Good to see someone other than us having such a tough time stopping the WKU offense. Their record on the season isn't very good, but I don't think their offense has been their problem.

Way to rise up on that last series, Gabe Martin. One man defensive stand!

Disappointed not to see Callaway in there on this series. I think it would be a very good idea to get him a couple of series while the game is competitive, just to get him some game action in case he's needed next week.

Competitive????? If we not careful we could still lose this game. We have no energy right now and Ball State moving the ball pretty well.

TERRIBLE spot on that 4th and 2 play! They were close to the first, I'll give them that, but they gave them an extra yard or more on the spot.

I was by no means implying that the outcome was a foregone conclusion or that it would be any time soon. We've had a problem stepping on teams throats when we get a lead, so this one is a long, long way from being over. I want to see Calloway on the field, but hopefully it doesn't happen because we are trailing late and he's put in out of desperation.

I want to see Calloway too. Knapke is 5 for 11, 30 yards. He can't even connect on the screen pass. Time to pull him. I think he is now 12 for 35 for 104 yards in past 2 games. Not so good

Todd Walker said a few minutes ago that a lot of experts see us ending up in the Boise bowl game.

I hope we end up some place warmer.

Just saying.

And, yes, I'd like to see Calloway, too, but we still have plenty of time to put him in.

If we don't turn things around we could easily finish 7-6 on the season.

BG can blow a lead faster than just about any team out there.

That offsides killed us. Had them sacked on 3rd down and the penalty gives them a new possession. We came out fired up and making plays in the first few minutes, then have shut down on both sides of the ball. Not exactly what you want to see from a division champion in a "tune up" game heading into the conference championship game. #-o
