The hard part about learning how to ride a bike is realizing there will be moments where it feels good, and there will be moments where you lose your balance and fall off. The hope is that last week was just a minor setback, but it does not mean that you won’t have some bruises or a scrape that will leave a mark. The difference is all about whether you decide to get back up and face those same challenges. Last week seems like it left a mark and has some staying power that has only grown worse each day. It hurts to hear a coach talk about having to learn how to win. If you are reading this, you probably know what winning looks like and what winning feels like. But there is a group of players on a team that we sometimes forget are half our age, and besides learning how to win, they are still learning about each other. I’ve hesitated to use the word rebuild when referring to this program we love, because it seems like we are always just waiting to reload. That is where the history, passion and tradition build those expectations. As fans we have a choice. We can moan and groan about where we are, or we can be the reason we get back to where we belong

Down 3 DL isn’t good. Even though they might have been hurting the team.

Trade TD’s the entire game. We get ball last and kick a 50 yard FG with time expiring.

I have complete blind confidence about this game for some reason. ODU has sputtered so much as of late and I'm hoping we catch them before they figure it back out.
I could also see us getting blown out due to our line play, so who knows.
