We went from a Top 10 team to potentially being out of the playoffs in one quarter. Pretty large beat-down by W. Illinois head coach over Spack here.

Do not feel well about SDSU game. A much better passing attack than WIU. And NDSU next. Playoffs look very slim.

Fake punt attempt in their red zone down just 3 with 13 mins still .. yeesh.

Someone has some explaining to do on that dumb ass call.

Getting outcoached and outplayed .. they adjusted to what we were doing. The fake punt nonsense and KR fumble just killed us.

The Defense is getting mauled but it really is the offense that has done nothing this half. Bad play calling and bad execution. I am not sure but I don't think the Redbirds even have a first down the second half.

Again, how is Harris an All American?!?

6’0” 200+ looks good on paper.

#10 Burnt toast twice in the 2nd half in costly situations (homerun ball after the fake and 3rd and long scramble at potentially a long FG attempt)

Many have said it, and they’re absolutely correct...our turf is an optical atrocity.

Does anyone have count on how many rushing attempts #25 and #21 had in the 3rd quarter? Why abandon the best part of the offense! Would have liked to see #5 in there too.

I don't know how many carries they had but I don't think you will need two hands to tally it up!

how this team goes from world beaters to a complete atrocity in the span of a quarter is maddening. No points allowed in over 6 quarters, then 31 in about 16 min...

Defies all logic. I don’t understand anything this coaching staff does.
Spack better get this team rolling the next two weeks or....

Imagine that! The one time we run it we get 21 yards.
Whoever is calling these plays need to be let go after the game for not dancing with girl who brought us.
