Yeah, I don’t like that answer. We’ve shown multiple times that we’re unable

to hold leads despite hot starts (most recently Iowa State and Wisconsin).

It reminds me of our football team this season, where I still believe they were a team of destiny, but we consistently one nail-biters, which didn’t bode well for the CFP rankings (granted, we were a defense-led team).

Honest question: Are we capable of blowing out teams, instead of nail-biters?

Yes-and we have. Does the Kansas game not ring a bell? Going forward though-

That was a great showing, we were in control the whole game.

BYU was two or three officiating-led swings from a 15+ win over Wisconsin.

We are playing all really good teams at this point. Blow-outs would be unusual.

I would not call VCU a nail bitter.

Refs won't allow it.

The other team usually gets ultra aggressive on defense and they are allowed

I think you’re the only one who has agreed with me lol. Everyone else blames it

I mean the refs play a part for sure, but I think KY slows things down purposefully too. That hurts our offense because
