NCAA Week 1 Review: #1 Alabama Just Dominates!
By Steve Gale

The 2012-2013 season is underway and with it #1 Alabama is starting off just like they ended last season. Winning! The Crimson Tide rolled over Michigan to a score of 35 to 10. The Tide jumped out to a 28 point advantage and never looked back.

I imagine that the poor performance of Michigan QB Denard Robinson will be something that will keep him from winning the Heisman. Robinson was 8 of 23 for 102 yards. He had 13 carries for 44 yards as well. The Crimson Tide defense really man handle Michigan.

TOMORROW, We'll have our interview with OC Matt Crock. It'll be interesting to see how he responds to losing WR Austin Franklin. Also on Friday we will have The Matchup Preview vs The Ohio Bobcats for you as well.

Now heres The New TOP 25, Players of The Week,Heisman Watch, and a some noteable games to keep a eye out for in Week 2.

Week 1 Interview w/OC Matt Crock
By Steve Gale

With the Aggies traveling to Ohio, I was able to meet up with OC Matt Crock before they left to face the Bobcats. The offense looked pretty good against Sacramento State. Hopefully the passing attack will improve as defense key in on stopping the run.

Heres the interview!

Gale: Your offense had a strong showing in the win against the Bobcats. What was the main key to the success of the offense?

Crock: I would have to say our ablility to overcome our own mistakes. We had 2 turnovers which is something we can not afford to do on a weekly basis. Even with those 2 turnovers and with the defenses help we were able to overcome them.

Gale: Injuries really hit your WR's in the opening game. You lost WR's Austin Franklin & Darrius Preston for multiple weeks. You also then had to unredshirt WR's Joespth Matthews & Adam Shiparo. How have the injuries thus far affect the offense moving forward?

Crock: Its something that you just have to adapt to. Now is there some wrinkles I had planned that I won't use now? Sure, but you just gotta move forward.

Gale: The passing game seemed to struggle at times. How do you plan to improve in that area?

Crock: In camp and practice leading up the passing game looked great. I think it was just first game jitters. We have worked on it this week and it looked great again. If its something after the Ohio game is still a problem then we will take a different approach from there.

Gale: This is your first road game of the 2012-2013 season. What are some road challenges you have worked on with your offense?

Crock: Just staying focused and not allowing the other teams fans getting to you. Just worry about what ur suppose to do and we will be alright.

Gale: Whats the key to the offense for the game at Ohio, vs The Bobcats?

Crock: No stupid mistakes. That means no turnovers,no mental lapses, and no dumb penaltys. If we can do that our offense has a chance to be successful each drive.



Tomorrow we will have The Matchup Preview at Ohio Bobcats. Be sure to check it out!!

Matchup Preview vs Ohio

By Steve Gale

If The Aggies have any hope in winning this game against a tough Ohio Bobcat squad it will come down to the Aggie defense. OLB Bryan Bonilla and the rest of the linebacker core will most likely have to be the playmakers for the defense.

The Bobcats are coming on a impressive win over Penn State. They won the game at Penn State. The score was 10 to 3. Frank Solich has built a very solid program at Ohio. They run a pistol offense that leans towards the running game.

The offense is led by QB Tyler Tettleton. He is a dual threat qb which could give the aggies lots of trouble. Redshirt Junior Beau Blakenship is also another threat in both the running and passing game the defense will need to key on. In the passing game there is not one true threat. So the defensive backfield will need to play solid as a whole.

On the defensive for the Bobcats look out for Senior LOLB Alphonso Lewis. Him and the rest of the front seven will look to shutdown New Mexico State's Spread Power Option Attack. If needed look for FS Gerald Moore to come up in the box to assist in stopping the run and for him to try and create some turnovers.

The experts have Ohio winning this game. I'm on the fence about it. I think Ohio is prime for a letdown but I'm just not sure of this Aggie defense. So I think the Aggies will suffer their first loss of the season.

New Mexico State 20
Ohio 38

Below is some Matchup Preview Stats for you die hard fans. Lets hope I'm wrong and The Aggies can pull out the upset.

INSTANT CLASSIC!!!
By Steve Gale
((((ESPN CLASSIC #1 SCORE: 2697)))

Your New Mexico State Aggies improve to 2-0 after a instant classic thriller over The Ohio Bobcats! The Aggies won the game on a 53 yard Hail Mary throw by QB Andrew Manley to WR Kevan Walker who broke a tackle at the 5 and dove into the end zone for the win.

Most of the game was a defensive battle due to the poor weather conditions. The field was like a mud pit with players falling down left and right. That was until the 4th quarter where the up temp offenses of both teams seemed to deplete the defenses and a scoring frenzy errupted.

QB Andrew Manley was named Player of The Game with a 180.7 QB RTG,20 of 36,403 yards,4 TD and a INT.

Tomorrow we will have more in depth coverage of the game but for now enjoy the box score, and your Aggies being 2-0 to start the 2012-2013 season!!
