WT Football

[LSC Fan]

I think most of the WT posters have moved on to other things as have other posters from former LSC powers when their programs started to suck.

I do keep in touch with "Merm". He and His Wife retired and moved to Thailand.

Yep... Sports message boards in general are declining thanks to X, streaming, etc. This board used to have high traffic when it was the only source to follow games of interest in real time before streaming or real time stats became a thing.

When your team (like TAMUK and WTAM) has been stuck in the ditch of mediocrity to just bad football for over a decade and some change now, it is very, very hard to stay engaged. Plus when you see weight being added to the survival of your program by external and internal factors, you really get discouraged.

This season might have the rest of us moving on. I think everyone should be prepared for a 3-8 WT record with most games not even being competitive.

We’re 9-16 soon to be 9-17 in the past 3 seasons. Seems like a fever dream if you experienced the years of 20,000 fans at Kimbrough, LSC championships and games against ACU, Tarelton, ASU and Kingsville. I’m not going to spend a weekend driving 250 miles to Canyon to watch a 1-4 team play Sul Ross. I did drive to Canyon usually 5 times a season from 2006-2013 and took the whole family. Now I sweep the garage and check the score before bedtime. Oh the Buffs lost by 4 touchdowns again with 3800 in attendance.

I am totally with you. I moved from Amarillo in 2014 which was the time that WT started the collapse. I havent attended a game since. I think its time for a modern coach instead of recycling coaches/coordinators from the old school D2 style of coaching, recruiting, etc.

Whatever happened to “Let the Buffalo Run?” Is he still at the Amarillo Airport waiting for John Sharpe?

Pops is known for his humor. ASU could start a lineman at QB and still beat WT.

Who? What? Me?

[ASUPops]

According to POPs ASU is also a WT win

Yes, correct Sir.

Western Oregon, Kingsville and Eastern New Mexico are all losses. The only wins left are Sul Ross and Midwestern.

WT defense has given up over 160 points in 4 games.

Can someone start a new thread on WT football? This has 87 pages.

We tried but ASUPops vetoed it.

This is our form of a sit-in protest. We will not start a new thread until WT returns to the playoffs.

WT could also beat ENMU. I suppose if the other games were played in horrible weather conditions WT could prevail in one of those.

It should be 100% doable with Kingsville, ENMU, Western Oregon, and Sul Ross at home and Midwestern should be a win on the road.

For me its a moot point and need to get to 7 wins with an upset of UTPB or Angelo.
