Just got back from watching Air Force stage a remarkable Q4 comeback en route to beating a very solid TCU team 20-17. It's an omen. Air Force was an 8-point underdog, as are the Owls. I'll take the same score with underdogs on top: FAU 20, Minnesota 17. Fingers crossed. I leave for South Florida Friday at 730a Mountain Time. I'll try to bring some luck.

I'll beg to differ a bit on the outcome – on my way to the airport now.

Ski-U-Mah!

28-16 Min over FAU

Wish it wasnt so but I just dont have a good vibe with all this attention to passing game. Go back to what won us MTSU. Run the ball well which will open the pass. Hope it aint so!

FAUOwl09's Fearless Prediction:

Keys to the game:
- Put last week behind us - what's done is done, move on to the opponent on the field
- Rusty has to get in rhythm - he has been mediocre at best in the 2 games this season
- Lestar Jean has to become a legitimate threat at wide receiver

notice, my keys to the game are centered around offense… our defense is sound in my mind… nothing to complain about from them… our offense needs to get in sync

FAU - 31
Minnesota - 21

the only way we win this game is if our offense looks unbelievable and puts up 30+… we will not win a close game against a BCS school… it will need to be an offensive display… our offense is CAPABLE of it, but WILL they?

What's the latest on on our injured players?

As much I think we CAN win this game, I just don't think we have enough on offense to worry the Gophers, especially through the air.

Minn 28, FAU 17
