Interesting considering Coach Tucker was highly successful, and Coach Foster is a legend. We played a lot of young players. We are either deep at LB, or have a lot of equal pieces.

Very positive on many aspects, an overall successful year. Passing game an A-, passing game fan friendly, gameday experience a B+/ A-, and many other positives.

Hawk landed a top-5 QB in record time, Gould and staff didn't land / develop one. Awesome receivers also added. I don't understand why a RB who gains 48 yards in 3 carries at NAU doesn't play in 2 subsequent games. I'd love to see the replay on that 90 yard run, at 230 pounds.

Have no insight on why our defense is in the bottom fifth of the league. Our local paper decided to run an article on the equipment manager during Causeway Classic week over Robert Tucker (DC), special teams, etc. Will Dunning or BG write an article with insight?

So Doss and about 12 QBs.

We sniffed 7!

Why is our defense so challenged?

How about if we didn't commit several TOs in the championship game?

What adjustments did we make to become defensive beasts in 2nd half? I know one was stopping the QB keeper for 20.

Huh?

Rushing Yards vs Sac

Tehran+ 216 16.6 APC
Tehran 126 -- 10.1 APC
Modise 89 ---- 9.9 APC
Williams 86 -- 6.6 APC

+ includes 90 yard run

If not for the illegal block, we might have seen the best rushing performace in one half by Thomas. 215 yards in one half.

When was the bad spot? Pluto was on and out for me.

FYI, game will supposedly be replayed in the Sac area on TV.

Is it possible the coaching staff starts out with a conservative game plan? NAU was 90% run in the first quarter.

Glad to see they finally played TT! Maybe a few more studs are redshirting.

Press release, and stats.

Is there a decent reason why we didn't go to Doss on the 1st half?

Great to see him used on the sweep.

Maybe a cold beer in hand?

Proud that we battled.

Can't get this out of my head. We give TThomas more PT 2nd half of the season, we win vs EWU, and Sac State. Progress! #Agscension

San Diego was ahead of us for a while, not quite sure why. I heard their chancellor focused on getting 10 or 12 marquee researchers... not sure if that is true.

How did u put football on the big screen? Do you live in the Sac area?

Thomas was running over people at NAU in 2nd half, he seemed to stumble at times... but always forward and gaining yards!! Why didn't our staff see this in practice? Loyalty to a local player, 5th or 6th year senior? With that huge run he would have had 220 yards rushing - in one half!!!!! (He didn't play 1st half, right?)

OLine appeared to play solid. Firooz at LG, not sure when we made that change.

JW 3 TDs.

TThomas 125 yards rushing, 10+ yards per carry. Long of 26 yards. Most / all? in 2nd half.

Doss 173 yds receiving, 13 catches, most in 2nd half. (Why didn't we go to him earlier?) Doss also 45 yard sweep TD.

Hope for future: at least 25 big contributors tonight are true freshmen, RF, or Sophomores.

Without that illegal block does Thomas still make the play?

Points taken. May I reply?

1. We went from slow mo, boring offense, to quick paced, throwing offense, with a brand new QB, and full staff!! Maier wasn't even here in the spring.

Point 2. We are young. Lots of Sophs on defense, and frosh, lots of sophs on offense, too. I count at least 25 true freshmen, RF, or Sophs who get a LOT of PT. And at least 4-5 of those are JC transfers.

We battled. EWU and Sac were down to the last minute. Why we didn't play TThomas earlier is beyond me, against Cal Poly, against SUU, and 1st half tonight. Wasn't his success a contributing factor in the O moving the chains?

Go Ags!

What was the penalty? Pluto in and out for me.

What penalty negated TThomas' huge run?? I've been saying he needs carries for weeks... when Pluto worked for me, he had some great runs!
