I'm not hearing Troy's name called. How's he playing?
On the drake scoring drive he doesn’t look like the impactful player we are use to. Someone mentioned last week he is playing a position that doesn’t suit his skill set and so far I would have to agree. He isn’t allowed to impact a game like he could in offense or outside backer
Totally agree. Get him outside and let him use his speed.
I'd say put him at nickel, but Ty Okada has become an absolute beast out there.
100% Okada... holy crap, he came to play!
Holy schidt I bet he thought he was Robby f()(ing Hauck!

I was so excited for the ESPN plus feed, since i have an account and live out of state. This may be the worst production I've ever seen. The last td, the camera never even showed it.
I’m in the same boat and majority of the games are going to be on ESPN+, but I think it’s MSU’s production and just run through ESPN.
I watched from the MSU feed. It had no commercials, but i it worked good.

Never saw Areta last night. Did I miss him or some info on him? Fully expected to see him in rotation.

I was wondering the same thing? Thought we would at least see him late in the game when all the backups were playing.

Side note- Eiden looked good!

I couldn’t even find Tua on the sidelines. Maybe I missed him.

Somebody mentioned going back to last game that number 10 is actually Brodie Grebe. And not Kenneth Eiden. Whoever number 10 was played well.

Brody Grebe was number 11 and Eiden was 10 in Fall camp. Grebe had a great Fall camp. He is going to be a good one. Areta and Eiden were knicked up in Fall camp.

Yep. MSU (or maybe more precisely Learfield) is responsible for what goes out on the air. Their announcers. Their camera work. You’d never know that MSU has a Film & Television School, because they surely don’t seem to take advantage of or work with the School as they could. The stream worked well but the highest camera was as blurry as a Kodak Instamatic. The production for ESPN+ was treated as an afterthought as the commercial breaks were only synchronized with the SWX production. I watched some of the volleyball matches from the Bobcat Classic last weekend and I thought they were done much better.
Maybe we can get someone to donate $50 mm or so to upgrade the Film & TV Dept so we can get top quality equipment and broadcasts of Bobcat athletics. Great training/learning opportunity! 🤷‍♂️

#10 was Grebe. Yes it was announced prior to Wyoming game. And he played well.

I just watched the post game interviews. As impressive as Daniel Hardy, Lance McCutcheon, and Ty Okada are on the field, they are equally impressive off the field. Very, very well spoken young men. We are fortunate they are Bobcats!
