I hate the fact that we play them! First game, last game, in between, doesn’t matter to me, they are all bad options.
We are a more talented team, better coached, and better recruited. It is no longer the biggest deal on our schedule like it was pre-PAC12. Our players, expecially the younger (non-local) ones, are much more likely to look past this game, while the TDS players have a decade of losses (and local revalry knowledge) to motivate them for revenge.
There is no real winning for us; beat them and we have simply done what is expected; loss, and the entire rest of the year is spent trying to claw back from an embarrassing defeat.
Let’s get this game off the schedule!
Instead, let’s either:
1. add another cupcake, like most of P5 teams do to pad thier win totals (this is my vote until we are actually winning enough to be in play off contention)
2. add a REAL challenge matchup – like an SEC team in a neutral location. Win this game, and you have something to talk about, lose, and you are certainly not embarrassed.
Let’s get this game off the schedule!
