I invoke the "wounded tiger theory" and the revenge motive, then subtract the home advantage:

UNT 35

FAU 31

Mark it down!

Jeesh guys, La-LA is not exactly LSU, but they owned us running the football. At times it was like watching a bowling ball go though the pins... We really do have some talented players, but they are just not jelling yet. (I think next year we are a much better D) I hate doing it, but reality sets in...

FAU - 34

NT - 14

Patrick Cobbs - 120 Yards rushing and a TD.

Johnny Quinn - 70 yards receiving and a TD

...And, we really need to see some talented-newbies take the field late in games. These players havent seen much action. Now is definently the time to see what they have. I'm looking at the rest of this season like early spring ball, and it does bring some of my enthusiasm back. I support these guys no matter who takes the field, but let's get the biggest bang for the buck. I would like to see Phillips and Kellen Haynes get reps at QB, Evan Robertson at RB, and let's find out what we have with Roy Covington and Casey Fitzgerald at WR. On D, I would now just hold Isaac Thomas out for this season, so let's rotate some backup players who may need game experience for next year. I would start rotating Holman and Graves with Colt Mahan outside. I think Toby Nwigwe RS'd, but will be fun to watch in the spring. The DL rotation is already pulling in just about everyone. Not sure what to do with DB's, but I would like to see more of the backups...Cliff Higgs and Tyrone Carter for example.

No, I'm not giving up...I'm cheering up. We could have a good team to look forward to next season. I'm ready to see part of the future now.

Just my 2-cents worth...

All I want out of this is to get the bench emptied and give game experience to anyone who is part of the future. If this is a rebuilding season, let's build something.

I'll take a win, though

Why not play as hard and as long as they can to help PC have the chance to play on Sundays. He has been a great player for this team and a leader, now is the time for them to work their butts off for him!!!!

I like PC as much as anyone does but team goals and team improvement trump individual goals everytime. I'm sure PC would say the same.

I agree. I'd like to think NFL coaches will look past this year- the problems with his numbers this year are more than out of his control.

If the game becomes a L, then I'd like to think Dickey hit them with every play and player we have. It's a good idea to bring the new guys in for some reps.

NT by 3-7 points if its win.

FAU by 7-14 if they win.

Hey guys, a cajun fan here. I just noticed this statement and you are right, we arent LSU, but we do have the 9th ranked Rushing offense, so yall havent been the only team getting run on by the cajuns, I wouldent worry about it, you just caught a team whos lives almost entirely by the run right now.

Personally, I understand the pessimism after a loss, cuzz my cajuns were 1-5, and I was way down, but guys, I saw so much for yall to look forward with. I watched yall earlier this year against Troy, and that team I saw the other night would have beaten troy by 3 TD's. Meager looked very confused in the troy game, where as in the UL game he looked like a true leader. I mean he threw a pick in his first 3 passes. Most young QB's tank it, but he came back out and kept flinging it. Yall are still a good team, and I'm glad my team has a chance this year, cuzz yall are gonna be VERY good next year.

One last thing...this is a prediction thread right...

UNT-31/FAU-7

UL-31/FIU-21

I think we lose this game and ULM....but win the home finale. I'm also not too optimistic about next year. What are people seeing in this D that says they'll be better next fall??

As for this week, FAU is too fast and athletic on D....therefore our Offense will be down this week....lucky for us, FAU doesn't have much offense either so it won't be a blowout.

FAU - 24

UNT - 13

      Meanwhile we finished higher than Minnesota in NET last year. Actually they haven't finished higher than us since 2020. Was this post on Twitter?

      Mike Mitchell Jr. was out. He's a starter and Minnesota could've really used his shooting. Not as familiar with the other players but they're reserves. This game was a big data point for the Massie over Newell position!

      Awesome win! The only bad part was the commentary from the TV announcers. They confused Newell and Lorient for an extended period of time, stated that Atin Wright originally played at Washington State, and clearly barely knew anything about our program. The play by play announcer gave major 'and boom goes the dynamite' vibes. Some thoughts on the game: - The defense was stellar as we've all come to expect. Delo and Massie were great playing multiple matchups. - Minnesota came out and blitzed our PnRs. We really struggled with the pressure. Eventually we started slipping screens and setting brush screens to counteract it. - Trey Edmonds in the second half forced us to play big. He has a grown man body. Hodge settled on a Lorient/Sissoko combination to match Garcia/Edmonds. - An extended run with a Floyd/Walker/Massie/Lorient/Sissoko lineup including to close the game aside from situational subs. Before the season I would've been shocked that this lineup would close a win on the road against a Big Ten school because of the offense. The spacing was predictably an adventure. Massie wasn't efficient but he kind of made the lineup 'work'. He shows handling, passing, and court awareness in the half court. Feels like he could turn into a secondary ball handler in lineups. - Atin Wright had a meh game by his standards, but still really excited about him this season. He's a bit of a showman and I love it. After getting fouled in transition, he slapped the ball away from the defender and stared at him. On Lorient's massive jam at the end of the game, you can see him standing over Edmonds (who was on the ground). GMG

      Still just a bit, but a sad one because it seems like a ceiling and not a floor.

      I will say that if we take care of business Utah State would like to have a say in that conversation. Lol
