i have sort of a sinking feeling about this game....i think we are talented enough to win a lot of games this year...talented enough to win this one....but i swear the win over lindenwood felt like a loss...yes i know we had 4 TO's and tons of dropped passes...but we just didn't look good. Sure hop...

Southern Miss has a 30-year-old freshman punter from Australia, the oldest-known player in FBS.

Oldest known? Have we not explored the depth of college football ages yet?

I feel like we have the speed to mitigate the effectiveness of the swing pass. More than mitigate, blow it up. Intercept, force fumbles and incompletions. This is why you play a 4-2-5, to face offenses like Southern Miss is running. D-Tackles are going to have to anchor down to let linebackers and ...

The next two games will tell us a lot about what App's got this year. I figure - if we lose to So. Miss and Boise, we've got a full rebuild going on, and we have to trust the process and hope for bowl eligibility. - if we split So. Miss and Boise, win either one, we've got a good team that could ma...

SMiss has had a very different schedule compared to App. MissSt is a quality team and JSU won the HBCU title last with size and speed. Arguably they've played better teams and come away looking OK. Its hard to say we've had anything but a cupcake schedule and performed as we should have. This will ...

Has anyone figured out why the hell we didn’t stop the play to look at the clear as day fumble we recovered? Was this the one where their guy took it back from us? Yes, and App clearly recovered that fumble. He had possession, on the ground. I also thought their Hail Mary touchdown hit the ground. ...

The drops and fumbles are very concerning. But I’m becoming concerned with our QBs timing, the throws continue to be half a second slow as he goes through his reads. Our secondary will get exploited by above average QBs. What reads? He locks on 1st option, half the time 3rd option is wide open on o...

Stroman’s issues are not the coaching staff’s fault. He’s been that way his whole career. It is an opportunity for the staff to improve him but I am doubtful because the issues go beyond the game. I am not saying this to be an apologist, but the coaches put the players into position to succeed for ...

I know it's early but I'm starting to worry about Coach. The players seem more interested in seeking the limelight then they are in playing good fundamental football. Way too many personal foul's, not protecting the ball, and trying to thread the football where it doesn't belong. They're playing fo...

Was at the game, if it could go wrong it did. We scored so easily we lost our edge and could never get momentum back due to turnovers and penalties. Should have beat thus team by 40, didn’t, receivers need to catch the ball There were 7 drops that I counted, and I think I include the bad ball by Sw...

I’m fascinated by some of the takes in this thread. I’m not happy about the game, but we DID win! Do yall watch other football? You know the other team practices and schemes and everything, right? You know teams usually take a season to get on track with a new coaching staff, right? I mean, Nick Sa...

That was bad. But we lose that game last year in my opinion.

That was App’s closest FCS win since 2013.

I bet on this game. Sorry guys. I shouldn’t have. CFP shot is gone even if you go 13-0 now. Not that it’s likely, but that’s a terrible take. If we go 13-0, we will have wins over Boise, Oregon St. and JMU. That’ll be good enough. Oregon State? Boise who lost by 24 to USF? JMU who just lost Louisvi...

Some days you're the bug and some days you're the windshield. Today we were the bug yet still won.

Great. Does that matter? I really hope this was some more of that “NFL vanilla preseason” like play calling on offense. If it wasn’t, Southern Miss is going to be bad.

USM is going to be bad, I think. 13-3 or something crazy.

I feel like we’re just squashing grapes like Barnes on kick return. This is identical to what we watched with Clark for the last 5 years. Identical. You’re just full of bad takes today. This is vastly different than the Clark years. For one, they’ve actually made adjustments in the second half by r...

Onside... right. Really? Yeah... :::hysterical laughter::: sure. I said that losing to Charlotte would result in a big hole for DL to dig himself out of. This game, no matter if he wins, dug a huge hole. Outgaining them on the ground 181 to -1 and you’re up by seven. Seven drops, 8 penalties, 5 tur...

Looking forward to Kohl and some of the 2’s/3’s getting meaningful reps this Saturday. The throw to Grier against Charlotte was a ball I’ve never seen an App QB make. That was an NFL like throw solely due to his height. He could basically throw it flat out because of height. That was interesting to...
