We were saying the same thing with TSU and smoked them. Maybe this team is different. What I would give to get another crack at JMU.
FOOTBALL Middle Tennessee @ #25 Miami (FL), (ACCNetwork), 2:30PM, Saturday, September 24, 2022
- Thread starter SpaceRaider
- Start date
JMU just punched App State in the chops, so maybe they're decent.
The story of the program under Stockstill is squandered opportunity and one step forward, one step backwards.
I feel like we took a big step forward yesterday, but yesterday is over. It won't matter one bit what happened yesterday if we flop on Friday.
Best moment from last nights game was the ACC announcer's high pitched screaming yelp during the 98 yard bomb to DJ.
Hope folks turn out for Friday's Blackout game against UTSA. It certainly seems like there is a lot of student energy on campus now. It has been years since I actually went to an MT football game (pre-COVID, I think) but that will change this week.
The U fans are not happy...

I paraphrase a Miami fan’s comment on FB “that Manny teed this up for Stock with a depleted roster for Christobal and that Christobal just stayed true to doing what Christobal does……lose to Rick Stockstill.” I think Predarat saw this game as Wiley would say…. “easy money”. Congrats to all. Team, Coaches, Fans and Predarat. 😂😂"MTSU is now 3-0 all-time against Miami, with the other wins coming in 1931 and 1932. The Hurricanes never held the lead in any of those games."

In sports, you see this all the time: a higher rated, or equal, team plays conservatively. They are so passive that the opponent wins the match if they play aggressively.
Rick's “play not to lose” style has crippled the Blue Raiders for the better part of 17 years. It's refreshing to see aggressive ball.

Paul Finebaum calls Miami 'college football's greatest fraud' after MTSU loss
Paul Finebaum didn't mince words when it came to Miami after the Hurricanes suffered a mind-blowing defeat to MTSU on Saturday.

Miami takes the second worst loss in program history on Saturday afternoon as MTSU whooped the 25th ranked ‘Canes on Miami’s home turf.

Frustrating nobody wants to give MT any credit. All the talk is about how bad Miami is. I'll agree they are clearly not a top 25 team or even a top 50 team. But it's Miami with a roster stocked full of 4 star players, big money boosters, high paid coaching staff, and one of the richest histories in college football.
This wasn't a fluke. We beat them wire-to-wire and we were the better team in every phase of the game except special teams. We were stronger, faster, tougher, mentally sharper, and just better. We controlled the LOS. We had the better QB. Our WR's won their match up's and made huge plays. Our RB's ran down hill and won on contact.
Hopefully this team doesn't rest on it's accomplishments and continues to play with a chip on their shoulder. I could easily see us losing the next 4 games if the team doesn't play with the swagger and intensity it has the last 3 weeks.

It's like Stockstill flipped a switch in terms of aggressiveness. It's great to see. Also he was spot on in the post-game presser: MT kicked UM's butts in every aspect of the game. It wasn't a fluke, it was a beatdown.
What could've been with Jalon Daniels. (https://middletennessee.rivals.com/news/jalon-daniels-pledges-to-mtsu)
I agree. He looks good. Will have a chance to play on Sundays if he keeps it up.

MTSU Had More 'Toughness' Than Miami
Miami was not as tough as Middle Tennessee State, according to Middle Tennessee State head coach Rick Stockstill.

It wasn't just students. A few of us old timers stayed up past our bedtimes and greeted the team as they rolled in at midnight. Gotta admit, hearing those sirens from the approaching police escort and seeing those busses roll in with horns honking was well worth it!

This came from my daughter from class on campus this morning. My same daughter who does not care for football at all. So you know this is buzzing around campus, students, internet et al.
OK, I am not a serious gambler at all and don't really understand the numbers other than traditional point spreads. Does that mean dude just hit for $37K? If so, hopefully a couple grand go towards #BuildBlue
One other thing. We looked sharp on tv. Kinda looked like the cowboys out there.
