Great win! But...

The biggest thing I'm concerned about is all the injuries. We had a bunch of them.

TJ Lee - Back (Huge loss)
Chase King - Concussion
Shaq Hill - Dislocated Shoulder
Allen Brown - Concussion

I think there were others. The concussion guys I doubt will be back for next week. The Lee i jury is problematic, as we are very thin there.

A lot of great plays on both sides of the ball today.

I am also concerned about all the injuries. There was some serious hitting out there. I think they were about to call in the water boy.

Great job today guys!!! GREAT WIN! FINAL 4 Baby!

I'm just playing around. I thought we played great today. We gave up a lot of points, but you could put a lot of that on the fact our offense had a lot of short possessions and hung our defense out a few times. Our offense played that high-risk, high-reward style all game long and it paid dividends. We were a little sloppy at times (Shaquille Hill will be dying to live his down), but we made some phenomenal plays. To their credit, they made some big plays as well and almost went toe-to-toe.

Still, I wish we'd at least work to milk a little time off the clock when we build leads. And yes, the injuries are a concern--- especially TJ Lee III.
 
It was a great win. I expect to see you in January.

Just a word to those who post here regularly ... you will start seeing posts by an a..hole from Sam Houston Institute of Technology who uses the name "Nickels". Pay no attention to him. His posts on the Cal Poly forum were intended to inflame, and I've seen his posts on the AnyGivenSaturday forum, too. You'll be hearing from him. Just delete him from your mind.

I thought 8500 was a sellout that's not a sell out . . . .is it?
I was actually hoping for MSU because I was hoping we would go for the big money grab and jack up the tickets for the game :-)

I know Eastern has to give an allotment to Illinois State, so a sellout refers to Eastern selling their entire allotment.

Just saw Forte had 116 rushing yards... man, does that help our offense. He's starting to learn the cut back on the zone play, and he used it 2 or 3 times today for nice gains.

Makes sense, but do they get 1k for the game?


Yah there was a couple of times he looked like the second coming of Jones. Nice to see the shot gun draw work again as it was the kiss of death last year.

Yep. Forte had some damn nice runs.

I trust Schuetzle will be ready fill in for Lee next game...we have kids just waiting to step up...Go EAGS!!

Yeah, absolutely he can step in. But TJ Lee is our best coverman, and losing him would be tough.

I trust he will as well. But realistically I'm hoping Lee will play. National semi-finals. Unless you've got broken bones or a concussion, you better be out on the field.

My new baby is 2.:)..but maybe. I'm probably heading up Fri and coming back early sun.
 
I had to miss the game due to my brothers wedding (He attends University of Montana :lol: ). But I had texts updating me the whole way. Great job Eagles! I'll have to find a video of the game online.

Seems your brother owes it to you to drive out to Cheney with his new bride to watch EWU advance to the Championship! :thumb:

Sorry but the $$$$$$$$$$$$$ go to NCAA not Eastern.
 
Well if that is the case make it as cheap as possible just so you can break even. The NCAA makes enough money . . . ie see under the table deals from Bowl games.
