Chattanooga at Georgia Southern

[chattanoogamocs]

T-minus 75 minutes to kickoff.

Pre-game show is awesome...Julia Childs kitchen! (seriously, I couldn't make this ***** up if I tried)

[chattanoogamocs]

Julia just said she is picking the Mocs in an upset. The dude cooking with her just said "not so fast my friend" and put on an Eagle mascot head.

[chattanoogamocs]

Bunch of GSU fans going crazy outside the windows of Julia's kitchen...I don't see how they can concentrate on cooking with all the racket going on (#they're pros)

[Skjellyfetti]

My pre-game is Riverdance: Live from Beijing.

No joke.

[chattanoogamocs]

Interesting...where the SoCon's game would normally be, is now inhabited by a C-USA/SEC game (Mississippi State at UAB)...more proof of the fact that the SoCon had no chance in hell of keeping that spot...SportSouth jacked the price (more than double) to telecast games because they wanted themselves rid of the SoCon. And honestly, I don't blame them, they are a business and if they can make more money, more power to them. Sucks for the SoCon though. Exciting matchup (cough)...3-0 UAB in the 3rd

[dgtw]

Hey, who better to prepare your tailgate meal than one of the country's most famous chefs?


Despite the SoCon having a team in the Birmingham area, the local PBS affiliate does not carry the SoCon package.

[ASU_MBA]

Did someone say Ga. Southern did not have a fumble problem. That was the 16th of the season. just sayin

[Skjellyfetti]

Chattanoog's offense... especially the o-line... HAS to do better.

C'mon Mocs!

[ASU_MBA]

Russell is gonna destroy our Oline. That dude is simply a beast.

[gomocs82]

I am afraid this year is on the job training for the Mocs OL. Very young and lack in-game college exp

[Skjellyfetti]

I am afraid this year is on the job training for the Mocs OL. Very young and lack in-game college exp

App fans can definitely relate, unfortunately.

[ASU_MBA]

No way Chatty can run on Southern. Ain't gonna happen.

[ASU_MBA]

I am afraid this year is on the job training for the Mocs OL. Very young and lack in-game college exp
I know the feeling.

[gomocs82]

Have to try to run...at least to keep Eagles honest

[ASU_MBA]

Bradford is a pretty decent punter.

[ASU_MBA]

Have to try to run...at least to keep Eagles honest

I agree, I wish you guys could but that Dline is probably the best in FCS hands down.

[ASU_MBA]

These fumbles will cost Ga. Southern a game this year, a la Delaware last year. Perhaps today is the day. Chatty O gotta step up.

[gomocs82]

Bradford tets the ball off quicker than regular punter...threat to fake and run on short 4th downs

[ASU_MBA]

30 yards of penalties in one drive.

[ASU_MBA]

Robinson experiment just lost the ball in the red zone.

[gomocs82]

Yeah..but I would like to see a little more of him the rest of the season. I think BJ was a little hobbled (ankle) coming into the game

[Reign of Terrier]

7-0 GSU

[gomocs82]

Coleman hurt? With Nichols in that is my suspecion

[ASU_MBA]

Is Coleman hurt or something? I don't get the QB musical chairs. Russell two sacks already.

[Skjellyfetti]

Coleman has to be hurt. This game is going to get ugly pretty fast, I think. :(

[ASU_MBA]

Coleman has to be hurt. This game is going to get ugly pretty fast, I think. :(

I agree, that red zone fumble really hurt. Chatty does not have the O to capitalize on their D. Kinda like App this year.

[hapapp]

No chance without Coleman.

[gomocs82]

Regardless of fumble, I would prefer Robinson over Nichols as he might add a dimension with his legs.

[hapapp]

Wow, Mocs can't tackle.

[AppChicago]

14-0, GSU on top.

[ASU_MBA]

The Ga. Southern O looks more complex this year, I guess a more open playbook with a year of the option under the belt. More shotgun option plays than I remember last year.

[ASU_MBA]

No chance without Coleman.

No Chance regardless, the Southern Dline is unblockable today.

