Nice. Once the reality of how shitty we are hits us in the face on Thursday night, we have a day to recover and then enjoy the first weekend of the season.
Yeah, I’m surprising myself with how decent I feel about this season. Our roster is a mess, but our schedule is horrible, and you can’t underestimate (1) a coherent scheme and (2) a team that actually gives a damn, both of which it looks like we’ll have. Even with all the transfers, it’s hard to imagine us getting worse on either side of the ball. And with three non-con patsies and several also-rans on the schedule...I’m not planning any parades, but I expect to enjoy watching much more than I did last year.
Every time I think it can’t possibly be ANY worse than it’s been the past 15 plus years... It gets worse.
This is a betrayal of the hand that fed me, but for this season I am really looking forward to Butch tanking Arkansas State. Given the resources they put into sports there, it’s such an easy place to win at a mid major level. I wish we would schedule them again
