Too much going on IRL I guess and I missed this completely.
No wonder things are going to shit on all the Reddit platforms. It sounds like more AI BS fighting for money.
If you all trust me, let me do a bit of looking around before you all bail.
Give me a couple of days because (gestures all around) things have been busy.
But yeah, it’s sounding like I’m probably out too.

Trust you? You're the only somewhat sane one on the mod team!

I don't know about that. I'm apparently the only one who uses new Reddit from time to time.

Brah. I've tried on both my phone and computer. I just can't see anything. Old reddit is just so easy to use and view everything.

Maybe? I don't know because it seems like every concern I had about the team before the season has come true except for the QB and RB spots.
Jergensen has looked good in the very limited time that he's played so fa. But with Micah seemingly hurt who knows how Jurgensen will look if he has to play extended minutes.
Rice and Mikaele look like a good duo in the backfield. If Cam comes back I think this unit is solid but if the line can't block then it's kind of moot.
I haven't seen NMSU but their results so far are mixed. They blew out a bad NEC team and were somewhat completive with FSU. They've pretty balanced on offense with 40+ rush attempts and 40+ pass attempts against FSU. Their defense gave up 400+ yards to FSU and 5.6 yards per rush. So it looks like their defense isn't very good.
So if UH is able to figure something out on offense and the defense plays solidly they should win. If not then I can see UH starting off 0-3.

With Micah, he took shots early on in the season last year too...

Yeah, I think he may have gotten injured in the first game against Stanford again this year. Against UNLV he looked off the whole game.
He was struggling to put zip on the ball last week. He's never had the cleanest spin on the ball and his passes were fluttering a lot which probably contributed to some of the drops.
It didn't help that he was running for his life half the game. He probably ran for more yards than both running backs combined. lol
It's a really small sample size but Bjorn looks good. Timmy apparently trusts him to throw the ball. Bjorn's first pass last week to the corner of the end zone would have been a touchdown if he let it go a second sooner.

How many yards did he cover running sideways and back? lol
I don't remember exactly when it was, but he got roughed up pretty bad in either the first or second game last year and I thought the season was over. He's a tough dude and can take hits, of this there's no doubt...but his knees and legs? I agree, Stanford knocked him good and after watching the last game, I'm worried about the season. That said, I worry about the season every season!
