FAU @ Charlotte, Saturday, November 25th, 2:00 P.M.
The teams that trended in different directions this season get to meet to conclude the regular season schedules.
While FAU is having a season of historic proportions, Charlotte might be wishing to forget this season as soon as possible and build for the future.

Take nothing for granted. Charlotte surprised UAB, they can do the same to us.

I'm thinking 70-something to 28 FAU. Wondering how I can make this fun to watch for me - need ideas for a Charlotte fan viewing party.

Probably not unless its late 3rd early 4th and well in hand. FAU has seen to many "In the bag" games slip away in the past to take our foot of the gas. We did have our 3rd stringers in for the UNT game by the 4th quarter as I recall.

Charlotte is freaking awful. FAU will be naming their score in the 2nd quarter. Not being a dick, just being real.
We aren't really an offensive juggernaut and put up 66 on them. Our backup's backups ran all over them.

I think our guys have given up on Lambert along with our fans. Honestly, I'm expecting a 50 point margin here and if it gets him and Judy Rose fired...I'll fly to Boca to deliver Lane my gift basket in person.

In fairness, our guys quit a couple weeks ago AND we were missing our top 3-4 defensive players last week and will be again this week.

They must think lane plans to give the starters a rest for the championship game.
Our players and coaches have quit. Your backups could beat us.

If any FAU fans are visiting, they are in for a treat. That stadium is small, but very roomy. Good room between rows and easy access to restrooms. Charlotte is a firing away from being relevant, but I loved the stadium when we went there last year. Hopefully, they will be passing out subs as you leave the stadium, that was a nice touch.

RE: FAU @ Charlotte, Saturday, November 25th, 2:00 P.M.
Wow this game means nothing for either team which is unusual for CUSA last week of regular season.....FAU fans, will you guys be playing your starters in this one very long? If so how long do you foresee Lane going with starters? I have Singletary in my fantasy championship this week and not sure if I need to play him or not?, if he sits this one out or plays limited snaps? Just trying to get a feel how Lane is going to treat this meaningless game, thanks for your help...

Singletary will play three quarters, in my estimation. Although, Whyte and Howell may get higher proportion of snaps at RB than usual. I think Kiffin will see this game as a large part of training and learning process. Additionally, whatever decision he will make on how long to keep his starters in will be dictated by the situation in the game. if it is relatively close going into the 4th quarter, he will leave starters in until almost the end, like against FIU

We have craft beer in the stadium too.

I honestly don’t think it matters. We’re missing our three best defensive players and depth is an issue. There’s a decent chance I get called out of the stands to play some LB in the 2nd half.
If I were Lane, I’d run rb’s out there until they get 100 yards rushing and then send the next one out.
