Would a win tonight actually calm/assuage any concerns?

[Chongo94]

Just curious as to what or how people are thinking?

For me, I don’t think so….I mean Utah is without their 10 year quarterback so it does mitigate things somewhat.

But just wondered how other would feel about the rest of the season were we to win tonight. Would we need to win in impressive fashion or would just a squeaker win still salve any concerns/fear?

Just hoping for Bowl eligibility at this point.

A road conf win would be a very good step forward. But I don’t think it would totally remove the concerns I have about this team and the staff.

 

[Opintel]

It would be great to win, but it would not remove my concerns; the problems are too deeply entrenched.

Go Frogs.

 

[FrogBall09]

Depends if being bowl eligible is the new North Star- because our conference sucks and we don’t have any chance to win it at all and that seems really bad

 

[Frog Attack II]

Of course it's not .. but I think most are just looking for improvement and trajectory... And a bowl is better than no bowl. However, I'm not confident in that unfortunately.

 

[ftwfrog]

Hell yes. A road win and win #4 would mean we only need 2 more to be bowl eligible.

Will a win cause the KfC crew to be happy? Of course not. After briefly reading this board, I’m certain there’s a percentage of fans that are hoping we lose so they can [ hundin] about the coaching staff more.

I don't want to worry about the big picture at this point. Just want to beat the Utes and figure out the rest later.

Unfortunately, there are people on KFC who would rather be right than happy. I don’t think you can underestimate the level of ego and disdain on this forum.

Let’s just say a win on the road against Utah would be nice. Does that mean we have turned the corner and solved our problems? No. With this team it’s week by week.

Good call.

I think a win today pretty much guarantees another year for CSD. He’s probably coming back regardless but if we lose out (including 7 straight losses) it might get interesting.

 

[Bruce Berry]

I'm less concerned about winning a game at this point. Don't see that happening tonight.

Lets start by shooting for 2 turnovers or less as a start.

Baby steps...

I'm curious if there will be any improvement after a bye week, and the "emphasis" on fundamentals.

 

[JugbandFrog]

I’m not even excited to watch these Frogs.

I am jealous of these other teams with well coached, motivated players.

 

[An-Cap Frog]

I thought this was a 6-6 team. How we got there might be sus, but that still serves. I actually believe that we should give everyone 1 more year. HC, OC, DC, ST and then fire the lot if we don't make a bowl.

 

[FroggleRock]

no

Good grief...another year of this? Not happening.

People need to realize that this year’s schedule is a cakewalk compared to our schedule last year. This should have been at the very least a 7-5 team after taking both Texas and Oklahoma off of the schedule. But here we are at 3–3, looking down the barrel at another losing season going into the hardest stretch of our schedule. Going 3–9 is a very real possibility. And to me, anything under 6–6 should get Dykes fired. He’s had more resources at his disposal than at any of his previous stops, yet we’re getting the same results that he had at Cal. This is literally the most pivotal time in college football, and we CANNOT afford to continue this downward trend.

 

[LisaLT]

I think unless Dykes loses every game, he’s going to be back regardless. I still will always hope for the best for our team/players.
