I noticed the press was very critical of NC A&T win over FAMU this past weekend. Granted, most of the criticism comes from the head coach himself. So I guess the media just feeds off of what he has to say about the game.
I think the Aggies are entitled to have a bad game and still win. Lets not forget, FAMU should have won their game against NCCU. They do make a lot of mistakes but they are not a bad team. And, it was their Homecoming so they were not going to go down without a fight. I told a friend of mine, I was a little concerned about this game because I thought A&T was going to have a little Homecoming fatigue going into the game. I think I was right. However, they did win and I would like to see them play much better in the second half of future games. They tend to build big leads in the first half and take the second half off. They must develop a killer instinct!!!!
The game that went under the radar Saturday was NCCU vs Gardnerwebb. This is the same team NC A&T dominated 45-3 to open the season. NCCU racked up over 400 yards of total offense but could only manage to scored 24 pts. Had it not been for a big play due to a mix in coverage on GWs part. GW would have won this game. The only thing that was said in the media, “It wasn’t pretty but they found a way to win” I think the same can be said about the Aggies and a lot of other teams this past weekend.
