Next up UNI

[marceagfan5]

It is early in the season to be wondering this but I have to wonder if this is a must win game already. IMO the goal is to be a top 4 seed and hopefully top two. In order for that to happen is this a MUST WIN game?

If we want to be a top 4 seed, then yes, Saturday is a must win.

We can probably finish 9-2 and still get a top 4 seed, but I don't think our loss can be this saturday. We can probably drop one in conference and still get a top 4 seed, but our loss has to be on the road and we still have to win the conference.

Beating UNI, will give us a quality win in the FCS over a non conf opponent.

If I did not know the score it would appear the Panthers should have won. But...
2 turnovers and 1 runback for TD made the difference.

Wow, you're right. UNI destroyed UM in the statbook.

And from what I've read, they should have won by at least 2 scores against the Cyclones but were sloppy in that one too at times.

Was Bill Brasky in at Quarterback?

UNI is a SON OF A BITCH!

Aren't we all??

Little known fact, but Clawman waited on Bill Brasky's buddies one night long ago. After catching his best bartender and the front desk gal in the laundry room, Clawman pulled double duty slinging drinks in the Mangy Marmot Saloon. http://www.nbc.com/saturday-night-live/video/bill-brasky-holiday-inn/n10832

It's a must win if we think we can go anywhere in the playoffs, should we make it. First and foremost, we need to prove that we can beat these kind of teams. Secondarily, we need these kind of wins to get us seeded.
