Even if they come back and win, having to mount a desperation comeback against an average team at home is not good.

Correct call. Runner hit elbow first, which is down. Ball rolls out on impact, he's still down.

Are we going to guard their tight end at some point? He dropped that one, but he was open for a first down.

I think it was probably the correct call, but it was hard to tell definitively from the views they showed.

Not putting money on it, but odds are Sawyer leads the team to victory. He's a leader and the best QB we've had in a decade. Still this K state team is really weak.

Sawyer is not clutch
The D is a joke
The team has no fire

This team fights hard. It just does a ton of stupid **** around that fight to lose games.


That is one of the few positives of an Aranda team. They never give up. Of course… they have to be that way because they're always trying to dig out of a hole that they made.

1 and 3 aren't true. Sawyer is very clutch and we have fire. We just have to fall behind by two scores to find it.

This team fights hard. It just does a ton of stupid **** around that fight to lose games.

Blind to open receivers multiple times

Fails to run for big yards when opportunity is there

Misses throws to wide open receivers multiple times
