  • I wish I knew which segment of F_U's offense is the strongest. They can definitely move the ball and it being a Florida team you can be sure that it's probably the running game. If it is then we have a very good chance of flying home with a win because I now feel confident in our defense especially the run stopping part. I can give kudos to the secondary now as they have done well too but I think that our blitzes are keeping the QBs nervous. I haven't seen this kind of Miner ball in a long time, well, since Seth Joyner(?) who went on to play for the Cowboys for a number of years and did quite well. Jeepers, is he the one I'm thinking of? Anyway, I remember the Miners having a great defense in those years and it seems that they're getting there. I sure am glad that most of our players are not seniors that's a big plus.

    Anyway, I don't know a thing about F_U and how strong they are but it's too early. As soon as I gather more info on F_U and who is favored (as if that's made a difference) I'll post my score. Until next week my friends.

  • The powers that be have determined that the Miners are Great Danes.  Opening at 14 points lesser than FAU they have determined to lower it to 11.5 points and the over/under is 48.5.

    La Tech was 7 points favored and we beat them by 27. Does it mean that we may win by 20 against the Floridians?

  • I think the final score was 19-3 vs La Tech.  We beat NMSU by 27.

    I really think it is going to come down to taking care of the ball.  We can't consistently give good teams short fields.  We should be able to run on them which favors our style of game.  Air Force ran for 446 on them and beat them 31-7.
