Just started watching. Apparently both teams have only had one possession and the 1st Q is almost over.

And Temple just scored on a garbage option play.

I was actually impressed with the crowd, for a Temple-Nova game. There's barely anyone in the end zones, but it doesn't look too too bad on the side stands. Granted, for the marquee city game of the fourth largest TV market, the attendance is pretty sad, just not as sad as I thought it'd be.

Though the announcers gave some props to the 'Cats they seem to be Temple-centric.

Villanova squashed that option play on the TD --- Temple pulled one out their butt on that one.

That's all I could think, but I don't think the local radio for JMU games takes breaks after a TD AND after the kickoff. Those types of timeouts drive me nuts!! We get one play (the kickoff) and two sets of commercials.

Whitney gets crushed on the option.

Next play gets flushed out of the pocket and throws a pick. :x

The Kitties (with a few exceptions) are doing everything they need to do to win this ballgame.

They're controlling the ball --- if they don't turn the ball over (like that 'floatah' interception Whitney tossed) they can grind it out for the win...

So far their o-line is pushing Temple around for the most part.

Exciting game so far. These mediocre FBS vs excellent FCS games are always fun. Sort of reminds me of a typical UD/Navy game.

I notice Temple's slogan is "Attack the MAC"

May I suggest "Try to Play with the CAA"??
