Just checked. The score in the Southern Mississippi v NSU game is still tied at zero.

I reckon we're about to get our entire backsides whooped. If you give up 41 to a SWAC team in one half of football, you're liable to give up 100 to an FBS team. Y'all hang on 'cause this is gon' be a long season. I'm just glad I hunt to take my mind off of it all.

Just wondering how many L's it will take before there is a change?

After tonight, we will likely be outscored by roughly 130-140ish to 30-40ish in three games, two to peer competition. Let that sink in and stew for a bit. There is a reason there were no interviews with the HC after the Grambling game posted on the athletic website. There are only a couple videos featuring Mississippi native players heading back home to play in Hattiesburg. This has to be exciting for them. I only wish we could compete well for them and their families. I think one can surmise that the powers that be have taken notice of what is happening based on the lack of coverage of those in charge of this debacle.

Jackson State beat Grambling by 42. That's right, 42. We lost to Grambling by 26. That is how low we are right now. I don't know if we were this bad under the Peveto Promise. It's not going to get any better anytime soon. Save your Saturday's. Find a hobby.

SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE WITH ALL THREE ASPECTS OF THE GAME. COACHING AND PLAY CALLING ARE NON EXISTENT. LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER BLOWOUT!

End of first quarter and no first down. Rushing only 11 yards. Passing 4 yards.

To be fair, we haven't had the team to compete with a Sou Miss since 1998 (when we made the semifinals), 2001 (when we beat TCU), 2004/2005 (when we beat App State at home), and 2014 (when we beat La Tech). Expecting to compete with an FBS team with what we've seen the past six or seven years? No way. That said, we should be playing better than this. A lot better. At least the better QB is in the game now. Too little, too late, but get him some reps. Nothing against the other kid. He did his best. Anyone playing for NSU right now is going to have to dig down deep to maintain their drive and composure. Tough times. If we don't beat Lamar next week, we could be looking at a winless season yet again. It's just football, for sure, and there's a lot more in the world to worry about, but we should be better than this. A lot better. The product on the field is inexcusable and it's not the fault of the players.

Tough times for NSU football:
In 10 quarters we have given up 109 points, scored 21 points, committed 12 turnovers, and 28 penalties
Two of these games were against FCS opponents, too. Whew!

In 12 quarters we have given up 158 points and scored 31 points. We have committed 33 penalties and turned the ball over 12 times.
This is an average score of 53 -- 10 in each game, with 11 penalties, and four turnovers. Two of these teams have been peer competition.
Lose to Lamar this weekend, and the chance of going 0-11 increases exponentially. At least keep Clement as the starting QB.
Nothing else needs to be said.
Goodnight.

Glad to see Zach in the game. Not much else to say except it appears the Souldland group as a whole is not real strong which could be an oppotunity to at least build a bit on what we have. I agree, it is now up to good coaching but also leadership both from the coaches and the players or this will go into a bad place quickly.
