Agree. Montana would be tough even if we had won this game. State should have been taking a knee here at the end, but of course we still have to finish and make plays. It is up to us to stop them.
That being said, sure wish we would have scored a TD on the last drive (or at least made the FG). We will need to be able to make those this season.

Bottom line, we out played them for 3 Quarters and we got worn out. Our starters are as good as theirs. Depth killed us. We should be proud.

I’m taking this as a W in the momentum category.

I always hear there is no such thing as a moral victory, but I’d say I have not been this enthusiastic after a 17-point loss in a long time. In the end we are 0-1 and really need to win these next 2 games before heading out to Montana. Let’s be 2-1 heading into Missoula!

One lineman (#75 Carter I believe) was taken out and McQueen was out too in second half. I hope no major injuries reported. D line looking munch better. Very close until the last 10 minutes then momentum change. Western just got worn down. They don’t have the depth like State.

i came here to ask do you think we got beat in the 4th due to depth or do you think any of it had to do with the OC and DC calls in the fourth?

In my opinion, 2 things happened Our defense looked tired in the 4th Quarter and we started to sub a lot where NC State did not put their 3rd and 4th string guy in. I thought our OC and DC called a masterful game. What calls do you mean in the 4th quarter?

We gave them a very competitve game and made them work for their win. Their overall advantage in size and speed etc. finally wore us down but I am happy with the way we played for our first game. I was surprised to see how well overall our defense played and have to be optimistic about our season at this point even though it is just one game.
