Never said we weren’t bad, but I know unbalanced officiating when I see it. If you knew half as much as you pretend to know you’d understand that coaches can influence how a game is called.

Not good refs in football.  Basketball absolutely because there are so many more gray area judgment calls and far more calls in general.  Working the refs in at FBS level and above is very over rated.  Get your team prepared to play well and the calls with balance out most of the time.

You suck as a Mean Green fan. You start a thread and then fall asleep and missed the entire first half. To your credit, you use this forum to catch up on what happened.

The same thing happened that happens every week, masochism.  

[Pseudo Nym]

If you're seeing the JFK/Rice Ad on ESPN online, he actually makes fun of Rice in that speech when he talks about doing the impossible and asking "Why does Rice play Texas?" and got a good laugh out of the crowd

Looking at the box score during halftime and discovered that Rice’s scoring drive for a FG was 25 plays. That is incredible, although our stupid penalties resulted in most of those. Wonder what the record number of plays is for a scoring drive resulting in a FG.

Trust me if you were tired and sleepy when this game started you would have been in a state of Perpetual sleep by now

2nd half is where we shine!

Why are these stupid accounts allowed for the sake of smart assed comments while threads are shut down because those running the board don’t care for the direction of the conversation?

25 plays with two unsportsmanlike plays from the defense! Most wild drive!

[Venson]

Now that the second half has started, let's see if we the normal happens. What is the normal? The other team will make adjustments and we will not and then we will be beaten. The choice is do we make adjustments and hang on or do we not and lose? What say you?

When a running back lowers his head and lead with the crown of his helmet why is it not targeting?

So when a ball-carrier lowers his head and leads with the crown of his helmet, it’s not targeting?

His account has been put on hold/moderation.

#2 needs to keep his damn mouth shut before he ends up getting a penalty

You mean garbage time? Totally agree!

[UNTLifer]

Why do our punt returners do that?  Come up and catch the ball!

Why do you respond to this dipshit

[emmitt01]

I know I’m just a dumb ol’ fan…but at what point do you change your punt return strategy to prevent them from basically fair catching their own punts inside our 10 yard line?

[ntmeangreen11]

I like that the defense is talking a lot of shit, they are shutting them down for the most part.

Just dont get physical.

[Wookies]

I wish we would field a punt.

[UNTLifer]

Jackson is worse than Featherstone. 

[El Paso Eagle]

If we had a halfway decent quarterback we would be up by at least two touchdown maybe three

[Cerebus]

Missing those deep routes isn't totally on the QBs.  If a WR goes up and gets his hands on the ball he has to come down with it.  

[emmitt01]

How the hell do you throw the ball 3 yards in front of your receiver from a distance of 10 yards??!!
