They were going for the hammer...I'm fine with that..

I am fine with it too, if you realize you are going to go for it, if it doesn't work. Pointless to do that, knowing you are going to punt if it fails when you have a sure thing in KP.

MSU defense has to be getting tired.

[Eagle-1 3,821]

So refreshing to see our linebackers making tackles at the line of scrimmage. Been a long time.

Everyone would be celebrating if that play call had been complete...amazing how an unsuccessful play ends up being about the play call...

Amen, sir.

Come on man. 3rd and 1? I am fine if he does that KNOWING he is going for it on 4th down, but you are dominating the line. Just run it right there.

Yep.

I think its safe to say that the game of rock, paper, scissors that Gus and RL used to play to decide who was going to call the next playcall was slowing us down

and I think gus as Head coach just got WAY too conservative... Lashlee is calling it Like Gus used to when he was OC and as Head coach but willing to take chances and open it up...

That statement works if you have any worry that you will get stopped. I have none that our OL couldn't push for ONE yard. 

Yeah buts it's usually designed to throw 30 or 40 yards. Not just pick up a first down. Trust me I'd rather run most times in that situation but keeping the defense guessing is also important.

Thank you T-Will!

probably would have gone for it...but SW lost a couple yards...which changed the odds...but meanwhile...are we over-working KP today?  

[tbone4jc 2,362]

I like the flow of the offense. No fluff. Kinda of reminds me of the days of old. Me likey!

I thought it was a spin Twister board of plays . Either way it sucked.

crap

[WarEagle1983 2,190]

Why did it seem like Stevens wasn't going full speed on that?

[DAG 34,752]

Our punter has been setting us up nicely

[WarTiger 4,014]

penalty destroyed that drive unfortunately.  let's go defense.

[Tiger 8,854]

Ughhh that's 6

[hutchids 239]

penalties giving State a chance to hang around

[Dual-Threat Rigby 9,045]

Man Stevens is an interesting guy, I'll say that
