they dang near took it to the ags.
"Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity."
I hope that someday we will be able to put away our fears and prejudices and just laugh at people.
Texas State has a QB who will be playing on Sundays. Their little TB could also be a third down-type of back or a kick returner and one of their wideouts could go to the next level.
Awesome, awesome talent for a I-AA team. I'd pick their QB ahead of just about any other college QB in a pickup game. He's almost on that Matt Leinart/Vince Young level.

heck yeah that texas state qb is a stud....he is huge...6'5 and he put on some show against the aggies....that was awesome...i believe his name is barrick nealy...and that little 5'7 runningback did really well against a&m too...
Did you see that game, RoTex? That QB single-handedly pulled them back into the game.
Better than any I-AA QB I've ever seen. The second-best was probably a kid from Eastern Illinois a few years ago, and Nealy's head and shoulders above that guy.

heck yeah i didnt miss a play of that game just because it was close....that qb had the ablilites and skills of a big named college qb...he was awesome....i was hoping they would pull off the huge upset...i dont think people would ever quit talkin about that game if that would have happened...lol
I saw Eastern Illinois play Deleware in the NCAA Div II title game in Longview in ... 1978 I think. Was cold as heck ... about 100 people there.Originally posted by big daddy russ
...Eastern Illinois ...
They have a pretty decent little program up there. Seems like they're hovering around the top 15 every year.Originally posted by 3afan

The Ohio Valley Conference usually has some pretty tough teams, though they're in a bit of a funk this year.
