I am going to catch crap for this....but I wish Farmer could have been able to be on the field for the seniors.

The fact that he wasn't out there tells you a lot about how "mutual" the decision was. Without being forced out, there's not reason he couldn't have waited until Monday to resign so that he could take part in Senior Day festivities.

I just got off of work.. Listened on radio. Great victory. We overcame coaching errors and prevailed. Jennings played well, its a shame he could not have had time to fully absorb the system. Beating ulmost J C wont be easy. Our new name reference, et all will give them all the motivation they need to try to stop us from a bowl game. Fellas, this next game is THEIR national championship.

Congrats guys. We morphed back into the squad that lost to UCA today and made too many crucial errors, compounded by Hudspeth coaching circles around Anderson again. Full props to Jennings though for giving our defense fits all night.

I really hope we didn't doom ourselves to the disaster that is the Cure Bowl with this performance.

Thank you.

You a class act. We might not agree all the time but that's the greatest part of being a sports fan. With the exception of LSU and this ones for you, Hog fans !!

A lot of things went our way today after the blocked punt. The running game was a disaster, so Jennings had to get it done with his arm. He did just that and avoided mistakes. stAte dropped some passes, a 2 point conversion, threw the pick six. Our defense held enough to get the job done, but all together if you look at the stats, stAte kind of dominated that game. I'm still in awe, but our guys played hard all game and they deserved that one. Well done.

Well, that wasn't a pick six, it was more of a fumble return for a TD.

Eli is our best receiver because he plays the ball better and has the best hands. Stokely hands!

Eli should have been playing in the slot all season.

Those last two comments were posted on RP before the season started.

Yeah, we're extremely disappointed with the coaching staff this season. Especially the offensive side of the ball, there's no excuse for continuing to look this sloppy 11 games into the season. And Anderson's steadfast refusal to put a Kicker or punter on scholarship reared its ugly head today as well.

Honestly, that was the difference in the game. The little things that you guys did right and we didn't. Didn't like the taunting by both teams at the end, but the officiating crew sort of set that up with their complete confusion over that final play.

Oh well, on to a critical basketball game tomorrow. As critical as early season OOC games can be at least.

chiefsfan,
Good luck the rest of the way!

Chiefsfan, nothing against you bud, but I hate A State. Their teams always behave like morons and always have something dirty up their sleeves.. So with all due respect, the Red Wolf Gang can kiss my vermillion & white ___!

Enjoy that L

That's more of this series in general. There's a lot of bad blood on both sides. It's not something specific to just AState, it's both sides.

You really have to understand this series to be able to coach in it.

And no, I won't enjoy the L. I will likely be miserable for the next few days because of this. But it will be more at my own school's team for failing to take advantage of the numerous opportunities we had today. It was a good football game. Yes, there were taunts and hits as usual, but nothing borderline criminal like some of the antics in 2014.

Arkansas State in football is what South Al is for baseball and now softball.

Good gosh, I miss Western Kentucky in basketball.