[introvertedGSUfan]

Good night, JJ made a man's TD after that catch.

[gomocs82]

Robinson is a look at UTCs offense next year...the QB we signed 2011 (Hueman's son) is a mobile QB like Robinson.

[GSU1-A]

Southern needs to wake up! Here comes our poor pass defense!

[Skjellyfetti]

Whoa!! I like this Robinson fella.

Ain't over yet.

[introvertedGSUfan]

Bleh, knee looked like it was down. That Bradford fella seems pretty good.

[ASU_MBA]

Robinson might be a good one in a year. Nice play.

[ASU_MBA]

Helluva Throw by Robinson. Chatty inside the 10.

[Skjellyfetti]

xeekx

TD Mocs!

Pressure back on Georgia Southern.

[hapapp]

Robinson is the better choice at QB at this point.

[ASU_MBA]

14-7 Ga. Southern

Robinson can play.

[introvertedGSUfan]

I don't like that guy very much.

[gomocs82]

Dang...no D on this drive...63 yds in 1:23

[Milktruck74]

LOL ... the comentator just called them Georgia State.....HAHAHAHAH

[introvertedGSUfan]

Hellaciously quick first half. It was approximately an hour and twenty minutes.

[Reign of Terrier]

Hellaciously quick first half. It was approximately an hour and twenty minutes.

Wofford and the Citadel was less than an hour and 10 (le gasp)

[seantaylor]

Offense is sloppy as hell. I hate the shotgun formations. Great job to answer the score. D will make adjustments at half and come out and shut this QB down. Brent Russell is the fking man.

[dgtw]

Right now there is a gardening show on.


Edit.....I just looked at your link and saw the station it is on. Its not the PBS channel, that's why I didn't see it. But it is on the MyTV affiliate and I can see the game. Thanks!!!

[Cocky]

Its on 68 in the Ham

[asumike83]

Unrelated SoCon note: Samford just defeated Furman 26-21 in Greenville, bit of a surprise there. The conference looks to be as deep as it has been in a while.

[introvertedGSUfan]

Samford, as obviously GSU knows, is quite scrappy. It was nice to get that game out of the way at the beginning of the year for us.

[ASU_MBA]

Coleman out for the game

[Milktruck74]

Tyson, Greene, Robinson...I like the future of our O.

[ASU_MBA]

Robinson is opening up this offense.

[Milktruck74]

Oh and Ron Moore, too!!!

[Terrierforlife]

Mocs score 21-14 GSU. Uh Oh!!!!!!!

[ASU_MBA]

21-14 Ga. Southern.

Robinson is probably better than Coleman right now because he can escape pressure and make plays with his legs.

[Terrierforlife]

Momentum shifting!!! Fake punt????????????????

[ASU_MBA]

Nice stop Chatty

[Terrierforlife]

GSU's left defensive end is killing them by losing contain. Better coach them up!

[ASU_MBA]

I like this Robinson kid.

[ASU_MBA]

Just showed his freshman-ness.

[hapapp]

Robinson's inexperience on that play.

[Terrierforlife]

GSU needs to just play sound D and get the win.

[introvertedGSUfan]

Momentum shifting!!! Fake punt????????????????

Nope, LaRon Scott I-N-T.

[ASU_MBA]

That looked like a Presley bomb. just throw it and maybe someone will catch it.

[Reign of Terrier]

Robinson seems to be a better QB for Chatty as they can't protect Coleman. Robinson's ability to scramble somewhat neutralizes that weakness. Chatty scares me again

[Terrierforlife]

time for trick plays UTC

[Skjellyfetti]

Beautiful call there, Huesman!!

Let's go, Mocs!!

[Skjellyfetti]

TOOOOOOOOOOOOCHDOWN MOCCANOOGAS!!!!

[Terrierforlife]

WOW!!!!!!!21-21

[Terrierforlife]

Huesman is to be commended!

[Reign of Terrier]

Chatty scares me again. It's going to be hard to scheme against both Coleman and Robinson

[ASU_MBA]

Wow this new Chatty O with a mobile QB is exciting.

