Yes. Has not thrown much at all Pre game or at half. Clearly he is injured.

As was said in another thread, Elon isn't doing anything fancy. They're just solid and take advantage of bad matchups. And they make their field goals.

33-20, Elon, 10:20 left.

Running game has been abandoned in second half.

looks like this is shaping up to be a well deserved loss. Our OL is being totally outplayed. Our pass coverage has been really poor. Our special teams have had a bad day. Too many underthrown passes. Poor game plan.

2022 William and Mary redux.

High hopes dashed by a team that is playing better football.

This was the game I had mentally pencilled-in to gauge where we are.

We still struggle with basic stuff, and all the gee-whiz receivers and running backs don’t fix that.
I do whatever the Rice Krispies tell me to do.

Stupid football gives us a chance. Can we take advantage?

Cumby had one carry, there was at least a couple sacks. Idk

Most of offense was trying to hit bombs down sideline in 2H.

And Elon's special teams are light years ahead of Hens'.
