PLAYOFFS!!!!
HORNET REALITY (with sad Hornet-isms)
8/30 @ Incarnate Word: W 38-35 (1-0, 0-0 BSC) ***The Hornets come our guns a blazing, but nearly cough up a lead late to a very, very bad FCS team.***
9/6 @ Cal: L 47-7 (1-1, 0-0 BSC) ***Cal comes out real pissed off after getting throttled by Northwestern, DeAndre Carter injures his leg (out 4-6 weeks).***
9/13 WEBER STATE (Non-Conf): W 31-27 (2-1, 0-0 BSC) ***A bright spot for the Hornets as Jody Sears gets sweet revenge in front of a small Hornet crowd for the home opener.***
9/20 MENLO COLLEGE (NAIA): W 28-13 (3-1, 0-0 BSC) ***A truly lackluster performance against an inferior opponent, SDHornet scaled the library wall, but ultimately decides not to jump when offered a beer by Herky.***
9/27 @ Idaho State*: W 30-28 (4-1, 1-0 BSC) ***The Big Human is still the Big Suck in Pocatello, Hornets pound a win out on the ground***
10/4 MONTANA STATE*: L 24-21 (4-2, 1-1 BSC) ***MSU isn't the same squad they've been in recent years, but the problem is the Hornets are. A 21-10 4th quarter lead is blown after a pick 6 and a late TD by the MSU Offense***
10/11 @ Northern Colorado*: W 34-31 (5-2, 2-1 BSC) ***Duh Bears.... SUCK. DeAndre Carter returns with 2 TD Catches***
10/18 CAL POLY*#: L 27-13 (5-3, 2-2 BSC) *** A short-handed Mustang squad still manages to have their way with us on both sides of the ball. This was a game where 6-2 would've looked a lot better than 5-3...***
10/25 BYE
11/1 @ Montana*: L 52-7 (5-4, 2-3 BSC) ***Jordy Johnson and company absolutely rip the Hornets in front of a packed house in Missoula. We pretty much all expect this outcome.***
11/8 SOUTHERN UTAH*: L 34-23 (5-5, 2-4 BSC) ***This is the third loss in a row to a 2013 playoff team. Our early soft schedule catches up to the Hornets and they drop to .500. This is the game that murders and possibility of good attendance for the rest of the year as we are embarassed by a directional Utah school at home.***
11/15 PORTLAND STATE*: W 28-27 (6-5, 3-4 BSC) ***This one could go either way, but the Hornets pull out a W.***
11/22 @ UC Davis*: L 34-13 (6-6, 3-5 BSC) *** While a playoff berth is off the table at this point, the Hornets completely sh1t the bed in Davis with the opportunity for a winning season on the line.***

Given that we ARE the Pac-12 Killaz...AND that Cal is currently (for good or bad) in the bottom tier of the Pac-12...
Incarnate Word W (Blowout) 1-0
Cal W (Late FG) 2-0
Weber State W (Close only because Weber ALWAYS plays us close) 3-0
Menlo W (Blowout) 4-0
Idaho State W (Convincing, but not a blowout) 5-0
Montana State Push, leaning toward L (We're going to make noise this year, but it's too soon to be in the top tier of the conference.) 5-1
UNC W (Blowout; pi$$ed off after losing to MSU) 6-1
Cal Poly W (Late FG) 7-1
Montana L (We'll lose by a couple of possessions.) 7-2
SUU W (Another post-State of Montana rebound.) 8-2
PSU W (By a TD or less) 9-2
Manure Pile W (Pushing for the playoffs) 10-2
Impressive record...BUT...snubbed anyway due to the idiotic scheduling of a D-II callup AND a NAIA closer to D-III than the usual NAIA rough equivalence of D-III wiping out the B(C)$ "upset"....

My prediction is 9-3 or 10-2. This team has the upperclassmen leadership to have a special season. If it wasnt for Sperbecks coaching blunders last year, the hornets would have been 8-4 last season. With the change in culture and the positive vibes the team has, I only see the Hornets losing to Cal and Montana.

