Miles almost throws a pick on our first offensive drive

UND takes down the Griz! 27-24

D line is getting pressure but coverage is... Questionable... On this first drive

Scott and Scott just confirmed Rex won't be playing tonight

Lions starting with their back up QB in game

I'm totally with you. I think the jerseys look much better with the names.

Plough talks about it 14:32 in this video

From the presser it sound like this is a pretty deliberate decision by Plough, but I agree on the name plates. I much prefer having them so I don't have to memorize the entire roster by number lol.

and a forced fumble

I know it's cliche, but all I want out of this game (outside of a win and no injuries) is a clean bill in terms of turnovers. 3 interceptions against Cal was disappointing to say the least.

GO AGS! BEAT THE LIONS!

Ags won last year 48-10. I think it will be closer this year, but still a relatively decisive win. Lets go with a 38-14 win.

Here's a TAMU-C podcast about the upcoming Davis game. Discussion about the game is not immediate; he covers other sports and a review of the SDSU game first.

Talks about Hastings and Larison being dangerous, but thinks that TAMU-C is better than last year and Davis is worse (he states based on what he watched during the Cal game; tough analysis to make IMHO). He says that he doesn't necessarily think the Lions will win, but that it should be a closer game. We will see.

Texas A&M Commerce Game Notes

Commerce game notes still list Rodriguez as the starting QB after he went out with an injury against SDSU. That being said, I don't know if they really update their depth chart in the notes from week to week.

Another great episode guys! It's only a matter of time before Coach Coombs gets the call from a big name program. Dude is too smart and has put too good of a product on the field to stay here forever unfortunately.

I agree with you Brock in terms of our offensive identity or lack there of. There's a lot of questions marks there and I think we'll get more answers this weekend. For instance, tempo was a hallmark aspect of Plough's offense when he was here previously yet he specifically stated that they played slow to limit Cal's time with the ball. Are we going to hit the Lions with some high tempo on Saturday and catch them off guard?

Apparently Idaho's starting QB had to have surgery for a broken collarbone and is expected to be out "several weeks" due to reports. That could have huge implications for their season. We'll see how they do against a bottom of the barrel FBS team with a backup QB.

I think that they will be better than last season and they played a solid defensive first half, but SDSU was not predicted to be the creme de la creme of the Mountain West this season. The Aggies SHOULD win comfortably if the offense can play cleanly, but that has now been a challenge for a season plus for our guys.

Interesting that taking the name plates off of the jerseys looks like it's going to be a permanent change. I understand the 'honoring the past' take Plough has on it, but I have to be honest and say that I much prefer having the name plates present.

Game notes are already up. I don't see any real changes in the depth chart.

Game Notes

At least like a regional argument could be made, although I'd be embarrassed if the Ags scheduled them. Most FCS match ups stay fairly regional. Not sure how Maine and MSU came together.

Yeah looking at the stat lines, I'm not sure their rationale for thinking Eck should get it over Porter. Bias is a helluva drug.