[Terrierforlife]

Southern is due a fumble.

[Terrierforlife]

Speed kills!

[ASU_MBA]

Come on D. geez

[introvertedGSUfan]

Southern is due a fumble.

Some one doesn't like GSU.

[Skjellyfetti]

Noone likes GSU.

FIFY.

;)

[introvertedGSUfan]

Well that's not very nice. :(

[ASU_MBA]

Robinson has to throw it or game over.

[Terrierforlife]

Some one doesn't like GSU.

I'm a Terrier. Need I say more.

[Skjellyfetti]

WOW! He ALMOST broke that!!

[Terrierforlife]

The refs have got to call offsides on GSU's D line at some point.

[Skjellyfetti]

Ok.

Well. Georgia Southern's defense looks soft now. I can't believe Chattanooga is running it on them like this.

[Terrierforlife]

WOW!

[Skjellyfetti]

They gonna go for 2?

[Terrierforlife]

I know GSU hadn't seen this kid, but come on. Time to play like #1!

[TwoFeathers]

Robinson is sick! Great game. Win or lose, much respect to the Mocs.

[ASU_MBA]

Going for two? Huesman has balls

[Reign of Terrier]

yep....Huesman should go for one for once

[Terrierforlife]

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TwoFeathers]

Here goes...

[boonegoon]

I'm torn here. Kind of pulling for UTC since chattownmocs has disappeared. Wanting GSU to lose.

[TwoFeathers]

Not sure about this...

[Reign of Terrier]

dumb dumb dumb dumb call. No. Chatty has a legit team and should go for 2 in a situation like this.

[introvertedGSUfan]

Ugh, this team has a lot of work to do. Thankfully they just won the game right there. At least you know Monken will work these guys to death. I'm sure the Terrier fans here are quite happy that the #1 team looks human and probably are notching a W on November 12.

[TwoFeathers]

That dude was open on the right... just needed to toss it!

[ASU_MBA]

At least the 3rd game Huesman loses because of a failed 2

[Terrierforlife]

Huesman has a serious pair!!

[Skjellyfetti]

Well... hell of an effort, Chattanooga.

Georgia Southern will lose to Wofford and/or App State.

[boonegoon]

IF this stands, 3 losses by a total of 4 points. Oooh.

[Terrierforlife]

That dude was open on the right... just needed to toss it!

He was.

[paward]

Coach Huseman, I know you are a good coach but............Come On Man!

[TwoFeathers]

The Mocs have played well enough for chattownmocs to come out of exile.

[Terrierforlife]

Good win GSU! Good effort Mocs!

[ASU_MBA]

Nooga is probably done for the year with 4 loses and Wofford still ahead. They will be lucky to be 7-4

[TwoFeathers]

Well... hell of an effort, Chattanooga.

Georgia Southern will lose to Wofford and/or App State.

Wofford will be tough. Don't think App can beat them this year.

[Reign of Terrier]

Chattanooga scares me, and the Socon is a tough read. I think Wofford may be a smidge better than GSU but I don't know, Georgia Southern has a lotttt of speed on offense.

[TwoFeathers]

Congrats Eagles... off to watch the Tribe vs. Delaware...

[introvertedGSUfan]

Chattanooga scares me, and the Socon is a tough read. I think Wofford may be a smidge better than GSU but I don't know, Georgia Southern has a lotttt of speed on offense.

Wofford is easily the toughest game this year for GSU, excluding Alabama. As long as we can grab a win against you or Appy, then I'll be a very happy fan. I'd love to see a SoCon title, but having Tusculum on our schedule gives incredibly little room for error.

[seantaylor]

We'll take it. I'm as big as a Monken fan as there is, but that was the worst coached game in a long time. The fake punt was a terrible call. Giving the fake punt up to a WR was even worse. No defensive adjustments at half. 5-0.

[BlueHen86]

Chattanooga is the ultimate choke team.

[App-a-latch-un]

WOW! Hell of a game. Can't imagine what it's like to be a Nooga fan. Best 0-3 in conference team ever. SOCON IS NAAAAAAAASTY!

