well- WE ARE DOWN 28-21 at the half.
I know box scores do not win football games but at the half its:
First downs MU 14- FIU -9
Total yards- MU -335- FIU-208
TOP- MU-21- FIU-9
But we had one turnover which flipped this game--
our first drive we went for it on 4th and 4 from the FIU 18 and Robertson (who has been very good) threw a really bad pick 6. Then our D held FIU on3rd and goal from the 2, but they went for it-- We pressured them with a good pass rush and our DB made a great play and broke up the pass and the ball batted up into the air right into an FIU WR for a TD to make it 14-0 FIU.
This is a VERY even game but somehow we need to get that possession back with a turnover or own own "cheap" play.. To be fair, Our defense clearly not doing great which is sort of expected against an athletic FBS team and MU D just not being good (yet).. If we can either make a stop or two and continue to play this Offense OR get that possession back this could come down to the very end or OT.
