McNeese State-27, East Texas A&M-24-Instant Reaction

We fumbled the opening kickoff. The OPENING kickoff. Our defenive tackling is extremely poor. We knew their QB could run and he ran all over us. Our offense moved the ball well and found a way to blow it once they got inside the 10. Our running game is still strong and the O-Line is…

Instant Reaction-Tulsa-42, East Texas A&M-0

A game where we looked like at first we would put up a fight, or at least make it interesting. It got less interesting as the Hurricanes poured on the points. I thought the defense would be our saving grace, but it was obvious they were exhausted and the flood gates opened and what was…

Game Balls-Northwestern State

Jack Jacobs-You probably didn’t know this, but Jack Jacobs had never made a start in college. In fact, he had never taken A SNAP at Quarterback in College. He had not seen game time since he was a Senior in High School at St. Francis High School in Southern California. His first college start and…

East Texas A&M Lions-38, Northwestern State-14-Instant Reaction

I mean, a win is a win. This is one of those games that you will have to have watched from start to finish. It wasn’d as dominant as it could have been, but it did not look quite as bad as some might think. It was a gritty win. The game was won in…

Division I Diatribes-Needs Before Wants

East Texas A&M Lions-7, Stephen F. Austin St.-44-Instant Reaction

Let’s start with this obvious fact. SFA kicked our butts in every way, shape and form. I really dont know what else to say. Its one thing to play hard and lose, its another thing to play sloppy, turn the ball over, Everything I praised us for NOT doing last week, we did this week.…

Lion Football: It Ain’t Easy Being E-Rod

Back in 2005, I remember an interview I listened to with former Texas Tech Quarterback Cody Hodges. He played QB at Tech from 2001-2005. He was from Hereford, a local guy and had a storied high school career, but he was now moving into his Senior year after Texas Tech had left the middle of…

East Texas A&M-15, # 17 Mercer-23-Instant Reaction

A very winnable game. At the start of the game, Mercer looked like they were going to buzzsaw their way after both teams traded 3 and outs. Then the Lions were within two scores before the offense handed Mercer their final 7 points. Turns out to have been the difference. The Lions had some great…

2026 East Texas A&M Lions Football Preview

Overview: August of 2022 was the start of a new journey for the East Texas A&M football program and indeed, the entire athletic department. However, in Texas, specifically rural Northeast Texas, football comes first, middle, and last in regards to what needs to be a winning program. Anything else is considered a disappointment. 2026 East…

Division I Diatribes-“Why Don’t We Have Baseball?”

I get a lot of questions asked about ET athletics all the time, especially after the move to Division I. They are usually ones that are redundant, such as “When are we going to get a new stadium or renovate the existing one?” “What is going to happen to the Fieldhouse?” “Why can’t we have…

Unsung Heroes Vol. 3-1996 Texas A&M-Commerce Lions Football
