Now that was awesome, very well spoken, honest and true... like the coach said, we have to try and find a way to put Saturday behind us, be proud of our guys 9&2, and move on to new and bigger things...

I realize he being the coach have to put a positive spin. Since I live in duhram my phone is still ringing off the hook. Sorry I just can't get pass this game yet. Hope we win but you all can tell me what happen. This was our year and they took it from us. We got to start getting mad about this thing. The players,coaches and fans. We got to start getting piss and bring that emotion into the game.

Sent from my SCH-I545 using proboards Yeah... there's a line to be drawn between general love for all of our HBCUs and competitive "hatred" for NCCU. After watching the ESPNU replay, Jay Walker said it best... NCCU "hates" A&T.... A&T just "doesn't like" NCCU. That was a big difference.

Sent from my SCH-I545 using proboards I wholeheartedly agree with both of you. Hatred, mad, pissed, it's very evident the NCCU HATES A&T. We've gotten all the media attention, nationally ranked all season, played on ESPNU several more times than them (which their coach publically showed displeasure with on Twitter) and it was personal to them...with that said, 9-2 is nice. Beating Kent State is nice. But, what do we have to show for it at the end of the day - other than a FCS playoff bid. I'd rather get trophies and banners! That's probably a reason why WSSU went back to the CIAA - because they'd be more likely to get trophies and banners rather than just being competitive. Second place is first loser. You don't walk around remembering teams who got into the 1992 NBA Playoffs - You remember the team that won the playoffs and raised the trophy and banner. But, I guess like Trues, when you live or are from Durham like myself, your hatred for Central goes up a few levels... for the moment, I've returned to the notion of "just win Homecoming and beat NCCU". Or, just beat NCCU.

I wish that broadway would start in the first game next year preaching they took last year away from us and I mad piss etc(what adjective you want to use) lets get back to where we was at and use that be a motivation be mad about this thing because I am. it have to start with the coach that's my point.

Damn hating Central.......be PREPARED to beat Central. Beat them on Sunday through Friday on the practice field and in the locker room when you're studying their asses.
The 21-point difference on the scoreboard Saturday wasn't due to Central's hate A&T's receivers dropping passes wasn't due to Central's hate Missing defensive assignments wasn't due to Central's hate Cohen not taking what the defense gave them wasn't due to Central's hate Malcolm Bell dissecting our defense with his legs and arms wasn't due to Central's hate for us.
Central has beaten us for 3 straight years because they've been the better prepared and better executing team for 3 straight years.
I'm so damn tired of "we don't hate them enough" ; "we weren't motivated enough." Hell, Coach Broadway even said in the press conference that HE FELT the team was ready to go Saturday.
Central's hate for us didn't start 3 years ago when Mack came in. They've been hating us for years.......but we historically have been whipping their tails for decades. Call a spade a spade......Central is a better program. Central has a better coach and coaching staff. Central is a better prepared team. If you don't accept these premises (instead of talking about how much more we should hate them), we will not make the necessary adjustments and advancements to overtake them....

Respectfully, I think what we/they mean is sometimes pure emotions and passion to play the game against your most dreaded opponent in competition overcomes preparation. Central circled November 19, 2016 on their calendar and could not wait to rip our necks off. I agree, if our coaches knew that we couldn't throw the ball, we should've done more run plays with all the horses we have including Cartwright. Trick plays, options, etc. So, preparation was indeed lacking, but the passion, emotion, WILL TO WIN regardless of circumstance could have helped.
