Ukulele, you need to lay off the orange cream Margarita Kool - Aid. Almost every team "plays better" when their opponent starts trading opportunities to score more points for time off the clock. Fourth and eight or nine and Charlie rolled the dice. Lucky for him Purdue went ahead and played prevent.... I don't know why ANYBODY ever plays "prevent, but that's a whole other issue... giving the Irish a great opportunity to make some yardage and another score. Then Purdue went back to work and put the game back out of reach.
I'm not sure about UCLA and what happened to them in Utah, but BC and USC don't look to me to be the kind of teams you can expect to "get better" with.
The more I watch, the more I become convinced the problem isn't talent. It's The Genius.. and you're stuck with him for some time.
