How Did We Score 62 Against Navy Last Year ?

I thought that Navy game on Nov. 10th of last year was the kick start to Dodge Ball, I thought that game was our coming out party and thought our offense would resemble that offense this year. So what has happened ? How come we cant move the ball, cant seem to get any big plays or sustain any drives? So frustrating.

A few positives from tonight, I thought besides the first drive that our defense played well and played tough. Maybe some young guys are starting to figure it out. I feel a lot better leaving Fouts tonight then I have had all season. Right now Troy is so much more athletic than us. Their defense was really good I thought. But it was good to see us out there clawing and scratching and hitting.

I can't say i feel the same about this.

At least we only gave up 25 at halftime instead of 42. I know it is bad to say that we looked better even though we gave up 45 points but if our offense could keep the ball more than 1 minute at a time then our defense could actually look better. Our first drive tonight on offense we had the ball for 21 seconds. Thats ridiculous, we just gave up a TD drive and then we go out there and only have the ball for 21 seconds.

I like Vizza and so far have wanted to keep him in there to fight through this so he can get better for next season, but he just makes some horrible decisions out there and throws some bad passes at the worst times. Maybe it's time to give Tune or someone else a start just to see what happens.

I totally agree about Vizza. Is going through a sophmore slump or what ? We sat right by where the Mean Green come out of the tunnel in the end zone bleachers so were behind the play and could see everything and Vizza missed some wide open guys and they werent difficult throws. I dont know why we dont put Tune or Meager in there, its not like it would hurt anything.

I love Vizza... and some mistakes i blame on having no time to do things. But, he did make some ill-advised decisions. there were times when i thought he should have just tucked the ball in and ran and he didn't. He could have easily had 2 more int's on the night.

Unfortunately, the WR's had a lot of drops too.

      A plea to our "football-only" fans

      Are you pleading for the student body to show up or alumni? A 6:30 game on a Wednesday is a B for someone that doesn’t live in close proximity. I live in Allen and could never consider that drive. We go to Americans hockey games as they are in our back yard. They aren’t very good but more of a deterrent for us to go to more, is no one is there….on a Tuesday night. If there stands were filled, it would feel more legit and we’d probably go more, even if the quality of play wasn’t there. I suspect the student body wants that same ‘experience’. When I was there so many years ago, we wanted to be where the action was, even if it was dash riprocks. So I see a bit of chicken and egg here. People don’t go because people don’t go. If people would go, more people would go. football games are so much easier to plan for. 1 game a week, generally on a Saturday. You can make a day/event out of it. Weekly, more frequent basketball games, on weeknights, don’t offer the same advantages. All that said, I applaud your plea and hope that the tides change. Would love to hear that the Pit is packed routinely.

      According to Burton, and I'm sure it's the same with some men's teams, some of the intra-TX teams that you'd think would bring more fans will only come play us if we give them a check. I think investing more in our schedule would be worth it for the larger crowds (plus extra tickets/concessions sold). Stop scheduling Mississippi Valley State. Get a UTA, Texas State, SHSU, LA Tech, UTEP, or SFA in here. Renewing rivalries with WKU and MTSU would also be fun. Agreed, I feel like there was more in the concourse a few seasons ago? But now it is mostly bare and dead. I would like to see somewhere on the concourse a spirit shop you walk through, like the Hangar at the AAC in Dallas. Perhaps it could be the on-campus NIL Store to provide an easy opportunity for our athletes to make more NIL earnings.
