That was a real turning point, and it seemed like some guys on the O-Line were surprised/annoyed to see the clock run out instead of trying a hail mary.
The Hail Mary was a pipe dream. The management before the 2 minute warning was where it was lost. Such simple stuff but has a huge impact. Impacts every play call in the 2nd half being down 14 instead of 7.

As much as this hurt I would rather be us than Oklahoma and Nebraska fans watching their former big 8 foe play for aCFP bid.

Gotta have perspective man. this program has decades of no results. 10 wins is amazing. yes they fell flat today and it sucks but we either are fans or we are not.
Perhaps it would behoove us, as fans, to have realistic expectations of what our boys might achieve in any given year. If we tune into all the hype, without taking into account, the obvious shortcomings,...well, that's on us. These guys were a terrfic group who played their hearts out and showed tremendous possibility. But again, realistically, probably not an elite one. Love them for their effort. Don't hate them for their limitations.

Total s**t show! Sama has no ability in this conference. Living with fantasy over last year KSU reboot is garbage. Rocco is too short and has bad mechanics stated elsewhere. Is it our QB coach that stymies JJ? Maybe goal is to win B12 Title and not 10 games? Mantra is “What have you done for me lately”? CMC needs to study other coaches for motivation and preparation! Tell Heacock to stop giving away his defense moves - ASU used knowledge to beat our ass! Stupid move for ego strokes.
