Thought I'd start a thread to discuss what's been going well, and what might be our weaknesses after two games.
Additionally, I'll list some FCS games happening during the bye week that we should all be tuning into.
I'm concerned that we still haven't played against a starting QB yet. That, coupled with our fairly pedestrian (so far) pass rush is still major cause for concern. Two games isn't much to go off of, but while I think our d line looks more athletic and better overall than years past, I'm not sure if that looks like it's translating to QB hurries (yet).
There's not and lot else I've seen that has me concerned, but feel free to chip in. So far, everything had looked great on the whole, but we still haven't faced a QB that will challenge our D. I think our run D is great and will set us up to do very well in the MVFC. I'm just still not convinced that we've gotten better at getting off the field on 3rd and long, until we've seen the D do it against an O that's capable of converting those kinds of plays.
Some games of interest:
Maine @ CMU: Black Bears have been a pleasant surprise out of the CAA and would place themselves firmly in the top 5 if they can get their second FBS scalp of the year in Mount Pleasant Michigan.
Delaware @ NDSU: Still not sure the bison have been tested yet, and I'm really not sure UD is the team to do it. But it's the old guard vs the new regime, and it should be a fun game.
Idaho @ Cal-Davis: Vandals need a victory bad, but Davis has looked like a top tier Big Sky team thus far. Of Idaho loses, they would basically need to win out to male the field.
Sacramento state @ Montana: Big time playoff implication game for both teams. Sac state has looked decent, and Montana has looked inconsistent.
