Three For Thursday [Zips @ Owls - BOWL edition]

[Dr Z]

Sorry, a day late. Discuss your selections. 

 

If Question 4 is a tie, all answers will be considered correct.

I went totally and unashamedly homer. These FAU fans have turned out to be the most annoying we have had visit us in quite some time and I am really hoping we pull off the W. Kiffin is an idiot flash in the pan who inherited decent players. Amato and Bowden will totally out fox him. Kato lights it up at home a d it won't be that hard because the Owls have a vulnerable defense. Zips D shows up like they did against WMU, frustrates their QB like they did against Ohio and turnovers make the difference.

You could do all that but you won't be able to stop the run.

The Zips didn't stop the run in many of their victories this year. Good luck. 

 

Pretty even voting across the board.

FAU’s vulnerable defense? Akron averages more yards and points given up on the year than FAU. While Akron does have a very good turnover margin, FAU still ranks better in that.

Went complete homer, mostly because of FAU fans on here, the CUSA seems to be the worst G5 league & they act like they ran the SEC, in reality, we do have a tough task trying to limit their offense enough that we can score enough points to win.  That really sounds so simplistic but I’m thinking like the Ohio game.  Just enough defense on a good offensive day for us. Zips win 38-34

Stop the run?  Probably not.  Stop the run enough to prevent points?  Count on it.

Let's just remember, the odds have been heavily stacked against us, all season long.

Sorry guys, I'm just not feeling good about this one. I hope I'm wrong.

Congratulations to @FAU Connoisseur @kreed5120 and @WD UA 2015 who answered the first three questions correct. The bonus question was a push, since there was not a turnover in the game.
