Over/Under for remaining games!

Post by factman »

I am setting the line at 10,000 fans in the over/under for BG's remaining home games.

Place your bets here! :wink:

Is that total for all three games or 10,000 per game?

You are right Factman. All those bandwagon fans get off-ya stink. We'll be alright. If you think that 2 losses in conference play still won't win the league you are crazy. I wonder if Fresno is trying to run their coach out of town this morning like people around here are trying to do. Fresno was beaten by Hawaii 32-29 and they too were 21 point favorites.

Did you see the highlights of that game??? Each team was blocking FG's! I couldn't believe HI beat Fresno in Fresno. It happens.

I am royally pissed about losing a game yesterday we had no business losing. Tomorrow I'll be looking forward to the Akron game. It's how fans are...but I was very disappointed in the lack of effort and enthusiasm of our team for the most part. It seemed a lot like that Oregon State/USC game. USC didn't look like they wanted to play that night.

I know it happens to most teams but man does this loss hurt. Everyone in the East has at least one loss already. But I don't see anyone in the East beating Ball State, CMU or WMU at this point. Those 3 are the best teams in the MAC so far.

C'mon BG....TAKE IT OUT ON AKRON!!!!!!!!

AND... we don't play any of them. We'll get tough games out of NIU and UT, who could also beat anyone any given week, but some of the other contenders in the East have to play one or more of those three (without looking at schedules).

So the season is NOT over, but the margin for error just got shrunk a whole bunch.

Are you confident that we can beat anyone left on the schedule? EMU was the most winable game left and we know how that turned out.

Sad thing is we are capable of winning everyone of the remaining games,,,and we are capable of losing in all of them as well. Sadly, you just never know which team is going to show up.

I'm confident we CAN beat everyone left on the schedule. If we WILL beat everyone left on the schedule just became more of a crapshoot.

The only thing I can figure out now is that we're not as good as the team that beat Pitt and we're not as bad as the team that lost to EMU. Where we fall in the middle is the frustrating part to figure out.

Should we be confident that we can beat everyone left on our schedule? Sure. We beat a Pittsburgh team that is now 4-1, forced a tough Boise team to punt in all 7 of its possesions in the second half and beat a Wyoming team on the road when the line was BG favored by only 3 and we crushed them. Why shouldn't we feel we can beat everyone left on our schedule.

What's the over/under for the rest of the year on cowboy's posts that don't mention a point spread? 1?

Facts are facts, my man. If you get on Brandon, then get on Urban, Pete Carroll, and Fresno's coach.

How could college football's do no wrong coaches Urban and Carroll lose when favored by more than 30 at home? Shame on them. With all of those 5 star players on their roster that should never happen. Right Jacobs? But when it happens to us then the sky is falling right?

This past Saturday is exactly why the game is played ON THE FIELD and not by what the experts predict

If you are at work and enjoy a nice constitutional in the lavaratory, that's not really my concern.

If you come and take a dump in my closet, we're going to have a problem.

Also, I'm going with the under.

The fact you even dare to compare Brandon to Meyer and Carroll tells me all I need to know about your football acumen. These guys have won national championships and Brandon has yet to win the MAC. Do Meyer and Carroll teams have ocassional off games? Undoubtedly. With Brandon-led teams its become a pattern.

It may be time to get down from your horse cowboy and sit around the campfire until you get your head together.
