Thank u Mr. Mason?   I remember a playoff game against James Madison in 2006 when Mason was completely shut down until the 4th quarter.  How can you make comments like that and call yourself a fan?

Mason was injured, and only played on 3-series (first 2, and last). At least two of which ended up with scores. It was "Q" that was shut-down. Honestly, Q had almost 100-yards ...so it was not a bad game for him either. We just fell apart in inside the 30. However, it was Mason that came in & took three snaps for the the winning TD. Just a thing of beauty. They had no answer for him. Not too many teams did. ILS held Mason in check the next week ...close game. Then week-3 was the Appy State blow-out ...that was my biggest embarrassment until these past 2-weeks.

You see, we made the semis with a team that was not stellar, but certainly above average. Just disciplined by experience. This current team has a seasoned front line, and 3 excellent TE's ...our strongest positions. Yet, our opponents alter the look of their front D front & then send in the ends and we collapse. So why are we still sending out our TE's as receivers, instead of placing them in a more traditional  blocking capacity ...giving Hess some additional protection? They all block well ...Adams probably has the best blocking technique, and Sharbaugh is a beast. Furthermore, why did we not bring in Pace to see if we could power run, and/or short pass to him. He is really a FB with some "style". I would also suggest and imbalanced line, and try to force the opposing defense to adjust. They would only get us once out of three tries ...at best.

Great movie!!  Let's hope our boys are ready this weekend.....

It was hard to watch the team roll over and die against the redbirds.
