About last night - Georgia State edition

Well, I will say one thing for this team... They always make it interesting.

Here is the Good, the Bad, and Ugly from last night's win over the other GSU.

The Good --
• AJ Turner is a legit stud... Imagine what we'd be discussing if we'd given him the ball a few more time against Georgia Southern in the second half. Love Huff, Hate Huff, the guy knows how to find and develop running backs and Turner is a potential home run hitter every time he gets it.
• Scripted plays... One theme that has appeared over the past 3-4 weeks - We are good on the first 2-3 possessions when we are running from a script. The issue is when the script runs out, or we are forced to adjust (more on that in a minute).
• Mike Green is an animal... He's been so good getting to the QB that he was drawing doubles all night. A tackle and a back, a tackle and a TE, tackle and guard, they had to commit two guys to 15. We need another pass rusher to get home from the other side because teams are adjusting to take away Green.
• Where has this Reece Verhoff been?... Banging home kicks from 40-plus two weeks in a row. Nice to see him finding some flow this season.

The Bad --
• Tackling... I know it was a short week and guys may not have felt 100 percent, but man our tackling was bad. Arm tackles, no one wrapping up, guys getting 3-4-5 yards after contact. Overall, a poor night for getting guys on the ground.
• Untimely turnovers... Following up the Georgia Southern game where a couple of turnovers absolutely killed us. It was a pretty clean game until GSU pulled within one score and Braxton hit their middle linebacker in the chest for a huge INT. Thank goodness GSU's coach looked about as unprepared for a close game as anyone in the stadium and they didn't score (they also didn't take the points earlier in the game and got stopped on 4th down at the 10 yard line which was a huge screwup by their first year HC).
• Zone coverage... I know you have to mix up the coverages between man and zone, but every big play we made all night was in man coverage. When we played zone, we played poorly, and GSU's backup QB was smart enough to take the wide open 5-7 yard throws over the middle of the field.

The Ugly --
• Thursday night crowds... We've discussed this at length 1,000 times on here, and I don't think there's any way to fix it aside from maybe being undefeated when our Thursday night game rolls around. But on TV it looked like there were about 500 people on the visiting side in the second half.
• Adjustments... The offense came out hot, scored on the first three possessions (while staying on script). Then nothing for a long long time as GSU got back in the game. It seems like Doege may have figured out the first 20-25 plays of the game, which most teams put together throughout the week. But then he struggles to keep the momentum once the script runs out. We need to be better at halftime of evaluating and adjusting to the flow of the game.

All in all, a fun win to kick off a long break that is going to feel like an eternity.

Louisiana Monroe has a bye this week and then a huge game against South Alabama on Oct. 26 before their trip to Huntington... Fun fact, if you just google "Monroe football" they aren't even at the top of the google search. You get Monroe High School NC followed by other Monroe High Schools, lol

If Trump wins, prepare for violence from the left.

They are going to meltdown if he wins. From family feuds to the streets. They are going to go nuts. Just think of people like EG, but millions of them going bonkers. I am not joking.

They are going to go off the cliff. Just saw a dude on tv say that if he wins it will be the biggest mental health crisis in this country's history. Wow, that would be bad? Would they really go that nuts? I think they will go crazy and it will be stirred.

Going to be up to the states to spell this thing out and calm this thing down.

I Hate NYC

I've never loved it. Sure, like any major city, there are going to be really cool neighborhoods scattered around, but overall, I dislike NYC. I travel everywhere frequently . . . out of the 50 largest U.S. cities, Portland and Detroit are the only two I haven't spent time in (been in Detroit numerous times but not to visit). Out of the top 75 cities, that number jumps to seven. And of those 68 I have been to, I've been to most of them multiple times.

So even though I despise NYC overall, it is right at the top with Los Angeles for hot slvts. They're everywhere. Walk down a midtown street, your head is spinning . . . and the best part is the diversity of them. You'll see some hot models, then a girl who just got done running 10 miles, followed by a hot NYU nerd, followed by a sexy hood rat girl, followed by a hot [fill in any nationality] girl. They're simply everywhere. I don't like the city, but god, I can see why people who are single love it there.

On a different note, I am now upstate visiting momma'. She lives in a red area. We drove around the last two days, and I kept count of Harris vs. trump signs/flags. Yesterday, in her neighborhood which at this point has turned to lower-middle class over time, it was 11-11. Today, in the nicest neighborhood about a mile away, it was 3-0 in favor of Harris. In the next level down neighborhood, it was also 3-0 in favor of Harris. In next level down neighborhood, it was 3-2 in favor of trump.

It fits what I've said for years: the deplorables tend to be the lower educated and those down on their luck. trump gets their support, because he gives them an excuse to blame their laziness, poor decisions, etc. on everybody other than the person in the mirror. Considering the area that I was in, I was very surprised to see even the wealthiest areas be so lopsided.
