So we lose two timeouts and assessed personal foul right off the bat for wearing the wrong jerseys. Second half will begin the same way. Wow. This is the worst NCAA crime that you can commit, I guess. Much worse than targeting.

Nothing to write home about from either side right now really, although EKU is getting to the ball quickly. Yeah, the jersey penalty, doesn't bode well.

No kidding -- the TV announcers say that the head referee told them that he had heard of the "foul", but had never called it in a game before tonight.
Well, ACU dodged a bullet twice in the first few minutes -- EKU had the ball on the 40 and couldn't do a thing with it. They punt and we lose the ball. Then, their offense fails against, then misses the field goal. Whew!

This is the rule:
Note: The uniform diagram in Appendix E may assist in the understanding of these rules. b. Color. 1. Players of opposing teams shall wear jerseys of contrasting colors. Players on the same team shall wear jerseys of the same color and design. 2. The visiting team shall wear white jerseys; however, the home team may wear white jerseys if the teams have agreed in writing before the season. 3. If the home team wears colored jerseys, the visiting team may also wear colored jerseys, if and only if the following conditions have been satisfied a. The home team has agreed in writing prior to the game; and b. The conference of the home team certifies that the jersey of the visiting team is of a contrasting color. 4. If on the kickoff at the start of each half, the visiting team wears a colored jersey in violation of the conditions specified in paragraph 3, it is a foul for unsportsmanlike conduct. PENALTY—Administer as a dead-ball foul. 15 yards at the succeeding spot following the kickoff. If the kickoff is returned for a touchdown, the penalty is assessed either on the try or on the succeeding kickoff, at the option of the home team. [S27] In addition, Officials shall charge a team timeout at the start of each quarter the illegal jerseys are worn, or a foul for delay of the game if all timeouts have been used. 5. If a colored jersey contains white, it may appear only as any of the items listed in paragraph a-2 above.
Gamesmanship by the Maroons.

And these pxp guys are homers. Well, welcome to the wonderful world of ESPN- (ESPN+ would indicate an improvement of some kind).

Honestly, I could care less about the rule or our violation of it. I care about improved play. I'm not seeing it yet. Pretty horrible play so far actually....

ACU is not looking good at all so far.

We look seriously bad and have shown no offensive skill or imagination. Looks like Earle is off. Have to hand it to EKU, they scouted us well, but we have not tried anything different. EKU has shown great pass protection or we are no very adept at pressuring the QB.

I guess these uniforms that we've worn multiple times on the road have to be retired.
Our next step has to be to settle down and get a first down.

The Colonels had the ball for 11:40 in the first quarter and ends up with 134 yards and 10 points. ACU has the ball for 3:20 and we get a total of SIX YARDS. We need to get something going or it will be a long, long bight.
