I don't want to hear jack about "Florence" causing us to lose.
We lost because of very poor coaching
We lost because we have a Pop Warner field goal kicker and they had a pro kicker.
We lost because our qb play is poor.
We lost because of poor play calling.
We lost because they had the better team.
We lost because of poor decisions by our head coach.
We lost because it was time.

the Pollsters are gonna drop us to oblivion now That is truly sad because of the loooooong hard fight to get as high in da polls as we did. Lose yes but NO to a team that was winless and inferior to us. The coaches have to wear this and learn from it.

We lost in every phase of this game and it was embarrassing. We had this coming, we have lost in most phases of the game in all our games. With the exception of Gardner Webb we have not moved the ball and people move the ball w ease on us. The only difference is turnovers and special teams. I have been routing for our kicker but its obvious this is hopeless.
This was a bad night. The bright spot was that we did not do stop and frisk tactics at the gate and that went smoothly and the BGMM had a spectacular performance. Golden Delight is in a league of their own. Other than that i want to erase this out my memory.

What about this scenario if Morgan and A&T win out. What would be the tiebreaker for the Celebration bowl? Morgan win over us or the total number of points earned from non conference wins. Well the good news is Howard is going to beat the break off Morgan this year. We will win the tie breaker because we will have more points. In addition this was a non conference game so not sure head to head would be a factor ...

Ok.……..had a chance to check out my first game of the year in person after visiting relatives who were hit hard by the hurricane. My first hand take: We were not prepared for this game. I put the fault entirely on the coaching staff. We looked totally disinterested and unmotivated. We went up against a team that was 0-3 for the season and we were ranked 4 or 5 nationally. We looked confused and totally out of rhythm. Again, not good coaching. WR #13 Bell did not catch a pass. Even our highly-acclaimed run defense got dogged. It seemed like the OC got overly involved in the "go for broke" passing game instead of using the middle of the field routes to continue to move the ball. Even when MSU had the ball on their winning field goal drive Coach Washington did not utilize his remaining time outs to insure that upon MSU kicking a successful field goal...…..at least A&T would have had time left on the clock for a possible game winning drive. This^^^^^ We were not prepared for this game. I put the fault entirely on the coaching staff. We looked totally disinterested and unmotivated. We looked confused and totally out of rhythm. Again, not good coaching. It seemed like the OC got overly involved in the "go for broke" passing game instead of using the middle of the field routes to continue to move the ball. The coaching staff had a bad game tonight. Breaking news: the SC State Puppies visit us in 5 days. Hopefully, that game will serve as coaching staff redemption for the 'hot mess express' they cooked up tonight.

What bothered me the most about this game was it showed that we're an ordinary team. The swagger is dead. And I wouldn't be surprised if we lost at least two more games this season.
This may be the beginning of the end of the Aggie football fairytale.

There were a few times I thought Carter had space and lanes to run but he was looking for the pass.

Man...I hope that our players and coaching staff have better resolve than some of us here. We lost a game, but not the whole damn season! We're still better than anyone else in this conference.
Sulk for about 12 hours, then get over it and make the adjustments/corrections/substitutions. We have 5 days before we tee it up again. All in...AGGIE DAMN PRIDE!!

I'm going to relax. Lamar will be back. The undefeated bubble is gone now. It's back to showing and proving again. This team will be there in the end.

Did you not watch the game yesterday? Carter ran a bunch of times. Made some first downs by running.
He also threw the ball a bunch of times, which is why you have a passing game in the first place.
Not sure what it is that you are wanting him to do.

Yeah, I watched it. I am saying he could run some more because their coverage on the recievers was decent, instead of forcing passes.

I think that is nitpicking.
If he ran and got stopped short of the marker, people would say he needs to stand in the pocket more and keep his eyes downfield.

This was the best defeat to happen at the right time for this team ! Because it brought reality back to both the coaches and the players . That old phrase any given Saturday or Sunday Rings volumes . A&T was not hungry and most championship teams stay hungry through the whole season . Now that reality has hit it's time for the hunger to return . Aggie Pride
