Re: Ask the Coach questions...
1.) I thought the offense was very vanilla and not what I was expecting. Will we see the wide open play we were told about against MTSU?
2.) I thought the defense played great bending but not breaking. What improvements do you want to see from the Defense against MTSU?
3.) Bad Special teams has been a bane of FAU for a long time, and that trend seemed to continue during the Wagner game. When is FAU going to become competent in that regard?

Same for the slew of players that didn't dress.
Duron Carter? NCAA timeframe on him?

"Coach, when you read things that say sometimes a win is a loss, how does that make you feel?"
"I let it slide off my back. A win is a win… I would never fail to celebrate a win. They're too hard to come by in college football."
===
"After the two miffs on Friday, will we be seeing Travis Jones out there again or will we be moving to Keith Reaser perhaps?"
"Well, they've both been alternating snaps in practice. We went with Travis because he's an offensive guy. Yeah, I don't have any problem with Travis. If anything Travis just needs to slow it down and not try to make a big play on every play."
===
"Do you have to be a winner to bring in these names to play FAU?"
"No, not really. There are a lot of teams reaching out to us for home and home games. They want their brand seen locally."
"What about the UCFs and the USFs… is it important to bring in the Florida schools?"
"Well, there are local fans following that. But as far as I'm concerned, I think any name program coming into our stadium is going to demand good attendance. That's something we'll consider moving forward."
===
"Is it a good thing to have a conference game as the second game, this early?"
"Ask me on Sunday. But yeah, I think it's a good thing to see where we measure up before Alabama and Georgia. I'm very curious to see how it goes."

Wagner didn't demand the same lineup MTSU will see - no need.
We got it done, and that is all that matters.
Advantage:
Owls.

Coach Pelini strikes me as a guy who is good at keeping secrets. It will be interesting to see what happens Saturday.
