In the post game radio interview, Rocky Long seemed optimistic about 2013. He pointed out that only 16 seniors leave. Also stated that the nucleus of a strong team returns.

I heard that, too, and he's right in general. However, the wide receiver position is a major concern. I wonder how Eric Judge and Lloyd Mills fared in their redshirt years.
Also, while I think King Holder allayed worries about one of the open corner spots last night, the other one goes to someone entirely untested.
It's like we could be 90 percent really good and be undone by the other 10 percent.

Too bad he wasn't more bullish on winning the BYU game. It still pisses me off to no end that we let a 7-5 unranked mediocre team beat us.

BYU did not beat us last night.....we beat ourselves. Big difference. We dropped two easy interceptions including an easy "pick six" and, of course had a TD taken away by a penalty. Add in five turnovers and voila....you beat yourself. I would have gone for it when we were up 3-0 rather than kick the field goal at that juncture because going up 10-0 would have been almost impossible for BYU to recover from. Oh well.....we are going to beat Ohio State so last night's game will be a lost memory on Sept. 8.

It was for the most part pathetic.

You want Rocky to show weakness on the radio? Why? Not good leader tell you bad things. Got to keep the team believing even if the fans don't.
Some of our fans are into blood letting and personal flogging.
Some times it is OK not to share or say anything. What did Opra do to us?

AzWm What else could he say? Nice way to deflect the fact that he's now 1-6 in bowl games. Or, he's exactly right. Since when has Rocky ever been a smoke blower? It's not in his nature.
