WSU at New Mexico game thread....

It was never great. It is a middle class Mtn West team that has come out on top in some games. Credit for gritty, late wins. But this is a poorly coached program top to bottom.
Losing when we play solid hard nosed football doesnt bother me, i dont like it but there is no shame in putting out your best effort and losing to a better team. That didnt happen tonight

I would say our coaching is a little bit above average. I'm going B-.

How can they not be better than this with being so far into the season?

That's my biggest disappointment.

A B-? Jesus. Wake the fck up. It’s an F. They dont win games because of the coaching. They win in spite of the coaching.

Yes. If you are well coached, play hard nosed football and the game is well called and managed… if you lose, fine. You went down swinging.

Dickfore sucks ass. There are none of those things happening.

MI sucks ass too. Shove your proverbs up your ass you fcking moron.
 
It’s embarrassing that you’re setting up strategy based on hindsight. The way this one worked out, you can argue for using the timeouts. During the action, when you’ve got the lead, and especially when the other team is running the ball, you don’t do them a favor and stop the clock.
Jfc dude go look at the posts. I was calling for them to use timeouts when there was like a minute left. There’s nothing hindsight about it. You could tell they were going to score, it was a matter of how much time we’d have to go the other way. I literally said (jokingly) so we just let em score so we can have 2 minutes and 3 timeouts left…obviously that’s extreme but then they got two big chunks and were on our 12 yard line. At that point you have to start thinking about conserving time because it’ wasn’t an issue for them. I can’t explain this to you any more simply. You are wrong. They proved it. Just stop.

I think in the second half of most of our games, we’d be better off letting Mateer call his own plays.

In fact, I’m not sure that didn’t happen against SJSU, Fresno, and SDSU. And maybe tonight, on the drive where we retook the lead for a minute.

Let it go, dude. I don’t agree, and I don’t give a shit about what you posted..or your opinion in general.

No Biggs. WSU has had the world against them. The coaches got us good enough to beat fuw... Dickert has done it twice... IN SEATTLE!

We are probably going to have 10 wins this season which is a miracle.

I'm not saying they are awesome by any means.

I am saying that if we get 10 wins this season with all that has been against us... you cant even remotely think of firing them.

Dickert and his staff screwed the pooch tonight. Whatever happened at halftime is inexcusable. Whatever that garbage play calling was by Arbuckle in the third Q is inexcusable. The fact the D couldn’t make any adjustments and accepted death by 1000 paper cuts is inexcusable at this level. The clock management at the end of the game was awful.

Dickert deserves some credit for what the team has accomplished this season but they have some soul searching to do. Certainly seems like there’s some guys on this staff that can’t get it done at this level based on what we saw tonight.

I don’t care if we do get to 10 wins, both of our coordinators should go. This team has shown no improvement, and I think has regressed from September to now. We have trouble blocking, and we have trouble tackling.

Tonight a 198 pound QB was moving the pile on us. Tonight we couldn’t diagnose a play/formation even though they ran it 57 times. Tonight we were tearing them up with a mix of run & pass and had a chance to take control, but instead went to all pass. We made no adjustments. It was a total shitshow, and our coaches apparently didn’t notice that their plans weren’t working. That may be why half the defense looked like they were asleep - they knew the coaches weren’t paying attention anyway.

I’ve seen some bad performances on the football field, but this one rates pretty high on the list. This isn’t a good team that just beat us, even worse than that it’s a bad defense that shut us down.

And please... don't twist what I'm saying (not that you specifically are)

We would be morons to fire a coach batting 500 against fuw and if he gets us a 10 win season.

Especially since we are broke and still trying to set up a f'ing conference

Record against UW should not be a determining factor. And no, WSU is not going to fire a head coach after a 10-win season (or even after an 8-win season).

The bar for coordinator positions should be much lower. We’ve got an offensethat has seriously underperformed for 2 seasons, built around an OL that can’t block. And a defense that is now among the worst in the country, can’t generate QB pressure, can’t tackle, and can’t cover the pass. Those all seem like serious problems.

And, yes…the HC shares responsibility for hiring them in the first place. But coordinators are always the first to go. And go they should.

Dude... dont be a moron.

Besides the general pure hate everyone of us should have for fuw...

The have a better location
A better budget
A better history
A whore list of rich outsiders giving them money
Political blow jobs helping their every breath

To have a coach beating fuw is a f*cking treasure

Dickfore beat Jimmy and Jedd? Not DJ and CP. Wake up.

10 wins this season is not a miracle. It is a jv fcking schedule.

You are saying they’re awesome. Your definition of awesome is beating a bad uw team and winning 10 jv football games. Wake up.

What has Dickfore done that another coach couldnt have done? Here’s one… what has he done that Bronco couldnt have done? Cause he was available… A lot of coaches are good guys. He hasnt done anything special in navigating WSU thru conference realignment. He has done WSU no favors with his bullshit defensive scheme or his Coug Raid offenses. How many diff coordinators in his first 2-3 seasons? Where is the talent? Where is the development and improvement? Who is getting better?

I agree. WSU won’t fire him. Hopefully some other school buys his bill of goods and hires him away.

MI can eat nuts.

Moronic is retaining a coach that is over his head and is bad at coaching football.

Poorly coached football is not a sustainable business model. The wheels will fall off. It is not if, it is when.

Is it next season? The degree of difficulty goes up.
 
Poorly coached football is a matter of time before it bites you.

Dickfore is a fraud. Give him a greyhound bus ticket. Dont let him on the plane.
Congratulations on being right one out ten times. You are a savant. A football genius. We are all in awe.

What blows my mind is how this defense stopped UW at the one yard line. That play and effort/coaching in the UW game seems like an eternity ago.

Maybe it's hard to get ready to play and show up each and every game.

Then you've got your coach telling you and the media how great and dangerous New Mexico is. The team didn't believe that Dampier was a huge dual threat or weapon. Hard to win week after week without taking the gas off the pedal.

You think you'll just show up and win the game. The Lobos played hard.

Typical trap game, but our defense is still pretty awful, bad and weak.

And then we'll go down to Corvallis and blow the doors of a really bad OSU team.

UW stopped themselves at the 1. It was a bad playcall and even worse execution by their OL. Our defense was just on the field.

Well yeah, that’s obvious. We still needed to tackle the kid and blow up a couple of blocks which didn’t happen much at all last night. Held a team with considerably better athletes under 20 points.
