I cant see Del State giving us any more problems than Jacksonville did, of course after the Del State loss DSU Rocks will say they overlooked the Hens as the big trip out to Fargo next week ...... this will be ugly followed by uglier

[Fear the Bird]

Would like to see some progress in defending the pass this week, most notably in the 2nd third (tight ends, underneath routes etc.). I'm not sure what kind of offense DSU runs or if they have the all-world QB that Mr. C seems to think Jacksonville has...

We go to Towson first, then to NDSU.

With Elko gone we're very inexperienced at the QB position, we may start the kid from Coatesville, but as a freshman he'll definitely be getting thrown into the fire for sure.

Delaware 40
DelState 17

The average win is by 29 points, so believe it or not, I'm actually showing DSU some love with that prediction.

are you making the trip to Fargo?

[Ivytalk]

I'll say 41-19 UD. Hornets will score first but shank the XP, and it's all downhill from there.

Can't, was hoping to be able too, but work commitments. xbawlingx

EDIT: Plus, Bison fans aren't trying to dump their tickets like Michigan fans were, they're still going for premium pricing on CL and Stubhub. Was hoping to snag a couple cheap.

Well it's not all that bad, I mean after the game and you walk outside, at least you don't have to say "man wtf I'm I doing in North Dakota" :D
