Texas State vs. Northern Colorado game thoughts...

Wow. I think I'll let every Texas State fan who watched the game to take a deep breath. All right...

• First thing first, the Bobcats were handed a win by Northern Colorado. Texas State had every right to lose the game, yet, the Bears fumbled away the chance at the 2-yard line on a simple quarterback sneak.
• The Bobcats' prevent defense is extremely porous.
  
• Texas State allowed UNCO to drive pretty much effortlessly down the field on them in the last two minutes. Even though the Bobcats forced a long fourth down, the Bears converted it and nearly tallied a touchdown on the same play.
• Looking back at the play, it was questionable whether or not the receiver's knee was down before he crossed the plane.
• Quick trivia question: When was the last time Texas State held an opponent to less than 300 yards of total offense?
• Trivia question answer: October 28, 2006 vs. Northwestern State.
• Defensive coordinator Fred Bleil does a good job of calling blitzes, yet, the rushes leave the middle of the field wide open for a long completion. It happened on UNCO's 75-yard touchdown pass in the third quarter.
• Bryan Waggener passed for 392 yards, completing 35-of-51 passes. He tossed three touchdowns and was picked three times.
• Texas State's defense looked improved in the first half, but after the Bears adjusted in the second half, it looked to easy for the home team.
• Someone needs to tell E.J. LeBlanc there is nothing wrong with calling for a fair catch. Much better than backtracking two yards to escape the coverage. UNCO did a good job on punt coverage, but three returns for five yards total isn't what you want to see out of your punt returner.
• The Bobcats snapped their six-year non-conference road losing streak.
