I'm sitting in my basement with a giant U emblem on my wall, a U fleece blanket, a Miami flag flying, **** my wife even got me a **** Miami scentsy for when company is over. I say all of this to say that I bleed orange and green for the U and Al Golden has completely stolen that passion. I wasn't looking forward to the game against Louisville, I was dreading it. A program that used to live on aggression and speed has turned slow and methodical. An opponent would never be more aggressive, fast and brash than we would be, regardless of if we were good or not.
Now, I cringe anytime we play an opponent with a pulse and I'm just hoping not to get blown out. If this isn't a referendum of where our program currently stands, I'm not sure what is. We continue to let opponents walk all over us, tell us about it and continue to do the same slow, methodical, conservative game plan on both sides of the ball.
I just want aggressive and fast again, and maybe that dread will go away as well.
