You got that wrong, Feet. You've sucked before, you suck now and you will suck in the future. Dumb S, you know nothing about football but I'll bet you know a lot about purses.

The thing I have noticed about Aaron Jones is that he has amazing balance. He gets hit and keeps his balance, which is why he gets so many yards after contact.

I just don't understand why the miners didn't run the ball in that last series. Jones was running wild and then you start throwing the ball and get zilch. Do what you do best and I think the miners could have pulled off the upset. Oh well, hindsight is always a _itch.

If I had it guess, it might be that we only had one time out remaining and they were trying to manage the clock.

I was a head football coach for ten years. I even turned down an offer to coach high school. The comment was just a joke. Utep, is improving. Questionable play calling down the stretch though.

I watched Coach Kugler's press conference. He said that he didn't think we could get into the end zone running the ball, so we went with the pass. I don't know how much of that was Monday morning quarterbacking. But, they should realize that, even with no timeouts, 2 and a half minutes is an eternity in college football with the clock stopping on 1st downs. Especially if you only have to go 30 yards. I think they just kind of panicked a little bit.

It hurts because he also said that we would have run the ball if we hadn't missed that extra point. We probably win the game if that's the case.

It's the one thing I find wrong with this style of offense. It's great as long as you stay ahead. Tough to win however from behind.

I think Kugler is just providing cover for his OC. I can't see any coach with a solid running game going and almost no passing game would do what UTEP did that last 2.5 minutes.
