Fuck Jones too.

A&M hasn't had the consistent ability to hit big plays on offense since Manziel. 4 and 5 star recruits all over but they just struggle to get big plays.
Think it is mostly they just don't fool anyone. Their tempo doesn't create confusion like it does for other spread/tempo teams. QB play is also massively worse since 2013

From Jake Spavital's wiki page:
Since Spavital was assigned as the full-time offensive coordinator in 2014, the vaunted Aggie offense has regressed each year in overall production, creativity, output, and player development. On October 24, 2015, after the second straight dismal offensive performance by Spavital's unit, Texas A&M lost to Ole Miss in Oxford, Mississippi by a score of 23-3, leading to thousands of Texas A&M fans calling for Spavital's firing.

Okay, Cook's back.
Nevermind. He's getting that mojo back.
Still, some of the playcalling has been shaky. Not much rhythm for the MSU offense.
Where's LJ Scott?

Maybe the game will end 6-3.

I think I saw him in a couple plays in the 1st quarter, but it's mostly been Holmes getting the carries. Maybe not 100% yet? Not sure.

He was out there earlier, seems like it's tje Holmes/London combo tonight.
He never left. Everyone tends to forget his completion percentage isn't great and he throws a lot of 50/50 balls. His YPA and YPC is great though. Just a streaky, clutch QB. Good game so far. I'm not expecting a win, it'd just be nice for it to be close at the end of the game. There's over a dozen potential Husker recruits at that game so I'd like to give them some hope this team isn't too far from decent.

Holy shit. A completion by Jones. It's like seeing a unicorn in the wild.

I think the thing that I dislike most about Spavital is that he tries to dial up the "perfect" play, to his detriment. Whereas before A&M would play with tempo, keeping the same defensive personnel on the field by not having substitutions, now he'll send in a new package that lets the defense reset.
He also gets stuck in trying to use a special package or formation over and over, even when it's clearly not working. How many times did Carson line up directly behind Allen in the Ole Miss game, only to shift next to the qb? Not once was it used without the shift to confuse the defense. How many times did he call plays that were 15 yard out routes, when Allen was clearly not in a rhythm?
He's a coordinator that never seems to make adjustments. It lets the opponent catch on and catch up, or it dooms us to have no chance to compete.

I'm the same way, glad I'm not putting any money down. Minnie looks good enough to finally expose us, Huskers for sure.

Urban is a time traveler. He went to the future and saw what dumb ass JT was going to do. He went back in time and let Jones start as a way to punish JT preemptively.

Cook's like the reception on my tv antenna, usually solid but prone to go on the fritz every so often.
Reilly's pitching a good game and the Huskers are amped. I understand why Corn Nation is freaking out this season but Nebraska'll be fine moving forward.

So he's Doctor Who?

Basically, yes.
God, I'm going to get soooo shit faced in about 10 minutes. Our entire team looks like it doesn't give two shits.
Edit: Fuck it.
Who's got a hot mid major offense? Memphis? Houston? We can steal theirs, right?

Their defense supposedly is good. And Leonard Fournette is.
Other than that I dunno.

I want to vomit, punch something and cry all at once. I just, I don't understand why we turn to shit with CJ out there. I really, really don't.
Yep. Mike probably has one foot off his roof as we speak.
Is anyone good this year?
