I really hope the coaches can hone in on this anger and focus it. If they can, I'd really gotta pencil us in as a top-8 playoff seed. The team was excited for Spring and they received a #10 ranking and some FCS pundits gave us an outside shot to win it all. That pissed off alot FCS folks. Especially those who think we are inferior and non deserving. So that's fueling alot of this. And how for some reason people think Jackson State is the best HBCU program due to recuiting and Deion. Like I said , fellas ready to show the world. Just pray we stay focused and take it one game at a time. No more Morgan state type slip-ups A part of this focus a lot of us keep referring should also include eliminating those pesky and unecessary PERSONAL FOULS, that I recall from 2019, where we got third down stops but defense remained on field because dead ball fouls. We were baited into some of them but nonetheless they need to be curtailed. We have to learn to channel that emotion to the next snap or once we return to the sideline. There is a quote that a couple players and definitely former players under Broadway have used a lot and that's, "if you make a bad play, keep playing, if you make a good play, keep playing, no matter what just keep playing." If we can follow this mantra throughout the 2021 campaign I think we'll be just fine.

It's not a slip up when they beat you twice . Might not be a "slip up" or "slip ups", but it's/they're something. We shouldn't have lost either of those games. Frankly, we should have also gone undefeated in 2018. True after we beat ECU in 18 it should be a cake walk. We overlooked Morgan and FAMU

I wonder if we’re going with Jordan Brand now. I see the jumpman logo in some of these photos. In fact, it should be time for us to renegotiate our endorsement terms with Nike, if not another brand, since we’re in the BS now.

True after we beat ECU in 18 it should be a cake walk. We overlooked Morgan and FAMU I don't think we overlooked them it was those personal fouls officiating that allowed Morgan to basically get into position for that long field goal kick Kodak moment. FAMU was a different story some of our players were targeted by the officials maybe it came from upstairs but it was nasty and ugly in Bragg Stadium. Even here in Aggie Stadium it was the officiating that was the causative factor. At Morgan we were out of sync period just could not get it together.

We have been buying Nike gear with the Jordan logo on them for years now. No Jordan Brand contract, for now.

Sent from my SM-G950U using proboards

Sent from my SM-G950U using proboards I was there too...as poorly as we played we had our opportunity to make the comeback. But, I think that loss served us well in the long run...I mean, if I had to lose that late in the season I do not mind that loss. And you could tell the team learned a lot from that loss.

At 1:42, I see a helmet to helmet hit....then I see clock mismanagement. They should have been able to run at least 3-5 extra plays in regulation.

I recall seeing the official throwing a flag prior to the catch and after catch picked the flag up when players and fans rushed the field. We were the better team that day despite the homecooking that took place. I hope we can play them in Atlanta for a classic or in the Circle City Classic.

Homecooking, clock wrong, excuses, excuses. We’re a championship program and have to expect things like that every time out and play above it and win despite the adversity, period. Otherwise we’ll be lucky to be .500 for the foreseeable future.

We looked tired, the run play with Jah never got setup the, defender on the final play was 2-4 yards from the the receiver, in fact the offense and coaches played that as if they had decided to let Ruiz settle it.
