If our d-line doesn't play a clean two gap we will lose to Army. Houston wasn't big on zone blocking and our LB's got destroyed in the 1st half. If that was Army or Navy we would have lost to each.

After that type of win this is what comes to your mind and was worth a post? Jeez

Next.

Did anybody catch that comment in the tweet about Amare Jones' broken nose? I saw it in a few other tweets this morning. When did that happen?

It was like the play before McMillen's 12-yard TD run (early 4th). Jones ran the ball and got tackled normally, then he started running to the sideline and motioning that he had to come out. He stayed out for quite a while and re-appeared with about 5 minutes left.

Another thing that is becoming a chronic problem and REALLY needs to be addressed is the defensive substitution problems. We had to waste two 2nd half TOs on that.

Had to come back and say, WHAT A FINISH! I was FURIOUS with this team at halftime. I am amazed at the way they rose up in the second half and wore down Houston. That being said, WAY to many offensive penalties......get those under control and I honestly believe we are looking at 11-1 or 10-2 season,,,,,

Is Winwave in the booth tonight? That was not a tough catch. Right in his hands. He was running too fast? Really?

Fuck you asshole. It was a tough catch. It's a situation where you pray it's made but it was a tough play. I'd like to see you make it.

I knew that would get you riled up . It was an easy catch that myself and others make every Saturday in our Over 40 Flag Football League.

Sure you do. Still wasting your time watching football. Keep that bench warm. Glad to know I'm always on your mind.

Lol

We want to switch the DLine on 3rd downs, but now our opponents know it and UH went no huddle quick on 3rd downs to take advantage of it. We are a HS pitcher who throws a curve in the dirt every 0-2 count. Entire world knows it. We had to stop it last night, but I hope it is something we can adjust moving forward.

I'm glad my gut feeling was right in the third quarter and it was a great win! Now the biggest question is: is jeffery johnson ok? He was helped off the field by 3 staff members and was initially grabbing at the higher part of his ankle and haven't heard any updates on him.

I think our front 7 spend as much time and energy running on and off the field as they do running plays. We may have reached a point where a little less is better. At Auburn, they said the SEC officials were less clear about the substitution allowance times. That can't be said this week. If this is what AAC officials do, than we had better adapt... soon.

Great to be out and about today and the sight of the Angry Wave gear gets people talking to you about the game and team. Fun to be a Wave fan today.

Same here, although a few "dirty looks" from "LSU types"!

[MicMan]

All those penalties and burning two TOs on defense? Shades of the CJ era... And, you can't count on that many TD passes on so few completions. Lot of work to do.

I might have finally got to sleep about 3 AM EDT. Had a 9:00 Tee Time tied to a wedding that's been planned for a year, and was still fired up (and hungover) when it came time to hit the little white ball. But I was sporting a one of a kind Angry Wave/Steal Your Face Hoodie. It got into the 50's up here last night. Great New England fall weather. Two weeks until the Wave beats up the Black Knights of the Hudson. It cannot come soon enough!

Roll Wave!

I will be wearing my Angry Wave pin on my Tux at a very upscale wedding (one of my best friends daughters) I'm going to tomorrow. It actually goes well with the black tie!

ROLL WAVE!
