The dumbest fake punt in the history of dumb fake punts

Halo · 09-29-2014, 10:27 AM

The timing of the fake punt was horrible. We had momentum for the first time all game, were only down two touchdowns, there was like 7:30 left on the clock and the Cowgirls were choking.

It was a dumb idea that we even attempted it at all because if it fails, you give momentum and the ball to your opponent between your 35 and 40. If you succeed, maybe a first down. But the risks were insane because of the deflation factor - this team has had zero momentum most of the seasons and we just gave it away.

It was more proof this coaching staff is way out of touch with what is happening on-field.

Nailed it.

Coaching staff have not got our team ready for this year and they all need to be held accountable

Especially SP, he's too stubborn to admit he's wrong and his stubbornness is hurting our team.
