Nothing is more infuriating than how we constantly try to run when we are outnumbered in the box. We also consistently run on 2nd and long which is the least efficient play in football.

At least we go for it on 4th down most of the time, if the next coach has Jason Garrett like philosophies as far as field position and risk go it will be one step forward and two steps back.

I don't expect the score to hold.   But, USM is tied 10-10 with UTSA at the half.    USM is so short at QB , that they started Frank Gore Jr at QB today.    He did play some QB in High School.

17-10 USM.

Aune is the most inaccurate QB I’ve ever seen. I don’t have confidence he can complete a pass. 

[El Paso Eagle]

With Aune staying in the game it seems that either Seth has given into the fact that he is not going to be back or he already knows he's going to be back. Absolutely no logic to why he's not trying someone different at quarterback. Not sure any other coach in America would be sticking with a quarterback in this situation

5 so far

[UNTLifer]

It is mind boggling at best.

5 of 15 for 55 yards.

I mean, the third possibility is SL doesn’t believe the other guys will do better and that Aune is his best chance to win. I get some of you don’t like SL, but he’s not losing intentionally. Even if he knew his status for next year he wouldn’t be doing that.

WTF why is Aune still in the game.  He must have pictures.

If the quarterback room is actually that bad then that is just one more reason that Seth should not be coming back

[El Paso Eagle]

With the exception of one played the defense has played well today

It’s not ideal.

Who is number 11 on offense

Amani Gilmore, Jace Ruder, Will Kuehne, Cade Pearson, Kason Martin, Jason Bean, and only Mason Fine had success.

Sure hope Drummond has something, but you'd think if he did he would be given a shot on a day like today.

start of 2nd half, 3 and out less than a minute. LMFAO!!

[UNTLifer]

We have all of halftime to plan the first drive and that is what they came up with?

We really are a bad team. Bottoms up fellas!

[UNTLifer]

The announcers teased going into the commercial that we may have a new QB. 

[El Paso Eagle]

Enjoying Babe L on the radio. The way UTEP is honoring his son is first class

if this is what $2 million gets with a P5 OC, I do not want to know what $3 million and a P5 DC would look like *shudders*

[UNTLifer]

Damn it!

[untbowler]

nice pass to Burns but imagine if *gasp* Aune could have hit him in stride

 

[untbowler]

McNulty .. I mean Aune with the short field score

[NT93]

I know we scored, but from an inch away, we snap the ball back to the QB at the 4 yard line. Crazy.
