FOOTBALL Middle Tennessee (4-4, 1-3) @ Louisiana Tech (2-6, 1-3), 2PM, Saturday, November 5, 2022

[MT Glenn]

Cunningham 5 for 5 on that drive.

 

[ewglenn]

Needed that one

 

[JohnDavidBlue]

Not a bad way to end the half. Let’s make a big 2nd.
I just had a memory …
Oct 7 2000, I rushed the field and brought down a goalpost at Floyd when we beat LA tech for our first 1-a win as 1-a. There was around 11k there in attendance.

So, if Jalen fair catches and we kick a FG on the 4th down, we'd be down by 3. We are lucky to be down only 6. That last drive was very important. We are moving the ball just fine. We just have to be smarter. I'm liking the playcalling. We just have to stop with the penalties and dumb mistakes.

[blueraiderJT]

awesome start. Sheesh.

 

[blueraiderJT]

traded pick for a pick. I'll take it

 

[SpaceRaider]

Another Cunningham INT Pick six for LT

34-21

 

[blueraiderJT]

and........ I'm out.

 

[SpaceRaider]

And another Cunningham INT at the 5yd line returned to midfield. That's his third interception of the 3rd quarter.

 

[tyler90wm]

Is Gathings out? I've not seen him today

 

[SpaceRaider]

MT punt blocked

LT ball deep in MT territory (13 yd line)

 

[SpaceRaider]

MT is a F'n turnover machine and as I am typing this a psa with stockstill talking about littering,,,,

 

[SpaceRaider]

LT TD pass called back due to a penalty

 

[SpaceRaider]

LT FG is good.

LT 37
MT 21

 

[Hop45]

We’re doing this to ourselves, turnovers, blown coverages, penalties, etc.

That's called "coaching".

 

[SpaceRaider]

Vattiato in

MT fumble recovered by LT

 

[SpaceRaider]

Why are we wasting money on the BoB traveling to Ruston???

 

[MidTennMtneer]

And another Cunningham INT at the 5yd line returned to midfield. That's his third interception of the 3rd quarter.

His QB rating for the season heading in to this game...54.5

13td to 5int. Gonna be worse now.

 

[SpaceRaider]

Ferguson sacks LT qb

 

[SpaceRaider]

LT FG is good

40-21

 

[arg3b]

Don’t worry fellas. Only 6, possibly more, seasons

 

[SpaceRaider]

This quarter is quite possibly the worst 15 minutes of Blue Raider football in my half century of fandom

3 ints, a fumble, and a blocked punt.

 

[SpaceRaider]

Cunningham going to locker room from the tent

 

[Hop45]

Boys and girls, it's been fun, but I am officially not posting on any football related threads until we have a new coaching staff. Tired of the same, predictable mistakes game in and game out. We need a staff with some fire in their belly and can coach these kids better than the staff we have right now. Unless it is to pop in for a quick #FireStock, I'm done. See y'all in the hoops threads.

 

[SpaceRaider]

Vattiato back in

 

[MT Glenn]

La Tech had more points than yards in the 3rd quarter.

Coach .500 enjoys being serenaded while watching the squad get buried on the road?

 

[ewglenn]

I’m starting to wonder if we even get bowl eligible. This is sad.

 

[MTTim]

Clearly MT didn't come ready to play on offense or defense. !st year tech coach against a 17 year head coach

CRS

He still has a chance at "bowl eligible" to get an extension to the year 2050.

 

[MTLynn]

I don't want them to win another game this year. I WANT stuckstill gone.

 

[MTTim]

I don't want them to win another game this year. I WANT stuckstill gone.

Sadly losing every game would not invoke a change. He's here until he wants to leave.

 

[MidTennMtneer]

Bingo. Best we can push/hope for is staff changes, and as the past shows, I wouldn't hope too much on that one either.

 

[arg3b]

I agree. Nothing against the current players, as it’s not their fault. I want to see this program win conference titles and everything that comes with being a good to great program

 

[MT Glenn]

We just got dominated by a 2-6 football team? Every time I think I'm in the acceptance phase, they piss me off even more. 2 and frigging 6!

And a 1st year, period, not just as this school, full-time head coach.

 

[SpaceRaider]

FINAL

40-24

 

[MT Glenn]

We can still reach the hump.

[SpaceRaider]

How many times did #55 get called out on penalties today. There was at least one time when I saw a flag that I said to myself that is on #55

I know his holding brought that TD back and the very next play he was called for a false start.
