well I'm out. I can't watch anymore of this. This team was completely unprepared for this game and I look at the top for that. For all of you Best apologists out there, sorry, but its time for him to go. Its clear that he cannot win on a consistent basis now that hes out from Baldwin's shadow.

That's a bit dramatic.

how so? We've won two games against marginal FCS teams, got walloped by NDSU, and lost a game we should have won in OT to FBS Fresno State. That's a game a Baldwin coached team would have won. After today's performance I'm curious in knowing what people are seeing from this team to be optimistic? Our run defense was absolutely abysmal and seems to have taken a huge step back from last week. Our offense can't score TD's in the red zone. At least our special teams played well, which is a complete anomaly from years past. Best's teams just don't seem to have that same wasta that we've had in the past. It doesn't seem like we're recruiting the Cooper Kupps and Samson Ebukams of the world anymore, and it shows.

This is an exceptionally bad take. Davis is a pretty good team. At least middle of the road for the BSC. I would day that this was a really solid win for the Eags. As for the rest of your post, I’d be interested in comparing records. Baldwin’s teams really didn’t take off until after the NC season in 2010.
Go ahead and look. The records and accolades are not even close. We've regressed a ton the past 5-6 years. If we don't make it to 7-4 this year following the worst season in 20+ years the AD needs to start asking some serious questions.

Consider this. Eastern sits at 2-2 with the 3rd toughest schedule in the FCS according to Massey. The two teams who have more difficult schedules are both winless. and one of those losses was to us.

EWU will play it's 4th ranked FCS team this weekend, in 4 contests. Add to that - Fresno State is now ranked 25 in the AP Poll. Brutal schedule and they're handling pretty well, to this point. This weekend is probably the toughest test so far (NDSU and Fresno games had little expectation).