[AppChicago]

If you're Chatty, you've gotta hate that 27-28 score.

Nice effort, UTC.

[Terrierforlife]

Chattanooga is the ultimate choke team.

No choke today. They clawed and scratched.

[Blueandwhitefightfight]

We looked like crap today. At times we looked great on defense. Overall we looked bad. Offense sure wasn't clicking like it usually is.

Hats off to UTC and that Robinson fellow. I'm not looking forward to dealing with him for the next few years.

[Skjellyfetti]

No choke today. They clawed and scratched.

Yeah, I agree. I thought they would get run off the field when they got down 14-0 and their star QB got knocked out of the game.

I couldn't have been more wrong... they fought back hard.

[App-a-latch-un]

We looked like crap today. At times we looked great on defense. Overall we looked bad. Offense sure wasn't clicking like it usually is.

Hats off to UTC and that Robinson fellow. I'm not looking forward to dealing with him for the next few years.

Didn't look like crap to me, looked like a hard fought game between two teams. Glad to have escaped with a win against UTC. See you BLACK SATURDAY to finish what UTC couldn't.

[Milktruck74]

Nobody likes a loss, and there really isn't such thing as a moral victory....but I like our future. in 2012 we have to replace BJ (Robinson) and Bradford (Moore) on the O and Consiglio (Dothard) Lewis-Harr (Wise) on D.....

THe future is bright at Chattanooga. Win out and we are in.

[oldsouthernman]

Chattanooga is the ultimate choke team.

And you are a dumbass. Playing the number one team on the road with a freshman QB to the wire is not choking. We are playing well over 50% fresh and sophs and are in the first year without scholly and time restrictions due to APR. We will be a force in the years to come without question. The talent level of the kids Russ is bringing in is very high. I am very disappointed that we did not win but so proud of our boys effort and determination. Go Mocs!!

[seantaylor]

GSU is really missing McKinnon. When his hand heals, he really needs to get some more looks at QB. Jaybo is a fumble machine, and cannot make the big play.

[Milktruck74]

Concur. Mocs fans probably feel like us Carolina Panthers fans at this point. Losing never felt so good.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

If Coleman had played the entire game, I think we would have smoked Chatty. I didn't think there was any way we'd stop that 2PC.

And if that is how we handle Richardson then we could be in trouble against Presley and App.

CORRECTION: Robinson

[Skjellyfetti]

And if that is how we handle Richardson then we could be in trouble against Presley and App.

Yeah, I was thinking this and getting pretty hopeful watching the game. But, it's tough to plan all week to tee off on a nonmobile QB with a weak offensive line... and then have to be confronted with a mobile QB all of a sudden. Tough transition in the middle of the game.

[Reign of Terrier]

Has GSU played a team with a notable rushing game? Chatty finally established on and it seemed to give GSU fits. On the top of my head Tusculum, Elon, Samford, and western aren't really known for the rushing games. GSU has a stout defense, no question, but this was the first time any team ran the ball on them. Didn't a DE get injured earlier this season? I can't wait for us to play GSU.

[GATA]

GSU is really missing McKinnon. When his hand heals, he really needs to get some more looks at QB. Jaybo is a fumble machine, and cannot make the big play.

NEWSFLASH: Mckinnon can't throw for **** and Robert Brown is the REAL fumble machine.

Samford is about the only team before Chatty with a legit history of rushing. Chris Evans ran for alot of yards the past few years for them.

Like you would ****ing know. You've always been clueless when it comes to X's and O's. You once used the term "zone read draw"

[Reign of Terrier]

Samford is about the only team before Chatty with a legit history of rushing. Chris Evans ran for alot of yards the past few years for them.

yes, but since the playbook change they've been inefficient. Wofford held them to under 40 yards rushing

5 weeks my friend.

Congrats to the Eagles on winning the nailbiter!xthumbsupx

5 weeks my friend.

Can't wait!

[seantaylor]

NEWSFLASH: Mckinnon can't throw for **** and Robert Brown is the REAL fumble machine.

