UAPB Game Thread
- Thread starter TU 1978
- Start date
I was afraid there for a bit that Spurrier wasn't going to let him throw and it would be Chad President part 2
The point of that post is that if we kept Brin, then Braxton would have been sayonara. Had nothing to do with Cardell. He's great.
Don’t think I want to write off Braxton for two bad throws against Arkansas Pine-Bluff when I have seen a whole game of him killing Houston
I think he's a little in the dog house on that fumble on the return. Hopefully we'll see him second half.
Got in just as many were melting. It is the first game of the season. We made mistakes but corrected them. Up 28-7. 2 Ints and one fumble and only gave up 7. We have 178 passing (Williams 9 of 9) and 128 rushing with Ford averaging 6.3 per carry and Jackson 9.0. Hopefully I will see some of the third before last flight home. Go TU!
I agree 100%. He’s still the starter. Cardell beating up on UAPB shouldn’t change that.
That said, I’d be surprised if we see Braxton the rest of this game, even if his ankle is good enough for him to play in the 2nd half, given how well Cardell is playing.
I’m pretty certain that was Ford on the fumble, but the commentators said it was Presley.
And Ole Miss on the road. But this coaching staff has zero connections to that. I think it's fair to say the QB position is at least open for grabs right now.
Original FakeFan disappears about this time, always.
1st standing ovation for a visiting band? They were exceptional.
Can't remember the jersey #, but I thought I saw Presley on it. You may be right though.
I think it was Ford with the fumble, and I thought Presley caught a pass later.
Eh...maybe. I mean if you don't start Cardell next game, then Braxton is on a short leash.
He wasn't credited with one in Espn's stats. I can't find him anywhere in the stats.
Special Teams has looked VASTLY improved. A lot more speed on coverage.
Can someone please explain why people were freaking out over a bad first quarter with a whole new coaching staff and system?
It’s what TU fans do. Wait until basketball season, if we don’t go undefeated it will be worse than that first quarter.
Somehow I continue to be surprised. I'm like the guy in Memento.
Braxton on the sideline in a boot. He may not be an option next week.
Kind of sad for a season opener, but not bad for the opponent. I've seen a lot worse. TV would look great if they filmed from the East side as the west side is filled out pretty well.
