I'm not sure
if anyone else is paying attention, but EWU is up 21 to 14 on Colorado. Again, EWU is a good football team with a good coach. One of EWU’s TD’s was a Hawkins interception return.
Go Raiders . . .
I have
the box score up right now. I would LOVE for them to beat Colorado. This would definitely help Tech’s win last week.
Being an accountant and famous don't go together. If you're a famous accountant, you probably did something wrong.
Mixed feelings
While I would like to show that EWU is a strong team and that the Tech win was a quality win, I also want the Big Xii to look good. Not sure which way I want this one to go.
OU
Oklahoma is going to win this game because of mistakes by Cincinatti, but the Bearcats are making the Sooner secondary look bad. Not to mention Bradford has not looked very sharp. Could be good news for Tech come November.
A&M
is only up 14-7 towards the end of the 2nd. That would be another great loss too.

Just heard
McGee is out from a shoulder injury earlier in the game.

Goodson went out with a knee injury, too.
Too bad New Mexico’s defense is somehow worse than A&M’s. Also, too bad about that BS roughing the passer call that led to another A&M TD.
After all is said and done, more is said than done.
johnson is playing alright though. still, for what was a really good rushing team last year, have only managed 66 yards
Go Raiders . . .
UNM won that game
Everywhere but the scoreboard. Yards, plays, etc. Just couldn’t get it done. Impressed with the Lobos, or is it just that unimpressive an Aggie squad?
Well I guess
Colorado winning is both good and bad as NM99 posted. The Big 12 getting the win is nice and it also shows that Tech winning by what they did wasn’t such a bad thing after all.

Did anyone
find out if the online broadcast (podcast?) of the Tech game will include sound?

Does anyone know how to launch the online browser
at gametime? I figured you just clicl on the red camera icon, but just wanted to be sure…..I guess I antsy and worried that gametime will get here I couldn’t watch…..that would drive me crazy
The Other "Pirates"
Anyone watching the other “Pirates?” East Carolina is giving West Virgina a beating…..two huge upsets by ECU in two weeks……they are the real deal.
very impressed
with EC, i’m glad that kayakyakr convinced me to put them in the blogpoll top 25.
Go Raiders . . .
ECU
They destroyed West Virgina today. I don’t know if they are just that good or if WV was just off, but ECU did throw WV a beat down.
is everyone
out there going to be screaming at their new coach or wht?
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
Defense should go all out tonite
I hope we sell out tonite and shut down the run and make them throw it. If we do we will win fairly easily
Wreck’em TECH
CU almost blew it.
Had to get a turnover touchdown to pull off the win vs. EWU. Think that does the purposes as stated earlier. XII wins, but Tech looks better for the score in the game last week.
Just tried to launch
the browser for the game…..it re-directed me to the Nevada Wolfpack homepage and asked for my username and password, which are not the same of the u/p I used to get onto the live feed website……WTF? Anyone know whats up?
i bought it through the college sports direct feed. i have been trying to launch it from that, but the game isn’t listed yet.
I bought it
through the same college sports direct feed, and the red camera icon for launching the feed is now working, but its re-directing me to the U of N homepage where my username and password aren’t working. I’m watching from Japan, where I’m showing the game is starting now, right?
this is the
same stuff that used to be CSTV XXL right?
Go Big Red Nebraska!

I think I got it.....
I just logged out and logged back in…..it gave me my account information and had a small link on the upper right that said “media player”….when I cllicked that it launched a media player with a long list of events, but the TTU game isn’t one of them.
yeah, i went ahead and signed up through UNM and i’m about to email the other site to cancel my purchase.
I still
cant get it to work. WTF

hey
if one of you guys gets this, can you do play by play?
it #$)(#)($#)(#$ ‘s me off that there’s a lot of crappy games on today, but not this game.
there ought to be some kind of “Mike Leach Network” or something.
damn it.

Yeah
I went through Direct College Sports and it’s not working

Field Position
Bad decision by coaching staff to not punt from own 30 yard line. Why continually put defense in such a bad position?

This video feed sucks.
First, the CSD account didn’t work, so I had to give $9 more to Nevada’s site to watch. Then, the video buffers more than it actually plays, and it’s one or two MINUTES behind the radio broadcast.
I’m getting my money back from both sites.
After all is said and done, more is said than done.
ha
it is the former CSTV stuff, I bet.
I used it for college baseball last year, and I liked it because there wasn’t much better available, but you better lower your standards.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

i've wasted
so damn much time getting the feed that i have no idea what’s going on.
Go Raiders . . .
yes
wanted to see it. not the same.
man, i’m pissy. we played like shit today.
you guys are going to kick our ass.

