Absolutely brutal. I don't think I have ever seen worse execution by a football team. Frohnapfel has regressed to the point where he should no longer start. And the penalties -- only 12 so far today -- are embarrassing.

You need two scores...kick a field goal.

The defense hasn't been terrible, let them get the ball back.

Then of course a false start.

That should have led to a field goal attempt, nope, not how we do things, turnover on downs.

It's just really difficult to justify an investment of any kind in this team. Really difficult.

I had all the faith in the world in Mark Whipple when he got hired over a year ago....now, I have absolute ZERO faith in the guy. I hope Bamford looks at this football season as a TOTAL WASTE! Something needs to be fixed STAT!

When does the easy part of the schedule start when we are going to roll over everyone?

I'm done.
This. I think that was his 4th pick this season in the opponents' end zone.

Froh has been intercepted in the end zone at least 7 or 8 times in his career . . . that's got to be a record for the number of games he's played!

Nothing to spin here. Ball State is a bad team. We're worse. Bad offense. Bad defense, despite making several score-saving plays today. Bad special teams. Bad penalties. Bad decisions. Bad coaching. Bad team. Bad season.
