Don't you know La Tech won 9 games last year though! That schedule has been killer.

I think you guys had more favorable matchups against us the last 2 years with your power running game and our bad run defense.

This is not the best matchup for you guys on offense vs our defense at this time of the year. In a few more weeks you guys may end up with a pretty powerful running game but you don't seem to be there at this time. I think we ought to be able to hold you guys to around 24 points. You guys are going to score some points but not control the clock like the last few years..

If we bog down and kick a bunch of field goals then we lose. Knight needs to be at least as accurate as he was vs Auburn and our receivers cannot drop TD passes... we dropped 2 vs Auburn and ended up with FGs. Can't do this against you guys. Our offense vs Hog defense is where this game is going to be won... IMO.

You clearly haven't watched any of our games this year

The only decent team you've played put up 469 yards of offense, and you gave up 400 to Auburn (236 on the ground), a team that managed 262 against Clemson. But congrats on padding your stats against Prarie View

3 games into the season with a back that has never started a game, 3 new OL, and a new QB.

I'm shocked we aren't leading NCAA in all rushing categories.

Shocked.

Um your D line is crap. Tcu tossed them around and had 4 rushing TDs. Your linebackers suck as well

2 of those drives had dropped passes in the endzone. Reynolds has a perfectly thrown ball go through his hands. He normally catches everything. Uncontested and open.

RSJ had a ball go through both of his big hands... ball was a little high but VERV VERY catchable. He was open also. Went through both hands.

That's 2 TDs that Auburn didn't stop us on. We clearly stopped ourself. Catch those 2 and the game is a blowout. We end up with 4 TDs and 3 FGs rather than 2 TDs and 5 FGs. Hopefully we don't drop TD passes like I said.

No shite, that is fascinating. We've been telling people for years we aren't a power running team and you dumbasses keep trying to say that is what we do.

Its like asking a soccer team why they don't shoot more three pointers. Even the people on this board should be smart enough to figure out, after seeing it for four years, we are a ball control offense that uses the threat of the run to set up the play action pass.

What is depressing about this, and it really is sad, is that an Aggie makes this mistake, while two years ago a Longhorn fan correctly broke down our scheme and what we hang our hat on. I guess y'all aren't up to their level quite yet.
