Need to see our offense show up. 17-10

Offense averaged 3.4 points per drive. Against San Diego they were at 4.1 points per drive. It’s not a significant difference.

No matter how often anomalies happen in sports - and they happen every day - fans refuse to acknowledge them. Just yesterday Cal Raleigh hit his 60th home run and Cleveland took the lead in the AL Central after trailing by 17 games - first time a catcher did that and first time a team did that in the history of MLB baseball. Everyone realizes that just because those two things happened this year, it doesn't mean they're going to happen again next year. Yet, Mercyhurst "holding" MSU to 17 points or something similar, is something some fans think every team can do now.

I just want people to realize that MSU’s scoring output had more to do with MSU’s defense than their offense. Offense just didn’t get the ball very much. And I’m not even saying the defense played bad, I think the game plan was bad, but understandable at the same time. They were playing it very safe.

And I’m not trying explain why it happened, just that stuff like this happens and sometimes you’re in the middle of it. Most perfect games pitched aren’t by elite pitchers. The examples are limitless.

One of my favorites: Joe Kapp is tied for the NFL record for TD passes (7) in a game. He only threw 33 in the other 50 nfl games he played in.

We seem to struggle with the QB +1 run game (or at least we did last year against these guys) so I'm going to say:

Bobcats - 34
Beagles - 24

[Bobcat 1963]

Bobcats 34
EWU 9

[TCcat 84]

Bobcats----26
Eagles------17

Bobcats - 34
Beagles - 24

Their quarterback ran 21 times for 65 yards. Really struggled!

I believe Wortham’s long run came when he was at QB.

I think that was a reverse.

It was and Wortham faked a double reverse. And O’Reilly was held. EWU quarterback didn’t play so the defense had to scramble a bit. Mellott threw a bad pick.

Bad memory on my part then. I felt like their QB ran all over us, but I'm obviously mistaken. My memory of the game was that they kept getting 4 yards a carry and moving the chains little by little and it was very frustrating
