FAU is lmpressive, but if WKU is able to slow them down it could frustrate them somewhat and it may be a different game. The first spot out in Vegas today actually had WKU favored by 1.5, a minute later it jumped to FAU -7, so initially in Vegas WKU was favored, however, a MAJOR better decided otherwise.

I think the real problem we are witnessing here, is that no one pays us any attention and, thus, whenever we beat someone, it is this unexpected surprise, "WOW! Did you see FAU just did THAT?" FAU averaged 49 points in our last 5 contests. FAU did not just score 69 against UNT. FAU scored 58 against "the best C-USA defensive line" (sarcasm), and before that, broke a 9-year losing streak against MTSU in style. And one of the first posts here after we beat Bethune-Cookman of FCS 45:0 was "Did FAU just did that?"

I think everyone would have done better against us if they paid attention.

Hell, I'm not surprised at all. You have always played us tough...especially in Boca. We won't be overlooking you and all.
