Are we the most boring team to watch?

I think so. I mean the losses suck, but I remember losing exciting games in the past. No more. Boring as hell.
Now I get excited about a 6 yrd run, or an 11 yard pass. I’m bummed when we get tackled at the 1, cause I know we ain’t getting 7 points.
Then I watch teams all over the country bust long runs and TD passes. Even teams that stink, like NCst. Ugh.
I used to think Iowa was the most boring but I think we’ve surpassed them.

Yea everything offensively for this team has been a HUGE challenge the last few years … very predictable and boring and like you I get surprised now when I see a 15 yard pass or 20 yard run bc they have been so far and few between. The unc game last year was somewhat exciting bc we were chunking it down the field but that was a blip unfortunately.

As I recall, UNC did not play defense last year. As a matter of fact, after a decent defensive showing in the first few games, the Tarholes are relapsing.

Very tru… just saying we were letting it rip down the field and taking chances and seemed like we could do about what we wanted even with Cade in his first start. I feel like if this team played that same unc team we would struggle to score 14!though…

Very similar to when West brought in Steve Ensminger to fix the offense. Lots of hype and excitement, but nothing seemed to change.

But the constant looming threat of giving up a defensive score is hardly boring

Well, I think Iowa fired their OC today. Maybe they realized something was not good.

My neighbor (an Iowa fan) said that he had a “points” clause in his contract and he wasn’t getting it done.

That can be your opinion.
But I still look forward to watching the Tigers play each week.
Just a lifelong habit, I suppose.
And I don’t really care what other people think about it.
