Now no one has ever accused me of being overly positive but I do think we will be ok. Now will we be 0-4 going into conference play maybe but I do think Coach Bell will get the team right. I mean if we were that bad we would not have hung with State even if they are not all that great they are an FBS team

I know the offense didn’t do them any favors, but I would argue against the D being OK. We gave up more than 300 yards passing for the second week in a row, and when Campbell started running the ball we struggled to stop it. I know they played a lot of snaps, but hard to blame the O when you allow a 95-yard TD drive.
That being said, the O stunk. We looked better and more composed against a ranked P4 team last week. But again, I am hopeful that we were simply playing overconfident and the Camels are a really good football team who rode momentum to this win.
Wofford beat a ranked Richmond. Mercer is 2-0. Citadel might not get a ton of wins but they are going to fight every game. We know Furman and Chatty are always tough games. With Elon, Montana, and then the SoCon slate - maybe I would be ok with a D2 game thrown into this schedule.
Still pulling hard for the Cats, but this is a big letdown.

The offense didn't play great and Cole had a really bad game but the blame is on the coaches...Our coaching staff got played today from start to finish...It feels like Campbell had a film of our game plan before hand and knew what was coming.....It is unheard of a team having 3 turnovers and 15 flags and still winning the game....I feel like I'm going to wake up from this nightmare any minute now....

I do have to wonder if our OC might not be ready to be the OC

Not a good day for the SoCon, Furman just got beat by Charleston Southern in Traveler's Rest.

I walked from our seats and stood behind the bench. We have sooo many injuries. The sideline looked like an infirmary! Why so many injuries? Also, Campbell was so undisciplined with penalties and turnovers. They were beatable.
We simply were not ready. Unsure why? 12,500 in attendance and we totally blow it.
Embarrassing, very much so.
By the way, single coverage by our 5’ 10” DB on a 6’ 6” receiver? Come on, really?
We have lost our last three games and may be 0-7 in a month.
🤷🏻♂️

Still have a question when we can’t stop the run WHY not use a freshman DL no 99 that benched 500+ in high school. To heck with redshirting players if they may can help NOW?

Catman 72 Great observation that it felt like they had a copy of our game plan - had the same thought myself - and how could that happen?
