I was sitting at 50 seven rows up ( In Someone else’s seats!) what concerns me is Tommy throws too low and too hard. He had at least three in the dirt where receiver was open doesn’t mean he can’t fix that but it was not a wind issue. Maybe he was throwing hard because of the wind. He will learn and be better. But maybe not by next week. I think you have to score 30-40 against SHSU to win. But we have the defense so maybe 25 will do it.BelgradeBobcat wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:29 pmAnd we got almost all of our points going into the wind-crazy.

Underrated play in the 2nd quarter was a 3rd and long in the red zone. Instead of risking an interception, they ran to the left with Mellott. He didn't score, but the ball was placed on the left hash, making that FG MUCH easier.
Mellott is going to be able to throw on SHSU. The wind was brutal.

Weren’t some of those when the CB basically hugged the WR and wouldn’t allow them to come back to the ball? Can’t really blame Mellott for that.Catprint wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 7:37 pmI was sitting at 50 seven rows up ( In Someone else’s seats!) what concerns me is Tommy throws too low and too hard.

If Cats can beat SHSU there is a really good chance for a home semi final game against SDSU.

UTM coach showed a lot of class. Great leader for his program.
While registering my vehicles the assessor stated "I have had both Cat and Griz students and alums work for me and the Griz end up working under the direction of the Cats."

Somebody should send him over the hill to give boobie hack some lessons on class. A win or loss, doesn't matter that guy has zero class. Poor reflection on that school over there

Happy for the fellas to get the W, especially after all the drama this past two weeks. Touchdown Tommy gives this team new energy...and I couldn't be more excited. Go Cats!!

If you put yesterday’s weather on steroids you’d have today’s weather. It was a great day of football despite the wind yesterday. The physical abilities of TM were a factor and so was the mental effects that came along with having him at the helm.

I was too busy standing and hollering during the game to post comments on my phone.! I was in section 111 and nobody around us sat for the whole game. I thought the fans did a pretty good job other than getting loud when we were on offense more than once?CodyCat wrote: ↑Sat Dec 04, 2021 4:31 pmHeck yes it does!

Yeah, crowd seemed good to me.

Nice to see a contingent of Tennessee Martin fans at the tailgates and in the stands. We stopped by a gathering of SkyHawk fans as they were wrapping up their gathering on the practice field and had a couple minutes chatting with them. Very friendly bunch of folks. Here's a little tidbit I learned in those few minutes that I found interesting: UT-Martin is the only University east of the Mississippi River that has won the College National Rodeo Championship and apparently it's not uncommon for Montana cowboys to find their way to that University.

Re: The Official-unofficial Bobcat-UTM playoff gameday thread
I was in 111 as well doing my part, but overall it felt more on par with the Idaho State game not a playoff game. Maybe I had unrealistic expectations going in to the game base on past experiences. I’ve been to every playoff game played in bobcats stadium in my 40 years and this was the least energetic crowd I’ve experienced.kwcat wrote: ↑Sun Dec 05, 2021 9:20 amI was too busy standing and hollering during the game to post comments on my phone.!

I just finished watching the replay on ESPN+ and I have to say that was the best ESPN TV crew I’ve ever listened to broadcast a Bobcat game. They were both knowledgeable about the players and even knew little details about them. Very nice. Big kudos.

Re: The Official-unofficial Bobcat-UTM playoff gameday thread
West side was good on third downs,. Sat a lot the rest. But to can be loud without standing. I think the wind didn't allow much sound to stay in stadium and have as much impact. Also very few electric plays, just methodical, which I thinks impact it as well.
