Umm. I'm realistic not pessimistic. Big difference.
Been to all 9 games and thoroughly enjoyed every second before during and after the games regardless of what is happening on the field. Going to the last three games too, four if we end up in Indy.
Again pessimism and realism have different meanings. Pointing out obvious flaws in a team is being an analyst and doesn't mean one isn't enjoying this ride. Anyone who doesn't see some of the obvious flaws I've pointed out either doesnt watch the games or hasn't seen how this defense is still not prepared for OSU. Maybe they will be by tomorrow. Maybe by the night before the game. Maybe never. But they're not ready today. That is realism not pessimism.
