Guys once again I can sympathize with all of the disappointing comments made about our performance today. It was by far our most appalling MAC effort is the past four years. Our defense, the past pride of this team, flailed anemically today and shocked us all in a game, we and everyone else expected us to win.

Still the last time we were 3-2 was in 2011 after we thumped two weak FCS opponents and I simply do not care to spend the time researching how long before that we achieved a 3-2 opening record, suffice to say it was a long time ago. The fact that we are disgusted, is in a way, a tribute to the current state of EMU football.

I can't give up on this team yet, they have performed solidly up to that weather delay at Rynearson. Of course if they don't get a big W next week against Ball St, that may change.

There is one hidden benefit to this game's outcome. The two top MAC coaches to be poached are now Candle and McElwain, Creighton just dropped down a notch or two.
