Well… at least the media and most people outside of the people on here didn’t have high expectations for us this year. I know everyone gets frustrated with how we play and look out on the field but in general people don’t care about MTSU football. Most alumni will only think about this school when we do something great like beat a Miami, Vanderbilt, Missouri, etc. It’s going to take a while for them to build this thing. It was always going to be a bit of a lost season. Who knows though… maybe they’ll get it together mid season and go on a run. I’m just enjoying the ride for now.

Hopefully they can adjust at the half and have a respectable game. This is terrible.

maybe we can become punter U since we seem to do it so much more than other teams. Could be a selling point to future punter recruits

Grant Chadwick pins Duke inside the ten. He has been stellar since shanking a punt early against Ole Miss

Nick Vattiato is back in

Nick took a late hit and true freshman Roman Gagliano is in. Nick looks to be fine. Roman takes a sack. Nick could be coming in

Well. Looks like for the third weekend in a row I will be moving on to other things while a Derek Mason coached team plays a second half.

I changed the channel when the WVU game came back from a rain delay. Don't regret it in the least.

I refuse to let this MT team stress me and get me pissed like I have in the past. And this year it seems there will be lots of channel changing.

If you have Android and use Chrome, I suggest installing the app as they call it. Essentially a shortcut you can add but super handy.

It truly takes effort to be this bad. We are making Duke look like a Top 10 team

2? 1 is totally in play.

I’m surprised at how bad Duke is and we’re making them look like UGA.

There are some really bad teams in CUSA. There will be a week or two where our opponents gift wrap it for us.

They went over their season scoring average in the first quarter.....

Looking like another 2-10 season. Derek Mason said this is not a rebuild. I'm curious as to why we are so bad then??

Just a terrible team that is not well coached. So far nothing about this coaching staff has impressed me after a third of a season

Dog shit across the board. All 3 phases of the game we are terrible. Coaching is terrible. Administration is terrible. Conference is terrible.

First half offense. Four turnovers.

And aside from the one TD run averaging 2.2 yards per play. But as I said before the game I was not looking forward to watching this offense try to go against Manny Diaz.

Yes, this is a terrible football team. Our games are decided in the first or second quarter.

Come on, roughing the kicker....how many mistakes can there be? Seriously, Duke has only had one drive for a TD, the other 3 were given to them.

Xavier Williams has seen his fair share of action at safety. Expect that to continue

Grant Chadwick with another great punt. Net average on his two punts are 52 yards today. This takes into account the return yardage

Parker Hughes flashes his playmaking, getting in the backfield and kicking the run out. Man, this team has missed that

Ridiculous to have that many fumbles in the first half.
