Official Mr. Jones prediction thread

Unread post by bigCasu » Wed Sep 04, 2013 7:49 pm

Last week was not what anyone expected. Many could accept a loss in the opening game, as so many indicators in the past could have pointed out. Appalachian was winless to the west of the Mississippi River, playing a tough opponent, at a tougher venue. The most surprising aspect of the game that everyone wants to forget is the poor performance of the offense, especially one that had all the makings of being exceptional. What we feared the most was the health of the starting quarterback, Jamal Londry-Jackson. We predicted that Londry-Jackson would not be healthy once the season started. Whether or not he was 100% recovered from knee surgery was also speculated. Seems we nailed that one, as Londry-Jackson suffered a pinched nerve that caused numbness in the left arm for a brief period during the game, which caused him to miss over a quarter of action. Londry-Jackson carried the ball six times in the game, a far cry from his 16 carries against the Griz a year ago. We called for eight carries, and even that seemed to be high. We also wanted to see Londry-Jackson showcase his passing ability, which is any area he also struggled. The total yardage (89) and yards per attempt (4.2) were easily the worst of his career. Only at Western Carolina last year has Londry-Jackson thrown for fewer yards in a game he started. Coincidentally, Londry-Jackson was also injured in that game.

I think A&T is much improved from previous years, and I remember us having some problems the last time we played a MEAC Team in the playoffs. I wonder what we learned from last week and how much improvement we can make. I think we cover the spread:

Longrifles 24
Farmers 10

I'm always nervous to make predictions, but after last week (and no postseason), why not?

One of the things I liked last week was the tenacious D (until the 4th)...

Guns Come Out: 45
A.N.T. Dyno-mite! 6 (No TD...)
One game does not a postseason make.
