My wife went to Marshall so I get to see them frequently - and while they have been a juggernaut on offense of late, this year isn't it.

Tailgated with quite a few Pitt fans last week before the game and they will readily admit their DBs aren't very good at all. Marshall ran the same few plays all the way down the field over and over. It was agonizing for the Pitt fans around us.

Pitt's D is down but Peterman is decent, their RBs might be best in the ACC overall, and they have some physical WRs. When we play them it won't be like last year.

while you're at it, why don't you fly an aluminum foil kite with copper wire instead of string?

I imagine it'll be tough to get inside a parking deck tomorrow, so if that's off the table, I'm going to try and find a large tree to get under...as soon as I typed that I realized how bad of idea it probably it is.

One of my biggest complaints is clickbait like and poor title choices.

So if we see a post titled "UNC's Defense was OK last year, but you won't believe what it looks like this year!" we shouldn't click on it, right?

Perhaps they do the LOLUVA thing, and buy several tickets so they can go out and come back. It's ok if you have a another ticket.

Look at that picture. That was taken during a miserable rainy game that should have never existed (at least I've decided this given that our images are small and sometimes difficult to make out). He chose a username that won't tip it off. And the birthdays - 5/29/1984 vs 5/17/1985. He kept the month the same, close to the same age and just changed the day of the month.
Matt Ryan confirmed.

I have no idea where we will end up tomorrow, Ill get on here and post it once we arrive. But anybody is welcome to join us. Not many going and we aren't doing anything fancy, especially with the forecast. But there will be some food and definitely some brews passed around.

LSU -2.5 at Florida
Virginia Tech at North Carolina -2.5
Tennessee at Texas A&M -7.5
Alabama -13.5 at Arkansas
Florida State at Miami -3.5
UCLA -9.5 at Arizona State

OK STATE has a very good offense and Marshal is also good offensively. Pitt Penn state rehashed a big rivalry so PS brang there best. I think Pitts numbers will level off.

According to Fedora, he used to practice with wet footballs to prepare for rain, but he said he stopped that because they already practiced enough in the rain. Hmmm.

But Fuente was the only coach who had taken the time to get to know Evans, his eight siblings ranging from ages 7 to 26, his mom and his dad, who is Evans's greatest confidant.

Two things:

  • Coach Fu, taking the time to connect with the family!! Recruiting 101
  • "eight siblings" - is this the chance to start the Evans family pipeline. They could be our Fullers for offense (with an occasional 'Corey' to play defense)

Well look at it this way:

Georgia gave up 24 to UNC, afterwards every other team has scored more than 24 and Nicholls State scored 24.

Pitt allowed 37 to UNC, but gave up 39 to PSU and 45 to OkSt. Marshall had their way with them in the second half last week, scoring 27 points to close a 27-0 gap to 30-27.

After coming off a shutout of BC, we knew that we just played an inferior offense. Our D looked elite - but we had yet to be tested (minus the UT game where our D was placed in some bad situations). But we weren't sure of how good we really were. UNC hasn't played a "good" defense yet, just as we haven't played a good offense yet (without our own help).

I'd argue that we won't really know how good UNCs O is until Saturday, and the same thing goes for our D. Until then, I don't think either can really be called elite.
