Watched the Harding v. ECU Game live - I thought it was a very sloppy game by both teams. Harding fumbled the ball quite a bit (just like last years home opener), and had a chance to jump out 14-0 EARLY but let one loose going in for a score. Who would have thought Harding would have tossed 3 scores! If I’m an ECU fan, I would have serious concerns about the ECU offense. Their QB took a pounding, and was running for his life dang near every play. Him taking that type of pounding was evident when he had to leave the game on 4th down, leading to the backup coming in and dropping the snap at was a crucial drive. 161 total yards and 2.8 yard/play average is not going to beat a lot of teams. But it is early. I thought that ECU did a good job of containing the run (basing off the fact they gave up 219 yards and limited big plays on the ground) but how are you going to give up 3 passing TD’s. For the amount of returning starters on the ECU team, I found them very underwhelming.
Watched the end of the Tech v. Southeastern Game - Have regrets for not tuning into this one sooner. Sounded like a great game and the best game of the night. Without watching really much of it, the difference, from my opinion within the box score was Southeastern going 4/4 in the red zone to Tech’s 2/4. Both teams were miserable on 3rd down, but Tech did go 3/4 on 4th to Southeastern’s 0/3. I’ll try and catch the replay online sometime this weekend. The Savage Storm have a dangerous passing attack that’s for sure. I would guess that Tech surprised a lot of people in this game.
OBU v. OKBU - Didn’t watch, but OBU ran for 400+ yards, yet completed 2/16 passes. For the Hype (I remember a previous poster this summer comparing that kid to Josh Allen), 2/16 is pretty disappointing. OKBU put up some numbers and intrigued by this new QB they have.
HSU v. Southwestern - I didn’t catch this game live, but did watch the replay. HSU has a dual threat at QB and he could be a dangerous player with his feet. Underwhelming in the pass game as they only completed 7 passes and threw one TD. Southwestern, I don’t know what to think. They dropped more passes than they caught and really struggled to get anything going offensively. I counted two dropped touchdowns. Southwestern’s OL put their QB in the same situation as the ECU OL did, forcing the QB to run for his life. Is Southwestern that bad on offense or are the Reddies that good on defense? I envision a long year for the Bulldogs.
UAM v. SNU - Didn’t watch.
SAU v. Northwestern - Is this SAU offense for real? Their sports information department clearly isn’t because they still haven’t posted anything at the time of this post.
Overall, I’m glad GAC football is back. As a fan of the Natty State Teams, I was thrilled to see the Natty State almost execute a clean sweep. C’mon Tech!
