So, if we played every team in D1 Black College Football a mix of home and away games over that next two seasons, what would our record be? Not even thinking about it hard, we go 16-3. its that same "attitude" that caused us to get blown out by hampton this season!! the "attitude" that if its an hbcu team, then they're "automatically" inferior. well, see what that "attitude" got you against hampton? and quite frankly, we should've loss to scsu had buddy not made a bonehead decision...

I dont think it was our attitude that caused us to get blown out by Hampton this season.
I think it was our secondary and quarterback play.
We knew what the stakes were. We were just not good enough to do anything about it.

BSC is 4 - 1 vs the MEAC this year and that is without the #1 and #2 teams playing a MEAC school š¤·š¾āāļø
A&T and Hampton are BSC schools, I know itās hard to believe

BTW, two of those losses would be squarely on the coaching. The difference in coaching is demonstrated by Buddy's fake FG versus Kennesaw going 5/5 on 4th down. The reason I think HBCU head coaching is inferior is because they don't study the game. They study aspects of the game but, not the WHOLE game. I didn't understand it or believe it until this year.

I seen it before in OOC matchups but it was glaring this season

We were just not good enough to do anything about it. What got us beat by HIU was the same things that got us beat by KSU, Monmouth and almost beat by NAU and RM , the coaching staff especially the predictable play calling. A&T was Out coached and played because neither the coaches or the players were prepared . I refuse to put this season on the players shoulders . It is the COACHES RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE YOUNG-MEN ARE PREPARED TO PLAY and to make real time adjustments on the field and with personnel , to make sure that they are in position to WIN .

It has never been the excuses we always use (lacking talent ) . It has always been the Coaching,Strategy and Preparation.

We don't fund the same. We regularly expect our programs to do more than less and somehow think that's acceptable.
It's not 1891 anymore.
I'd be willing to bet money we've never lost to a team in the playoffs that we outspend. We've probably faced very few for that matter. Add to that the fact we're somewhat restricted in the players we can successfully recruit as an hbcu and in order to level the playing field we should be outspending the teams we face by a large margin in order to fairly be competitive against them.

I will say this after Saturdays game...if our team can beat the 2 best teams in the MEAC then, we have to give credit to the Big South as conference. SC State makes the Celebration Bowl with possibly a losing record. I wonder what that will do for the Celebration Bowl ratings. We all know that Jackson State will beat the snot out of SC State. But, back to us, I'm proud they played 4 quarters and pulled out a victory in South Carolina. ya'll trippin'. the meac ain't what it used to be. so when you say "beat the 2 best teams in the MEAC", you're talkin' bout a "watered down" meac. so the bsc don't deserve no doggone credit! a&t ain't in the meac no more, famu ain't in the meac no more, hampton ain't in the meac no more, and bcu ain't in the meac no more. quite frankly, famu is just as good if not better than hampton and a&t, but they're no longer in the meac. famu could beat every team hampton and a&t has beat in the bsc. so give me a break with this "our team can beat the 2 best teams in the MEAC" crap!! our team can't even beat morgan state!! the meac is "watered down", so its unfair to compare the current meac to the meac that existed before hampton, a&t, famu, and bcu left. if hampton, a&t, famu, and bcu were still in the meac, the meac would be a "stronger" conference than the bsc... I say that from the perspective that we are mediocre at best in the BS. AND I was making a general factual comparison of the circumstances in which we live. I'm not talking if who would've stayed where...simply how the circumstances are right now. We can say if SCSU's starting qb hadn't left the game with injury, they would've won but, the fact is he did leave and they loss to us. Secondly, FAMU is a damn good football team BUT, I wouldn't just say they would beat Monmouth or Kennesaw State. Those are comparisons that we can never validate. So, in the end, what I said is FACT and undisputed...PERIOD! You can spin it how you like but, those are the facts. Currently, the 2 best teams in the MEAC are SCSU and NCCU and we beat them both.

Currently, the 2 best teams in the MEAC are SCSU and NCCU and we beat them both. ohsix, in all due respect, what you stated "is not fact". if so, then "PROVE" that scsu and nccu are the two best meac teams? don't "assume" it, don't just "say it" as if your word is gospel, but "PROVE IT"! just because scsu and nccu are "currently" the two meac teams with the best conference record doesn't "PROVE" they are the two best meac teams. and it certainly doesn't "PROVE" that a&t would be in first if a&t was still in the meac. based on "your logic", norfolk state is the 3rd best team in the bsc ahead of hampton and a&t since they beat hampton and hampton beat a&t. you just can't use "your logic" to determine what "could have happened". personally i find it very ironic that the two former meac teams are tied for 3rd in the "so called" stronger conference which means the two former meac teams are better than 5 out of 7 pwc bsc teams and of the 2 pwc bsc teams that are currently tied for 1st place in the bsc, one of them won't even be in the bsc next year. which means there's only "1" bsc team returning next season that's better than the two bsc hbcu's. yeah, that big bad bsc is the next coming of the "sec" even though 2 of its top teams are "hbcu's"...

Make it make sense āprove that the two teams in the MEAC with the best conference records are actually the best teamsā hahaha
This has to be the highlight of my day, reading that post haha
There is no such thing as a former MEAC school, Hampton and NCAT are big south schools
If liberty and coastal were in the conf A&T and Hampton would be 5 and 6th
š¤£š¤£š¤£
Heck If A&T were still in the CIAA we would be first place, Hampton would be second in the CIAA
š¤£š¤£š¤£
MEAC 4 losses vs 1 win

But damn the people that favored the moved keep bringing up and bragging to the MEAC about hypothetical and if situations . Really Come On Now šš¤£š

This was an interesting season to say the least. As a program itās my hope we learned some things that will put us in a better position in the conference standings.
We were picked to finish 3rdā¦after this weekend we will see just how close that prediction was. As far as Iām concerned so far we beat every team we were expected to beat except Hampton.
We have the talent and facilities to do well in this conferenceā¦our coaching needs work.

Really Come On Now šš¤£š Honestly itās not about bragging, it is about educating those that continue to say the BSC isnāt a stronger football conf. Itās not a slight to the MEAC itās just a fact and some refuse to accept, therefore I just highlight the win loss recordā¦nothing more.
