aspects coaches coming conference game nature physical reduction since strong takes throwing
It's been coming for a while since the reduction of scholarships. This conference has a very strong sense of itself, because of the coaches who have been here for a long time. The nature of the game now, especially in the west, is the throwing game. It's a game of space, which takes some of the physical aspects out of it.
offense run team
They want to run the ball. They've got a nice-looking quarterback (senior Zeke Dixon), but this is a team that's a lot more conservative on offense than it is on defense.
alive drive good kept minutes wasted
They were there. They were disappointed. We wanted to get to single-digits with minutes left. If we could have just kept the drive alive ... It was a wasted opportunity. It was a good game, but a wasted opportunity.

It's been so long since we've won. We've got to get back on the winning track.

I've known E.J. since he was knee-high to a grasshopper. I've stayed in touch with Dave and seen E.J. grow into a fine young man with an excellent feel for coaching.

Stephen F. Austin insists on loading the box and blitzing, they absolutely insist on it.
ball ends grow pass protection run throwing tight until
I really don't know if we're be able to run the ball real well until our tight ends grow up a little bit. Until then, pass protection and throwing the ball is what we're going to be about.
against giant loss whether
Whether it's against a giant or against a pip-squeak, a loss is a loss, and so there is no way around it. We let a giant off the hook.

In six years, that's our best home performance. ... This is the best game we've played at home, top to bottom, inside-outside.
again arrogance challenge defense defensive game good great guys last lined receiving week
This will be good challenge for our defense and a great challenge for our offense. (The Jacks) have got a defensive arrogance about them. Last week on the very first play of the game they lined up with all 11 guys at the line of scrimmage. ... The onus will again be on our receiving group.
