SDSU FG with 1:29 left. 10-6 Coogs
Well, that was something. 2 runs and thatâs it. COOGS get the ball first in the 2nd.
Halftime, 10-6 COOGS
Applewhite scared. First game as a head coach, doesnât want to mess up.
I was upset with how we ended the half. No reason not to throw on either 1st or 2nd down since they had no timeouts. That was just scared.
They definitely donât look like the Coogs that beat OU and Louisville.
The momentum didnât shift because of the penalty. San Diego State didnât even get a field goal out of that.
They made a couple of adjustments on offense and our defense was on their heals the 2nd quarter against one of the best running games in the FBS. They still held them to two field goals.
Our first drive in the second half is very important because our offense had only one good drive the whole first half.
People forget we are missing more than half the coaching staff.
