Mean Green Versus Clemson

[Shuke-D]

The way Tune baited the defender before making the shovel pass, knowing he was gonna get smacked, was a wonder to behold. This guy is a leader.

[MootPoint]

awesome one yard gain by dunbar want some points on the board though

[PerryG2480]

Not taking away from a better than expected performance, but this game could have been so much closer if we could have reduced the "shoot yourself in the foot" errors that the announcers have been harping on all game. To me, those ultimately fall on the coaching staff.

[chrisfisher]

Dunbar is a pimp!

After one game, I'll say you're right as far as penalties are concerned. Still optimistic so far with the season.

5 penalties into the 4th quarter. 4 within the play of the game. not bad if you ask me for a first game.

[MootPoint]

not happy we couldn't put it in the endzone, but at least we didn't miss the field goal.

Not the amount, just the timing it seems to me.

[Mean Green 93-98]

Would have loved a TD, but I am glad we were able to drive down the field, and thrilled that we were able to make the FG.

is there an opportune time for a penalty?

lot to work on but i'm damn hopeful after this performance.

[CMJ]

Looks like we may beat the spread.

[MeanMag]

Kick/Punt Coverage still looks bad. Why?

A lot of this game has been lost by special teams. That's the one area where we look VERY weak.

[Mean Green 93-98]

Maybe Serrano needs to go back to kicking it out of bounds.

[akriesman]

A TD sure would have been nice there. But, this team sure does look better overall than anything we have seen in some tim

Improve the tackling and we could make some noise this year.

[MootPoint]

ugly pass interference there

[PerryG2480]

Let's go d.

Next week is gonna be fun!!

[El Paso Eagle]

Next week is gonna be fun!!

Are we going to learn to tackle by then?

Outside of an ugly second quarter, it looks like Rice has hung okay with Texas. They are currently losing 34-10, we are currently losing 35-10.

[akriesman]

Big plays, big plays, big plays. Dammit, we just can't stop them.

[Pen Yan Fan]

This team has some serious issues at the safety position.

[FireFightnJoey]

Our D is atrocious. They've given up 35 points in less than 15 minutes of possession! Its our offense that is making us look like we belong on the field with the exception of not being able to score. If they haven't kept the clock running and controlling possession, we'd be in dire straits!

I'm still not optimistic for this season. I need something to give me hope!

[MootPoint]

good field position; let's see what we do with it

[akriesman]

This team has some serious issues at the safety position.

Yep.

I agree that it needs to improve, but that is easier said than done when you are outsized by a fairly large margin.
