Game Week Thread: Wagner @ FAU - 08/31/12 @ 8:00 PM

Carl must of got on the call late because the WKU Beat writer is tweeting some of his comments.

@MrChadBiship

Carl Pelini of FAU on the season opener: "It'll be an adventure for all of us."

Pelini "Our schedule is a roller coaster. The message is "Take care of us".

Pelini on playing Friday night in Florda. "Probably not the greatest situation in terms of attracting a crowd."

I ran into DeAndre a couple days ago in the Breezeway, he's still saying that there's a chance that he'll be out all season. I guess it's a good thing that for the first time in a long time we have some experienced depth at WR

Thats rough, maybe he gets granted a 6th year if thats the case.

If he never sees the field then he has a decent shot at a med rs, he's only a Jr, so at least one more year left in him.

“I’ve asked our coaches to be flexible,” Pelini said. “If we have to move our practice to the arena, we will. I have always said if you don’t make such a big deal of it, it won’t be.”

Good times.

Besides, beats PBCC; which is where Schnellenberger had to take the team a time or two…….

Here are the critical goods on Wagner, in particular SR QB Nick Doscher:

Doscher, a dual threat who can win games with his arm or his legs, enters the 2012 season having already secured the No. 1 spot in Wagner history in total offense (running and passing) with 6,037 yards. The 25-year old, who spent four years playing professionally as a catcher in the Kansas City Royals farm system, is also third all-time in the Seahawk record books in completions (324), and touchdown passes (31). In addition, his 16 TD passes in 2010 are tied for fifth on the Wagner single-season list.

So the QB is most likely their entire offense, shutting him down will be the main focus.

I hope the players are not taking this too lightly, after last year every game is a BIG game.

GO OWLS!

It'll be nice to have a DC that "might" know how to stop a dual threat qb and a scout team that can actually run their offense. We've got a fast defense with a lot of studs returning, I am pretty excited about that part of our team.

Cmon Carl, make this a statement game, 48-0!

After a 1-11 season, I would hope that NO ONE on this team takes anything lightly.

That includes practice, games, workouts.
