Three of our players put themselves above the team because they think they're gonna amount to something in the NFL. A couple others were apparently academically ineligible, and I guess it was a mixture of flu/COVID for the rest. For most of those players, that shows me a lack of commitment. Win the conference championship, and then it's apparently party time.
My wife has an immune system deficiency, teaches in a public middle school that has the highest enrollment of any of the 15 middle schools in our school district, and she isn’t anywhere remotely as physically healthy and fit as these kids are. She is vaccinated, and hasn’t gotten sick yet since this thing broke.
It's ******* pathetic for 11 starters to miss a damn game, and about 25 players altogether. Feel bad for the rest who did play. Still no bowl win for our program. Still no win against a ranked opponent. And next year some of our fans will probably complain again about why no one seems to take us seriously. Great season capped off in losing fashion by dropping two of our last three games.
This should’ve been a bowl win against a ranked opponent, and a FITTING end to our season. It was basically even a home game for us. Everything pointed to this game as being the win we would hang our hat on. The "triangle" didn’t travel. Half of it didn’t even suit up. I'm not attending any more of our bowl games if this is how it's gonna be.
You do realize that SDSU got destroyed in their conference championship game due to missing over 20 players to Covid protocols right?

Yes I do, smartass. And their fans should've been just as upset about that.

Tell UTSA_Alum that I sent him my regards, even though he insulted my education.
