Boy this is early, you might say. The SIU game is hardly over, the teams not even undressed yet! NO! It is not too early! It's Marker Week. And. It. Starts. Now.
Interesting fact about this years edition compared to unfortunate recent memories. We finally match up strength against weakness with them. Our passing offense vs their pass defense. Their run defense is actually better than last year. Good thing we were clever enough to plan for that and become a passing team!
The only true passing threat they have faced that is on our level EWU. Iowa wasn't. Do you think Iowa puts up 41 against TCU? No, they don't. Two teams have matched or surpassed that. Arkansas and Oklahoma. That's pretty good company, and Arkansas needed two OTs to do it. Their own coaches have said on the radio they have to run zone because their secondary can't handle much man coverage yet. That tells me they are in for a world of hurt against our passing attack. "But then they can pin their ears back and rush Taryn" you might say. Our offensive line has allowed Taryn to be on the round a handful of times the last two games combined. I have faith in them and his escapeability. Plus they lost their best defensive weapon in DeLuca. That's huge for us, it will likely force them to bring in an extra defensive back instead of being able to keep the fleet footed linebacker in the game to cover our wide outs. If TC plays like he can we put up 30.
Secondly their offense isn't as good as SIU. I do think we've improved against the run, and our d Line showed some flashes of what they are supposed to be at the end of the SIU game. It's a rivalry game, and our defense has always played pretty well against the bison. Also, their fullback is out, which is huge for a power run scheme where the fb lead blocks a lot.
This might actually be our best chance to knock them out. Watching the MSU game if the bears had a good QB that game is extremely close. We happen to have a very good QB.
Last game is over. I'm over it. LETS GET IT ON BABAY!
