Time to forget about smuT and move on.  We need to hammer TSU and never let our foot off the gas.

Did I hear that they had an Air Raid Offense on the Rudy's show last night?

 

53 yards is more Wishbone offensive numbers

Piling up points against a team like this is meaningless. IF we have a decent lead at the half (or sooner) we should get our backups in and get valuable experience for them so they can hopefully be ready if their numbers are called. If we do not go 3 deep across the board then we are in trouble

To make it seem better  -- I guess you could say we're facing the number 1 pass defense in football 😇

By looking at TSU's total yards, I would of thought that PV just ran and drained the clock but they just couldn't move the damn ball. 

 

The more that I look at ESPN's box scores the less I feel like these are accurate. TSU only punted 6 times and went for it twice. Does that check out? Someone help me, my brain hurts lol

Don't give anybody any ideas. I can see the school flaunting this on Twitter if we have a "big" game against them. Vito's headlines will read "Mean Green's quarterback controversy settled after Aune torches the nation's number 1 pass defense."

105 rushing plays will tend to speed up the game a bit. Not too many possessions to go around with the clock constantly running.

If Aune starts then he only needs to play a quarter (no more than 2 series). Gunnels second quarter and first series of the 2nd half. Then two others split the rest of their time. OL ones play1st half, mixed with twos during 3rd quarter and full on twos during the 4th.  What do you all think?

We need all of the RB group to have 100+ yards...use lots of fresh legs.

I agree, although I would probably give Aune a couple more series. It’s not like that first team offense is hitting on all cylinders.

TSU will be bringing their Band.

I get the attraction the bands from HBCU schools because they are entertaining but they don't sound that great.  Guess I am spoiled.

Yeah, some have a better quality of sound than others.  It's all about the SHOW!

addendum: Having said that. The best High School band I ever heard was at a North Texas homecoming. It was the Waco Carver Band, and I had never heard a HS band that good. And at the time I heard them I had already gone to MANY UIL band contests and Band festivals. 

From wiki......

Carver was opened in 1956 on Dripping Springs Road as part of the La Vega Independent School District in 1956, although it would later become part of the Waco Independent School District. The initial enrollment was 500 in grades 1-12, but it quickly grew to 1,200 by 1962.^[1] In 1967 the band, under direction of Robert E. Lee won the grand prize at the Montreal World's Fair.^[2]

I was less than impressed by the TSU band the last time they came to Apogee.

Sorry... ☹️

If anyone of their receivers have a 100 yard receiving, throw the whole damn secondary away.
