We had a bad game against UNL, where we did a lot of uncharacteristicly bad stuff in the first pressure game playing together. We lost one of our two returning “glue” guys in that game. We likely had to take a rest day Saturday or Sunday, which means we had one full practice to try to adjust, and then off to Vegas, Baby. Probably one light practice there and then played a pretty good SDS who always seems to have our number. Fellas were trying to adjust to new roles and seemed pretty tentative. We had to turn around and play next day. Essentially little time to work on the things that I am sure coaches have identified. We were better at times yesterday, but clearly a work in process. We will have some time today to work on things, and then a couple more days after they get home Friday. I expect it to look better Friday (I think we win), and better yet against KU, UNLV and Bama. Might go 2-2 those 4 games, but I expect you will see a markedly different team by end of December. I have seen these coaches pull some great adjustments over the years. Frankly, I think the challenge may breathe new life into Mac and his staff. Things were pretty easy for him last severals years (6 game skid a couple years back aside).
