GameDay: ODU
Big story in the MAC so far has been the good showings by teams from the MAC West, e.g., WMU, CMU, etc. and Mother Nature.
Hopefully today, Mother Nature and EMU will play nice.
(UT had their game delayed and then cancelled. Kent State had their game postponed until today.)
Some like to see us play MSU, OSU, etc. but I doubt Bell does. Yes, MSU has very, very tough lines. Very physical.
Bring on ODU. MSU can wait. Long wait, is okay by me.
ODU nine and half hours and counting down...

With the rain, we will probably skip traditional tailgating and just hang around the alumni tent and bounce houses.

RE: GameDay: ODU
Is all of that rain in S.W. MI/Indiana coming to Ypsilanti and to Detroit?

RE: GameDay: ODU
I'm looking at the weather (radar) as I'm not there.
Is the rain going to give us a 'glancing blow'???

Matt and Rob excited about Bell's improving mechanics.
POC underwent shoulder surgery yesterday. Arm in a sling. Will get a medical redshirt.
MacLean will play today.

Can't remember the last time I saw EMU run through a team like that in one possession. WOW

RE: GameDay: ODU
ODU looks like they are playing in slow-motion right now. Keep playing like this, and you could be up two or three scores before they realize they're in a game.

RE: GameDay: ODU
Hope the game officials aren't from the MAC. A couple tough calls against the home team on the INT and pass interference.

RE: GameDay: ODU
The int call overturned was legit, the end of the ball hit the turf before possession. But the PI call seemed fishy. Uncatchable, I thought.

I watched a game this weekend and they said that if a ball hits the turf it isn't automatically incomplete. Depends if the possession was taking place w/out the assistance of the turf.
Figerosa having a really good game.

Well played first quarter. I feel like ODU finally starting to get warmed up.

I sure hope so, considering we already have more points than you projected us to have.
