Still would like to see a few more seconds run off the clock on each play but the first quarter was probably our best so far.

Probably? Thats a pretty low bar 😉

This offensive display is incredible. Total domination of the ball and the clock.

I really like going for it on 4th and 1.  

We should be able to pick those up.

~170 yds to 4 yds in the 1st qtr.  Nice.  Keep it up.

wonder when LATech starts calling to bring back Skippy Boy, Cumby is horrible

[meaniegreenie]

Can someone verify that LaTech didn't steal/swap our uniforms before the game started?

[Mike Jackson]

They came to play today.  I missed the first drives.  Defense surprising.  Prove me wrong Eric Morris & company. 👍🏾

Everybody's moms put the jerseys in the drier and they shrank. We're seeing a lot of undershirts on both teams.

Watched one of our broadcasting students interview a La Tech blogger earlier this week and evidently the Techsters are not happy with Cumby so far.  Evidently, his offense has not been as explosive as advertised.  They also think the QB transfer has been a huge bust so far.

I’m just gonna say it; if Rodgers had started the FIU game, we would be 1-1 right now

Hold up.... never mind that this sideline reporter is terrible...

She's so amped up I expect to see her playing linebacker before this is over and putting a hurt on some people.

He looks good, but we were outscored  when he was in the game at FIU.  The Defense was a no show in Florida.  So far switching to the 4 man front has been huge.

Was he playing defense? Not sure that argument stands up

[Cerebus]

Only getting one TD out of 3 red zone trips…

We benefited from a big drop on La Techs first drive, but otherwise D looks like a different team so far.

The broadcast cut to our fans in the stands. Kudos to them for making the trip. Mean Green Nation is a handsome bunch that looks like we've been through some things. Lot of thousand yard stares like the guy at the bar who is about to tell you about Nam.

I was thinking we might be the team in RED.

[Wag Tag]

199yds to 4yds! Is that possible?

When you can help by keeping the D off the field and not turning over the ball, a QB can help the D

Thanks for the information. 👍🏾

Rogers does seem to be much better in the short to intermediate game.  His short passes definitely have some zip on them and for the most part he has been pretty accurate.

[meaniegreenie]

Okay, time for a 5 man front.

[El Paso Eagle]

There's the Defense we fear
