All of this running on 1st down, and constantly checking to the sideline instead of running tempo, is killing any type of surprise factor from the offense. Horrible decision by Ellis, but this is what happens when he's put in 3rd and long situations.
Thank God the defense stepped up and got the ball right back with the INT.
Be aggressive and get this ball down the field, and put some points on the board.
Don't let this Norfolk St team hang around.

This game definitely doesn't encourage people to come back and watch this team. The kickoff return was the most exciting play of the game. Watching this live, you see the lack of creativity in this offense. Defense has to hold up 80% of the time.

Aych needs to have the play calling duties taken away from him.

HBCU's who have lost their Homecoming game today
- Tuskegee - Morehouse - Lane - Shaw - Albany St - Bethune-Cookman - South Carolina St - Jackson St - Grambling
Will Tennessee St be the next one to do it? Tied now at 17 with Norfolk St.
If the offense doesn't get points right here, the defense may have to score ( or force a turnover deep in NSU territory ) in order for TSU to win the game.

Finally they start to pick the pace up. Should've been doing this the entire 2nd half. Now they're checking back at the sideline again. Just run the damn plays.
Nice pass by Ellis.

ROUSE MISSED BLOCK... ELLIS WOULD BE GONE!! Which is why we shouldn't switch qbs so much communication is lost per play.

THIS GUY STARTED AT RIGHT GUARD OL 6'6" 325 lbs 72 Kaleob Onyeahialam FRESHMAN I thought the same, but the helmet read #64. I think maybe #64-Branch's jersey got lost or tore up. I believe Branch was wearing #72-Onyeahialam's jersey.

We had several guys out, and a couple of more got hurt.
Found a way to win, but sheesh.

Ellis has to take better care of the ball!!! We should've went into halftime up 17-0. Ellis fumbling the ball gave NSU momentum going into the half. Then he throws an ill-advised interception which led to NSU points. Coaching has to instill in our QBs that sacks are bad, but a sack is better than a turnover.
We also have to figure out why our offense goes missing. We seem to have a good initial game plan. However, once our opponent adjusts to the initial game plan, it takes us forever to adjust. I love that we come out scoring. I can remember when a lot of our biggest complaints were slow starts on offense, and at times, as a team. If we can figure out how to at least possess the ball when we're not scoring, I'll take that. Our offense can't continue to disappear during the game.
Happy we got the win!!! Didn't think we'd be 4-2 right now, but I think we all see the potential to clean up some things. If we can, we could be looking at a strong finish to the season. Hope the team can go enjoy homecoming!!! Still proud of this team...I just want more for them!
