Does Morstead get hurt?

God no...but I didn't realize he did FGs...sorry...
I think he will hit his characteristic 65+ yard punts when we do punt.
And if he is kicking FGs, then I expect the one I think will happen will be a 45-50 yarder.

He is 5 for 5 on FGs this year.

Cunningham only does kick offs...Morstead punts and kicks field goals and PATs.

I am patently embarrassed...sorry, I guess I was more focused on Ark State than us.

My apologies for my bumble.

I know you guys don't want to hear that a team wasn't 'focused' on you, but I truly believe that was what happened last year. When we played you guys, our QB situation wasn't resolved....and that is where the entire unity of the team starts.

Here are the first 6 games from last year. I included the passing stats to give you an idea of how much time they spent in the game.
During our game with you guys, they were basically even. It wasn't until game 6 that our coaches agreed to stick with one QB and give him time to mature. That is crucial in building confidence.

game 1 Hewitt 7/11, Leonard 4/5
game 2 Hewitt 4/13, Leonard 3/6
game 3 (SMU) Hewitt 7/14, Leonard 6/14
game 4 Hewitt 6/17, Leonard 4/5
game 5 Leonard 13/26, Hewitt 6/10
game 6 Leonard 12/23, Hewitt 0

As to the DB's.....yeah, they didn't get better overnight. But the offense did, and stopped leaving them on the field so long. And they also quit giving them a short field to defend.

With the maturation of the offense, our entire team performed better. Towards the end of the season, our team was plagued with injuries but we were a MUCH better team due to our stability on offense.

Just my opinion. It should be a fun game.

You're right, we don't want to hear that...

Question is will they focus on us this year with Tenn looming next week? Of course same could be said about us...will we be looking ahead to TCU instead of focusing on ASU. In either case it is going to be a good game and should be a fun one to watch.
