Here is a list of things the San Diego State football team did not do during its 27-3 loss to Fresno State on Saturday night at SDCCU Stadium:
/cracks knuckles
- Score a touchdown
- Run block
- Pass protect
- Show any poise in the pocket whatsoever
- Stop the run
- Generate a pass rush
- Force a turnover
- Return a kickoff past the 25
- Retain possession of the Old Oil Can.
- Convince anyone they were even going to try to retain said Oil Can
- Exhibit any semblance of fighting spirit after the Boise State loss
- Keep a crowd of more than 40,000 from streaming for the exits early for the second week in a row
Here is a list of things the San Diego State football will now not do in the wake of its 27-3 loss to Fresno State on Saturday night at SDCCU Stadium:
- Win its division now that Fresno State has what amounts to a three-game lead
- Defend the Mountain West Conference title
- Receive an ounce of national attention
- Go to the Fiesta Bowl
- Go to the Peach Bowl
- Go to the Las Vegas Bowl
- Play anyone other than North Texas or Arkansas State or someone of that ilk in anything other than a garbage bowl game played in the middle of nowhere in mid-December
- Have more than 20,000 butts in the seats for either of its final two home games
- Have more than six (6) students attend either game
- Have the 2017 season remembered as anything other than a whopping missed opportunity or a cautionary tale about the hopelessness of San Diego sports
- Inspire me to write anything approaching a coherent recap about that absolute steaming turd of a football game
- Keep me up past midnight
