amen ax!

this is a fiend league! get on that yall.

cant wait for the advance

MTSU victorious over rival WKU 35 to 14. Will hear from Coach Hickerson shortly.

around what time are you free cookan?

"Any win after a loss like last week is big, a win over a rival is even bigger, especially a convincing one. It was good to get back on the field after last week, no telling how much dang sleep I lost last week thinking about how many ways we could have won that game, just one of those things you cant get out of your mind as a coach. We played well today, we finally ran the ball, this is my 4th season here, and I can finally say we had a back with a 100 yard rushing game, thank you Benny, big monkey off my back.*laughs* Benny ran well, i think he had like 130 yards, but William also ran well, he had 55 or 60 yards. Zach didnt run as effectively as last week in his designed packages but he kept the defense honest, a bunch of times he was in when Ben or Will would break a decent one, so that makes us feel better. Logan played decent again at quarterback, still just managing the game, which is great, but we know he is an electric quarterback and very accurate passer so we expect bigger thigns from him, and he will give us that eventually. The passing game isnt all him either, we got to find some receivers that will catch the ball, drops killed us, i mean KILLED us last week, and they hurt us this week, thankfully our running game was working and it didnt hurt us as much, but we gotta find soem guys that will catch for us.
Defensivley, man I have been waiting to get to them, all i can say is PAT MCNEIL, gah lee, that kid played his ass off today, 11 tackles, 7 on his own, 5 behidn the line, 1 sack, a forced fumble, and im probably leaving something out, that is the most impressive single game performance by a player i have coached in my career, hats off to that kid, and if he can repeat that effort, I like our defensive line. The ends played great again, and our other 2 tackles played well also, the freshman, Brittain, even got some snaps and made a tackle.
Overall, I am proud of the guys, real proud the way we came back today, and as much as we could, put last week out of our minds. Next week we travel, gonna be one hell of a test for our guys and I am really looking forward to it should be a fun game up there in Washington and its always fun to coach against Coach Gruden, nothing better than coachign against a good friend, and I know his boys will be ready and I hope ours will be, see yall there!"

Sorry Buc, it was like 1AM my time when you disconnected, and I would've had to sit and we would've had to replay. I can play tonight after work around 630PM eastern or late like 12:30am eastern, let me nkow what works best for you. I don't know how we recreate a situation in the 4th down. We could play the first quarter with you up 14, but it messes with the entire landscape of the game ie clock running when you go out of bounds, takes the momentum you had away... plus that wuold decide who wins, but how would we get an appropriate result? I guess since you were up you could play Pitt with me on autopilot, but I bet you wuoldn't want to do that. Let me know what you're thinking, I'll check back here on my lunch.

I really don't know what to do, I will not be up that late anymore, except maybe on the weekends. I just got a new job as a teacher, and have to be at work at 7:15...so no more late nights for me, my new playing times will be much like Goat's...evening for sure, and maybe one late night or so....

So I really dont know what we can do, I was up 14 with 6:00 left..so its tough to re-create that situation. So anybody got any opinions as what to do?

Because I know we want to advance, but I would not be able to play until tomorrow evening, if we were to try and play some part of the game again,..

Reason I wasnt around this evening, is because I was up at the school trying to get all me stuff together, as I just got hired on Friday, and start tomorrow LOL..

congrats on the job buc...

what if yall just give whoever had the ball when yall lost connection the ball to start the game, let them get to where they were when connection was lost, and start playing with 6 minutes left in the 1st...

then if macc comes back and wins the 1st quarter 14-0 then yall will have to figure out an overtime... let bucc score 14 points and then let the clock run otu the rest of the way,...

if macc doesnt come back from 14 points, then just let bucc play out the game and get the w afetr the first quarter.

Man it's such a frustrating situation. Like I want to just give you the game and say lets sim the game and just advance this allready, but part of me feels like I deserve that 6 minutes, u know? There's no way to recreate that situation, there's games where first quarter your team just comes out dominating. Would I deserve that, if say that's what happened when we played again? Probably not.

LLCoolGrey I assure you this is a one in a life time situation, we're often very good and can advance some weeks within 12-18 hours.

Legit, if it works easier Buc you can just play the CPU or if u want we can sim til you win. Let's just advance or if you want we can try to play that game tonight, let me know. PS Congrats on the job dude!

Txt me let me know Buc, 5199926989.

Thanks guys!

Macc I sent you a text...I would rather sim it til I win, but I know that doesnt seem all the way fair either..so its real tough

so are we just waiting for you guys to replay your game for the advance? or do we still have to wait for the other two users game, gtech owner too?

Other user game will be played later tonight around 11est..or so

I think macc said he wont be home till after that, and I cannot stay up that late anymore..schedule has changed lol

So I am seeing if he wil let me sim until I win..I was up 14 when we lost connection...6:00 left or so in the 4th...so its tricky because there was some time left, but I was up two scores too lol

who had the ball? the person up 14? or the person down 14.

bc if you guys cant get the game in tonight...then you wont be able to get it in until tomorrow night bc of work. thats like 72 hours since the last advance. i can def understand why theres a dilemma, just hope you guys can figure a solution.
