Couple of good interceptions and a really lucky break on a fumble that we were able to return for a TD. Defense has really stepped up in the second half, and it looks like the offense has started to find a bit of a groove. Hopefully they can keep it up in the second half.

WIU up 17-14 at halftime

We love to be in the red zone. Our own.
Embrace the pace of the race.

So I’m all for students running our cameras and commentary even though it’s sometime cringe worthy. However, is our student camera crew what the officials use to determine challenges?

It would have been...until the INT.

If it weren't for a few offensive holding calls, we'd have had...what...3 more TDs?

Same old same old. Offensive Line is weak.

The O-line cost us 3 TDs and if it weren’t for those 3 plays we likely win. I hope, unlikely though as our schedule only gets more difficult, that they play better.

I will say, Sampson looked a lot better today than he did at any point last year. He did throw 2 INTs but, overall he just looked better today. (I hope he is okay)

I hope Gavin is okay too.

Idk, while we lost that game because of dumb penalties, I liked the talent that I saw on the field. We need our OL to play better though.

Yeah. #67 needs his hands tied behind his back, it would seem. :cry:

Marked man for sure. After a while, the officials start keying on you.
