Did Stick really rush for all 3 rushing TDs? The stat sheet says so...

McPherson was a beast and Barriere will improve. EWU was tougher than I thought, but Bison toughed it out today--better prepared in all phases and Easton would not be denied. Best of luck to the seniors and Klieman. Now lots of time to discuss the 2019 version of the Bison that we'll see in about 8 months. Reversion to the mean or continuation of excellence, despite the graduation of a large senior class?

Maybe it was his doppelganger. He also led the team in rushing with 128 yards.
Re: EWU Post Game Thoughts
How can the guy who scored 5 TDs not be the MOP?

How many of those PATs were from the right hash?
The fact that a right footed kicker on the right hash that close can’t see what you’re aiming for, the ball will usually hook right to left, and trying to pull the ball across your body make that kick a lot more difficult than most folks realize. I’m sure the solid footing <purplez> provided by the grass helped make a difficult kick even easier.

1) NONE of the PATs were from the right hash.
2) It was a hook alright. But I don't think that field position was COMPLETELY to blame.....It was either a poor hold or he just flat out miss-hit it....because it was a real shanker.
3) For those familiar with a college football practice, place kickers spend oodles of time in relative solitude. They spend countless hours practice kicking from every conceivable position, angle, and distance.
4) Cam is a senior......He's been doing the aforementioned for a looonnng time and has been an important part of the program. He earned the right to be called upon in that situation.
5) He missed a field goal. Doesn't make him a bad guy or a bad player.
6) My point is: It was a prudent decision to attempt a field goal in that particular situation.

Ballots due with 5 min left in game. Also, 2 picks. Also it's the media and shep is a good story.

I agree for the most part but going for it and not converting would have put EWU inside the 5 to start with instead of the 25.