Newsflash, neither can Jaybo. Jaybo has fumbled a crazy amount of times this season. He gets a lot of them back, but they are drive killers.

[eaglesrback]

WOW, What a great ballgame! GATA!good to come out of this one with a w.

[BlueHenSinfonian]

Wow, congrats to GaSou, but Huesman gave y'all a major gift. What a ridiculous call to go for 2 instead of hitting the PAT and going into overtime with momentum.

[The Eagle's Cliff]

Just got back. Congrats to the Mocs on making a game of it. Jaybo is slow enough when healthy, but his knee injury makes him move like molasses. These last two games remind me of last year's injury stretch which also included Chattanooga. Glad to escape with a win no matter how ugly.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Wow, congrats to GaSou, but Huesman gave y'all a major gift. What a ridiculous call to go for 2 instead of hitting the PAT and going into overtime with momentum.

You kidding? Chatty was running at will through the whole second half. Why not go for it?

[GATA]

You kidding? Chatty was running at will through the whole second half. Why not go for it?

I'm never gonna understand this, "let's tie it and play for overtime" nonsense people spew.

It's a loser mentality. Execute a play from two yards out and win the ****ing game.

[hapapp]

Though, his record going for two has been pretty dismissal. Two years in a row he has failed to convert against ASU.

[walliver]

The decision to go for 2 was the proper one. The particular play he called was not.

Chatty would not be able to stop GSU in overtime. Going for 2 gave his team a chance to win.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Just looked over the play-by-play and Chatty had 2 (two) pass completions in the second half for 17 yards. FFS, I hope we will be ready for Presley and Mitch Allen when the time comes.

[Blueandwhitefightfight]

I'm never gonna understand this, "let's tie it and play for overtime" nonsense people spew.

It's a loser mentality. Execute a play from two yards out and win the ****ing game.

Yea... because that worked out so well for UTC today... All hail you coach xbowx

[Tribal]

The GSU-Wofford game is going to be worth the price of admission. Could end 56-55.

[BlueHenSinfonian]

I'm never gonna understand this, "let's tie it and play for overtime" nonsense people spew.

It's a loser mentality. Execute a play from two yards out and win the ****ing game.

The 2 point conversion percentage is usually well under 50%, and well under the red zone scoring percentage, which is basically what overtime is. A two point conversion to win or lose is too risky, and just not smart statistically.

[TwoFeathers]

The decision to go for 2 was the proper one. The particular play he called was not.

Chatty would not be able to stop GSU in overtime. Going for 2 gave his team a chance to win.

Robinson had a guy wide open right on front of him on the right side of the end zone... and he didn't throw the ball. How did he not see that???

[Eaglesrus]

I think that, as someone else said, having schemed to play an immobile QB all week and then having that change mid-game really gave our D fits. Robinson looked really good but made a couple of freshman mistakes. Don't look forward to seeing him the next few years, but at least we'll know what we're up against. Good game Mocs!

yeah, that dude Robinson could throw the ball, and ran well too. Definately had Ga Southern guessing.. just like they are used to doing to their opponents.

[TwoFeathers]

They were saying Robinson was the 3rd stringer... who is the backup QB, and where was he?

Thank you. Hopefully some of these armchair Lombardi's will understand that.

[GSU Eagle]

I fully expected Huesman to go for 2 today. Chatt had the momentum and we were on our heels. Robinson certainly gave them a lift in the 2nd half.

I wouldn't throw dirt on the Eagles however. In many of the years we won championships there were games like today-- game we could have lost but found a way to win them. Face it-- few teams will go through a year and win every game with none of them being nail-biters.

Chatt did not exactly throttle us today either. Granted we only scored 1 TD in the 2nd half but our running game piled up alot yards today.

Chatt-- Yes they are improved but they still are losing. The games are much more competitive than in years past but they still are losing. Good teams find ways to win these close games.

[chattanoogamocs]

They were saying Robinson was the 3rd stringer... who is the backup QB, and where was he?

Technically, So. Graham Nichols is the back-up...and he did play a series.

