He's a very highly thought of QB prospect. And from what I've seen flipping back and forth today has an insane amount of talent in that arm along with a nice athlete to move a little.

Sorry...not BG Orange & Brown, Cleveland Orange & Brown :)

Yeah that hurt. We'll improve from this no doubt. Few quick post game thoughts ....
1. Our defense is good against MAC offenses. Very good for that matter. It is not built to go up against big physical receivers.
2. Matt Schilz just led a great drive that still didn't quite score. I'm happy and will remain to be happy with Johnson at QB.
3. Gallon had a good game.
4. I would like to see Fred Coppet get in more than just the fourth quarter.
5. Lots of self inflicted wounds. Could have been up at halftime. If they're going to make dumb mistakes, get them out in non conf play.
6. Haven't yet beaten a BCS team in Clawson's tenure. I sure hope Mississippi State is in for a shocker.
7. I thought for sure we would win the next three no problem. I'm not worried about two of them but Akron ... well ... about them ...
8. Quit whining Globe. :D

Extremely disappointing in terms of looking for national prominence, but as far the MAC goes this means nothing. We have an excellent shot at MAC champs.

We moved the ball but offense looked like it's old stalling self. The defense still isn't athletic enough to stop teams like this but I pretty much knew that by the way Kent shredded them in the first half last week.

I think someone else already said it but we should have been running the ball early on. They were giving us short passes and yet we kept throwing deep. Indiana is clearly better but not 42-10 better. Very disappointing.

We saw the 2010-2012 Falcons today. This tells me that although Clawson is a good coach, I don't think he's ready for the next level yet. Had a chance to at least be tied at half and the game fell apart from there. This game should hopefully galvanize the rest of the team for the season. However, everyone knows now to beat BG, go no huddle and air it out.

Seven points of whining and then the eighth calls out someone else for whining. :wink:

Aside from Gabe Martin also going out with an injury, I saw Matt Johnson and Fred Coppet also went down and came out. Hope to God all three are okay after this disaster.
GO BG!!!

9. Points 1 - 7 do not constitute whining.
10. Point 8 was originally not included. Original submission included 1 - 7, then posted and saw a whining post and put point 8 in as a joke. :D
11. Beat the f**k out of Murray State!

It's not a threat. Just a something I noticed. My desire to pay attention fades a bit each year. It was at an all time low to Start this year.

12. We better beat Murray state. Couldn't come at a better time after that debacle killed our entire momentum from two solid first games.
