  7. Texas A&M 38, #15 Arizona State 17 Final

    My take on the Aggies game - if you should care:

    1.  Kirk is the real deal - 2 years then Pro loved the way  the coaches were quoted as saying he was a team player - but do have flash backs of "Thrill" Hill and the Heisman comments after 1 game

    2.  Defense appears to be much improved and much more aggressive - if that continues could help A&M turn the corner

    3.  Conner struggled at first and still appears to have a long way to go - but (1) the 2nd half was much better and (2) was impressed with his comments after the game on being taken out for Murray - not one gripe

    4.  Murray - expect them both to play a lot as that give the offense two distinct types of offenses with basically the same personal - could work in their favor

    5.  O-Line looked over whelmed in the first half and that affected Conner it was obvious

    6.  Was a good win but too soon to place them into the playoffs - still a long hard season

    7.  Spavital should be replaced

     

    You do mean Kyle...not Conner, right?

    and Kirk will be there 3 years...that's the minimum.  He and Mack both for 3 years and still one more for Garrett....SCARY!

    As noted in previous posts Spavital's playing calling at times was horrible.  Only a few concerns for this one game sample.  O line play worried me but I think it'll work itself out. Really like the spark that Murray provided when the offense was sputtering...until Spav had a brain fart and wouldn't let the kid play.  The D...WOW!  Loved seeing the entire unit swarm to the ball!  Garrett, Hall and Mack will be a terror for any opposing line.  After Mack blew through the line on his first play he was double teamed as was Garrett at times and he still did his thing.  Hall really impressed me now that he's healthy.  It's obvious that the Chavis signing was the biggest addition.

  11. COACH ALVAREZ BACK AT STATE!!!

    After broadcasting Kirbyville games for several years while Alvarez was there he was known to pull out the old hook and ladder.  It was always thrown to a split out wideout and the RB would be on a wheel route to take the pitch from the WR.  However, the formation that they ran the H&L from in this game was a thing of beauty.  Pass to the TE on a 5 yard stop amongst the LB's and then the toss to the RB coming underneath on a drag was well designed.  Couldn't help but laugh as the play developed on a 3 & 19.  Talk about gutsy and that is Jack.  I remember when he was in his first few years at Kirbyville that he ruffled feather as it seems he did at Ennis but in no time he had the entire town invested into what he was selling.  Great guy and coach and couldn't be happier for him, Vanya and Ted Williams....both left K-ville with him for Ennis.  Also saw his old OC and now K-ville HC Neece on the sideline rooting on his good friend.  I thought people said the wing T wouldn't work in a big school....

    I'll agree with Jereme in that this was one of if not the best games I've been a part of broadcasting.  From the first 5 minutes when we looked at each other and thought oh boy this could be bad to the Wildcats VERY physical defense.  I've not seen a defense fly around and lay the wood like that in a while.  Very tough loss for the Cats but they will be back.  They are a very resilient bunch and Neece has then going in the right direction.
