ESPNU’s cameramen are surprisingly awful

[TheColonyEagle]

This offense with Rogers is good enough to challenge in this conference. But with this defense we’ll never get a chance to see that happen.

This week we are facing another backup QB - when is the last time we faced a backup and stopped them?

 

Doesn’t need to be a backup. We haven’t stopped anyone

It’s not that they’re awful. They just know they have to cover all the field coz a big play can occur against this defense anywhere, anytime

They could have no QB and just run the wildcat all game and we wouldn't be able to stop them.

I just don't understand it, 1st drive, get burnt by their run game, 2nd drive, defense makes a good adjustment and they go 3 and out, 3rd drive, completely abandon the adjustments that just worked on the previous drive... like what are you doing Caponi???

He doesn’t really know what to do. That’s why you see the same problems week in and week out. No changes to the defense, no blitzing, same result

First and goal from the Temple 6 and they throw it 3 times ?  How do you not run it with our running game ?

I feel like our offense is going to have to score every time they touch the ball 😞

[El Paso Eagle]

A dominant first half offensively. Will our defense help at all?

[El Paso Eagle]

DBs are 10+ yards off their receivers

[El Paso Eagle]

Novel concept. Short yardage and you get under center

Is it just me or does Chandler tend to hold on to the ball too long ala Dak?

[Greenrex]

In a kind gesture from ESPNU, camera operators have been honoring Crowd-Avoidance Shots. Glad they understand our fans don't really travel well...from Ft. Worth, Dallas, the dorms.

Do you mean they didn't all get excited to see the black uniforms that the players seemingly like so much?

YES

...and to complicate things he seems to NEVER see the blitz.

That’s probably coz he’s only 6 foot tall…with shoes on. 

[3_n_out]

I really thought this OL was going to be our strength. I thought we’d be top 3-5 in the conference. Boy was I wrong. 

[akriesman]

So, will 41 points by the offense win this game ?   Temple gets the ball and if they score, we have a real ball game.

Defense must get a couple stops.  Turnovers by either side will be huge in this one.

[TripleGrad]

So, a decent chance for our first AAC win?  Or is it just rope-a-dope against the fans.  It's so HARD to be an optimist as a long-term NT fan.

Turns out my tv got on a weird setting and I wasn’t getting the full picture.  My apologies to the cameramen. 

[ntmeangreen11]

I left at halftime I have some business to take care of man the crowd just sucks, it looked bad when I was there and looks horrible on TV. That crowd shot coming in to the second half looked BAD. I doubt that if we were 4-1 it would look much better. Just brutal. 
 

On the bright side we are playing better. 

[El Paso Eagle]

Nice job Ridge

[L Ron Studdard]

Big stop from Texada.
