FEARLESS PREDICTIONS FAU at NORTH TEXAS

Not to Jinx us, but I think we are going to have great game on Sat. My one concern has always been Rusty's confidence. With the win last week and Rusty's award, I think he will be flying high (in a good way). I expect for the entire team to come out firing on all cylinders…

I agree. I think the Minnesota game was a coming out party for Rusty. I think he also gained a lot of confidence in his offensive line and his receivers during the Minnesota game. That is just as important as the confidence that he has gained in himself. I expect FAU to put a hurting on UNT.

Keys To The Game:

1) You beat a BCS team - You're not an actual BCS team yet
Obviously, this means don't get full of yourselves.  Don't overlook a conference foe.  Losing to North Texas would largely negate the awesome game a week before.

2) Continue air execution
B.J. Manley looked good.  D-I Edgecomb looked UNBELIEVABLE.  But, our season is going to be won (and lost) on the arm of Mr. Conference Player of the Week, Rusty Smith.  He needs to continue his assault on defenses, via Harmon and Jean.

3) Continue to own what you own
We are 3-0 versus North Texas all-time, including years when we were D-IAA.  We own this team.  Go on the field with no mercy and take care of business… In other words, play like you ARE the better team.


Mr. Step Up
Who needs to be called out publically and step up?

Josh Pinnick
Yes, you have been double-teamed and creating openings for linebacker blitzes, but you need to find a way to get to the quarterback and sit his ass on the ground.  You are a perenial All-Conference pick and some projected you to go in the draft this season.  You need to STEP UP this week at North Texas and lead our defense to a conference win!


Prediction:

Rusty Smith hits Lestar Jean at least twice.  Defense swarms the Mean Green's new offense, led by new coaches and a new system.  2-0 in the Sun Belt.

FAU - 30, North Texas - 14

I fear for Troy and FAU this weekend. Both games could be traps…because Troy and FAU are having trouble with the run.

??

FAU is having trouble running the ball?  umm, why would you say that BMarkey?

Or did you mean stopping the run?

of which i would ask the same question…NT doesnt run the ball…

please clarify…….

I heard that FAU actually went over 200 yards on the ground against UM but due to the punt debogle it -35 yards from the total. It may have been 30 I can't remember.

FAU only had 117 yards rushing against Minnesota for an average of 2.9 yards per carry.
