Week 8: Big Sky yes, what was really funny was a group in front of me wanting poly to run it up the gut. That wasnt working, but frankly after the first quarter our D had their number. On kick returns, their deep guy called a fair catch nearly every time, Really, you are down big time, why not try and be a hero and take it to the house? I heard the booing also. I think the officials were feeling sorry for poly. There was one holding incident where our rushers hand was being pulled back as he rushed the QB. There was a ref right there. Then the non call on the south end zone when Doss had two guys on him in the end zone and they stripped his hand down before the ball arrived.
Aside from an overall great performance by the Aggies in general, i was pleased by some improvements. Our punting game was much better. Im sure they must have been working on that. And while Gillian had a great game, Tehran Thomas is a beast. He was carrying 3 or 4 tacklers several yards. While Gillian is the patient one looking for his seam, Thomas makes his own seams and hits the line with authority. This was a great game for Tehran Thomas. I got to meet some of his family members at the ISU game. Real nice folks. I look forward to seeing him get more carries.
