And even that team had a winning record.
Of course I'm not saying it's a perfect analogy, and I completely understand how dire the football situation is (and that fake FG attempt WAS dumbfounding), but would you have not somewhat adjusted your expectations to better fit reality? If KO opened the 06-07 season against a well-above-average team like Wisconsin or OSU and got beat up, would you really be posting as pissed off and depressed as you are now? Not to mention the basketball program had already established a serious tradition of greatness; something our FB team, let's be real, has barely sniffed.
I know it sucks; I'm just saying, there will be growing pains. If you're not here whining and b-tching, this post shouldn't upset you. The team fought today, a lot harder than any fan (especially the students, sad as it is) did. The coaches are figuring out what they have. Coming back from 3-9 and an entire regime change is a process. Life goes on.
