I already thought that there was a very good chance he was going to be let go before the last game. And then the Ravens game happened, and one would think that should have made it where there was absolutely no doubt.
To give up 404 yards on the ground is unforgiveable. It's the 4th most all time in the history of the league . And 2 of the 3 ahead of us occured in the 1950's. (Not exactly apples to apples)
Making it even worse was the Ravens started pulling guys towards the end of 3rd quarter. They were up 38-3 after the 3 quarters. Even when they were playing backups, and we knew they were going to run and were going to eat time, we still couldn't stop them.
We gave 38 points in a game where the opponent only threw for 121 yards. That's crazy. We recorded no sacks, and no fumbles. We allowed them over 40 minutes in time of possesion. They averaged 7.5 yards a carry on a whopping 54 rushing attempts. Lou had absolutely no answers.
To see these types of stats in a professional game is almost unreal. This is something you might see if Alabama plays Stony Brook or something. Or a nationally ranked HS team like St. X playing a smaller school, a division or 2 lower, like New Richmond. To see this at this level, especially in a division game, is something else entirely.
And Mike, and Katie, and Duke, and Zac thought it was a good idea to bring this turd back??? The guy who has produced two bottom of the barrel defenses in consecutive years, and had a number of players speak out about his scheme and coaching during the season?
We not only elected to bring back the head coach who would have been fired pretty much everywhere else, but we can't even make a change at either of cooridnator spots? Insanity.
My only answer to this game is that it was the last game of the year. Players didnt care. Coaches didnt care.
Players literally gave up when that game got out of hand.
Yea the Ravens are a LOT better team than us, but no team should be able to run on your for over 400 yards.
However, hey keep running. I'd rather than run up the score, get 500-600 yards rushing than kneeling on the ball.
Hopefully, it embarrassed the team enough to give a damn this year.
