Impressive first half.

 

[megablue]

That Oline is impressive.

1000000%^^^^

 

[ChicagoCat90]

Do you all remember those 4 straight runs up the middle vs Texas? I think we might be safe from those calls this year.

 

[Pensacola_Cat_Fan]

Uh oh, last 2 minutes of the first half. You know what that means. Oh wait...

LFG!!

Where’s the people who said, “we can’t fire stoops, no good coach will want the job”

My gawd we are playing a grade school team, get a grip.

 

[Henogee1975]

Scoring too much

It's not that we are great, it's that a Stoops coached team would be in a struggle. And there would be a 100% chance of a collapse in the last couple of minutes of the half.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Want to see more pressure upfront.

You were cuddling your Stoopsy bear this morning, weren't you?

 

[RunninRichie]

Your usual swipe. You're like a fish out of water. You need failure in your gills !

How is that a swipe, fat moron?

 

[Pensacola_Cat_Fan]

Want to see more pressure upfront.

I think we're trying to hold the line so that the QB doesn't run by us.

 

[megablue]

I know it is not a huge thing, but 4 straight PAT conversions by the back-up kicker is nice to see.

 

[RunninRichie]

You were cuddling your Stoopsy bear this morning, weren't you?

Don't forget Beatle bum and Paul Calhoun also.

 

[RunninRichie]

Mark Stoops would have this team up 14-3 with a last second drive by Youngstown state to make it 14-10. Get real, fanboy.

 

[MidseasonTweak]

I think we're trying to hold the line so that the QB doesn't run by us.

Makes sense in that case

Texas coach felt so bad for Stoops he gave him a job. Also makes you realize how close Stoops was for the last decade. He just never could get over that hump.

 

[Beatle Bum]

That would have been a TD had this been a better team. Not good.

 

[Pensacola_Cat_Fan]

Makes sense in that case

Total guess on my part.

 

[entropy13]

YSU has moved the ball too well their last 3 drives, me no rikey.

 

[Beatle Bum]

Now they are in scoring position.

 

[OldScratchBlues]

Still concerned a bit about our D. Granted first game but this won't work on the SEC. Bama qb is really quick

 

[TheKentuckyKid]

Looks like we still have issues in the last 2 minutes of the half.

 

[FilsonCat]

My gawd we are playing a grade school team, get a grip.

I don't think so. That QB would be running wild against a Stoops team. He's got some wheels.

 

[Pensacola_Cat_Fan]

Remember our top 2 corners are not playing. I think the lack of pressure on the QB is the most concerning. Giving up 7 in a half isn't the end of the world though.

 

[RunninRichie]

Pass rush was always a concern for the defense.

 

[Anon668007]

I don’t care who we are playing, I’m excited about this offense.

 

[Pensacola_Cat_Fan]

Pass rush was always a concern for the defense.

We may have to outscore some teams. We haven't been able to do that in the last 13 years.

 

[entropy13]

Looks like we still have issues in the last 2 minutes of the half.

I mean, no boneheaded coaching eff ups thus far, and we did score just under 2 minutes. But yeah, don't like to see an FCS team, even a good one, drive on us in a sustained manner.

 

[OldScratchBlues]

Remember our top 2 corners are not playing. I think the lack of pressure on the QB is the most concerning. Giving up 7 in a half isn't the end of the world though.

Lack of pressure is concerning. If we don't get pressure on bama QB, that won't be good at all. And we give up a TD last two minutes. Good grief.

 

[entropy13]

Well, s-h-i-t.

 

[megablue]

It seems like ALL the bigger schools are easily taking care of their "easy" games ... I guess NIL and the portal have allowed them to stockpile PROVEN talent.

 

[DelkBowl]

D def needs some work

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Hopefully that resets the defense

We’re pretty vanilla on defense right now, we’ll see Bateman put a lot of more pressure on bama’s freshman QB next week imo.

 

[Pensacola_Cat_Fan]

Anybody know if our two corners are supposed to play next week?

 

[darkshadesofblue]

Way too easy

 

[MidseasonTweak]

Not a bad half against a team with the best QB in the FCS by a country mile.

 

[Pensacola_Cat_Fan]

I wish we didn't have to, but I agree.

 

[*Fox2Monk*]

Hate giving up a score late like that. At least Stein has gonads to go for it and we threw the ball to a TE. That’s a win.
