Lucky we didn't get called for PI in the end zone.

Discouraging to see a 3rd and inches penalty on us to push us back then we punt, on top of the unnecessary roughness earlier that gave them the ball back.
Our passing game seems shot. Or too easy to defend…

Offense needs to find some consistency. And D needs to put some pressure on the QB. He looks like he weighs about 150 but has all day to find a receiver.

Disappointed we are not making a better showing in a big game but Idaho is very good.

Got to clean up the penalties. That’s making a huge difference.

Their defense is gassed. Too bad we couldn't have kept them on the field longer in the first half.

Great second half. Glad we made a game of it. Too many mistakes in the first half and I wish we would have changed something up on defense to get more pressure on their QB.

Good second half adjustments and defense held strong. Game flow maybe helped us in the fact that Idaho quit throwing down field as much, on top of the fact their QB missed short a handful of times, but nice plays by Tyson Williams and defense did their part.
Offense came alive but too little too late. Their rush was good. #1 is legit. Maverick played OK, stepped up in the pocket well to avoid more sacks as they were close often. I think we missed Banks tonight and needed just a bit more burst from a playmaker.
I’m proud of the resilience but we gotta start better next week, these last two games aren’t indicative of a winning team mindset, but more of a ‘we have some talent and are happy to show it’ feel. Buckle up and let’s go next week from the start.

SFA destroyed Northern Colorado 48-7. We have lots of tough games left. Have got to start off better.

Tech and Idaho games have shown that we can hang with anyone. But I'm ready to get an upset in a big game. That is the next step for this program.

We got out coached this game. Plus, the 89-yard kickoff return to start the second half cost us any reasonable hope of a win. Our coverage on the long run was truly bad. Our offense was very unimaginative for most of the game. The Vandals were a whole lot more deceptive than the Wildcats. We did not even pick up on a key third down play when they had their running QB in the game and easily made a first down as time was slipping away. Correction: first running play after kickoff in second half.

That wasn’t a kick return. But still, not a good way to start the half.

Too many mistakes, penalties (some questionable) and a porous defensive backfield. Idaho ran plays into their players’ strengths. We seemed sluggish again on offense for 3 quarters. We can score quicker than most teams, but I’ll be darned if I know what lights the fire under our guys to get them revved up. Perhaps our OC can figure that out.

I have to keep reminding myself that this was the #4 team in the country and we were picked to lose by 13.5. We are so close.
