Re: Mid season grades and thoughts

It is not a question at all. Mensah plays the most important position in all of sports. We must keep him.

Re: 10/19 Rice at Tulane – 2:30pm CT, ESPN+

Wish we would get some night home games. I guess those days are gone which means we are winning and respected. I’ll take the winning.

Re: TU 71 - UAB 20. Wave have won 17 of 18 last AAC reg season games.

Pleasant is starting to affect games on an Elpheage level. It's pretty amazing. This past week Sumrall mentioned we'd worked on multiple plays with both QBs in, and hadn't shown them yet. The "flip" play we rolled out was indeed cool, up until TT overthrew a wide open receiver for what wo...

Re: TU 71 - UAB 20. Wave have won 17 of 18 last AAC reg season games.

How we gonna get the ball to Pleasant? I understand totally why Mensah starts. Sumrall wants a game manager who makes minimal turnovers who gets the ball consistently in the hands of his playmakers. Just need to get Pleasant more involved like sumrall is doing with Thompson. Pleasant has three 100 ...

Re: What if: Preston stone was healthy last year vs Tulane

The thing that killed us in that game was our offense (with hobbled Pratt and missing JJ and Keys) couldn't do anything against their defense. Jennings (/Stone) wasn't why we lost. Don’t disagree with you at all. But coaching, or lack thereof, played a factor. Fritz was on the plane the minute the ...

Re: TU 71 - UAB 20. Wave have won 17 of 18 last AAC reg season games.

So we gave up 75 yards on the ground yesterday. 61 of those were on one play, which means they had 14 yards on their other 21 carries, which of course includes sacks. We gave up 256 yards in the air yesterday, with 73 coming on a garbage time TD. So that means on their other 42 pass attempts they h...

Re: TU 71 - UAB 20. Wave have won 17 of 18 last AAC reg season games.

And I believe it. We had a backup OL and 3rd string running back room . . . Who looked amazing ! McClure and Barnes were sensational. It was a highlight real. We were just running the ball and ripping off 11 yard gains at will. The 3 td red zone trip was something I had never seen before. But Corey...

Re: What if: Preston stone was healthy last year vs Tulane

It turns out Preston stone was not the answer for smu. Smu now has a 35% chance at the playoff after beating Louisville on the road. As we saw Jennings is a legit qb for Smu. Here’s my question- if Preston stone doesn’t get hurt do we beat Smu in the CCG last year and make the ny6 ? No. Fritz had c...

Re: Scoreboard Watching Week 6: What "other" results favor TU?

Remember we have a pretty tough schedule in front of us. At North Texas, Navy, and an improving Charlotte team. Then Memphis and hopefully a championship game. If we can win out, I would argue our path is a lot harder than Boise’s. But Boise has to lose. The best chances for that will be UNLV, San J...

Re: Pac 12 Realignment

During B1G, SEC and Big 12 expansions, the conferences negotiated with their media partners to learn value of potential adds, “We will give you full share for USC, one-half for U Dub”. Conversations like that. There is now enough meat on bone with PAC 7+ Zaga + different iterations of potential add...

Re: We've played UAB 12 Times and the Series is Split, 6-6.

Folks, I don't follow UAB/Dilfer at all. My Xitter feed suggests his team is in turmoil and he has allegedly lost control of his locker room and at least some of his staff. I’m not interested in gossip. But can someone summarize to us low information Blazer gazers, what is going on over there. Is t...

Terrific size. Exactly what we need at CB. Long and fast. Hearing there is a possibility we could be adding a huge piece. Hopefully it happens. Also, had a lot of juco OT’s visiting. I think the staff likes the OL we signed last year, but we need to create as much competition as we can. Depth was so...

The changes on the DL were outstanding. And there was a Jenkins sighting. Just a great defensive effort. Mensah was terrific. Do I dare say he is better than Pratt at the same point in their college careers. The tampering will begin soon. Hope he loves Tulane. Agree about North Texas, they are putti...

Tongue in cheek question- Willie is fired at the end of next year and Sumrall takes us to the playoff before leaving for an SEC job. . . Would you get back together with the ex GF (HC). Never. You all may disagree but I feel he sandbagged the 2023 AAC Championship game plan. Same here. Even if didn...

The defense has been considered suspect by a lot of folks (including a few who happen to post on a certain fan site...); they showed a lot more dominance this week, particularly against a experienced quarterback (unfortunately, his consecutive completions without an interception streak is intact). ...
