I had a fun format for this piece after the West Virginia game. A recap, followed by some spotlight worthy players and some areas to improve upon. After that “football” game I cannot bring myself to actually write the recap. And in a beating that bad, no one deserves a spotlight.
However, I said this year is my year of optimism, so before I hop into trying to point out what went wrong on Saturday, I will give everyone a much needed shot of hope. Hopefully, that will help all of our dear readers resist the urge to read the next section and cry.
