FAU @ ECU 6:30 PM Fox Sports 1

[ColoradoEagle]

It's opening night for the NFL, but that doesn't stop this pillow fight from happening in a few minutes.

Pillow fight? I don't think we should be calling games from teams in our conference "pillow fights."

ECU barely beat an FCS team and is on its way out. FAU spiked the ball on 4th down. It's a pillow fight until proven otherwise.

I'm amazed at how crystal clear this reception is on Fox!

[THOR]

Looks good....but the color guys voice is annoying to me...

[Harry]

Wow ECU looks really strong 7-0

[Rudy]

Probably have to root agains ECU since they're on the way out. Make the AAC look as weak as possible.

FAU looks terrible

ODU is technically FBS this season. Anyway, doesn't matter but I just never liked that term.

[UNT90]

FAU looking lot like Idaho.

[Harry]

Pellini is pissed...claiming the refs moved the ball back on third down...you wouldn't think he would make something like that up.

Presentation-wise, it's a pretty good competitor to ESPN. Also helps that they cannibalized a channel that most cable providers already have in HD and on a basic tier, unlike the additional $10 I have to pay a month for CBS Sports in standard definition.

They're independent FCS this season. ECU is looking dominant, if that helps.

[UNT90]

Both look challenged. You would think the 2nd teams were in.

[Rudy]

So, East Carolina and FAU both have logos on their helmets. How will anyone know who they are? You have to spell your school's name out for anyone to know who you are.

[UNT90]

How nice is it to watch a league game on national television on a Thursday night. This damn sure ain't Karl Benson's Belt!!

Can't wait for our first televised away game.

[Harry]

It's actually a very entertaining game. I sure hope we get a game on like this. Very professional. And to THOR yes the guys voice is different but I like his comments.

[UNT90]

Wish we had FAU's field goal unit.

You can tell that FS1 definitely puts more effort into the production than ESPN2 and ESPNU put forth for Sun Belt games.

Thursday nights on FS1 are all about CUSA except for the first half of October where there's a few PAC-12 games.

Thu., Sep. 5 Florida Atlantic @ East Carolina

Thu., Sep. 12 Tulane @ Louisiana Tech

Thu., Sep. 26 Iowa State @ Tulsa

Thu., Oct. 24 Marshall @ Middle Tennessee

Thu., Oct. 31 Rice @ North Texas

Thu., Nov. 14 Marshall @ Tulsa

Thu., Nov. 21 Rice @ UAB

Fri., Nov. 29 FIU @ Florida Atlantic

FAU looks bad

[LongJim]

Good presentation. ECU is physically beating FAU up. Typical ECU team. Very physical. They will be a challenge when the MG play them

[cdizzle86]

Side note: I like the FAU uni's.

Meh. Helmet logo is terrible. Can't tell what it is.

[NT91]

Looks like ass.

I wish we had more Thursday night games

When will we play them? Only possible way is if we win the West and they win the East. Not so sure we'll win our division. Sure hope so.
