This guy's a jerk. Player and coaching effort were not lacking
I think we can all see the game plan, especially on defense, was flawed, and that's why the game was lost, among other fluky reasons (Traore ejection, Carr three times overthrowing easy TD passes, fumbled spike snap due to cheating BYU player, no PI call on last play).
But don't say the players lacked effort, because they didn't. This Mad Dog wannabe sucks.
