did any of you felt like U of A ran up the score when it was 4th and goal from the two and already scored I believe 42 on us in the 3rd quarter. I thought it was a classless move by them? What are your thoughts?
Running up score

My thoughts are if you don't want them to score again STOP THEM!! If you lose 100-0 that's your fault! Want to give the miners a participation trophy to?
Yes, they ran up the score. True, but if you don't stop them then then they can do what they want. It'd be different if it was a youth game
I didn't like the 4th down conversion at all. I would have at least like Kugler to cross that field when the game was done and all you could see is him mouthing a bunch of obscenities to Rodriguez. You can't let that stand.
I had stopped watching long before the 4th quarter. I didn't have proper pain medication on hand to endure the brutality. What are you suggesting; take a knee?
How much time was left? Against our Swiss Cheese defense, maybe they just couldn't stop themselves from scoring.

Sorry but it's the 3rd quarter, the game isn't over, and epic comebacks happen all the time in this sport. Take nothing for granted.
Be mad at Kugler for letting the team get blown out at home. Don't be mad at Arizona for doing exactly what they're supposed to do. I know if I were a coach I wouldn't want to put on the breaks in the 3rd quarter out of fear of hurting the opposing teams feelings.
The end of the game featured a whose who of Arizonas third string and they still were able to do whatever they wanted against the defense. I honestly can't remember a UTEP team that is so hopeless on both sides of the ball, even Gary Nords teams gave you some glimmers here and there.

It was the third quarter and you're concerned about running up the score? We tend to promote running up the score by showing up for the kickoff.
USM didn't run up the score with that FG. You wanted them to kneel down instead with 3 minutes left in the game? If they went for it on that 4th down or kicked a FG with 3 seconds left in the game, then yes they did.
