I really want to close out the regular season 4-0 (which would give us a 6-3 conference record) but obviously don't see that happening. In a way, if we lose @ UCLA, I want to see SSWS get his shit pushed in so badly that more people (Doogs or not) start seeing what we've been seeing. If we lose @ UCLA, screw the moral victories from a 4 point loss, I'd rather lose 34-13 and see the Fat Club Hopping Hamster again have just as many 3 and outs as punts (like the Debacle In The Desert II).
Yes it will make Wilcox look worse than he is but any DAWG fan with half a brain will know that having to defend 85+ plays on D will make nearly any DC look bad (especially one that is starting a former walk-on TE on the DL because Sarkisian missed so badly on DL other than Kikaha, Shelton, and Cree from 2010-2012. I'm not writing Turpin off yet but it didn't help that Vatuvei hurt his knee and then was a dud of a teammate (2012 class).
Cree? Don't be one of those guys who anoints a player because he made one notable play. Connor Cree is not a guy who plays if you have a championship caliber team. And I think you can write Turpin off. If we had a team with great depth, you could say he is just a redshirt freshman and to give him some time. However, he doesn't play and we basically play anyone with a pulse on the DL.
