Frustrating

[NotAnAlum]

I'm not that upset at the lost.  GT was the favorite.  What is frustrating is the inability to keep games like this close so we at least have a chance to win it with some luck at the end.  In the past Buzz's teams have had the ability to stay in games.  For this team when things go badly they just seem to get worse.

This game was truly lost in the first half through a lot of lazy passes.  MU seems to like to come out playing this kind of loose ball.  Maybe they think this is the way you show your swagger.  The problem is that turns into passes that are easily picked off.  Take away those first half TO s and the game is probably tied at the half.  A 10 point hole against GT is like a 10 point deficit to Wisconsin.  Keep the score close at half and we'd have been likely to be close the whole game.

It seems like Buzz may have lost his cool some what which lead to the critical T.

The L really puts the pressure on for the Pitt game.  Things could get out of control if we lose to Pitt and then face 2 on the road followed by Syr.  Win against Pitt, Win one of 2 on the road and we are right back in stride.
