Neither NW or Minny will beat us this year or finish ahead of us. Take that to the bank.
I don't think they will either, (or you're looking at a house cleaning), but it seems that nobody expects anything from NU this year.
Which is fine with me at this point.
I don't understand it...but...OK.
I really don't get it either. When Riley was hired all we heard was how amazing he was at Oregon State, how he did so much more with so much less.
Now, that he has so much more as far as talent, staff, support and facilities...those same "writers" seem to be turning on him or have forgotten was they said in the past or clearly did not mean what they said.
He is actually getting less respect now than he did while going 5-7 at OSU.
We won 9 games last year with a QB that was a horrible fit for the type of offense this staff wants to run and knows how to run well along with a bad DC.
Now, we have a multiple QBs in the system that are custom fit for this offense and they have been in the system for over a year......along with what everyone agrees is going to be an upgrade at DC
.......and we are going to do worse?????
Exactly, I don't get it. I am starting to think that the Riley love from the past was a bunch of BS. "Heck, he is a great guy and sometimes he upsets a really good team...we might as well say he is awesome and just needs to be at a school with tons of resources"
But it seems clear they didn't mean it
