• The Mean Green kickers had a very good day, hitting on 8/9 field goal attempts, including a 4-4 effort from sophomore Ethan Mooney (Fort Worth), connecting from 41, 43, 45, 46.

Run of the Day: Redshirt sophomore running back Tre Siggers (Duncanville, Texas) continued to stand out, ripping off a 42-yard touchdown run, exploding through a hole and off to the races on a fourth and one play.

 

I've been seeing his name pop up pretty frequently as of late.  Between Siggers, Torrey, and Easly, we seem to be in good shape in the RB position.   Hopefully we can use them to help build some leads, and then kill the clock when needed.  It's going to be a fun year.  GMG!

@Felozano tre looked pretty dang good in that scrimmage highlight they just released.  A couple fantastic runs between the tackles.

Who’s Patrick Mahomes? I thought the play reminded me of Favre or Kordell Stewart.

I just saw the video.  He runs with a sense of urgency.  Strong, powerful, and fast!  I look forward to seeing him in action against ACU.  GMG!

A lot of big runs in these scrimages has me nervous... hope it's just the creative new running schemes and not our interior line and lbs being soft.

Over 100 plays today you’re going to have big runs just as much as we read our defense stoning our running backs for no gain

• Fine burst up the middle on a designed quarterback run for a huge 67-yard touchdown.

It's on a thread referring to Aune's pass.  It's in the comments.

I don’t want to go into “kill the clock” mode. That is what killed us last year. Keep the throttle on full and blow teams outs. I was at the ODU game...

I'm not a fan of designed quarterback runs with Fine. Hopefully those are rarely used.

It seems like Reeder is a bigger proponent of the read option based on what I've seen. Mason can move, and as long as he's safe, I don't mind a few keepers on those read options.

Buuuut QB draws/sweeps? Nah fam.

Ha!  Good point. Tee it high and let it fly!

Harrell dialed up QB powers at the goalline on several occasions. Always made me shake my head in disbelief. He's our bellcow offensive player that gets the offense going and you run him between the tackles in a power scheme vs a bear front. Just, dumb.
