Blue & Gold

Our competition for Anderson's services are New Mexico State, Cleveland State, and Lamar. I'm a proponent of the Oxford Comma.

I thought both Boogie & Dollard looked legit. Especially for how young the OL & QB are I thought the O played well.

Jordyn Riley made SportsCenter ?

Uh oh. I noticed he tweaked what appeared to be his knee on a play. But I didn't notice him leaving the game. I noticed R-Fr. Shawn Naim getting quite a few reps in the 2nd half but thought it was because the coaches though the game was out of reach.

I just can't believe we couldn't stop the run at all. Nothing else will matter or fall into place if we can't stop the run on D. We did enough on offense to win the game (though we did throw a pick-6). But with our complete inability to stop the run last night we could've had Trevor Lawrence and Clemson's offense and we still would have lost. Simply gotta sell out to stop it & make them beat you passing the ball.

My observations. The bad: 1. Cant stop the run on D. If you can't stop the run, does anything else matter? 2. No disruption behind the LOS. Love Bubba and Reggie, but their lack of size is an issue. More blitzing? We need to sell out to stop the run. After that we can worry about the DB's. 3. Riley getting beat deep again. Happens a lot. Just keep your man in front of you and make them dink&dunk down the field if necessary. 4. Punting is still an issue. This should not be the case for a D1 team. 5. Gibson threw a few head-scratcher passes. 6. OL is too young to win with this year. 7. After 13 games our coaching staff has yet to make an impactful halftime adjustment. It may be that we're simply out-manned on the field. Idk. But no way our D should be giving up 58. Announcer said WMU's OL were all 5th year seniors, so maybe WMU will show that they do indeed have an elite OL. We'll see. The good: 1. Offense looks better overall. Quite better, IMHO. A bad play last night was a 1-2 yard gain, as where a bad play last year (and there were a ton) was a 5-yard TFL in the backfield. 2. Gibson looks good. We can win with Gibson. He'll get better as he's still only a R-Fr. Unless Kato's taken a major leap, I'm thinking his days as starter are over. 3. Our new RB's - Dollard & Boogie - are much better than we had last season. Major improvement. (Gest must have COVID-19.) 4. Mathison is a primetime WR. 5. Our OL is going to be amazing... in another 1-2 years. Lol. They performed better last night than last year's OL. I'm anxious to watch them develop.

Well. If we can’t stop the run... Gonna be another rough season. Gotta sell out on the run.

Boogie’s awedome

A.J. Watts took a bad angle on that. He’s one of our best players & hasnt has his name called yet tonight.

Man, is it only 8:00?! It feels like it's midnight. Lol

Man, I missed this. Yeah, we're losing (again), but I'm having fun ? I hope we can make a stop or two this second half & still show the ability to consistently move the ball on O. Btw, not to jinx the kicker, but we've hit both our field goal attempts!. Knock on wood. ?

Thank you. LT: Gray (R-Fr.) LG: Beckman (R-Fr.) C : Petersen (Senior) RG: Daniels (R-Fr.) RT: Murphy (R-Fr) And we should remember that none of them use/lose a year of eligibility this season.

Yeppers.

True. Lol. But I think he looks good, period.

I think this is our starting OL: LT: Gray LG: Beckman C : Petersen RG: Daniels RT: Muldowney

3 downs to go deep.

Dollard is better than any RB we had last year.

Darn it. Riley got beat deep again. He got beat deep a lot last year.

1st & 20 now. Let's go D!!!

Btw, Reggie Corner Jr. in at LB!

Our front 7 aren't getting any penetration into the backfield.

We can't stop the run. No good. Gonna wear down.

Let's hold em', D. I'll gladly take down by only 10 at the half. Offense is moving the ball consistently. No 3-and-outs.

Gibson is looking efficient. Compared with the last two seasons... I'm happy right now.
