Consecutive MWC losses since I don’t know when. Perhaps that is a good sign.
Hanging zeros in the third and fourth quarters is proof of a struggling offense. We gained 64 yards on the ground the entire evening. Our struggle to block continues. Additionally, the offense created a paltry 8 first downs the entire game. No offense stays on the field long enough to score with that few first downs. The only good offensive news was SDSU receivers averaging 27.2 yards per completion. Between Christian and Ryan, 8 passes were completed. Each lays claim to 4. Spread the mediocrity to equal measure. Look! We are both crappy.
Congrats to the defense for keeping the Bulldogs far under their offensive average. Kyahva Tezino (15 tackles) and Parker Baldwin (14 tackles) gave me a reason to continue watching the game. At least we had the decency to sack Mr. McMaryion 3 times while he enjoyed a 17/24/267 night.
Fred Trevillion had his best game by far with a line of 4/189 and 2 scores. Maybe he can repeat that line against Hawaii.
If you did not notice, Hawaii is tied with us for third place in the West. Saturday night, we arrive ready to play or we end the MWC season with a rough 4-4 record. Bowl eligible is not the same as an invitation.
7-4/4-3.
