That's a great point, Joe. I didn't think of that angle. The West is the better of the two right now, but not by much.JoeFalcon wrote:It sounds like he's attempting to preemptively justify another rough year for an athletic director that just fired UT's two other high profile coaches.Falconfreak90 wrote: Toledo Tom is making some BiG statements.
I don't see the West being head and shoulders above the East at all.
Definitely. The 3 co-champions of the East (BG, Miami and Buffalo) from last year return most of their players. ESPN predicts Kent to get to their first bowl in 36 years while Akron and Temple have compiled the best recruiting classes in the league over the past couple years if the experts are to be believed. CMU and BSU are solid but not unbeatable, and the rest of the West division teams are dangerous but filled with plenty of question marks.Falconfreak90 wrote: That's a great point, Joe.

Certainly. The two divisions are pretty comparable.JoeFalcon wrote:Definitely. The 3 co-champions of the East (BG, Miami and Buffalo) from last year return most of their players.

I love how positive you are once again. Maybe BG should just forfeit since they have no chance of winning.Falconboy wrote:http://bgnewssports.blogspot.com/2008/0 ... ol-ii.html
Realistically , I think the best we can hope for is that our passing game is potent enough to put pts on the board and make this a respectable game. This game honestly the more I think about it could get BC ugly from last year. It has that potential with our lack of depth at D-line now with all the shenanigans of several weeks ago and a virtually new O-line that hasn't gelled yet. This Pitt team is certainly no Minny. Prognostications aside, we'll know just how good or not good Pitt is supposed to be in about 27 or so odd days.
Matt Cavanaugh is the O-coordinator at Pitt. Enough said. Pitt has a new O-line as well. I don't think their offense is potent enough to get ugly. BG needs to score early and keep McCoy off the field. This game is winnable
Their D-line is pretty nasty...Flipper wrote:I think we're gonna hang at least 150 yards rushing up on the Panthers....call it a hunch...or maybe a delusion, but that's the number I'm seeing.

That's not even accurate. He was definitely called after 12pm...footballguy51 wrote:That's hilarious. The newsroom called him to make fun of him because of us.
Thats what I'm expecting, the same type of game plan we used vs Minny last year. Just like that game we'll need a fast starthammb wrote:I don't think we'll have 15 rushing attempts in the game against Pitt. We need the best of Tyler Sheehan to win that game, because he'll be hoisting it 50-60 times, IMO.
And they will do that. The running game will need to be in the plans or the same thing will happen. They'll rush the edges and stuff the middle. Any D-Coordinator with a brain will do the same thing.moneymaker02 wrote:i have no problem with that unless they drop 8 like miami did when we continued the try to throw. not making adjustments like that is what ticked me off the most about our losses under brandon.
