Well, it is rivalry week. Throw out the records in this game, it is the Lone Star Conference’s most storied rivalry with over 50 conference titles and 7 National Titles between these two teams, not to mention hall of fame coaches and some great players who have played in this game, it the Hoggies of…
5 Thoughts on this big win and then MVP’s. The Lion offense played out of their minds last night. I have seen teams that have more yards and more points, but this one really stood out to me last night. Luis Perez was a mind boggling 20/24 with 357 yards and 5 TD…
Great Team Win. Post Mortem tommorrow.
SUPER Impressed with the Lions. Defense has played super well and the offense is playing out of it’s mind, sans the very uncharecteristic pick 6 Luis Perez threw. Second half next.
Alright, that day we have all been waiting for. I am headed to Commerce around 4 and hope to get a good hour or so of tailgating in. Hope to see many of you there. Post any thoughts or comments. Will have a halftime thread and a post game thread with thoughts.

Today we sit down with d2messageboard.com user “Zombie8myBrainz” (save the laughing for later) who is a fantastic resource on all things Eastern New Mexico Football. He sat down to answer some questions going into this match up and also on Eastern Football as it stands. Here we go: TLW: “After the 2-0 start, how is…
A few years ago someone asked me if I was an offensive coordinator and could run ANY offense aside from the Air Raid Offense, which one would it be. This was a bit of a setup question as most people know me as a pass first, last, and always guy. I knew my answer, and…
Another big game and they do not get any easier from here, but it you have to take it one game at a time. Eastern is always a tough out and is a top tier LSC team, so here are 5 thoughts regarding this upcoming matchup. I love this game, because it matches up two…
Last night’s game experience was superb. Aside from the win, what everyone saw was the product of what happens when a University’s Brass along with the Athletic Administration, donors, boosters, alums, students, and of course the student athletes come together and create a game day dynamic that was amazing to behold. Let’s get to wrapping…
A few thoughts before I go see the sandman. The Lion defense is special folks. This is a group that really plays hard, fast, physical, and they EXECUTE. Next week will be a bigger test, but hats off to this group. The Atmosphere was amazing. Over 10,000 fans and it felt great to be in…
Total domination by the Lions. Defense has played lights out and Luis Perez has an eternity to throw And is making fantastic decisions. Total team game so far.
On my way to Commerce with my Dad from the Tyler area, I will be posting halftime and final score tabs and keepeing everyone updated.

Once again, we reach out to someone in the know regarding the opposing Football team and what to expect. We found a kindred spirit in Bearcat96 who has been around the WJU program and he provided us with some excellent info. Hat tip to him! TLW: “First, give us the overall thoughts on the game.”…
The matchup this Saturday in Commerce is going to be the polar opposite of what we faced this past week. William Jewell is going to be a much different matchup than playing North Alabama in just about every way, shape, and form. So, lets get to it. William Jewell is in the midst of tough…
A lot to get to as always, so let’s go. After the 8-7 win over North Alabama on Friday, The Lions moved up to # 3 in the nation, the highest ranking the Lions have enjoyed since they were # 2 during the 1988 season. The win was the biggest in the Carthel era and…
Talk about a surreal night. Last night was pretty tough to grade this game but I have more than enough material to do so. The game kicked off about the time I was leaving DFW and going to East Texas for the weekend. Watching a high school game in Van (near Tyler) I was kept…
What. A. Game. I have never seen a sloppier, More mistake filled, lousy game. And I have NEVER been prouder to be a Texas A&M-Commerce Lion fan. This game was very tough to win. It was on the road against a team that expects to win and was playing in the national title last year.…
Few Thoughts: The Lion Defense is playing fantastic. The offense is being doomed by poor execution and lackluster play calling. First down and long draw plays? Let Luis Perez and this vaunted passing attack win this one and use the pass to set up the run. The calls made by the officials, are going against…
