Davis beat SD by 33, Nichols only by 19...so Davis is 14 points better than Nichols and we are 39 points better than Davis which makes us 53 points better than Nichols...

So simple math says 60-7

:lol:
 
D holds the line, close at the half pulling away in the 3rd.
20-17 at half, either team with the lead.
48-20.

Where exactly are you getting your information... I pass this sign periodically, who's your supernatural guidance counselor? :lol:

Dropping 42 on this defense would be really impressive. I think the only way that happens is if we turn the ball over a few times giving them short field position like we did in the WSU game.

EWU 41 Nicholls 32
 
I'd like to see the Eagles run, run, run, and pass after run is well established.
I would bet they will spy EBIII and blitz a lot like Weber did. If we run the game plan we used in Portland our running backs will cover some serious turf when they hit the second level and before they are caught, if at all.

Would love to cram it down Nicholls throats the entire game. We know the RB's would be on board with it. Know the OL can wear them down as the game progresses.

I don't think Nicholls has the athlete's to effectively or continuously blitz EB3 and succeed. Lots of options like you mentioned running the ball. If I was Nicholls I would drop 7, let my DL work upfield, and create confusion for EB3 by alternately lb's and safeties around into different zone looks depending on down and distance and make Eastern have to commit to lots of 3-5 yard runs. Not sure the Eags have been patient running the ball early in games. Given the week off Eastern should be the more physical team throughout the contest.

Likely, Nicholls will try a little bit of everything. If they can blitz and be somewhat effective early it will be interesting to see how Reeder, EB3 and the OL respond.

Damn... was working a crossword this morning and one of the answers was "colonels" and another was "owls" Might as well stay home today the universe has spoken.. :roll:

OK, I'm not superstitious at all. No rituals, unwashed underwear, special hats... just routine that prepares mind and body for the contest ahead.

Agree with fanatical, hanging over 40 on this Eagle D would be miraculous

Hahaha yeah I was definitely wrong on this one. I thought both EWU and Nicholls would find success in the passing game. The opposite was true.
