[herbyhawk]

MSU gets to be get demolished in a major bowl and WISC gets their revenge game in the BTCG

and once again, NO ONE will ask the tough questions of KF at his presser

CJ injured. I will not call out any players as this was a team loss, plenty of mistakes to go around.

We played better against Minnesota then we did today IMO.

what exactly did the coaches get wrong? They knew the fake was there, the players couldnt stop it

BB game Monday night. Maybe Kirk can get some tips on how to properly manage a game.

It was lack of player execution today ladies and gentleman. Timely fumbles, penalties, and miscues led to this loss. Coaching staff had a decent game plan. We just mortally wounded ourselves too many times. The big question is why can't we execute more than 1 week in a row. Hello to 6-6!

We didn't execute, but the staff certainly doesn't come off squeaky clean either. You would think by this point in the season this "staff" would have had us in a position where we're not constantly making the same mistakes on both sides of the ball as we were at the beginning of the year. Simple technique stuff, mainly from our interior line and our tackling. Truly embarrassing.

We played well at Minnesota, just couldnt capitalize in the red zone

6-6 seems likely at this point.

What we saw today with the conference championship game on the line was pathetic...coaches, players, all around. Terrible effort. This 2011 team and staff is a total FAIL. I just feel sorry for McNutt who is having a hell of a year and has to suffer through this disaster. However, in just a few short weeks we get to put this whole disaster behind us and look towards 2012 and 2013...or as KF puts it...rebuilding years. Hopefully we get back to 8 win seasons by 2014.

Not disagreeing with you at all, but has there been any difference in how we played in the last 3 weeks???? The only difference between the minnt and mich games was that mich dropped passes.

 

[tksirius]

so what happens if we dont get a bowl invite? answer: Kirk gets an extension and raise.

 

[MNHawkeyeFreak]

It's herbstreits fault

The thing that upsets me the most about this game, was that we were given the opportunities to win the game in the second half and we couldn't execute.

 

[Tschroeder13]

Um yeah
