What's the smoke looking like in town?

Still pretty thick. Better than it's been the last 3 days. Last check, the AQI was at 214 at 9:15 am, which is about 50 points lower than late last night. Supposed to really start improving after noon today.

Downtown Spokane is still horrible, currently at 217 air quality, but we had a light rain this morning that has helped.

Man, a lot of negativity on this thread so I'm changing my pick.

EWU 41
NDSU 21

We dominate from start to finish

 

[EWU98]

At what point do you call it or postpone it?
They have got be on their way soon.

 

[EWURanger]

I'm hearing some rumors of cancellation. Can anyone confirm/deny?

 

[EWURanger]

Spokane is at 175 AQI currently, which is not great. Presumably Cheney is a little better off. What are NCAA guidelines?

 

[ewueagle2010]

I heard NCAA guild lines were below 200. Might be just as reliable as the rumors Ranger is hearing about cancellation.

I don't know if this might be gamesmanship or true but could big impact on the game.

After last week I can't say that I'm feeling super confident about this game. 45-22 NDSU

 

[kalm]

I'm sure the game is a go.

Bison 51 - EWU 28

 

[EagInTexas]

Lots of negativity in this thread. I expect that we're going to see massive improvement on both sides of the ball in week 2. And we're playing at home.

Eagles 31 Bison 28

 

[Seattle Eagle]

35-34 Eagles

Yes I agree, lots of half empty glasses here. My biggest concern is the wind that is forecast, nothing can be done but play in it. I'm still liking our O-line and defense as a whole. Gabe has nothing to prove, and I expect to see a much more balanced pass/run game.
35-34 Eagles

 

[tomq04]

Since the smoke cleared I'll do a proper prediction.

I really do think this team is special despite last week's performance. They are opening in the red in warm weather but with additional wind. They aren't as pass happy, and the defense seems to have the potential be pretty stiff, particularly if Ketner is back in the middle.

Scoring expectations have come down, but I wouldn't be shocked by a similar score to last year, 35-32 with NDSU missing a field goal to send it into overtime.

 

[01eag]

NDSU 42 EWU 28. I think all the lost outside practice time hurts. One day in Moses Lake is not enough.

 

[BorisGudunov]

45-31 EWU Mark it down. I feel remarkably confident about this one.
