Why the reversion, though? Why did the "team that won 2-3 road games for Hauck's entire tenure" show up tonight instead of Coach Sanchez' #TheNewEra Rebels? It's just frustrating and I can't blame anyone who is turned off by this performance. NOT TO MENTION (and I hadn't thought of this til now...) that this game was on NATIONAL TELEVISION. ESPN2. Not CBSSports or ESPN streaming or the MWN. ESPN2... and you go out there and lay an egg? It was Hauck. That's all I can say about it. And I thought that Hauck's Rebels were dead and buried. We had 5 games to support the optimism and enthusiasm surrounding the program. That went out the window.
Don't get me wrong, I'll still be there cheering every step of the way, and I hope others will too. And I'll even say that Having one "Hauck" game out of 6 isn't all that bad when you consider that the team is largely made up of Hauck players with Hauck tendencies. But like I said, this was just a terrible time for Hauck to have his homecoming. When the opponent was sooooooo beatable, the exposure was greater than ever, AND WE HAD A BAD TEAM DOWN 14 POINTS IN THE 3RD QUARTER... Sanchez' Rebels needed to finish the game. They didn't.
Time to try and sleep this one off.
