This is a big game. NAU hasn’t lost at home and are a very good team. Wildcats had a bye week to rest, get healthy, and plan. NAU had a comfortable win at a banged up Cal Poly that I hope inflates there confidence.

Going with the Wildcats 38-31.

A top 5 road win would really put a nice stamp on Kjar's rebuild and make a statement heading into playoffs. I haven't watched any of NAU this year. Anyone know their strengths and weaknesses?

On paper and film nothing stands out but NAU is just solid across the board. No major weaknesses. At home they have an obvious added advantage. It’ll be a tall task for a young Weber State team. I hope we don’t have the dreaded bye week rust because we had a lot of momentum. My heart wants a win but I’d put us as a touchdown underdog Saturday.

Also, don't forget that the Cats curb stomped the Jacks last Fall in Ogden. Ending their hopes at a playoff bid. That might be some added motivation for them in this one. We usually struggle in the Dome. I do remember watching a lovely game in 2008 in Flag that I would love to see repeated on Saturday with a Wildcat statement win.

NAU has only lost on the road at Arizona and Montana State. Most of their wins have been close games, but this week they blew out Cal Poly in CA. They really look solid and have some good wins over currently ranked teams including Montana, Idaho State and Incarnate Word. Weber is going to have to play their best game of the year to come away with a win, including winning the turnover battle which they have only done once (Cal Poly) so far this year. NAU is +12 in turnover margin this year, having forced 21 turnovers. That will win you a lot of games.

Boy Montana State was lucky this year with their schedule.
