ODU gave up over 500 yards to a 1-4 UNC team and almost 600 yards to Va Tech, IMO that is not a "good defense"
Throw that stupid sack total out the window because practically all those were against a FCS and basically another FCS UMass
ODU has never lost to La Tech. Just remember that
You're still thinking like an FCS fan. You're not in the FCS anymore. You can't live off one lucky win from years ago. That's what Tulane fans do.

Exactly, Reading posts like that make me cringe.
"1-0 vs. La Tech"...Where outside this messageboard, and even here it's iffy, does that statement mean anything at all

It apparently means enough to some La. Tech fans that they feel compelled to post in a thread about a game that doesn't involve them. (It also causes some serious butthurt for Dawgxas, but he's always hanging around ODU threads somewhere.)

It is absolutely intended as a thread that is available for all CUSA posters to use.
In fact, I'd feel like we were doing something wrong if we didn't manage to provoke some anguished comment from Dawgxas every few days.
In that spirit: 1-0.
(Live with it, Dawgxas. Feel it burn. Let it eat away at your sense of self-worth. We here in the east sleep well, knowing that we remain undefeated against La. Tech. -- at least in football. Last year's men's basketball outcome was admittedly a bit unpleasant.)

Hey, ODU is not the only team in this match-up who are undefeated against LaTech! The difference is, of course, LaTech will have a chance to do something about that later this season...

I didn't realize until your last post above that there are no previous football games between FAU and LA Tech. Tech is 3-0 vs FIU, but we've never even played FAU in football. Interesting.
LA Tech is however, 2-2 vs Florida State.

You mean like BEATING the same Navy team last December in a bowl game that FAU just lost to 42-19 on Sept 1st?

Well, let's see. Since they joined CUSA in 2013, LaTech has two west Division Champoinships and three straight bowls wins (which include wins over P5 Illinois, AAC Navy, and the sunbelt champ).
And your resume since then is?
I'm not trying to dis FAU, but cutting on LaTech's football resume.... c'mon, man.

Hell man, my grandma could have won the West division in those years.
Course she's 6'3", 250 and runs a 4.5 40.

ODU has never played UAB or North Texas in our own conference, yet we've played Eastern Michigan 3 times.

No because FAU sucks too. I think that's an important fact that's being overlooked here.