YEAAAAAAAAAAA

I don’t really like the gameplans so far this season by leach, bad calls on offense, bad defensive schemes…
This isn’t the team I was hoping for this season.
Hope
They only needed a spark to get started.
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
This is looking
like one of those games where the offense needs a couple quarters to figure out the latest blitz packages that a team is bringing against them
Obviously the biggest thing is a W in this game, but if Harrell wants 6,000 yards, he needs to capitalize against these OOC teams.
given
that it’s some kind of day from hell, just get through the first half.
and get a WIN. screw stats.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
i think
you just heard your key on your oline.
when Harrell spoke to the official. if the dline is making sounds, calls, they’re confusing your oline.
we’ll see if your problems stop now.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

This just in
Harrell on pace to throw 160 yards.
This just in
Does this seem like New Mexico game a few years back?
Let’s avoid anything west of us on a map.
So I was under
the impression that offensive units primarily composed of upperclassmen had an advantage in terms of experience and cohesion
I was under the impression
That we could at least gain yards on a team that has a worse defense than us…
on the upside
the majority of favored teams struggled in the first half today, so hey maybe we’re just part of a trend
defense
is keeping us around
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
So much for all
that talk this week about getting focused, cutting penalties and trimming the mental errors
Did Spike Dykes
take over before the game? Lots of running
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
That's why
we go for it on fourth down
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
Defense
Defense is pretty much sucking a** as well. We are not as good as I think we thought. Through 5 qtrs this year, we’re not impressive
Kansas St
Up 69-7. Baylor up 44-6, kansas 42 points, iowa st. 41, ok st 42, missouri 52, and we are playing against a same caliber defense and can’t do shit.
YO
it’s the first half, relax. man. have a beer.
Go Big Red Nebraska!
Our Cobs Are Bigger Than Yours!
Corn Nation!
True enuff
It is a Leach offense. Once they get the tempo going they will start clicking. Can’t afford to do this against better competition.
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
you're
not playing the suckiest of the sucky teams like many other Big 12 teams.
you’re just playing a usually sucky team.
not a suckiest sucky team.
get it?
Go Big Red Nebraska!

I’m tired of this football. Stresses me out to start the season.
I’m also tired of betting on Tech to cover, and to cover the over.
never bet
on things you don’t control the outcome.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

As long at they
don’t score, I don’t care what they let him do
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
that's what he said

wow
you guys must be behind me.
i must taunt you further.

There's
fifty more yards
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
i think
hale had a pretty nice block as well, kind of like you guys said earlier in the week
Go Raiders . . .
I know that the touchdown should make me happy, but harrell’s lack of ooc td’s is going to kill heisman hopes, when all he is is numbers, haha.
i hate all these rushing touchdowns, but i’ll take them.
Let's worry
about winning the game…he’s not winning the heisman this year unless we go undefeated. Odds of that based on what we’ve seen from our D?
Now we are in business
Just had to find their groove. and gave the defense two minutes of rest…..
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
lots of offense
in this game yall. Don’t blink
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
having all that size in the front four
is really helping us out, that’s the second INT for one of the big boys this year
anyone who
had troubles with the first option and had to sign up with the nevada website, please email me (doubletnation at gmail dot com)
Go Raiders . . .
Not watching live...
…why is Harrell sucking so bad? Dropped passes? Bad throws? Just watching via game tracker.
well
we have before (Mizzou last year) but I prefer not to think about games like that because our game hinges on QB performance
Adjusted, impromptu passing routes are like jazz, it can be beautiful and surprising
and they can also be painfully bad
what?
you guys are ahead, you’re just not ahead a LOT.
settle. settle.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

no one's breaking out the pitcforks and torches
but this is definitely a disappointing first half based on our billing
NM99
what makes you think Tech will pull away based on the first half? Just curious…because we are mighty Tech? : )
It’s easy for a team to come out fired up and play a half. I think our depth will help to pull away. Also, I think they’ll have a talk with the O line about how to pick up the blitz…
Because sometimes Leach faces coaches who aren’t afraid to try new things against him and he has to take some time to find the weaknesses in the defenses. Like TAMU game where they were dropping 8 to 9 in coverage.
It's like a bacon and eggs breakfast. The chicken is involved, but the pig is committed.
because
you have better coaches, and better players than Nevada.
And you have more of them.
And you’re in the Big 12, dammit.
Go Big Red Nebraska!

Before everyone starts jumping off of overpasses
It is not even halftime we are still up. Florida is only up 6 on Miami in the 4th… Oops now they are up 13 but still…
I loved that quote immediately.
Maybe he should tell the offense that.
After all is said and done, more is said than done.
okay -- if anyone
signed up for both webcasts and had to pay twice (like I did) please let me know. I think the guy wants to make it right
Go Raiders . . .
Yeah
I got charged twice, I just checked. What email address should we use?
Being an accountant and famous don't go together. If you're a famous accountant, you probably did something wrong.
Disapointed
I just can’t see how anyone feels this is a top 15 team at this point, that’s all. After 6 qtrs, we have…2 passing TDs. And come on. Nevada? Seriously?
All in all.....
First half assessment…..
Defense has shown huge improvement, Offense looks like moldy bread…….
Just curious
I’m listening on the radio – do we have anyone in the backfield to help pick up the blitz?
