We aren't going to win many games without a run game and I don't believe the offensive line will improve enough to start opening holes for these guys. Abraham is going to have to do everything himself again.
You can look at the players just standing next to each other between plays and see which program places value on recruiting linemen.

RE: first game of 2020
We shouldn't run the ball at all. Pass it every down. The run plays are a wasted down.

RE: first game of 2020
Is that punter really the best we have? I hope he isn't on scholarship.

We haven’t yet confirmed tonight if South has one at all.

Multiple times per game, we’re too busy protesting the officiating to get ready for the next play.

We have been getting screwed.
4th down gave them a 1st
Touchdown lateral
Pass Interference twice holding Jones
QB backwards pass. Was a fumble

What a waste bringing in Whatley. Let Jack throw it every play.

RE: first game of 2020
We are getting out butts kicked by a team that is in direct competition with us in coastal and regional recruiting. This is pathetic and hopson once again makes zero adjustments at halftime. This is an absolute cluster of a coaching job.

We should really consider shutting it down & returning as a start-up program in 2025.

Make the next play, and it no longer matters.
Officials are human, and many frankly suck donkey balls. Bad calls are part of the game. If you can’t win unless the refs get everything right, you’re well nigh f***ed.

RE: first game of 2020
Why are the DBs playing so far off the receivers? You would think we are going against Tom Brady.

RE: first game of 2020
well, at least we've been social distancing for over a hunert years, so we got that right.
Now we are the beeatches of Tulane, South Alabumble, Troy, , UAB, NE Louisiana, La Tech and whomever else plays football within 150 miles of us. Great job USM administration!

RE: first game of 2020
The most shocking part is that anyone’s surprised by what we saw tonight. Our talent level is mid 1-AA if you look solely at who our players had offers from. Hopson sees USM as Alcorn. Simple as that. That’s why we have zero preparedness, zero discipline, and zero coaching, all expectations of a SWAC school.

I want to say the one we had prior to that one wasn’t bad, but it’s really all been downhill since “Freeing the power of the individual.”

I’m a lot of things right now, but surprised is not one of them.
I’m pretty much on board with whatever we have to suffer through to get Hopson TFO of here ASAP.

RE: first game of 2020
Our last 4 games:
Lost to Western Kentucky 28-10
Lost to Florida Atlantic 34-17
Lost to Tulane 30-13 (after being up13-0)
Lost to South Alabama 32-21 (USA did not punt)
Hopson is pretty much Ellis Johnson at this point. Yeah, I said it.
