Bob Dunning: "Nobody’s talking about post-season awards in October*, but if Aggie freshman quarterback Caden Pinnick keeps putting up gaudy numbers he will no doubt be a finalist for the Jerry Rice Award given to the top FCS freshman in the country."

* except for Dunning and Marsh

FTR, Pinnick is on the baseball roster and played the piano in his youth (including small recitals).

Scary QB Eric Barriere graduated.

The stats don't count, and the game doesn't count. "No Contest".

A redshirt year would be great for them, us, and NFL / CFL hopes.

Psyk 100% committed here, wow.

About 6:00-6:30 - CP comments

About 13:00 - Coach Plough discusses the Appeal they'll file w NCAA regarding the Connor twins eligibility; apparently the NCAA is counting the Mercer game

Time to get healthy, players get some rest and caught up on studies, and recruiting trips?

First watertower TD.

Scott Marsh is mentioning Caden Pinnick as a candidate for the Walter Payton Award / offensive player of the year.

- 8 of 11 on 3rd down
- 5 sacks
- Psyk had 1.5 sacks
- Frosh receiver Hennessy had a reception

Sac up 14 - 3 on Weber.

Tarleton State in a scrap w Utah Tech 20-16.

Rhode Island wins, as do most other top teams.

Too early, Montana State, Idaho, Sac and playoffs. He has RBs, WRs, and coaches here, and possibly the ability to play baseball.

He's human, we still have bigger opponents to face. The lack of TOs is refreshing.

Time for QB #2??? Protect CP.

CP 23-26, 4 TDs, 0 picks, 328 yards, insane 245 QB Rating.

Pinnick 19-22, 289, 3 TDs, 0 picks, 86% Completion %, and QB Rating of 241.7.

CP will move up the national FCS charts in several categories.

Great sideline pass to Dobbins, another pinpoint throw.

CP right now has an Elite QB rating around 228 for this game. 14-17, 2 TDs, 0 picks.

Looked like a handoff to me. Great call.

Next man up: Stanley and Sievers, 5 tackles each. Psyk 1.5 sacks.

CP with another perfect throw TD to Gbatu.
