I've had this game on the wife-approved schedule since the beginning of the season.  Sure, it's the D3fb second string but I'll be there.   ;D

Looks like great football weather, subject to change of course:

Saturday through Sunday
Partly cloudy. Highs in the upper 70s. Lows in the mid 50s.

Hey...to all the Monday posters (above),

Thanks for the information.  I wish we could get the results of the JV games.  I don't find it on the websites...

Good luck to #49!!!

If any of you go to the game, give us a report!

So far the HSU JV:

Lost to New Mexico Military
Beat Howard Payne
Beat Cisco
Beat McMurry
Lost to ACU
Lost to Cisco

I think they could have beat New Mexico and ACU had they not played every player.  They have some guys that are not that good or are so young they still don't know what is going on.  For example Ryan Hinajosa played in the New Mexico game and was doing very well.  After a couple of series they switch in someone else.  Ryan is now on varsity as the back up.  Sure that JV time helped him establish himself.

It is good that everyone gets to play but it also limits the better ones.  It would be nice if they only took the first and second string players on the away games and then played them the entire game.  They would do a lot better as a team and the better players would get more experience.  My son gets about 16 plays or so each game.  It varies though and sometimes he gets a little more and sometimes a little less.  But I have seen some very good players on JV.

HSU 24 UMHB 10


Handled business tonight, pretty close game tonight also!!!!

minni

I told a few guys i'd post tonight but im just not feeling it.  And as I was reading im just not seeing much from the UMHB fans.  Come on tell us whats practice like this week, anything being said on campus, is anyone coming to the game?  Last week ETBU could have taken the conference outright but it seemed like the fans didnt really care much,  not much fan support. 

The JV teams played well tonight I thought.  Typical JV game some mistakes and fumbles but there was some head crackin going on.  The HSU O-line played the best id seen them play all year tonight.

That sucka Cutty better be ready this week.  This week will be the test of my three headed monster.  What will they do against the caliber of defense they havent faced all year.  (maybe UW-Stevens Point but i wasnt there)  Get ready Cowboys, hopefully ill be there ready and waiting friday night!!!!!(If they let me, thats just how I do)

To all questions/comments regarding the post about the commissioner's suggestion.

I have been on umhb's couch cru for 5 years. The couch cru has grown amazingly and as it has, so has the noise produced from the crowd. I agree that the refs at Kyle Field never tell the fans to quiet down. I also know that this suggestion was made b/c of the noise the couch cru made during the MC game 2 weeks ago. In that game the referees had the power to calm us down if they felt that we needed it, however there was never a penalty thrown on us. In fact I talked to the head referee during halftime and it didn't seem like a big deal. I believe that this is taking away a home field advantage of sorts. Also, you make the rules before the season and you live with them. If D3 makes a rule of no artificial noise makers such as during playoffs, then all schools will be forced to abide by that, but there should never be a rule change in the middle of the season, especially around fan noise. You know when you go to play at a few stadiums in the ASC their is going to be lots of fan noise. Teams should know this and develop whatever means necessary to communicate.

Yes there will be fans at the hsu/umhb thriller on saturday. That seems to be a silly question seeing that some of us traveled on a bus to three games over 24 hours away. Plus we know that this is the game for umhb. If we lose it's over, if we win we have a chance at playoffs. Don't worry we will have fan support.

Zmotion,

It sounds like the JV is having a good year.  That is really good news.  The Cowboys always seem to bring in quality players.  I would think the JV would be extra strong if there weren't so many freshmen playing on varsity.  I've been around five years and can't remember this many freshmen contributing on varsity.

I feel your pain about PT.  Four years ago my wife and I took off work early and made a 4-1/2 hour trip to Abilene to see our son play on Monday night.  As luck would have it, we arrived a few minutes late and missed his 12 plays.  We did get to take him to dinner and then drove back home so we could be back at work the next morning.  I wish I could say it gets a lot better, but it still seems like quality PT is limited due to the outstanding talent 2 & 3 deep.  I guess if you can get used to it, it is a good problem to have.

Lets go COWBOYS, get a Crusader!!!!

I agree.  As a fan I like to make noise.

How things never change.  That is exactly what we do with our son.  The game is fun and I'm sure all the players and their parents wish their son would get to play more.  But it is the dinner after the game --  that is where we get that quality time with him.  Talking about the game and the week's practice and having all of Dad's questions answered.  HSU is such a great University.  My poor son -- I have everything all planned out for him and he gets to hear it every Monday night.

I can't wait for him to get to play on Saturday.  Thanks for the insight.

Minni, sorry I cant make it.  We play in San Antonio on Sat.  I wish I could be there.  That tailgate sounds like a treat.
Noise makers should be allowed.  Its part of the game.  Sounds like it will be a great match up.  I hope one of the teams doesnt forget to show up.  When HSU makes the playoffs, I'll show.  I'll bring a couple other coaches with me.
