Well, I agree that Herman lost this game. And the offense, AND the defense. As many Hornfans have already stated it was a total team loss.
Offense was hobbled the first half by brain dead play calling. Way too cautious, way too conservative and way too stupid (not taking the passes which were being given to us). ISU was daring us to pass the whole game. Stacking the line and daring us to pass. when we stuck with the pass game we did well.
So the offense lost.
Defense played really well in spots. They "only" allowed 23. Problem is isu only needed 22 to win. In two of the last three games, the offense has fought back in the final minutes to take the lead. All we need from the defense is a stop, and we win the game. We punt the ball back to ISU with a little over 4 minutes left. They take over around their own 35. All we need to do is keep them out of field goal range. In other words, GET A STOP IN CRUNCH TIME. But no, they cannot get a stop. ISU drives down inside our 30 and kick a chip shot field goal .
So the defense lost.
Our loss today was a total team effort. Coaching sucked. We were totally out coached. ISU was better than Texas on both sides of the ball. Played smarter, with more guts, better discipline.
Del Conte has some serious thinking to do about the football program. It is not in good shape, or good hands.
