Yet they come on message boards and can critique coaches and players like they have actually been in this position before. The easiest way to win a game is from the stands you can catch every pass complete every throw and call all td plays and you win every game!!!
I find it ironic that people try to shut down conversation by saying that unless you've played college football, you can't understand or critique college football. It's football, not quantum mechanics.
I guess since I didn't play in college, I'm too ignorant to understand that 52-10 was an ass-whooping.
I guess since I didn't play in college, I'm too ignorant to understand that a fake punt from your own end on your first possession is ridiculous. (Even though the coach admits it was a mistake.)
I guess since I didn't play in college, I'm too ignorant to see that our QB was wildly inaccurate on his passing all day. And not even consistent in his inaccuracy, throwing both high and low...and behind...his receivers.
I guess since I didn't play in college, I'm too ignorant to see that Brickhouse got humiliated by Gandy-Whatever all day long. Oh, and I'm way too stupid to see that the coaches never tried to help him out.
I guess since I didn't play in college, I'm too ignorant to see that our running game was one-dimensional and completely ineffective. Being ignorant, I couldn't even begin to understand that you actually CAN make changes to your offense. It's legal.
I guess since I didn't play in college, I'm too ignorant to see that Blake LaRussa was much more effective on Saturday and that he might actually have been able to win the game, if he had played the 2nd half.
Finally, since I didn't play in college, I'm too ignorant to see that these types of beat-downs happen way too often at ODU. I'm supposed to believe that all Bobby has to do is make some tweaks around the edges to make this a championship team. You know, like giving a Yugo a new wax job will make it a winner in the Indy 500.
Well I'm not too ignorant to know that everyone is held accountable for their performance. ODU and Coach Wilder are paying the price this week. The criticism is unpleasant, but they earned it.
