vs. Cal Poly Game Day Thread

[EagInTexas]

When's the last time we hung 70 points on someone?

Dominant win by the eagles. Cal Poly is bad.... very bad this year. Can't wait for next week.

Thank you Pluto Sports for glimpses of this game. Eags: You left no doubt!

Whoever had a problem with WSU's backup QB getting some throws in (especially when your offense is predicated upon it) have a problem with Barriere throwing that TD?

I take slight issue with it. It's a little different to me though since it's an in conference game (and vs an opponent at the same level).

Feels so good... Work to be done tomorrow, but celebrate the win today!!

According to the post game show, the late 60s or something. This was our first time as an NCCA DI team and the fourth time in history. The other two times were before 1920.

Don't you feel like that's a double standard? Premier FCS 1's should be able to line up with mediocre to poor FBS 1's, and regardless of the quality of the opponent, if the game's in hand, don't you want your 2nd and 3rd string to get quality reps?

Honestly, I feel like any team that is pulling a dominant win has the right to give their second string QB in game experience. That experience is invaluable if your starting qb were to go down or, like us, the qb is the heir apparent. Don't care what WSU's backup QB did to us. If you don't like it, stop it. End of story.

It's not an issue. Alabama does it to FCS and FBS alike weekly. Glad to see Eric motivated and making an effort, not just handing it off without any investment in his performance. We are on a run, you continue to operate at a high level no matter who's in or what the scoreboard says. No one was playing dirty, it's fair game.

whats weird EOS is that Cal Poly only lost to Weber by 7 two weeks ago.

Earlier this week there was speculation that this may be a trap game after the big loss last week...NOT

That first drive by CP was pretty hairy... Would like to say the D scores twice every game though, let's make that a thing. :nod:

Meh, I mean I'm not going to lose sleep over either instance.

I will say the EB3-Edwards connection was a nice preview of things to come in '19 and '20. Also, anyone remember the last time we had a potent run threat to match our high powered pass offense? Seems like we had a good season that year...

 

[EWURanger]

The 441 yards rushing today was a Big Sky Conference record. Not bad for a pass-first offense.

 

[ewueagfan]

CP is a really bad team this year but we did what we’re supposed to do against a bad team. On to the next one.

I thought the record was for the 14.7 yards per attempt. Not sure though, as the link to the Big Sky conference records seems to be broken.

ALSO, Congrats to the Eagle defensive and offensive lines and to special teams. You guys are awesome. Welcome back Mr. Custer; we've missed you.
