The Tribe are good, really good. But 1 for 6 on 3rd down is not exactly helping us. I guess we can look for some big yardage in the second half against second and third team defense.

Another flat performance out of the gate. Zero progress and boost from last week. Four first downs in the half. Empty stadium. The list goes on.
People should be upset. No other way to cut it. I'm livid.

There should be no question who out QB is. It's CC. Much better arm and awareness. Not even close.

Watching live stream. How was the crowd today?
Agree coming out flat. Makes no sense.

Very good opponent. WM is big, strong and fast. Elon simply has to play a perfect game against a team like that. Didn't do that today.

I know rain was expected but seriously! Maybe 40 students there. They've got to figure out a way to reinvigorate the student body. I know winning changes everything, but sheesh. That was pathetic indeed.

Too bad it's against the back ups that we move the ball. That game was never in doubt. We picked up 179 of our 388 yards after it was 34-6.
You can take moral victories. I don't.
Things we learned today.
* Team not ready to play. AGAIN.
* CC should be our full-time QB.
* Thomas is going to be a great WR.
* Our pass rush was non existent.
* Students could not care less about football.

If you get a winning tradition,people start to care. I didn't miss a home game from 1993 to 2009. I haven't been to a game in nearly 3 years now. The team, the staff, the players are and have been a bunch of players that shouldn't be in DI for nearly, well since Lembo left.
To get people caring will take more than gradual change and a single win. People will care when we start competing again

People will care when we start competing again sounds like myself, Elon must and I know it's trying to broaden it's fan/phan base and it's hard but really it's the competition. The CAA haves We have played them ALL. We are in the other pile and Have a good shot to compete with Maine and Delaware the last 2 games. Just looking at records. One thing is these guys compete until. At 0-27 they could have quit but they kept slugging it out. I did not see the game but CC completed passes to 9 different receivers. It takes time and developing talent make a football program sustain itself.

I know but the question and comment us that the fan base sucks. My point is the product sucks. Outside of 4 years, we have had terrible performance since 2001.
I got sick and tired of spending fir gas, parking, 4 tickets for the family, drinks to sit and get mad and watch us lose again.
I don't care if the team is incrementally better and fought til the end, a loss is a loss.
And I am doubtful we beat Delaware or Maine

And I am doubtful we beat Delaware or Maine I'm not. I have a good feeling about the final two. And if, if, they do win those two, that gives them 5 wins on the year. That's not incremental gains. That's significant. If...

Homer, you're right, that would be significant. We need CC starting
