A few years ago, we had an early season beat-down from an FBS foe and then went on the road a few weeks later and dropped one to a ranked conference opponent. We then lost a generational offensive talent to injury for the rest of the season. We would up tying with MSU for the conference 'ship and got a 5 seed in the playoffs. Made it all the way to a game in Texas and couldn't score a single point in the first half. The game was so bad, the announcers stopped calling the game and instead started interviewing the Vice President, who was in attendance and rooting for the other guys. Finally, we ended up scoring for the first time late in the third quarter. And then again. And again. And then EWU was the 2010 National Champions.
Football is weird. The season is long. There are certainly a lot of questions, but I like our chances of a deep run this season. I think this game was a bit of an aberration, but I suppose that remains to be seen. As Coach Baldwin used to say, stay off the emotional rollercoaster.
Go Eags!
