Welp, at least the Football Necks can take comfort with all of the other student athletes in all the other WIU sports.
WIU doesn't have any winners in any sports. They can all commiserate together. No need to feel upset apathy and numbness has set in (at least for me).

I love the QB draw but when it becomes your bread and butter, you got serious problems.

Onside fails. Ball game. This has been a very frustrating last month of football.

As a techie, I wonder if the video board could have been used as a backup scoreboard and clock given the right software, etc. was installed.

Probably can be, but would take some setup to do. Wouldn't be able to on short notice.

My two cents on our troubles during this season are this: I do not sense any cohesiveness between offense and defense. They do not have each other's back. Playing as two separate units which they are but if things are working right, they should be able to feed off of each other.
