You're entitled to struggle with your own version of it any way you'd like. I really don't have as much time as you seem to in tracking down people who don't agree with your version. And I certainly don't waste time with people who struggle to reach up to the level of 9th grade boy's gym. Kind of nonproductive. I'm not struggling with anything, just calling a spade a spade. Track you down? WTF are you talking about?

And you seem to fancy yourself the self-appointed crusader and protector of Rocky's honor.

But if we're being honest, you must know that I have NEVER called for, or even suggested that he be "slayed". Firing him now---unless there's a total Chuck Long collapse---would hurt the team.

four words: high risk = high reward. we are normally in trouble when opposing teams have good QBs and WRs. Anybody is for that matter. Rocky even told us how much troubler they would be. I think he knows what he is saying. Of course, remember our DL is inexperienced, and rather small. The DB's cannot be expected to stay with a WR, if the DL does not get to their QB, and make him throw quicker. Even with 4 rushing we didn't do it. That is the main reason the defensive backfield could not cover the WR's all night. Rocky even said that in the post game interviews. Did anybody listen to him? When we get larger, and faster linemen it will help our defense play much better. Plus, I think we may be forgetting that a good passing team is never out of the game no matter how far they get behind. A good passing team can change the score quickly. We have done it many times in the past ourselves.

Now you guys understand why Rocky was nervous about ND.
Next game, please.

The question is, can he do anything about it?

Fresno state will be a huge test for us. They put up 69 on a Pac12 team* and we gave up 41 to an FCS team.
*Colorado is hardly considered "Pac12"

so is Rocky the problem, the players or the 3-5-5? 3-5-5 ? Great another penalty. That's all we need.

So wait a minute....I just read the post about SJSU and how they almost beat Stanford last week and as you all might be aware by now, Stanford beat USC last night. We almost lost to UND last night and now we'll be playing SJSU next week........I get the sense Stanford last week was looking past SJSU to USC, so maybe just maybe SDSU was looking past UND last night........are you following me? Our defense might not be as bad as we think, they probably just got bored and was just thinking of SJSU, or so I'm hoping. OR, San Jose State is just a whole lot better than we want to believe, yes? USC and San Jose State had similar results against Stanford so SJSU must be as good as USC? Is that what you're saying? Who you are responding to had a great point. Stanford must have played a much better game against USC than SJSU. I highly suspect we will play a much better game against SJSU than UND.

For you to leap to the conclusion that USC and SJ were being equated, is not very perceptive.

I figured you'd be vague. Guys with loser attitudes like yours hate making predictions, they'd rather sit on the fence and bitch regardless of the outcome. I'd love to se you predict wins and losses so you could STFU when Rocky wins games you thought he'd lose. Wow, what a comeback. Do you have enough of a sac to say whether you think we'll beat SJSU?

Do you have enough of a sac to say whether you think we'll beat SJSU? You know, it would sure be a lot more interesting discussing issues with you if you didn't seem to let this get personal. Why get so upset? To answer your question----and since no one can know which of our teams will show up---I think we may win by a touchdown. But if their QB is on, like the guy Saturday, we'll lose.

Reasonable. but we could still win 49 to 42. There QB is a JC transfer good arm no wheels.

But if their QB is on, like the guy Saturday, we'll lose. You actually didn't answer the question and are straddling the fence again just like i said. Do you think Rocky and Co. will win or lose on Saturday?...a 1 word answer is all that's required. Thanks.

Not picking sides mind you, but what kind of answer is that? Now which is it?

Weather is the most convenient excuse..........when you lose. Next to officiating. Frankly, I'm very weary of how so many Aztecs continue to rely on them to excuse piss poor performances.

Big time coaches (Urban, Saban, etc) will give respect to opponents, but never are they afraid and telling people their opponents are good. They just say nice things to be polite and whoop them up. I get so tired of Rocky giving himself an "out" before games he should win. If they happen to lose he can say "I told you so". I think that isn't the mentality of a good coach. Prepare for the worst, expect the best, but don't tell your team the opponent is good so many times your team begins to believe it! Come on, have some sack and tell your guys we are better and will show them come Saturday.

Must be cool to be in the locker room with the team and to be able to go to all of the closed team meetings... you are a lucky guy.
