  1. 15:30 left in the game and Lamar has held A&M SA scoreless while scoring 12 so far. 58-12. BB Knight is he one player I haven't seen that I expected to.
  2. Couldn't catch the beginning of the game but made it at about the thirteen minute mark. Game going about as expected. At the half Lamar is up 46-26. All of the guards appear more than willing to take a shot. The big guys are playing pretty good defense, but offense is still developing. The redshirt freshman Gambrell is the leading scorer with 16 points followed by Holifield with 15 and three others have scored.
  3. Men tip off today at 11 AM. Shouldn't be much more than a scrimmage, but you never know. Will be nice to watch how this team develops and where their strengths might be.
  4. I am not a Coleman fan, but I question the play calling. Seems like Lamar was back to the we're going to establish the run game mode and didn't give Coleman a chance to develop a passing attack until it was too late. Lamar didn't try to pass until it was an oh it's third and forever so let's pass before we punt the two series that McCown was in either. Maybe they were protecting McCown's shoulder but if he wasn't ready to pass, he shouldn't have been in the game.
  5. Volleyball continues to get big wins with another three-set win over Nicholls. That's nine. Next up a revenge opportunity against SLU.
  6. Lamar finally executes a positive offensive drive to get a touchdown with 12:46 left in the game.
  7. Looks like the blowout I was concerned about is underway. Poor execution, lack of creative play calling and self-inflicted mistakes. The old Lamar Cardinals may be back. Defense hasn't done anything special either.
  8. UIW finishes the first half with a 45-yard pass with 38 seconds left to take a 21-3 lead.
  9. Lamar makes a quick drive to finally show a little offense but come up short on another third down and settle for a field goal with 3:36 left in the half.
  10. UIW takes the ball after Lamar fails on fourth and one, with another drive and score to go up 14-0 with 6:48 left in the half. No offense Lamar better find some.
  11. Not a good start for Lamar. LU goes three and out on their first three possessions. UIW made a nice drive on their first possession for a touchdown and the lead. Coleman started and led the first two possessions for Lamar; McCown came in for the third possession. End of the first quarter.
  12. Don't say I agree but, Coleman was the starter before getting hurt and while I think McCown is the better choice a lot of coaches don't believe a starter should lose their job because of injury once they're healthy again and McCown may not have had a full week of practice.
  13. I may be giving UIW more respect than the deserve, but Lamar definitely hasn't played the upper half of the conference based on the standings yet.
  14. I agree with Lamar as a playoff team even finishing 2-2 as long as neither is a blowout loss. I'm concerned that this week has the most potential for a blowout loss.
  15. I expect this to either be a very tight game or Lamar to get blown out. I'm not sure if Lamar's pass defense is strong enough to hold UIW down. Also, I think Lamar defense has allowed too many big plays.
  16. Just read the Cardinal website article about the scrimmage and was glad to see that Gambrell scored eleven. As I recall he was a big time scorer in high school before he was signed and wound up redshirting last year for whatever reason. I'm hoping he develops and stays.
  17. I think with RGV breaking into the top 25 there is a strong chance that a 9-3 Lamar could still make it to the playoffs as a third SLC school. Lamar has the victory over South Dakota and although their record does not show it UIW is still a very dangerous team as shown by their wins over Big Sky fourth place school Eastern Washington and UAC second place Abilene Christian.
  18. UIW outscores RGV in the second half but the hole was too deep. Cards better be ready as UIW has an explosive passing offense.
  19. Half time in both of the late games. ETAM and SFA are tied, but it looks like SFA is beginning to take control. RGV is up 35-0 over UIW. Next weeks game is very scary as I believe UIW is capable of putting together a really good game against anybody and it will be just Lamar's luck that they do so next week.
  20. Lamar wins 41-14. Cards finish with 256 yards rushing and 177 yards passing. Defense holds to NWST to just 23 yards rushing. Good win for LU now to focus and play well against UIW.
  21. Lamar using almost all second teamers now on defense also.
  22. Second string execute a solid drive ending with another rushing touchdown. Lamar now up 41-14.
  23. Cards bring in the back up quarterback Powell for the upcoming drive. Actually, the Cards have brought in a lot off back ups for this possession.
  24. Demons hit a 78-yard pass with 9:15 left in the game to close the gap to 34-14. Lamar defender fell down just as the pass arrived. Cards pass defense needs to improve.
  25. End of the third quarter with Lamar up 24-7.
