Is Shalom Ogbonda on the scout team again or is he hurt? It sounded like he progressed nicely in the spring but haven't seen his name this fallPosted On: Sep 17th 2013, 2:46 PM #317574
He played quite a bit in the miami game, less in the past two as the suspended guys are back.
I'm looking forward to this week's game. Everybody knows it's the first conference game, so that raises the ante a bit. We've got to have a great week of practice, make sure we get some things corrected from last week against Memphis and get ready to play a good Florida Atlantic team.
Last year, it was a 7-0 game with 10 minutes to go in the third quarter before we kind of ran away with it. They're (FAU) a good team coming off a good win over South Florida. Their last five or six games going back to last year, especially on defense, they've been a good team. Their defense reminds me a lot of North Carolina from a speed and athletic standpoint. They'll pressure and come at you with a lot of man coverage, so we'll have to be able to handle that. They're not as big up front as Memphis, but they're fast and athletic.
The humidity is definitely different. I don't think that we really recognize it. I have heard it more from fans. I remember at Purdue it was a record heat and had no idea. We become so focused on the game that you don't take time to realize how hot it is. We hope to avoid any cramping. I don't see the heat being a factor.
