We are in need of someone to take over the maintenance of the MMB. Yosef has done it for a long time, and we are grateful for all he has done, but life happens and he no longer has the time to devote to its upkeep.

This is the opposite of our 7-5 2014 season, when we played super down the stretch. Not sure we can right the ship coming off these two loses. Next year could be a tough one. The rest of the league has caught up to us.

After the last two games Satt needs to take a hard look at his defensive coaches.

Let’s not be too rash. Yes we gave up 50+ points to a bad team, and let another not great team in UMass steal the game, but overall our defense is the reason we have a chance at a bowl this year. They kept us in the game while our offense was struggling ( non existent) in weeks 3-6.
We were out of place and tackled poorly this week, and played too soft on the final drive of regulation last week, but I think our defensive coaches are ther right guys.

We will be lucky to win six. This year has been a huge disappointment no matter the final outcome in my opinion.

 Looking at 7-5 or even 6-6 team down the stretch. Goodbye Sun Belt championship..hello Camellia Bowl..maybe.
I honestly don't see how we get to 6-6.
From what I've witnessed this season, never say never!

Getting to six requires one more win.

Surely with the Georgia's and ULaf we can get one..right? :?

And to think this morning tailgating next Thursday was the big hullabaloo. :lol:

They haven't caught us, we have played down to lesser teams all year. It's completely on us.

After 4 years of FBS recruiting, how can the depth on defense be this bad?

Our coaching as a whole today was embarrassing. Again looked totally disinterested and got down 3 scores. That's where it all started.

One positive about the way our season is going - we can stop talking about Coach Satt leaving in the next 5 years. I believe he's here to stay for a while.

The offensive game plan has been so inconsistent......one game they make good plan the next it's like take a week off at times...... defensively we played great at UGA and Wake.....I know the injuries have surmounted but most of those have been on offense and actually the offense has improved as a result except the run game.