And red-shirting this year is Jacob Huesman...who style is very similar to Terrell Robinson's...so no matter who starts next year, you are going to see an offense that is geared much more like what you saw today.

(on a side note: Terrell Robinson was a huge "get" for the Mocs, in Huesman's first recruiting class, he got TR signed up early and then fended off a bunch of FBS teams like Vandy...TR is the son of former Mocs basketball player Vincent "the Cat" Robinson, who was a good forward in the Mocs early 80's heyday...and, of course, Jacob is the coaches son...both players were Tennessee Mr Football winners)

[chattanoogamocs]

Thank you. Hopefully some of these armchair Lombardi's will understand that.

I completely get what you are saying and said the same things on Mocfans...TR might has well been a ghost until the 2nd quarter, because up until then, he literally didn't exist on film. No way to prepare for someone you have never seen (and someone who plays a completely different style than Coleman).

That being said...the kid is good he completely turned the tables on what has been the Mocs biggest weakness (inexperienced OLine).

[TwoFeathers]

For a second there, I thought you were chattownmocs... he's still dark...

[chattanoogamocs]

Chatt-- Yes they are improved but they still are losing. The games are much more competitive than in years past but they still are losing. Good teams find ways to win these close games.

Gee...thanks for the backhanded compliment.

I will point out that the Mocs have still managed to go .500 in the last 6 years with GSU. (after being just 1-19 in the previous 20 attempts)

[chattanoogamocs]

For a second there, I thought you were chattownmocs... he's still dark...

And, I hope he stays that way (primarily because his name is so close to mine...people have gotten us confused) xdohx

[TwoFeathers]

And, I hope he stays that way (primarily because his name is so close to mine...people have gotten us confused) xdohx

I'll bet chattownmocs trashed his computer after the collapse to Citadel, and got it fixed up just in time for the upset at Ga Southern. He was probably drafting up his comeback post just as the 2-point conversion failed. And he trashed his computer again. Out the window this time.

[longtimemocfan]

According to Huesman's post game interview, they only had 3 plays designed for Terrell Robinson to run. I think he did really well considering.

[longtimemocfan]

chattownmocs is going to come back after he changes his avitar pic to Terrell Robinson.

[Eagle22]

They were saying Robinson was the 3rd stringer... who is the backup QB, and where was he?

#15 I guess was their 2nd string QB. He was in for the series after Robinson fumbled the ball. But it was a quick 3 and out if I remember correctly.

[Terrierforlife]

The GSU-Wofford game is going to be worth the price of admission. Could end 56-55.

Naw, the score won't get that high, but I get your point.

[Saint3333]

Wow, congrats to GaSou, but Huesman gave y'all a major gift. What a ridiculous call to go for 2 instead of hitting the PAT and going into overtime with momentum.

My guess is he did this due to the disparity in GSU and UTC's kicking games. The call to go for 2 is debatable, however the play called was just terrible. GSU's defensive line was playing the pass much better than the run all day.

[Saint3333]

Naw, the score won't get that high, but I get your point.

I don't think either team score more than 35 when you two meet. Both defensive lines are solid and will have prepared for the rushing attack. GSU got caught by surprise today on defense.

[Terrierforlife]

I don't think either team score more than 35 when you two meet. Both defensive lines are solid and will have prepared for the rushing attack. GSU got caught by surprise today on defense.

They did, but they never adjusted. I think they got exposed today.

I'll keep saying it... Robinson had an open receiver right in front of him in the end zone, but did not throw it. Rookie mistake?

[introvertedGSUfan]

Our D got exposed today? They should have done a little better, but they were certainly not "exposed."

[Eagle22]

They did, but they never adjusted. I think they got exposed today.

Just gives us something to work on. Outside of practice, this was the first time all season we had a team even remotely try to run the ball on us. They did a pretty good job in the second half aided by Robinson's mobility.

We have the same players on the field that we had in the playoffs @ Wofford last season, with the exception of EJ Webb (who didn't play that game) and now Derek Heyden. The other big difference is we have a new DC ... who favors a lot of the same style that former DC Brent Pry had ... but still is finding his way a little bit.

