My nomination for Quote of the Year.

BlueGoldAg: "The writing was on the wall when we were lucky to beat San Diego and the exclamation point was added when we didn't show up to play against Montana."

At that point Hawkins or somebody has to ring the siren. Maybe I'm wrong or unorthodox, but I would have found a way to get Rodriquez athleticism in as a RB, QB, somewhere. Was it Weber who brought in a 3rd string QB for a quick running play?

A high scoring offense repeatedly scoring under 20 with a top QB is a puzzle that needs an answer.

Does anyone here have any idea of the QB pecking order or standouts?

"This team lacks something. It's hard to figure out what, but they don't have it." Moxie?

Our Defense looked solid, can't blame them for 3-and-outs on offense. Special teams appeared A+.

Youth & injuries play a big role. Losing our top 2 playmaking LBs was a blow, and they adjusted. Losing two top WRs seemed to stunt our offense, along with losing our downhill RB (ribs I believe). No FB on the roster, and new RBs reportedly wiped out by injuries.

The downfield OL hold? A freshman. Probably not a mistake he'll make as an upperclassman. The negated interception? Ugh.

[Edit] You have a quick trigger finger on proven coaches. I would emphasize the need for a pass rush, and see if we could steal a JC pass rush threat. Play calling needs work, that again circles back to young inexperienced players.

Go Ags!

I agree, announcers complimented our defense several times.

We were shutout in the 2nd half. Only 3 receivers caught balls, 2 with more than 1 catch. No Harrell today. Should Vaughn have caught that key pass? Huge. Offensive line looked solid. Maier helped bring our program back, but I believe lack of mobility and arm strength didn't help. We should be deep next year at WR.

You can't win in the Big Sky scoring under 20 a game no matter how strong your defense.

Yes.

We don't like to run JM.

Big game for Perryman ... he was the special teams player who flipped the ball back on the goal line.

Frazier interception legit!

WHY DIDN'T WE CHALLENGE IT!!!??? Huge play.

Their QB very mobile.

Announcer ... "Davis predictable ... Gilliam run on 1st down, pass to Vaughn on 2nd down ..."

JM 1 of 5.

How much are tickets?

No Colby Wadman?

Do we also put Parks and Gilliam on the next decade team?

Manzanares, a walk on ... and he missed a number of games w / injury.

I wouldn't put a player just to fill a position ... Maier, Doss, Moe are locks.

All solid or great football players. But ...

We picked 2 sophomores (Gilliam and Parks). Is Parks that good? Has Gilliam really superseded a RB who kept us out of last place, Gabe Manzanares?

I believe Manzanares had more yards (over 1300 as a junior), far more yards per game, and helped us win 2 Causeway Classics.

I loved Turay, but don't recall him being critical. Wasn't there a stud DB / LB ... Zach Jones. And how about Nick King.

Add Pint.

Bob Dunning has written about the rough start in 1981, including a schalacking, and a vigorous post-game discussion between Sochor and O'Brien on the field ... and then we won 17 or 18 straight?

70s Aggies - Did Moroski start 2 or 3 years?

Did O'Brien start in 1980 (soph year)? Did Mo start as a Sophomore?

We get 2 stud LBs back, and we've already signed 2 stud recruits on the D Line and a stud LB. Cade Peacock redshirted, but we graduate 5 on the DL.

DL Noa Masui *** 6'6 250 St John Bosco High School; DL Princeton Toki 5'11 330 Salesian High School; and LB Teddye Buchanan*** look like great adds.

We don't know what we have with our other 2-3-4 RBs that got hit with injuries .... Facey is a little fireplug, does he have college speed?

We already have a KILLER recruiting class.

The CV running back. OK, no surprise.

27-22, 1:56 left in the first half. Ironically 6'11" Neufeld has 10 points.
