well we got the win and i guess thats what counts looks like we have some work to do at DB and special teams other than that i think everything is where it needs to be.

Arkley tweeted that it looked like he aggravated the hamstring, which sounds right given what he was doing (chasing down a receiver) and how he ran off the field.  I completely agree that the D wasn't the same after.  I guess the hope would be you hold him out for Gardner-Webb and he's ready to go for Marshall.  Keller and Carl Jones being healthy or not makes a huge difference in what kind of D the Bobcats can put on the field.

I believe he came out after he committed a pass interference.  So if that shows up in the stats, (I don't pay that much attention to play by play stats) we will be able to know precisely when he left the game.

Okay, we won.  But NMSU is pretty lousy.  Leading the bad is that I couldn't find a way to get my $400 down on a bet on the 'Cats.  Any time they are giving away money I try to take it.

Maybe we were holding back and/or playing a lot of guys to give them experience but:  way too may big plays and 3rd down conversions for NMSU...special teams coverage...anyone who could watch that game and not know who our starting running back should be (never tackled going backwards) cannot read the number 20...at their goal line, at about their 2.5 yard line and we line up in the shotgun with a 183 lb running back standing on the 10 yard line--are you serious?  At the goal line, put the big guy and another r.b. in--so we have beef and so they don't know who it's going to....Too many rollout passes--takes away 30-40% of the field for our receivers...our back up qb needs to have the ability to zip the ball in (can't  always float it).

Okay.  We won pretty big and were never really threatened after mid 2nd quarter.  But if we're as good as we hope, then it shoulda been better.