Not saying we don't need to improve, but it isn't like our defense we had even two or three years ago

What? Your ends looked slow and could not keep contain on the outside. Prepared or not, play sound football.

I agree. Your guys normally play super aggressive. I actually like it.

[introvertedGSUfan]

I'm not making excuses Terrier, but our ends are not slow. They did lose contain, but most rational football fans saw that GSU did not game plan for Robinson.

[Terrierforlife]

Not hating on GSU. This was my first time seeing them this year and I was shocked in the second half with your D line. Your secondary was legit today.

[Terrierforlife]

I'm not making excuses Terrier, but our ends are not slow. They did lose contain, but most rational football fans saw that GSU did not game plan for Robinson.

I agree but not loosing contain is a fundamental. Especially when the guys not a passing threat. But hey survive and advance. 5-0 is 5-0

[TwoFeathers]

Definately exposed. They were allowing what, 50 yards rushing per game? How many yards did Chattanooga put up on the ground? Something went wrong.

[Terrierforlife]

This was definitely, by far, GSU's best test to date.

[TwoFeathers]

Chatty gained 230+ yards rushing. Impressive.

[cannonballgsu]

This was definitely, by far, GSU's best test to date.

And passing with one point is still passing! The UTC qb was very very hard to stop. Great game by UTC - it sucks to drop three games by so few points.

That 2pt conversion was pretty ballsey. Glad it didn't work.

[Redbirdz]

is Chatty now out of the playoff picture?

[TwoFeathers]

is Chatty now out of the playoff picture?

They've lost 4, so they have to win out, right?

[Eagle22]

Two ways of spinning this ... Entering the game, GSU was allowing 234.2 yards per game through the air, worst in the conference.

We held UTC to just 87 yards. They were averaging 225.5 yards per game.

I guess we shored up our pass defense, eh ?

That's the kind of logic you're using ;)

Agreed.

[longtimemocfan]

I'll keep saying it... Robinson had an open receiver right in front of him in the end zone, but did not throw it. Rookie mistake?

He did,but the bad snap kind of disrupted the play.

[gomocs82]

As to the question of #2 or #3....Nichols (RS-SO) is listed #2 on depth chart. He is more like Coleman--drop back passer...Robinson has been listed #3 (RS-FR), but I think most Moc fans have beleived he will win the job in the spring. Watching him today made me feel better aobut the Mocs next year on offense as the Mocs return 9 starters (lose Coleman and Bradford). 70% of team is a FR or SO

Sounds like you all will be dangerous next year.

[gomocs82]

Hopefully...but we thought that last year as well! Of course, Moc fans knew it would be a slow process. Coleman excellerated the process and got our hopes up. UTC football has gone through the loss of scholarships (9 i think it was) and practice restrictions (16 hours a week) for the last 2 years. The incoming class is the first with 63 scholarships under Huesman..they brought in 19 and have RS most--he has done that to the extent possible all 3 classes. Mocs return 7, maybe 8 on defense. Headed in the right direction for sure....but still 0-3 in the SoCon.

[TwoFeathers]

Nit picking here... but I didn't notice the bad snap. Just seemed like he held the ball too long, and didn't see the open guy. And took the sack.

Whatever the case, 2pt attempt failed and the Mocs came up short. Guess we move on, and get ready for WCU to come to town.

I thought it looked to be down around Robinson's ankles.

[gomocs82]

"I wanted to win the game. I wanted to win the game right there because we had momentum. That's on me. I lost this game for our football team. Those guys played hard enough to win this game so this loss is mine. Not the offense, defense or special teams; it's on me."


Huesman comment after the game on 2pt attempt

[gomocs82]

Monken on 2pt conversion


Were you surprised they went for two?
"Not at all, they were playing to win. During that drive I turned to Brent Davis and said, "If they score a touchdown, they're going to go for two and we might have to go down the field and kick a field goal to win the game." I'm surprised they sent the field goal team out there, but not surprised when they called timeout. I fully assumed they would go for two."

