ZippyDoo Posted August 29 Report Posted August 29 After just one possession... Sac State defense dominated Eastern Michigan. Emu picked up on first down then had to punt... Quote

ZippyDoo Posted August 29 Report Posted August 29 3:30 left in the first quarter and the first down that eastern got on their first drive IS THE ONLY first down the whole quarter. neither offense looks any good at all Quote
catdaddyp Posted August 30 Author Report Posted August 30 (edited) EMU should’ve already put this game away. Sac State is not a good team. Total yards at the half: EMU = 260, SS = 34. Edit: I will say SS has a freshman RB I’d take in a heartbeat. If they utilize him more often, they may have a chance to be competitive in a few games this year. Edited August 30 by catdaddyp Quote

ZippyDoo Posted August 30 Report Posted August 30 UNLVs defense those first two drives was crazy they only had three down lineman and no one else on the line... Quote

I thought I read Orji was going to be the starter. Arnold has been at both Oklahoma and Auburn though..definitely talented. A luxury to have two guys of that caliber on the team.

catdaddyp Posted August 30 Author Report Posted August 30 (edited) I watched most of the Robert Morris game. They aren’t good, but Wagner is worse. Both teams struggled to get any push in the run game and neither team’s defensive front looked that impressive. RM scored on a blocked punt and then on short field position in the first half. They scored on a post-corner route in the 3rd where the WR reversed field and outran the defense - two of Wagner’s DBs took bad angles. I didn’t watch all of the fourth quarter, but I know the same receiver scored another touchdown. Regardless of the Zips QB situation, this should be an easy win in a few weeks as I don’t think RM will be able to move the ball much on our defense and I seriously doubt they’ll be able to stop our run game.

catdaddyp Posted August 30 Author Report Posted August 30 (edited) I caught parts of the Memphis/UNLV game. Both teams looked really good to me. Memphis is running the Heupel/Tennessee offense and has the players to do it. I can’t believe I’m saying this, but I think they are candidates for the G5 playoff spot this year. Their QB, Stokes, is a stud. Edited August 30 by catdaddyp Quote

It's easily the best G6 league, IMO I think it depends on how badly they beat up on one another. Like a 1 loss champion from MWC, PAC-12, or SunBelt will likely always beat out a 3 loss champion from the AAC. Quote

They can call it what they want, but if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck... I figure most years going forward, the playoff spot (and they won't do two G6 ones again) will be either the PAC-12 or the AAC. The other leagues absent a 13-0 team won't get the bid. Obviously if people ever get some sort of governance together for the sport, things may go a little back to a more sustainable model and then who knows. Quote

MDZip Posted September 4 Report Posted September 4 UMass did upset Rutgers 37-21. First FBS win since 2024. Good for them. Fly the Flag! They might not be such a pushover this year. 1 Quote
