Spot on.

Doesn't matter who starts the season at QB.  Mays will knock himself out 1/2 way through the first game anyway.  We've seen him for 3 years now and I don't think he's made 2 games in a row yet?
There is no doubt in my mind we have much better talent on the D than the O, but you can't win in today's game with just D.  You've got to put up 28 minimum and if anybody can see this team doing that, please speak up, I'll feel a lot better than I do now!

Double ET:

O will not put up 28 points in league play unless a new QB emerging (other than Mays) or defense scoring 2 tds (or put the ball inside the two yard line) in a game.
I still think we could be capable being a .500 team if O would not turn the ball over couple of times a game, especially in our side of the field.

ET, lots of "IF's" in your comments.  Do you see any of that happening?  Mays doesn't throw many INTs, since he takes a quick look 5 yards downfield, if somebody isn't wide open, he tucks and runs, but I see a lot of RB fumbles with Turner as your every down back, (we fumbled 20 times last year, forced 11) and a lot of 2nd and 12 and 3rd and 14 with this O line.  We (all of us) have focused on the HUGE question at QB, correctly so IMO, but we have made little comment about losing most of what was at best a very mediocre OL and with the exception of a "one and done" WVU transfer in, added NOTHING.  One thing about ANY defense, if it has to play 75 plays it is going to get toasted in the 2nd half.  I see a LOT of 3 and outs in our future.  I wish I could see 6-6 but Frankly I see more like 3-9 None of the QB's is as good as Montgomery, None of the RBs is as good as McCaster. None of the OL is better than the replacements with a push at center.  DL should be better, LBs a push and DB much better, but OH BOY that offense looks offensive.

goodnews:
Anything less than 7-5 with this schedule and someone needs to go.
