the dsu db's literally "mugged" bell before the ball made contact with his hands and the officials didn't call it! it really pissed me off... On most passing plays the Del State guys were draped all over our receivers and we got no calls. I think the refs we had last night figured we had more talent and would win the game so why bother calling all those pass interferences. I stopped watching the replays on the jumbotron because it was so obvious and they still didn't call it.

I think the refs we had last night figured we had more talent and would win the game so why bother calling all those pass interferences. I stopped watching the replays on the jumbotron because it was so obvious and they still didn't call it. Yes we did not get many calls and yes they were all over our receivers . Part of that is because our receivers continue to run the same old routes . The DSU DB's knew exactly where our receivers were going in passing situation the only thing that saved our receivers was that they were more physical and bigger . There was hardly any passes thrown to the middle of the field that was open all night . Our receivers routes have got to become more diverse as the season continues . The OC needs to come up with more imaginative routes that will provide all receivers with separation . This Jump Ball U thing is all good but not on every dog gone time a pass is thrown . It looks good but do you know the Force and impact it has on the receiver's body . Mr OC you need to start adding routes that are receiver friendly this "Jump Ball Crap" is getting old and predictable by the defense is that we face . As much as I hate to say this Mr OC you could learn a few things from FAMU's passing system . They used the hold field in there system and Incorporated all their receivers to include the tight end . Mr OC you need to diversify our route systems . Good win Aggie Pride .

16,567 on a Thursday night is quite impressive. I just wish we had a small press box media outlet on visitors side the optics of filming from press box primarily show the sparse crowd in the visitor section. They panned the home field side a couple of times but most of the games back drop of the visitors sparsely populated section. With all the empty seats on the visitor's side, I would give ESPNU carte blanche to construct a platform at the top of the bleachers at the 50 yard line for the cameras to survey the field.....WITH THE HOME SIDE BEING THE BACKDROP. At our next AAF meeting, I'll bring it up. It may also be worth talking with Hilton about this as well. This same issue has crossed my mind before. It's all about aesthetics. As beautiful as last night was, the cameramen would have had no problems filming the game from there. It was also a nice night when we played Elon. It's all about the aesthetics!!

I’ve been saying that for years. Mention that Youngstown State used to have a similar problem (they actually filmed an altogether empty side with no grandstands whatsoever) and they built a smaller visitors side for better aesthetics and to accommodate the tv cameramen.
They also won multiple national championships. I’m just saying
