Can't agree more. Same goes for you folks. All of us underdogs should be rooting for each other, and I do. USM/ECU have been the model that Marshall measured their program against, and continue to strive to be like in many ways. GL to both going forward.

In Monken's days, you could have 500 yards of total offense while the defense hold our opponent to 205 yards total offense, and we get the win...so, what's your point? Stop your bewailing and grumbling like a big baby. Support your damn team and ACCENTUATE THE POSITIVE and stop acting like a simpleton!

pull your head out of your tailpipe, homer. your view of the world would improve.

before you are totally overcome with your own awesomeness as a fan, let me fill you in on something. the uncomfortable fact of the matter is that the breed of fan that is so utterly and completely incapable of applying constructive criticism to the program is almost as responsible for it's collapse as ellis johnson and the cretins that hired him.

that's you. own it. wear it.

now, here's a lollipop. back to BGN for you, where the world is simpler.


*in a few minutes, people are going to start telling everyone how much money they donate to the program; it's the classic BGN defense. as though you can buy tickets "wrong-headedness", and it's all OK.

unfortunately, none of the "circlejerk" animated gifs are likely to pass muster with the mods. so, use your imagination.

Well, I mean we sort of do control who we play. At least 4 games.

Boo.

Damn dude. Life must be really miserable for you right now. After how the past 3 seasons have been and here we are in October and we are 2 wins away from being bowl eligible and you are having the biggest menopause moment in front of all of us. I can't help you man. I assume when we go to a bowl game this year, you won't be going or watching. I assume you'll be at hobby lobby or something because you clearly need a new hobby in your life. An improving USM football team is not helping. Go take the wife to bed, bath, and beyond. Buy a few comforters, some of those foot massage things, a couple of bath salt things, and maybe some of those therapeutic socks. Kick back and watch the golden girls. I'm almost certain some channel will be airing it.

And find some xanax too.

Can you come give a seminar on the Marshall boards too? You'd think we were 1-7 instead of the other way around.

thread title edited to assuage the raging butthurt borne by the fragile sunshine pumpers.

a strong defensive showing. 44 points on 480 yards of offense; much better. 2 TO still isn't what you want to see, but we were +1 in the turnover battle.

Granted none of the turnovers were by the Southern Miss offense.

One of the turnovers was a complete fluke where the ball off of a punt just took a wonky bounce into a blocker and the other was a mishandling of a bouncing punt by Jalen. He had daylight all in front of him, he just got too "cute" with what he was trying to do. If he would have properly handled the punt he would have been gone for his second return of the day.
