It's weird because the reason we got those 6 measly wins that we did last year was because of effort and playing over our heads.I don't think so. Especially when you factor in how they got whipped over the last few games. Remember last year Arkansas and TCU took turns spanking them at the end of the season.
The losses are acceptable, IMO. But the lack of fight/effort in those games is damming.
We hung tight in losses to UCLA, OU and Baylor all because of effort and Strong getting the players to believe. There was a 3 game stretch of wins towards the end of the season where it looked like things were starting to click and you could see how much the players were buying in to him, but since that last win, we've been embarrassing.
He can't help that we have such an average roster and one of the worst QB situations you'll find for a major program, but there's only so much leeway he'll receive if these big losses keep piling up.
It just sucks to be such a bad team right now.
