We would have to win and win convincingly the rest of these games.. I don't see it. That blow out last Saturday did us in.
There is a slim chance but we have no signature win. Bootom line is if we dominate and since we are national runner up.......we have a chance
Yes but have we heard if Wells will apply for medical? I sent an email to find out if a player can still medical hardship with a red-shirt year after his freshman year and have yet to hear back from the NCAA clearing house. I will post the response. I believe that is fine if he was eligible to play all 4-years ...which he was, but Wells requested and was granted a transfer & red-shirt for the 2017 season. He revoked that when Montgomery asked him to take back the starting role. So I really have no idea.http://www.athletics.vt.edu/compliance/competition/seasons.html 1AAFan I believe you can't play in more then 2 games. The few snaps he took in Robert Morris and SDS probably ruined his chances for another of eligibility under medical hardship
Poor performance by the Guins. I really thought they would bounce back in a big way from the two tough losses, but instead they regressed, especially Mays. Too bad Bo's crystal ball didn't tell him before the spring that Wells would only see action in six quarters through seven games. He would have left Ricky at QB, and be in a little better position.I'm not as sure as you on Davis. We saw one really good half against WVU and that is really it. Hard to say how good he would have been. HE didn't think he was as good as Hunter or Mays or he wouldn't have asked to go to WR. Nobody, at any level is good with the 3rd string guy at QB. Too bad, this team could have done something in the playoffs again with reasonable health.
Let’s hope Bo can recruit to the league from here on out. He is on record that he rather have overachievers with a high football IQ. So size isn’t an issue for him. Wolford went out and had s blue print on what he wanted on both lines he wanted length and if he could size he would develop them. Look at last years line it was enormous. His game plan if he would have stayed he was recruiting upper Midwest etc because those kids had length. He said I am not trying to mean but the Mahoning Valley doesn’t and couldn’t provide that. If you don’t have the physical attributes with the football IQ you end up getting beat up like we did this week and honestly it’s not going to get easier. I hope we can right this to some W’s.
How many sacks have we given up the past two weeks?
As a fan I was just mentally and physically exhausted from the Bison loss all week.. cant imagine how the team felt. I still feel this team is maybe as good if not better then last year's team. A 3-4 record is just hard for me to stomach since the 4 losses have come down to the wire against quality opponents and we have not been completely healthy during this stretch. I think the coaching staff finds a way to win the next 4 and we sneak in..I still believe in this team
Today's game didn't "come down to the wire". We were beaten in every phase of the game from the opening whistles
The kids simply looked tired . Bye week sucked .
Beat up and tired, yes.
I agree with Chief. Must win. If we lose this game, season over.
Hate to pick, but we lost to Pitt by 7 not 3 and the best team in FCS is clearly JMU. I think we can get better. I think we are good enough to make the playoffs and I think if you get healthy and get on a run, we could do damage in the playoffs. Right now we are a bit better than we were this time last year, but not better than we were during our playoff run.Pitt and NDSU are better than any team in FCS and we lost to both by 3 points in overtime--we are capable of beating any team in FCS imho.
Agree 100% if we can just stay focused and win out there is no reason we can’t be a national championship team this year. We are a better team than last year, just had a few tough breaks so far.
I disagree we are a better team than last year. Good team, yes. But we are a notch below what we were last year.
I dunno, I think we’re playing just as well as we did in the playoffs last year. If a couple plays go differently we’re undefeated with a win over NDSU and an FCS team.
