I think there are giving others a chance, and I get the feeling after listening to Hawk in the press conference that maybe he feels Chuckwudove isn’t patient enough (in letting blocking set up). He said he goes 100 mph all the time. Just a guess.

yes.

Think I saw him on the sideline but not sure.

Tattersall has some speed.

And having a game.

I think I would do a bunch more running - then some passing after setting that up with the run game.

The Ags offense normally uses the back as a check down or even intentional receiver so there is no back available to pick up a rusher on a pass play.

Agreed.

Lloyd like Crump still out. And Kraft. It just seems like there is no comfortable QB - WR combo for the Ags. I would start going to Gale. Is is just me or do the receivers not get much separation?

I like Tompkins taking the ball quickly downfield and not as much juking.

Cal Poly defense is atrocious. Need to use this game as a confidence booster for offense.

I think if I were Hawkins, I would say fair catch all kickoffs unless your last name is Larison.


Getting the ball for certain on the 25 is not bad.

I think just a google search. Had to poke around. It wasn’t on the Aggie YouTube channel.

Well wins there certainly get you to the playoffs most likely. And if they win 2 of those 3 and don’t make the playoffs it would likely mean that they lost to someone they should have beat.

Ags did beat both Weber and Montana last time they played them on the road. Sac is easily the best team of those three - Weber got shutout at home 40-0 and Montana has little offense. If you want some entertainment- search YouTube for Montana football press conference. Bobby Hauck is a real jerk. Can’t imagine being in the press there. And there’s got to be a lot of negative vibes felt by the players with a guy like that.

I don’t think anyone beats Montana State, unless Chambers gets hurt.

In the press conference this week, Hawk said “a lot of therapy” when asked about Lan Larison’s condition/status. I would guess this means he will not need surgery, but I would also interpret that to mean he is out for quite some time if not the season. Just hope for Lan’s sake he was not injured too badly.

Well, trying to look at the positive side of things - this is the first time the Ags should have won an EWU game. Can’t remember when they have held EWU to as few yards and points. There were even comments on the EWU board that Davis should have won. And EWU wasn’t exactly chopped liver. The defense has done some good things this year.

Last year the Ags started 1-4, including a game they blew at home versus Weber. While there is hope of turning things around after this tough loss, it will be hard to overcome the loss of Larison. Personally I would be thrilled if they made the playoffs - even if they didn’t win one playoff game. Montana and Weber are down this year so I think there is a better likelihood of sneaking in. Bottom line is the way overused mantra of “one game at a time”.

If Larison is out for the year, the Ags are in a world of hurt. I really respect Larison - he palpably has tried to put the team on his back - seems like he wants to win more than anyone else. I wish him well whatever the prognosis.

We just don’t have any depth at running back - and no second “big/string guy - most seem small. And as much as I like Tompkins - I don’t think he should be the main wide receiver option and I don’t know that he would thrive at running back either. He does a lot of dancing, but ultimately it’s about vertical movement. Larison is a master at that - wait for the hole then explode vertically. I think more touches for tomokins has resulted in fewer for Hutton and I think Hutton is better at going downfield.

I like splitting out Gale wide. He is a big body and still pretty fast despite putting on weight. I fully expected Babb to be a go to after what I saw at Portland State in 2019. He is an athlete but has mysteriously gotten buried on the depth chart.

ball was kicked at a low trajectory - not sure it would not have been blocked if kicked higher - but definitely low.

Perez looks all braced up on the sidelines too. Season is not looking good.

I feel sorry for Larison. That guy was trying to carry the whole offense on his back all year.