Can someone PLEASE explain how a team that struggled to win ONE freaking game last season is an auto-loss for us when we've beaten two other bottom-feeders from that league in recent years?
Figured I should get this in before kickoff, had no time to give a more in depth look at each team so these are basically darts thrown against the wall:
Sat Aug. 30 at Incarnate Word - Win. No reason we should lose to a team in transition. (1-0, 0-0 BSC)
Sat Sep. 6 at California - Loss. Cal is currently cruising at Northwestern, they will have an easier cruise against the Hornets in this game. (1-1, 0-0 BSC)
Sat Sep. 13 Weber State - Win. Sears' has this game circled on his calendar whether he admits it or not. Weber wasn't a total embarrassment at Arizona State so I think we win a close one at home. (2-1, 0-0 BSC)
Sat Sep. 20 Menlo - Win. Playdown game and it's not a directional Oregon. (3-1, 0-0 BSC)
Sat Sep. 27 at Idaho State * - Win. I expect a typical ISU team, meaning they put up tons of yards but can't stop anyone. Hornets win in a shootout similarly to the last trip to Poky. (4-1, 1-0 BSC)
Sat Oct. 4 Montana State * - Win. MSU has some good RBs returning but will be breaking in a new QB. This was the team Sperbeck never could beat...and he is gone. Hornet steal this one at home. (5-1, 2-0 BSC)
Sat Oct. 11 at Northern Colorado * - Win. UNC should be better, but they always find a way to lose...even more so than the Hornets. Hornet have never lost to UNC, it better not happen here. (6-1, 3-0 BSC)
Sat Oct. 18 Cal Poly * - Loss. Total toss up as CP lost their top RB to off the field issues, but by this point in the season I think they will figure things out. CP had no passing game whatsoever at their opener against NMSU, Hornets could win this if CP can't find a way to keep defenses honest. (6-2, 3-1 BSC)
Sat Nov. 1 at Montana * - Loss. Montana will be atop the BSC this season, no way will they overlook the Hornets. (6-3, 3-2 BSC)
Sat Nov. 8 Southern Utah * - Loss. SUU returns a lot of their offensive weapons. They won't need a freak pass play to beat the Hornets this year. Hornets are eliminated from playoff contention with the loss. (6-4, 3-3 BSC)
Sat Nov. 15 Portland State * - Win. Hornets edge out the Vikings in another crazy shootout. (7-4, 4-3 BSC)
Sat Nov. 22 at UC Davis - Win. Sear's is rewarded with a 4 year contract following a Causeway win that caps off a "successful" season against the weakest schedule in Hornet D-1 history. (8-4, 5-3 BSC)
Sat Aug. 30 at Incarnate Word - Win. No reason we should lose to a team in transition. (1-0, 0-0 BSC)
Sat Sep. 6 at California - Loss. Cal is currently cruising at Northwestern, they will have an easier cruise against the Hornets in this game. (1-1, 0-0 BSC)
Sat Sep. 13 Weber State - Win. Sears' has this game circled on his calendar whether he admits it or not. Weber wasn't a total embarrassment at Arizona State so I think we win a close one at home. (2-1, 0-0 BSC)

Sat Nov. 8 Southern Utah * - Loss. SUU returns a lot of their offensive weapons. They won't need a freak pass play to beat the Hornets this year. Hornets are eliminated from playoff contention with the loss. (6-4, 3-3 BSC)
Sat Nov. 15 Portland State * - Win. Hornets edge out the Vikings in another crazy shootout. (7-4, 4-3 BSC)
Sat Nov. 22 at UC Davis - Win. Sear's is rewarded with a 4 year contract following a Causeway win that caps off a "successful" season against the weakest schedule in Hornet D-1 history. (8-4, 5-3 BSC)

If Safron starts every game we will make the payoffs.
