie yards. We threw for nearly 400 yards and four TDs and lost. That's garbage.

Cause we won't even try to rush more. You've got to attempt more rushing. We rushed 17 times with a lead most of the game! You can't control the clock slinging the ball around the whole game.

I think deep down, everyone knew the Dykes hire wasnt a good one, but we were fooled a bit by a team that was honestly 7-5 (could have easily lost Okie State, Kansas State 1.0, Kansas, Baylor, Texas, maybe even Tech) but Max Duggan willed to a National Title berth.

Before 2022, his best team was 3 losses and a mid tier bowl loss. He's hired bad coaches, sometimes bad people (Kaz, Briles), honestly he's kind of a creep. You can live with a creep if he wins (Harbaugh, countless others in the SEC), harder to do when you're blowing 21 point leads to what is basically an AAC team.
Hard to accept, but it’s the truth. And he won’t let go of the myth that this short passes are like runs. No matter how often it gives too much time for the d back to come down and stop for near loss once the ball is thrown.

Bad loss losing up 28-7. Multiple players with career high games and it all goes down the toilet. Fans turn up and abandon when up because they forget we're in the Big 12. Better play calls could have been made and key players could have executed better in key moments. Just sucks...Oh well, on to the next. Go Frogs

Some of is got blasted when we pointed some of this out when he was hired. His record was what it was.

TCU decision to kick a field goal on 4th and goal from the 4 was fatal and stupid. College football is supposed to be fun and they had to win the game right there. The Frogs had not stopped UCF since an hour ago. Boring and stupid
