Rockne's Roundtable

Pathetic. So disappointed. Not daynes fault at all. Very sloppy. Will never ever win against anyone with 3 turnovers inside the 10. Wow. Defense was solid. Didn't give up much but didn't make any plays either. USF made plays we didnt

Dayne failed to produce.

This boils down to production, and while there were certainly idiotic mistakes made by all, Dayne Crist consistently fails to produce.

Maybe he's awesome in practice, Mr. Popular in the locker room, and has the physical characteristics of an NFL-caliber QB, but for Christ's sake he simply can't get it done when we need it.

ONE bad play and he buckled after that opening drive. He is weak, and I genuinely hope they don't give him a 5th year because he simply isn't needed here.

He's the problem because his ONE saving grace as starting QB was his alleged leadership ability.

Had he rallied the troops, bolstered support from his offense, and came right back down the field to score, this dark cloud of bullshite that plagued our team all night wouldn't have lasted more than a few measly minutes.

Instead, he buckled under the pressure and his ineptitude only served to amplify our self-defeating nature the entire game.

Atlas, you were.... **cough cough** right.
