Well actually, Saturday was mostly just the worst of times. U of U vs Air Force Academy. This was the first test of what our team would be capable of without starting QB and starting running back. And we were tested. In a game where we should have dominated at the line, we were unable to make anything happen with our run. And Andy Ludwig van Brokenbrain, true to form, was incapable of learning from his own failures, so he persisted in trying up-the-gut run plays for all of the first half, even though none of them were successful.
Finally, after the break, we started to run short passing routs. Good, simple, effective football. It was working, and would have been a complete success, but for the fact that Grady is as easy to read as Dr. Seuss. He was picked twice, and there was no other reason for that than good defence, and poor throwing. Even then, we managed to get a drive going, and could have moved into the lead. 3rd down and 1 yard to go on the Air Force 30, and what does Andy Loserwig call? A reverse run play!!! A play that is designed to lose yardage in the hope for a big gain!! Seriously, what is wrong with this guy? Whitt, please can him before he gets you both fired!
I could go on about this for days, but I will hold myself to this: even the up-the-gut nonsense Andy was running all first half was gaining 1 yard per play. Why, in the name of all that is good, do you call a complicated risky play that has the chance of losing yardage? Is Andy seriously that stupid? Unfortunately is seems as though he is.
Oh, and our best receiver got hurt in the game, and is out for the season. Soon enough, they will just let the defense stay on the field for the whole game, because the entire offense will be watching on crutches from the sidelines.
