Halftime Adjustments?

Four turnovers. In the second half alone. That pretty much sums up our season in two quarters. A game destined to be dominated by our boys and send the seniors out with a final home win, we manage to completely blunder with four turnovers in the home half of the game. The last time I checked, halftime was a break given to both teams for a good rest and adjustments. Apparently we made adjustments, just not the right type.

Our boys dominated the game against the Cats, only to have the offense give it right back. Say what you will about Willie and his D, but when you give the opposition the ball inside your own 10 twice in a half, it's pretty hard to conceive there will be less than 10 points put on the board. It's been our achilles all year long, and it was once again this past Saturday. I'm not going to elaborate too much on what went wrong and what went right, because it's pretty obvious. Our inept offense once again proved it couldn't be trusted, and our D (which played an okay game), proved it cannot overcome the mistakes made by that unit. If nothing else, hopefully this game solidified the case for making changes at years end.

Our "leader" of a quarterback made two very costly throws, which included one on our final offensive drive that could have still won the game. Our true freshman RB showed his youth with a fumble on the one. And our coaching remained bland and unimaginative.

I won't be making a prediction regarding the GT game, as we all know how that one will likely turn out. Though I hope we emerge victorious, I pray we have done enough to this point to ensure both coordinators will be replaced this post season. I am deeply disturbed about the state of the program right now, as I'm sure most of the Red and Black faithful are.

On the bright side, it looks like we'll have Rambo and AJ back to face the Fuzz this upcoming week. I'll be back on later in the week and early next week to recap. I'm hoping for the best this week, but expecting the worst.
