FIU Nations Best Freshman Watch Ty Hilton

Post

This will be Polo's chance to step up:

Look at #5 on the list, those are some big numbers for a freshman.

Re: FIU Nations Best Freshman Watch Ty Hilton

Polo isn't a freshman anymore….are u just saying he should step it up and cover him or step it up and return more yards than him?  I think Hilton is best known for his kickoff returns so maybe time for Leroy or our new Auburn boy to step it up and kick it out of the endzone or to a slow tight end at the 25

Re: FIU Nations Best Freshman Watch Ty Hilton

I agree…who did the "numbers" come from competition wise?

FAU will do everything possible to take the kid out of the game…no worries there…

On a side note:

They have THREE guys to try and prepare for when defending our passing attack:

Gent
Housler
Grant

IMO, the offensive, and defensive advantage lies with the Owls…

We shall see…….

Good strategy seminOWL2006!!!!! Do you think our coaching staff would realize that they need to start kicking the ball out of the end zone to slow this guy down?
This TY is dangerous and he can spoil FAU's intentions for a bowl bid.
I hope FAU can push FIU around like past games.
Are you going?

GO OWLS!!!!

Nope, not going, studying abroad in Amsterdam so I am a bit out of the way.  A bunch of friends as well as my parents are going though.

The kid is averaging 28 yards per catch, I think we need to worry about his receiving ability.  I know Polo is obviously not a freshman, my point was that its an opportunity to step up and shut down an electric receiver in a game we will need to win.

FIU Nations Best Freshman Watch Ty Hilton

Why not line Small up against him? Offenses hate to throw to Smalls side, ULL did it last week and look where it got them

My two favorite teams are FAU, and who ever is beating FIU!

Agreed. Small should cover Hilton. He's been more consistent than Polo.

Small usually covers their #1 receiver, the bigger posession type guy.  He usually doesn't defend the slot receiver.  If Polo can shut him down it will give him the confidence he needs to be a leader going into next season.
