I agree. I think any Air Raid offense has that philosophy. I said during the Briles years at Baylor that you had to recalibrate what was considered “good” defense. For those Baylor teams and for several OU teams (and maybe for USC this year), give up 35 points and there’s a very good chance you’re winning the game. That being said, I realize this game was a little different with Navy’s ball control offense…but we still should have won.

I used to love watching amateur sports on Saturday’s in the fall, but that’s a thing of the past I guess.

Only when we start recruiting heavily out of state🤣🤣

If that’s all they were doing, they would have just taken a delay of game. Honestly, I thought they were going for it. The one RB seemed upset that the other one went in motion. Based on field position and the way they had run the ball all afternoon, wouldn’t have been a bad decision.

Plus, kick the field goal in the 1st quarter on 4th and 3.

This!!!

This. The game was lost (if that ends up being the case) on the TD reversal in the the 1st quarter. We’re on the one foot line and don’’t score.

Sorry for anyone who placed a bet on the over. Who would have guessed this score?

I had a great time as I usually do. Some great observations made in this thread. I drive right at 2 hours to the games, so I got a head start on the drive home and didn’t stay for the drone show. I wanted to, but I knew I could be about halfway home by the time it ended. Glad to hear it was worth staying for though. Next time I might choose to stay. Minor complaint: Why can’t the NE scoreboard show more scores? It kept showing the same 9 scores over and over. I’ve noticed in the past they don’t show a lot of scores, but never realized it was so few. I don’t want scores constantly running, but maybe during a timeout run through 20-30 different games.

Yeah, you may be right. Bad assumption on my part that they only design the uniforms and not the helmets too.

I don’t know which would be worse, calling off the dogs after one quarter or only being able to beat an average FCS team by 14.

That Arizona St. uniform looks pretty good. The helmet…not so much, but I assume Adidas isn’t designing the helmet.

The 1st quarter is the way an FBS team is supposed to dominate an FCS team. After the 1st quarter the offense wasn’t great and the defense is what we’ve come to expect after 4 weeks. We were outscored after the 1st quarter and that’s pretty sad. I know the drive to start the 2nd half was 15 plays and 75 yards in about 5:00, but I thought it was pretty underwhelming considering the opponent.

Guess how I’m feeling about now?

A local school district to me had a bond election to build an indoor facility (which passed by the way). The superintendent said something to the effect of, “All the other local districts have indoor facilities and our kids deserve to have one too.”

Your point is valid, but I think you have to go to 4A, maybe even 5A to get a stadium with 8,000 seats.

These two things have about an equal chance of happening.🤣🤣🤣

If we score less than 50 and give up more than 20, I most likely won’t feel great about it.

This guy has made $45k and lives rent-free in a high rise apartment…all while redshirting. It’s not even pay to play, it’s pay to be on the team and maybe play in the future. I think we’d all take that deal.

100% True. I don’t blame the players, I just don’t like the system. It’s pay to play under the code name NIL.

I didn’t watch much of the Cal game, but I believe they were down 14-0 before Washington’s offense ever took a snap. That’s hard to overcome for any team, especially an underdog who knows everything has to go right if they want to have a chance at an upset. Probably going to be a tough year for Cal, but who expected the PAC 12 to be so loaded.

Fun fact: Their head coach is Tim Beck who was head coach at RL Turner and Mansfield Summit

Morris comes in and does the right thing by being respectful of players and trying to build relationships and where does that get him? It truly is a selfish, look out for #1 business. Thanks for posting. Some great insight gained from reading it.

You’re not the only one, but you’re standing in a pretty short line.

I looked up the scoring summary because I was interested to see how they went from 3 points to 21 points. Three touchdowns with three failed 2 point conversions. I like our odds against them if it comes down to a 2 point conversion.🤣🤣
