We’ve opened as 9.5pt home dogs.
Not surprised. But we can win this one.
Certainly a winnable game but we’ve seen this story before.
It’s 49er Oktoberfest, that always helps me enjoy the game more
We will get no pressure on the QB. He will rush for 2 TDS and throw 4 more against us. People will leave in droves in the 4th qtr after the HC king&queen are announced.
Things get tougher after this game, if we want to get another W this may be our best shot left on the schedule even though they appear to be improving.

make no mistake about it watching this game, WKU is NOT good. We aren’t either, but when evaluating our performance and what not, do not forget that they are terrible.
WKU has been far more competitive in their games than us. Only dud was their loss to Maine.

Look at those beautiful efficiency rankings. Bottom of the barrel in every phase of the game.
Our ST is #119 with a bullet though. You know what’s crazy is that’s #119 with Cruz, tells you how bad the rest of it has been.
Those special teams rankings are much more about field position transitions/touchbacks/punts inside 20 than field goals. Last year were were ranked 21 overall for reference, and respectfully to the kickers on that team, we could barely make an extra point.
Hah that’s a flawed measure of Special Teams rankings if so.
- It’s our Homecoming game. The weather will finally feel/look like fall. Should be a good crowd. The opponent is bad and beatable. Our boys want to win so much. I’m calling a win by 1-3 points.
Curious about how we perform after bye weeks?
weeks.
