Additional thoughts: While TM does not have as quick a release as JT (beyond debate in my mind) he has been very accurate overall and seen the field very well. The only disappointing throw I can remember was the last over throw to Searcy late in regulation against the Vowels. Skill position...

allowed on defense. 2017 YTD 9/21 (38%), 2016 for the season (49%) I know it is still early, but if we are looking for glimmers of hope in regards to our defense, this is an important stat. Last year, we had a terrible time getting teams off the field. 11% improvement is a significant number...

Just to add a little clarity after looking at the box score for the first time: 7 Kickoff attempts, 4 Touchbacks, ave net gain on KO 45.3 yards (19.7 yard line) includes the penalty.

I fully agree about the attitude. While I didn't sense that he put his team on his back like Monday, he was still a leader out there and found a way to get it done. It is unrealistic to expect a guy to run crazy every week. It is really nice to know the kid can make throws when he needs to.

It would be interesting to see what the actual overall percentage of FGs made in P5 from each of the ranges possible. I would expect misses to happen a little more frequently than you have characterized. If forced to guess, I would say 75% of 35 yard FG attempts get converted at the P5 level...

C'mon 'Cuse, D+? Glad you weren't my prof. If you get the touchback, whether wind aided or not, that is the best you can do for that kick. If you kick it 3 rows deep into the stands it still comes out to the same yard line. The kick out of bounds and the missed extra point blemishes lower the...

That early play where he just stood there and watched the fumble rolling around on the ground sent me into orbit. You can say he thought it was an incomplete pass, whatever. That will carry no weight with me. That was simply a momentary lack of urgency and hustle. Dive on that thing first and...

After week 2, this is where we stand: VS the Big 10: SEC 0-1, ACC 2-2 VS the Pac 12: SEC 0-1, ACC 0-1 VS the BIG 12: SEC 0-1, ACC 1-0 VS non Power 5: SEC 9-0, ACC 3-1 VS FCS: SEC 9-0, ACC 8-0 Head to Head: SEC 3 wins ACC 1 win All totaled the SEC is 3-4 vs Power 5 teams and the ACC is 4-6. It...

Question: does CTR only call LB blitzes when his son is in the game, or is TDR just that much better at blitzing? In either case, great job TDR! What did he play? three snaps? 2.0 sacks!

By any measure, this was a solid game for the defense. Without their strong performance, this very well could have been a loss. 5 sacks, 3 TOs, less than 200 yards, and a bunch of 3 and outs is a good result. If any of you feel better grouping Jax St in with the rest of FCS in your mind, in...

This was my biggest pleasant surprise. I was really impressed by his ability to get the extra two in the trash. That was not JT's biggest strong suit. As I have watched a little more tape, it seemed he was a bit too enamored with the cut back. I think he may have lost yards a few times allowing...

Btw, that last kick was missing left (hook) whether it made it past the LOS or not. Whatever, football is a team game. There is tons of blame to go around. As I said, there was about a hundred paths to victory at the start of Q4 and only one to defeat. There was a confluence of events that lost...

It is pretty obvious from watching this interview, and many others with Shamire, that he is a cut above most NFL bound players in terms of intellectual capacity and character. He will crush the "wonderlich" sp? test and make his competitors look like dumb.......(people) in comparison. Brains and...

Well, they gave us the first yard, lining up at least 4ft off the LOS. I don't think that helped them much as it just gave our guys a full step to gather speed before ramming them. I understand the thought behind it, but I don't think they would prepare that way again given the results. With all...

IMHO, for the most part, the refs let the kids play. They didn't have a huge impact on the game.

There is no rule that says, as a defender, you have to let a receiver run through you to get to the ball. The ball landed to the far side of the defender. Plus he got his head around. Was there illegal contact? Yes, but it was mild. There is some hand fighting that happens every play. I support...

I agree in that it is the first game for both teams. There are only so many conclusions one can draw. We once crushed UVA 56-0. It doesn't make you that much better than them. We can say all we want about where UT will end up, but 600 yards is 600 yards. It is pretty hard to do that against...

Obviously there has been a lot of really good commentary about Monday's game. Here are a few other random thoughts after seeing the game live and a once through of the replay at live speed: The whole night had a really weird feel for me, right from the beginning. I had a nice dinner downtown...
