If that ever happened that would be insane because you wouldn't have to sub and the OL would start killing people at end of game.

Haha, would be an awesome offense to watch. Idk if anyone could say that offense wasn't fun to watch.

Could you imagine GT at an Oregon pace?!?!

All MVC games involve top 25 teams

SLC Games

X-SFA (3-2) @ Nicholls (1-3)
X-Lamar (1-3) @ Abilene Chrstn (0-5)
Kentucky Wesleyan (-) @ X-Northwestern St (0-4)

They are irrelevant and the flash in the pan we always knew they were.


We do need to take care of business. We can't have another misstep like the SFA game and once again, Sam Houston St. vs. McNeese could he the conference championship if McNeese wants it to be.

I know SFA beat McNeese, but what do y'all think the chances are of the Colonels knocking SFA off tomorrow?

Sorry for the length of the post in advance.

I wanted to post the active leaders in all of these categories. It may help you see where your favorite player may be in terms of career arc. Bolded MVC and SLC guys.
