Very good point. While SF falsely conveyed a much improved team before the year started, he continued with a similar improvement theme in weekly pressers saying that the team has continued to improve nearly every week. While this weekend may have been the exception (they may have improved)...in general, the team has not improved, indeed, it seemed to have gotten worse week-by-week until Wisconsin.
They deserve the hate?? No. They don't.
Realistically, we have little to no chance of beating Iowa, and I think you know that. Maryland? We had BETTER beat those guys. Their program is in freefall.
No. I've seen a couple Iowa games and based on that - no. Unfortunate too as I despise that program. But we can hope and that is why they play the game. I say 10% chance of victory.
Based on how they played Wisconsin, they have a chance (I wouldn't say, "decent") to beat Iowa. Based on how they played South Alabama, Colorado, Ohio St., Northwestern, Minnesota, Indiana, and Purdue, no, they don't have a decent chance. to beat Iowa.
I respectfully disagree about the staff being caught up in the press clippings. Why?
rive:
Awesome!! Great leadership there and let's bring on Maryland and then the Ditch Chickens!!Today he called out a bunch of players! It's true! Who you might ask?
Well, he really didn't say anybody's name ….
Iowa is more beatable than is Wisconsin imo. Will they? No clue, but certainly capable. I’m worried about Maryland. Prolly be a damn dog fight I’m sure. Crap shoot. Won’t even matter if they don’t beat Maryland.
Interesting take. My presumptions are based on this: we control the LOS vs Maryland but not vs Iowa. Anything is possible but winning both (and Iowa in particular) seems a stretch to me.
It’s a crap shoot. The team is on a losing skid. Any win is good, but they have to see that they can. Nothing is certain. None of us have been able to say that in years as far as winning football games goes.
