Things that were readily apparent inside the stadium today:
- Gus was out coached by mid Scott Satterfield. Cinci’s offense was varied, including innovative play calling, while Gus continues
to stubbornly insist on trying to run the ball 70% of the time behind a mediocre offensive line.

- Did I mention mediocre O-Line? They are just not that good. Keep hearing about Herb Hand being the “ O-Line whisperer” and yet
we get the same mediocre group every year. RJHarvey runs hard and makes our line look better than they are. Have been
exposed the past 3 weeks after early cupcakes.

- Cinci’s TE hurt us all game (8 catches). Our talented TE Randy Pittman not only did not have any catches, he was not even
targeted once. Would not blame him one bit for going into the portal in December. Is criminal the way Gus underutilizes him.
UCF, where Tight Ends go to die.

- Gus simply does not want to throw the football even though rule changes favor teams who do (can’t touch the QB, can’t touch
WR’s, etc. )

- This is year 4 for Gus and we continue to be one of the worst red zone offenses in college football. He’s always talking about
it and never fixes it.

- Our home field advantage is gone. Teams used to fear coming into the Bounce House but those days are over. Gus has
managed to destroy the aura of invincibility our Stadium once had

- The most damaging thing for our football program is now beginning to rear its ugly head, APATHY is settling in. It can be a program killer if left unchecked.

- This was arguably the most winnable game left on our schedule. We are staring 3-9 or 4-8 squarely in the face.

- Gus replaced both coordinators after last season and yet here we are again with same results.

- Lastly, we had 10 penalties AT HOME today, including one that cost a 10 second run off late in the game. This is a sign

of an undisciplined squad, simply no excuse for it.

Otherwise, hope everyone had fun
