Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

Mark me down in the camp for the white pants. Do the yellow for home games but white for hobo day and or rivalry games and keep blue just for road games. Thought the white looked pretty sharp. Sort of that retro look. Anyway That was fun to watch when I got home. Wish cal poly would have won also.

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

Great to see the defense respond after being punched in the mouth early. It would have been easy to continue to lose confidence. Instead, hopefully this game is a huge confidence builder.

A lot of good things to talk about. One thing that still worries me is our run game. Too many negative run plays, it's like our line just doesn't get any push. We ended up in a lot of 3rd and longs because we couldn't run the ball and the 3 headed monster (TC, Weineke, and Goedert) would bail out the offense. It was clear that WIU's game plan was to stop the run, get us in 3rd and long and hope to get off the field. Well, as we know, it's not easy to get the jacks off the field even with 3rd and long. I hate to be the guy that brings up negative things after a really good win against a highly ranked really good opponent, but the run game does worry me. The only thing they have going for them is that defenses are going to have to load up to stop Weineke and Goedert, which should open up some running lanes.

Overall, very excited about the win and this team in general.

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

The white pants should become a thing, also last year it took a crazy set of circumstances and a complete lack of sympathy from Bobby boy and the rest of the WIU administration for the them to beat us. I'm glad we got back to kicking their ass like we usually do.

Ugh, personally I didn't like the white pants at all. But that's just me.

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

Stat of the night - Jacks scored 52 points and only entered the red zone once.

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

Home from the game and watching Sports Center.

That win over WIU was satisfying. I was worried it was going to be a close game and while I thought we'd win, I also was prepared for a loss. Coaches and team made the appropriate adjustments in the first quarter and shut out the 'Neck for the following three quarters. That's a good defense like we knew it could be. The passing game is outstanding. Running game is okay with signs of more and better to come.

Great day to be a Jackrabbit!

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

I'm assuming we're playing this well because I couldn't go to the game or watch due to moving all day. What a freaking game.

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

I thought,"here we go again" after WIU scored those two quick TD. big credit to the defense for getting it together. This team's offense is spectacular. All we need is a decent defensive squad to have the potential to be playing beyond thanksgiving.

How long before there is talk about the single season points record?

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

Impressive win by the Jacks, congrats. Makes me feel a little better after my Mustangs come up short against UND.

Your guys offense is completely different with out Prothero as the dive back, Mohamed just doesn't have the same burst as him through the line as him.

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

I said after the Cal Poly game that the defense had one more chance before being labeled a "bad" defense.

Seems to me they answered the challenge this week. Well done, gentlemen. Get better for next week.

Re: 10/1 Western Illinois

Final: SDSU 52, WIU 14.

Christion is one of the best QBs in the FCS. He was 22-31, 361 yards and 5 TD.

Goedert caught 8 passes for 204 yards and 4 TD.

Wieneke caught 7 balls for 102 yards.

Jacks scored 45 unanswered points after being down 14-7.

Rozeboom and Dallas Brown with pick sixes. Huge response by the defense after giving up 14 points in the first quarter. They played really well, still need the D-line to play better.

Jacks are at Southern Illinois next Saturday. Another big game.
