Indeed!

How about shades of DICKIE MAEGLE?!

The single game records are in jeopardy… and I don’t think Maegle even had 3 runs from 50+ out in his historic Cotton Bowl…

Yup. Moegle’s 3TDs that day came from 74, 95, and 37.

265 yards on 11 carries in the 28-6 win over Alabama

Gabe has 191 on 7 carries and 3 TDs at the half

If we lose by 2….ugh

All of our points are from fluke busts, this is sad.

Fluke busts? Seriously? Really nice blocking to set Ocha free. Clearly, we scouted the Army-FAU game in which the Army QB ran wild on keepers.

Yeah. When It keeps happening, it's not a fluke.

IAC, isn't the point of the option to make defenders make mistakes?

Gael's a gamer, son! He's quicker.

Zero yards passing.

0-1


At least the one attempt was to a tight end.

Irrespective of how the final score ends up, Ochoa has seemed to show he's the better option for the option...as long as he's the one taking the option himself...to the house...because, really, what's our other option at this point?

Brown at wingback - if he's willing.

That'd be at the top of my list, yeah....

Agree. But I don't think Ochoa has nailed down a starting spot yet...at least, not for this year. Excited to think about the competition next year between Ochoa and Wilhelm.

If we fire anybody, it should be the ST coach. It looks like the player who blocked the kick was unblocked.

Nope, the fourth Rice TD that glorious day was provided by Buddy Grantham from 7 yards out.

I meant to include the Wikipedia link in my earlier post…

Love what I’ve seen from Gael. I’m hoping that because he’s not coming from Miami / UCF, he doesn’t command much NIL next year and we can surround him with more weapons (re: depth)

Hope he can end the game strong!

Not sure what’s worse - our defense or Republican PAC ads

Gael’s on pace to break both of Maegle’s Single Game cotton bowl records, he’s averaging 27.3 yards as well.

Technically he’s also on pace at halftime to catch Charles Ross’ 5 rushing TD record as well.

And we might need 6 rushing TDs from Ochoa to catch FaU. 21-30 now(!)

Another fluke. 28-30

I am hoping we can keep on fluking our way to a win.

Go (Flying) Owls!

Touchdown Owls! 28-30, FAU

41-yard cut-back TD run by Mosey!! WooHOO!!

"The play looked dead, and then it wasn't."

28-30. 11:49 left in 3Q.

Do you think the FAU defense is good? Probably the worst I’ve seen in the American.
