Central Arkansas Game Thread

Lamar is at Conway for a 6 PM start against the Bears Saturday evening.  This game will show if Lamar is ready for a playoff berth or not.  UCA is ranked #7 in the FCS coach's poll.  A road game against a top ten nationally ranked opponent would be a big feather in Lamar's tail.

I agree, this will be a barometer game of where we are as a team. Hopefully the coaching staff has schemed up some offense this week.

Been on the road so just catching up.  Lamar offense still struggling.  Lamar only one for three on field goal attempts with one blocked and one missed.  Central Arkansas out rushing Lamar 3-1.  Defense has only stopped UCA once.  Passing is similar for both teams.

After swapping punts on both teams first possessions of the second half each team has a nice drive resulting in touchdowns in the third quarter.  UCA has the ball as the game goes from the third to fourth quarters.  Score at the end of three UCA 27 - Lamar 14

Final score UCA 34 - Lamar 14.  In some ways this game was closer than the score shows, but it easily could have been worse.  Biggest difference was rushing yards.  Lamar could not stop UCA with any consistency.  UCA only punted twice.  As usual the play calling seemed somewhat questionable as UCA stopped Lamar three times inside the red zone where the Cards tried to tun the ball when a play action pass would have been a good call on a first down.  UCA just keyed on Griffin and shut him down for the most part in that location of the field.
