Offensively we had a nice 3 game honeymoon with Book

Pitt ended that.

I think we will lose at least 2 of the remaining regular season games. And barely get by in the others.

In typical Kelly fashion we get by early with deception but you can only trick teams so much. You have to have competence to win later when teams have so much film on you.

I expect the offense to continue its grinding halt. Defense will get tired and give up some big plays, miss tackles, etc.

And all that after Swarbrick and Kelly have been congratulating themselves in the press.



I agree we're losing 1 or 2 down the road, but

to say that our offense will "continue with the grinding halt" is probably overstating things. Narduzzi is an excellent defensive coach, and he drew up an outstanding game plan, disguising coverages and drawing up blitzes from different points on the field. Without many starts under his belt, it's understandable that he had his troubles on Saturday.

I don't think we're going to play like that the rest of the season, but I do think we're going to get Kelly'd and lay at least one or two turds before the season ends.


Book literally is the NCAA leader in completion percentage.

I'm not sure what more you want from him. He isn't the problem.

I agree Book is not the problem. Kelly is *
