If Liam Hicks wins a World Series ring, he’ll become the first former @AStateBaseball player to do so. But he won’t be the first alum. Former trainer and alum Toshi Nagahara got a ring with the Houston Astros organization in 2022 - ole Tosh is one of the nicest guys around.

Matt Drinkall for president. Or college football commissioner. Whatever it takes.
An evisceration of CFP expansion from CMU coach Matt Drinkall, who says college football is on a "downward spiral" toward a "dumpster fire" and that executives will "prostitute" the sport for financial gain until "people stop caring, just like they did with boxing in the 20s."

Weird stat: No team in college football history has defeated BYU a year after turning down a Pop-Tarts Bowl invite to play BYU the previous season

These first drive penalties perfectly sum up the Blake Anderson era at A-State. Kicking a field goal after USM gave us two first downs through penalty sums up the Butch Jones era.

Happy Travis Ishikawa Day to all who continue to celebrate.
Your yearly reminder that Travis Ishikawa launched a walk-off 3-run homer to win the pennant on this day. One of, if not the greatest, home runs in Giants history.

The BCS was a much better system than the farce that is coming. Legitimate teams were not included at times. How long before some 7-5 SEC team complains they were left out of the 24 team playoff?
I would rather go back to the BCS than a 24-team playoff.

Blowing up the regular season, against the wishes of almost all fans, just to assuage the egos of a handful of donors placate coaches worried about losing their 8-million-dollar jobs. What a waste.

Just turned over to the ULL/Tech game to hear the ESPN plus announcers refer to ULL as the team down south. Professionalism lives in Ruston.

I’ll give this to Butch. We sure find entertaining ways to lose at home. Last year we had a special teams and defensive score in a loss to ULL. Then there was whatever the hell happened last night.

The guy behind us officially invoked Dandy Don. Going to be a long drive back after this one.

Basically if we score more points tonight than we have against our other 4 FBS opponents combined, we might win. Otherwise…

Highest scoring game against an FBS opponent for A-State this year and it’s only halftime.
HALF: South Alabama 34, Arkansas State 28 All kinds of fireworks in this one. Highest-scoring first half in an FBS game this season, per ESPN2 broadcast. Jaguars get the ball after halftime.

That first half was drunk. I guess the old Fun Belt is back.

Maybe we should’ve gotten the live chicken.

We haven’t won 8 games in the regular season since 2018. It’s ok to be grumpy at this point or even downright unhappy. Unfortunately we now have a lot of apathy. I can’t blame anyone there. That said, I’m still making the 2 hour drive over Thursday to be grumpy in person.
The inability to defeat rivals is beginning to take a heavy toll on Arkansas State football fans. That said, I expect to see everyone at The Cent on Thursday night.

Too many missed opportunities. Ugh. This one was ours for the taking and we didn’t. No one to blame but ourselves. This sucks.
