If Elko posted on texags, he would be called a "chicken little"

Hilarious. Thank you Coach Elko for injecting some reality into Aggie football

Refreshingly direct. But when is it just talk? I'd argue it isn't yet after an 11-2 year even accounting for the disappointing Carolina, t.u., and DahU games. Plus he followed up on reporter questions and answered in a forthcoming way and in the line discussion took responsibility for the coaches doing what they are paid to do.

Elko is not doom and gloom he just states the facts. you make everything the end of the world.

If Elko is saying that in a presser, behind closed doors he makes me and some of others look like Sunday school teachers

Read between the lines for once

Having said that Owens will run out there as the starter

Morrow hasn't shown to be RB1 and I'm not sure the freshmen are ready to start.

Neither has Owens so far

I think Owens has been slightly better than Morrow. Edward's and Baker look like better runners though.

Count me as one that thinks Mike is awesome in these press conferences. Direct , honest, well spoken, easy to like imo.

Especially liked the answer about the OL play. when asked if he expected the OL play to get better with time . Paraphrasing "We don't expect anything. It's our job to work to figure out ways to make it happen". Proactive winner's mentality.

So it's Owens because he was a 5 star out of high school? Owens gets it by default?
Every RB has to prove on the field besides Owens? Ok.

wow. HUGE reach by you

Owens has looked better than Morrow. as for the freshmen, they look great running but how good are they at blocking?

I got tarred and feathered, AND called "lazy" for calling him that when it was clearly an autocorrect…

I sure hope Elmo, er uh I mean Elko, let's us find out Saturday!

I doubt we will. Owens will probably start until another back proves without a doubt he should be starting.

I think too many people forget that roughly 25-33%* of a player's overall development in college happens during the season, and we are in week 2. It's early and teams will look completely different as the year progresses.

*assumption: most players only see meaningful on field time for roughly 3 years of their college career.

"KJ Edwards came in and provided a spark"
Didn't Elko praise him after the Missouri St game also and say he needed to be more involved? Yet he only has 8 carries total. 3 vs Az St. How about giving him 10-12 touches early vs Kentucky and let's see what happens.

The only pass play I can remember watching Edwards on was in the opener, and he did a great job of picking up the defensive end that had beaten the left tackle.

Small sample size I know, but it was an excellent pickup.

Precisely. But we won't get a good read until the O-Line shapes up.

Owens needs to play the role of Emmitt Smith. KJ will be the starter in another game or 2.... if coach is serious about winning.

We were only up by 4 points going into the fourth, because most of our drives started in ASU territory.
Reed has shown flashes of greatness, but for now is a mid level QB.
Running game only showed flashes when Edwards went in. Until they make the change to him, running game will stay the same.
Oline showed no signs of jelling in the run game.
I agree with the defense, other than the secondary could have been better. But we know what they are capable of.

We had a grand total of 2 plays that went for 20+ yards
