Unfortunately Berry goes very conservative with a lead. hey why risk it running is how we got the ball downfield to score on our opening drive in the 2nd half, so why not continue wat works It stopped working. |

I also don't know why we refuse to run Cole-train is short yardage situations. He was a beast in their first drive (4 carries for 41 yards) and then all of the sudden he is never heard from the rest of the night. I think Cole got hurt, I notice them working on him on the sideline during the game. But he was a true monster running that ball. I can't wait to see more of that. |

I spoke to Cole-train after the game. He wasn't hurt, he just got his ankle re-taped.

Do we wait until we lose a game to go a different direction at qb? Carlton Fears is looking more and more like the qb from last year. We really put the defense in bad position all night long.

He had one good game.
He had one not so good game.
Is it fair to judge him off the bad one only?

Carlton Fears is this year Jason Battle. He will not hurt u, if you now anything about football a qb job is to manage the game, and do not turn the football over. Fears is best when is going to his right and moving out of the pocket, he cannot throw to his left. We need some of the other wide-outs to step up beside Miles, Raper had some big catches for first downs last night but we need more. We need Raper to catch the ball over the middle so he can do something after the catch. What happen to the Future? We have some good young talent on this team we just need for it to grow up. A qb change should not be talked about at this time.

You guys just kill me. We go through a six year drought of pure embarrassment and we finally get a competent coaching staff that has put together a couple nice wins with a very young team and now here we go, whining and complaining because everyone's fan favorite isn't getting enough playing time to suit them.
We have gone 2-0 with strong defense and no offensive turnovers and that is how you win ball games in this league. You don't get style points for being pretty. If it's ugly, so be it.
This is something that no one is accustomed to because its been so long since A&T had some real fire in the belly and that is a team that is playing with passion and determination.
If this had been the same old crew of a year ago down 13-3 in the second, the team would have folded and the fans would have headed to the exits. Instead, they manned up, created their own opportunities and took it straight at NSU and brought the pain.
I learned more about us from how we responded to adversity last night than I would from any big runs or fancy passing stats. For once, just try look at the big picture of the progression of this team in the way they play as the season rolls along and not just what you think you see from the stands.

Way to go AGGIE ONE! If the veteran players on offense were better than the Freshman, they would play. Lee didn't bench the Senior defensive lineman over the Freshman.
Hell, Ferg may have had to split time this year.
I give Lee credit for being able to bench and run off lazy players. Fobbs latched on to a couple early that he should have benched.
