Monken just needs to start over. We are not going to a bowl game in spite of having one of the easiest schedules in FBS. (A little know NCAA rule says you cannot attend a bowl game unless you buy a ticket if you lose to an IVY league school.) ESPN said that this was the first time since 1986 that an IVY had beaten an FBS school! None of the other IVY schools even play an FBS school this year.
This game should never have been played at Yale. We had nothing to gain. No home gate, we are supposed to win, third road game in a row. Boo gets a nod on this one too. If they want to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Yale Bowl as I said before , Harvard would be appropriate.
I watched two teams that have no idea how to win Saturday - Army and the US Ryder Cup Team. Monken has a lot of work to change the overall attitude of winning. Gaining weight and better scheduling may help, but it will take more than that.
Our O-Line is a mess. We could not get short yardage on 3rd and short or 4th and short all day. Stanford I can understand. Yale? We also tend to play to our level of competition - just well enough to lose. We get no pressure on the QB and the secondary played well the first week, but has gotten worse. Stupid penalties have been noted in other posts.
It is too bad we have some good skill players that are seniors - we need to play them, but also some younger guys as we hopefully improve. Maybe we can build for the future and get our normal three wins. 13 in a row to Navy is a given based on what we have seen so far even though Navy does not look as good as the last couple of years.
Sucks to have to write off another season so early. Maybe we can get Brady Hoke as an assistant - he will be available soon.
