41-23 Halftime

HR looked sharp in Q4.

Agreed. His health, Harrell, Vaughn, is the primary concern.

Three is possible, Sac plays 2 successfully.

Any places in town showing the game? Gunrock Pub?Woodstock Pizza?

Agreed.

How would Ben Scott rank w our current QBs?

I love all our guys, but maybe we need a change.

Trying to be as optimistic as possible ... if we made our FG, and Harrell scored on the deep ball... that theoretically makes it 27-17. ... still, Sac dominated. HR looked great in limited action, and Blake Thorpe made at least one difficult, contested catch (3 total).

Should we have brought in HR earlier?

That sounds fair.

Fantastic. But you know the Bison have something like this.

Sweet!! Drops???

Feedback from alums, post-game.

1. We came out with no energy, poor body language. Sac came focused and ready.
2. We have no identity.
3. Our offense is basic with a few wrinkles.
4. Why no quick slants?
5. Why don't we ever play UG & LL together?
6. One individual claimed our Center and Left Guard can't block and cripple our running game. Above my paygrade.
7. We don't throw deep enough to keep the Defense honest, we don't test DBs
8. Universal unhappiness with our Offense and play calling
9. Why does TT rarely hand off? (Predictable.)

We all know Coach Hawkins is a good coach and turned us around, but can we get to the EWU level?

Lots of talk amongst alums and football fans postgame about our odd offense, play calling, and strategy.

Skattebo is over 10 YPC.... Strong is 15 pounds heavier (205 pounds), and can apparently run over, and around people.

A few Stats that jump out:

- shutout until late in the 4th Q (did we score against 2s?)
- Rushing Yds = 73
- Passing Ave per Attempt: Sac 8.4; Ags 5.3
- Interceptions: Sac 3; Ags 0
- Punt / Av. Return: Sac 13.5, Ags 2.5
- TOP: Sac 36 minutes; Ags 24 minutes
- Red Zone Scores: Sac 3-3; Ags 1-3
- YPC: Skattebo: 11.5; Gilliam 2.1; TrentT 2.3
- Harrell and Crawford caught one (1) pass each
- Vaughn didn't play

Are our lines that depleted?

I could be biased, but Thorpe had at least one grab when pressured heavily (3 total). We had opposite results when throwing to Granfors. Good teams locking down UG (2.5 ypc).

Why do we think it's wise to have a RB throw across the field, deep?

Great crowd. Looooooonnnng food lines, concessions understaffed, one shut down all season, TVs off. Is help that difficult to find?

1. QB situation has gone backwards
2. Do we have a Bob Foster motivator on staff?
3. Is it time to try Gunnor Faulk? Nothing to lose (He's mobile.)
4. Offense uninspired, like our band
5. Our Defense probably OK given our poor Offense.
6. Not the best Aggie team ever
7. Do we need JC transfers for our OLine?
8. Our weak schedule may have been a disservice

Go Ags!

The huge increases are housing and student fees. Shocking the numbers I've heard thrown around for the dorms, $1200 a month, $1400 a month (bed and meal plan).

A friend on campus thinks Mrak Hall (Chancellor May) cutting Physical Education was a big strategic mistake. Classes and coaches highly popular. Especially since it was part of the Referendum (contract) with students. Which is now a lawsuit.
