This is inexcusable. Everyone knew it was "trap game" before the season starts and you still come out and get ragdolled on both sides of the ball. It's not even like ECU is doing anything new or fancy. They're just straight up out playing us.
It some ways, this is worse than the JMU game. We were flat in that game but still competed (but it was still an FCS opponent). So far in this game, it's like you pulled an intramural squad off the drill field and put them out there. If we don't score on this drive, its game over. It likely is already but still.
Wtf? Why even go for a 52 yard field goal? That's such a low percentage play in college. Either go for it on 4th and 10 or just punt. We've got nothing to lose anyway. Getting 3 pts isn't going to help. Getting our asses handed to us in every phase of the game both players and coaches now.
Finally starting showing some spark on both sides of the ball with about 4 mins left in the half. We're extremely lucky ECU only scored 21 pts and we managed to get a late TD. Just got to put all the bad feeling away now and make some significant adjustments. I think we need to score on this opening 2nd half drive to make it 21-14. If we can do that, we have a good shot at coming back and pulling out a W. We just cannot afford to keep letting ECU storm down field so easily
