Wt @ ASU

[Rockofwesties]

Yes WT Football is painful to watch.

[BuffaloChip]

Agreed.

Went to watch the replay and it is painful to watch. 1st and goal for ASU at the WT 4-yard line, and the camera feed is from the end zone; and NOT the end zone close to the play. They are showing a shot from a camera that is at least 116 yards behind the play, on ground level, from the other end zone.

The other problem is them switching from end zone level to the press box shot, or vice versa, in the middle of the play.

End zone shots are generally good for one thing: Field Goal/Extra Point attempts.

Not expecting a professional because I know many of the schools let their communications department run the show to get the kids experience, but this is just a common sense issue. It also might be the case of having someone do this who knows nothing about football. Either way, someone needs to step in.

Exactly!

Hell’s Bells. What dipstick is directing the Angelo broadcast? Quit with the stupid ass field level endzone camera angles. You can’t tell if it’s a 1 yard or a 20 yard play. What a bunch of bull sh1t!

Yeah right. If field level cam shots from the end zone were good for viewing, you'd see them on Fox, CBS, NBV, or ESPN broadcasts. Whoever ran that outfit is still a dipstick for an out house toilet..

I’ve never liked end zone seating or camera shots from the end zone.

[BuffaloChip]

I thought you were excited for us to get end zone seating at the BS squared back when it was horseshoe shaped?

I am cautiously optimistic. I was not happy with the first two games - I did not think they would help us be prepared for the LSC games. We barely got out of WT with a win, despite forcing 6 turnovers. However, it was more important than just a win, because before teams have to learn how to win games like that. I was a bit surprised at how quickly and thoroughly we jumped out on ENMU. We seemed to have improved a lot last week. If we can continue to improve, we'll compete for a top 3 LSC finish.



Newer fans (post-Bo) haven't seen much on-field success. One good season, a lot of losses, a lot of ass-whoopins.

The Cundiff-Bo era had some really good teams (6 playoff teams, 2 semi-final appearances), but also some mediocrity, and a couple of really bad years.

Harms had us consistently on the national stage, owning the LSC, consistently making deep runs in the playoffs, and bringing in NFL-caliber prospects.

and a few us were blessed to witness the Steinke era and some of the best LSC teams/players in history, and 6 National Championships.



So the excitement is understandable - different reasons for fans depending on when you became part of the Javelina family.

I am ALL for TAMUK returning to "form". What a long struggle it has been. However, like you, I am cautious. I have watched a team go 5-1 in their 1st six games. The one loss was to a D1. Everyone was excited and the team was BACK. They finished 6-5. (Angelo State 2009).

So, I say be excited....but tap the brakes until you play UTPB, CWU, ANGELO, MSU-Texas.

Hey, TAMUK could be legit and undefeated this season. You naever know!

Get your WT icon ready.

Don't count your chickens just yet!!!

This is a few days old now, but I thought I would share. Wayne Cavadi had Coach Girsch and Nate Omayebu III with him on his show on 9/21. Here’s the link if anyone’s interested:

It is nice to see the piggies so excited.......I am even excited to see a recent bottom dweller sitting at 4-0. HOWEVER...they need to tap the brakes a bit. 7070707.

They beat a HS team in NA, a D3 in Ross, WT because of 3 INTs, and a legitimate win over a subpar ENMU. Let's see how they do in their final 4 games. Haha.

I think Hughes will keep his job if he wins 6 total games. GWB, didn’t McBroom tell you to lower your expectations for football? Are you there yet?

The UTPB game will tell us if there is any hope at all. Remember last season they led WT 42-17 at one point.

The second half was all about coaching. Angelo has a winner. We have a guy who is slightly over .500 thanks to games against sub D2 games (North American, Panhandle State and other NAIA teams).

Its still difficult for me to see them as this helpless underdog after seeing them tear through everyone in the late 90s/early 2000s.

To me Kingsville's schedule is set up nicely after this week in regards to skill level.

Western New Mexico has improved, UTPB has been slightly better, and of course Angelo is the class of the conference.

If Kingsville and Angelo both roll into that game 7-0 then that will be a sight to see.

Its a shame they could get at least 1 non conference D2 opponent.

Because of that they are probably only able to get away with one loss.

[Buffalo/Islander Alum]

WT is not going to win out, run the table, or do much of anything good. Hughes is not a head coach.

To me (and should also be this way for the WT AD) the playoffs have already started.

Hughes needs to win 7 in a row to keep his job.

[WT_TKW]

The issue is even if WT wins out they are likely the #3 LSC team barring an Angelo/Kingsville collapse and their SOS is going to suck the huge one due to the Adams State turd.

One thing in favor of a 2 loss 3rd place LSC team is unless upsets happen the RMAC should only get one team in.

Colorado Mines and Western Colorado already have 2 losses so the winner of their game will get the "automatic bid".

WT will be the blocker to prevent Western Colorado from getting in due to head to head.

Kingsville needs to only lose to Angelo since they only have 9 D2 games.

Central Washington has the Ferris State SOS but only 10 D2 games.

Wild card will be if the NSIC has multiple teams that finish with 1 or 2 losses.

WT is not going to win out, run the table, or do much of anything good. Hughes is not a head coach.

Don't count them out yet! ANYTHING can happen in football.
