    @DCHawker said in Border War: @Jayhawk_69 said in Border War: That game went about as expected. The good news is our season is far from over. If Marshall can start playing like a serviceable starter I think we have a shot at a bowl game. Was there anything in the game that has you believe that Marshall is a "serviceable" P4 starter? 13 of 30 (and one of those was a wing and a prayer). 2 INTs. 4 fumbles (only 1 TO). 20 rushes for 23 yards. Really undersized. Some of the ineffectiveness is due to O-line woes, but definitely not all. Multiple really bad throw/decision-making. I really question whether either of our QBs is capable of winning games for us against quality competition... I honestly am scratching my head pretty hard at this point as to how in the heck he won the job. Cole is obviously a good leader and respected by his teammates or he wouldn’t be a captain. He also played well enough to beat KSU in his only start IMO. Honestly hoping he isn’t hurt because the way this line looks, I see no chance of us making it all year without someone getting hurt at QB. Marshall I think is a great athlete but we look like a highschool program just putting the ball in the hands of the best athlete and hoping it works out. It was the same story with Ryan Willis and Montell Cozart under Beaty. Willis was much better at decision making and throwing but Cozart was a good athlete. Obviously any comparison to the Beaty coaching isn’t going to be positive. IMO if we aren’t going to move Marshall to RB or WR, which is likely where he would be at most P4 programs. We need to burn the play book and start running the triple option. The option came about for teams that gave up too much penetration up the middle. I’m not sure if our Guards came from Haskell but they sure hell look like it. I’d also like to see Dylan Edwards get more touches. I agree he is small but he is very shifty and quick. He is averaging 5.9 yards per carry. Willis has not impressed me in the slightest so far between seeming to run right into the defense and have holding calls against him, mainly because his blocking form is similar to my sons 5th and 6th team. We have to find ways to get Edwards and McMillan the ball in space. I’m just not sure that’s possible with Marshall throwing it to them. We obviously have a long journey ahead with the ASU game. But I’ve always felt like weird game circumstances favor the underdog which is obviously us. We likely won’t be favored in another game this season outside of middle Tennessee. I do think Mizzou is a much better team than ASU so all we can do is line them up and see how it goes.

    Mayjay update: Lingering for a few nights in Santa Fe on our long move cross country to LV. We moved out of our house in Hilton Head on August 17, and we are supposed to close in LV on our house in Summerlin on Sept 25th. That will end 44 days of being itinerant retirees bouncing from motel to motel, with just 2 nights with friends. Packing 3 Pods was a nightmare because we had lots of stuff in storage while showing our house--hey, here's some free advice: GET RID OF CRAP WHILE YOU CAN! Anyway, once we are settled (best guess, sometime in the 2030's) I will be back here more often. Meanwhile, my heart goes out to all of you who have lost loved ones or are facing health issues. We have had tumult and chaos, but we are fully aware we are lucky to be able to make the choices causing our upheaval. Not everyone is so fortunate. Good luck to all of my friends here and to our teams! I'll be lurking until about October....