Coach, talk about that two-point conversion
"We got a great jump on that play and Josh Rowe got there first and thankfully we were able to get some pressure on them and he wasn't able to find anyone."

[seantaylor]

Chatty fans were swallowing Coleman for the only reason that he was a Vols transfer. Funny how things work out. Coleman was always very overrated. Now, we'll here how they would have won if Robinson started.

[seantaylor]

Anyone explain to me how BRuss was credited with no sacks? Looked like at least 2 or possibly 3.

[gomocs82]

Yeah he has been bad, about 5300 passing his first 2 years, 1295 this year, he really isn't very good.

Also, we would have won if the 2pt conversion work, but it didn't....so we lost. Stuff happens.

See you next year in Chattanooga.

[GSUhooligan]

Yeah, cause we've never scored in less than a minute and a half before xrolleyesx

[Mikeyosef]

I'm not surprised they went for 2 either. They did it in their loss against App last year and didn't learn a darn thing. They clearly have a good team even with the losses but as long as Huseman goes with his gut instead of using his head...they're going to lose games they should win. Huseman's done a great job pulling that program out of the ashes, I think with a lot of emotion..which is a good thing but sometimes you ahve to take the emotion out.

[The Eagle's Cliff]

You would've had a good chance of winning, but with 1:44 on the clock and three timeouts, the Mocs defense would've had their hands full. If you recall, our 2-minute offense went down the field a scored a TD in 1:14 just before the half with only two timeouts. Our FG kicker is one of the best in FCS.

The Fact is, Robinson helped the Mocs play their best game of the year and still couldn't finish for the win against a GSU team with a lame QB and a confused defense and an Eagle who flew to the parking lot because of the strong wind - omen?.

Chatty has a good team, but you do have to actually win games to be among the best. The Mocs have a chance to win out and make the playoffs, but will they?

[gasoutherneagle]

chattownmocs is going to come back after he changes his avitar pic to Terrell Robinson.

If his wrists weren't slit after last week, he surely slit them last night. OUCH!

[Eaglesrus]

If his wrists weren't slit after last week, he surely slit them last night. OUCH!

Yeah, that Tennessee loss to UGA must have been really tough for him.

[gomocs82]

Guess I should have said most likely would have won....but really just being sarcastic about the comment that Moc fans will probably claim UTC would have won if we had started Robinson.

Mocs gave GSU a scare, but the Eagles won. Period. No excuses. I was very pleased to see how well Robinson did play and the team responded after being down 21-7. No meltdown.

Mocs now need to take it out on WCU and finally get a SoCon win.

[gomocs82]

Nit picking here... but I didn't notice the bad snap. Just seemed like he held the ball too long, and didn't see the open guy. And took the sack.



Robinson lined up in the shotgun, but he never had a chance. A low snap got the play off to a bad start and then the Eagles were quickly in the backfield to wrap him up, much to the relief of the crowd of 20,593 at Paulson Stadium

[GATA]

Well... hell of an effort, Chattanooga.

Georgia Southern will lose to Wofford and/or App State.

**** outta here? Why? because Wofford is some juggernaut? This is the same team that went to the wire with Presbyterian. They have bad/average games just like everyone else.

Last two times GSU and Wofford have played it went down to the wire and the next one will be no different.

Is your QB still hurt or 100% for my Paladins? Prolly 100%.. lol

Fair statement.

Prob 90% IMO

He is not very athletic but usually makes really good decisions much like Ingle Martin

IMOp, had the game been in Chattanooga, the Mocs would have won.

[chattanoogamocs]

You could argue that about the GSU and ASU games...of course, they couldn't beat the Citadel at home, so maybe not. xxdohxx

[eaglewraith]

IMOp, had the game been in Chattanooga, the Mocs would have won.

If Coleman had stayed on the field, you would have lost by 3+TD's

See I can do this too.

He is VERY athletic and extremely tough player. I think what you mean here is he's not very fast. THAT I can agree with.xthumbsupxxpeacex

Yeah, the polar opposite way in which Jayson Foster was athletic. Slow is a better way to put it.
