With Toledo nearly shocking the world, ND game, and BG beating the Gophers, all I can say is:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZWB0VF2vDI

Yeah, it's always disappointing when both programs are down. Nonetheless, looking forward to a fun game. I think it'll be a shootout.

This is worse, at least we were still cracking jokes back and forth. This rivalry is on life support right now on the football side of things.

A win would tie the series back up. Let's win this thing.

Not sure why…I think UT is going to dominate this one. They are bad, but I don’t like the matchup. I have a feeling BG comes out a little cocky and UT jumps on them. BG’s only chance is a bunch of turnovers like they got against UB.

We do not agree on much, but I have this same hunch. I think their QB is a nightmare matchup for BG. The offense will have to break open a ton of huge plays in order to keep it close.

We'll see. Key will be stopping UT on first down, getting them off schedule and behind the chains. I've watched Finn play in a few games and while he can scramble, he is also inaccurate when flushed from the pocket.

I expect this will be a shootout.

We'll have our legit chances. There is no telling how each team is mentally - is BG totally in on this game like two years ago? Is the team completely locked in after the Loeffler vs ref incident ... or the total opposite? Is UT totally deflated after losing any chance at the conference title? Is UT all in on having a realistic chance at a bowl? Just so many mental variables here.

Matchup, their QB is all over the place. Good runner for sure. It will be a preview in a way of the Ohio game.

There is literally no outcome that would surprise me.

Go Falcons!

Back in the day these midweek UT games were a big deal...definitely clock watching in the office to leave for the game. Now...I forgot we were even playing them today. Thanks Mike and Scott...

Also ... after seeing the offense just go nuts on Buffalo, I want to see more of the same. Open up the playbook and go for the big plays early and often. UT is a good defense. Shock them early. Remember two years ago, literally the first play was a 60+ yard run that set the tone of the game before the marching band was seated.

I'm curious how toledo will respond after a deflating loss last week. They're usually fighting for a division title at this point so might be a different mindset tonight
