How do you guys compare to Eastern and some of the other FCS schools that pulled off upsets recently? Any chance you take down Udub?

Any Chance ISU Upsets The Washington Huskies?

We're huge underdogs here, absolutely no chance. I just hope that we give Washington a better game than we did against Nebraska last year. That one was really a rout.
Maybe a snowballs chance in hell. Did you see the Huskies last week? The best thing you can hope for is no injuries to key players. Sorry, I'm writing this under the effects of a very strong pain pill this morning at 2:12 AM. How much money will ISU make on this game, anyone know?

Maybe when Ty Willingham (sigh) was coaching the Dawgs...even then it would've been a route over ISU. VERY disappointed UW scheduled this game.
Play the game by lake, grab the $$$, and hope ISU gets out of Seattle with no or minimal injuries.
ISU faithful won't get a good feel of the 2013 team until game 4 v. UC-Davis.

I certainly hope you're right on that one. We definitely don't want to get a "good feel" of the team in the first two games - if you catch my drift. :shock:

Who do you think will win the FCS this year? North Dakota?

I could get behind the Eagles, from my state and they did punk the Beavs.

I seriously doubt North Dakota will win the FCS this year. Last year North Dakota finished 8th in the Big Sky with a 3-5 league mark. On the other hand, North Dakota State has now won the FCS Championship for the last two years in a row. I suspect that's who you were referring to.
As for beating the Huskies...let's beat the Mountaineers first...then, on to Seattle...

Washington is a tall order, but at some point the program will have to get the big win that turns the corner.

The Huskies feature a ton of speed and their OL is ready to rumble. I hope we can keep the game close.

I wouldn't give up hope so fast. Washington struggled to beat Eastern last year.
Besides, you know they are looking ahead to conference play..sounds like the recipe for an upset.

They killed Portland State last year and struggled to beat Eastern two years ago. We are no Eastern though.

Sorry, I'm not a big Pac-12 expert.
My point was, Eastern was coming off their championship - they weren't the same team the year they almost beat Washington. And my UW friend just texted me, he said UW struggled to run the ball against Portland St last year, even with the same RB who beat Illinois! It's not impossible.

The solution is simple get push up the middle and heat from the edge. If we can do that we'll be right in this!
