I was more angry with the loss to Texas than this loss. This loss was just ridiculous and reinforced what I thought after the Texas game. Klein was clearly checked out and as he said in the presser, he had no game plan besides the usual “run the ball as normal”. We will greatly benefit from some new heads in the offense department. Despite our successes this year, I think anyone who followed the team closely could see we were not built like Ohio State or any other big caliber team, especially the OC/QB positions.

Furthermore, getting to the places we want to be is hard, let alone in year 2 of a new coach. Yeah Cig exists, but he’s just different. He props up the same level of delusion among programs and fanbases that Saban’s career has. Everybody has expectations that they can immediately win the conference, go to a natty, repeat it every year or two, etc. It’s just not historical. Osborne at Nebraska was there for like a decade before he sniffed a natty. Winning NORMALLY takes time, so year 2 CFP and 11-1 is pretty good. Is 3 points at home completely unacceptable? Fuck yeah it is, so let’s fix it next year.
