       Nothing wrong with that CD, are you going to be able to make it
       to Montana.  If you do I would love to give you some beers and

       Chrissy; I dont think I was sleeping on your RB's, in fact I
       thought I gave them a lot of respect, I just happen to like your
       OL a little more.
       ry1nik, Hunter is right, not much desire to play in the big
       money leagues from MSU fans now. I think we fit really well in
       this level.

       Won't be making the trip Griz but thanks for the offer, will be
       watching on TV. Cats don't take me that serious, these guys on
       our site know that sometimes I come off a little salty. Don't
       want to offend, it's all in good fun.

       Here's the bit on Maysonet and Coker
       "We featured Maysonet in this space earlier this season, but he
       continues to deliver. His teammate Coker, on the other hand, is
       new to this spot, but is very familiar with the national
       spotlight from his days with the Iowa Hawkeyes. (He left the
       program this past January, shortly after he was investigated for
       sexual assault in a case that was eventually dropped).
       Both backs played well in Stony Brook's 20-10 win over Villanova
       on Saturday, combining for 267 yards and two touchdowns on 54
       carries in a game in which Stony Brook was without its starting
       QB.
       Maysonet, who currently ranks second in the FCS in rushing, has
       emerged as one of the top small-school prospects in the 2013
       class, and should hear his name called on Day 3 of next April's
       draft. Coker is an underclassman and is likely to return as
       Stony Brook's bell-cow back next season (as a sophomore for Iowa
       last season, he rushed for 1,384 yards and 15 TDs). He has the
       size, vision, burst and power to contribute in the NFL. Whether
       he can stay out of trouble and dominate the small-school level
       of competition will be very important to his 2014 draft stock."

       This link is for the reading pleasure of our friends from the
       West. It gives due consideration to the Bobcat defense as well.

       Hey there Seawolves!  Another MSU fan here.  :)  Finally got
       approval...  ;D Just giving you a hard time.
       Looking forward to the matchup!  It's always fun playing teams
       you've never faced before, and don't know much about.  I follow
       AGS and FCS fairly well, so I know of your team.  I watched the
       SHSU/SB game last year, and watched about half of the Nova game
       last week.  No offense, but that is one boring style of football
       you guys play.  It's damn effective and hard to stop, but as a
       casual fan, and I already knew the outcome, I could only use
       part of my Saturday watching that.
       Synopsis of MSU offense (I'll do defense later)-
       Top 5 QB in the nation at this level in DeNarius McGhee.  He can
       beat you with his legs but make no mistake, he is a passer first
       and he only runs when he has to.  He had issues earlier in the
       year trying to force plays (guy draped on him, he throws it
       "away" right into a defenders hands), but has only thrown one
       INT in his last 4 games, and that was a lame duck long ball that
       lost about 10 yards on it.  If we are struggling offensively,
       McGhee puts the team on his back and he will move the chains by
       any means necessary.  He doesn't have the most accurate long
       ball, but is very accurate up to about 30 yards have a ton of
       zip and usually the only guy who can make a play is the WR.  He
       is one of those guys that just has "it" and is a winner.  He has
       only lost something like 8 games as a starter dating back to his
       junior year in high school (a junior now) when he played for a
       top 5 national team at Trinity in Texas.
       RB - Started as a three headed monster, has really turned into a
       1 man show with a lot of rotation with one backup, Orenzo Davis.
       Cody Kirk is the main man here, and when you watch him run you
       likely won't be impressed.  He, like Coker, gets a lot of his
       yards later in the game after he wears teams down.  He isn't as
       big as Coker, but he is a solid 215 and is one of those guys who
       always gets tackled on his belly, meaning he always falls
       forward dragging guys.  Davis is the speedster who spells him,
       but has struggled at times this year with decisiveness.  Was a
       1,000 yard rusher two years ago as the main back, sat out last
       year with grade issues, returned as a senior this year to a
       diminished role and hasn't quite returned to his all-conference
       form.  He is the big play threat if he gets it going.  Tray
       Robinson is the big 6'1 225 transfer from Nebraska, but he is
       used mostly in the passing game (3rd on team in receptions) and
       pass protection.  He is invaluable in this role and is a big
       part of the offensive machine.
       WR - No gamebreakers here.  But McGhee does such a great job
       spreading the ball around (5 players with at least 20
       receptions, 9 with at least 10, and 9 with TDs).  They have a
       bit of trouble with press man to man coverage in breaking free
       and getting open.  Tanner Bleskin is the main target between the
       20s, but only has 3 TDs, and has missed or been limited by
       injury the last couple games.  I think he should be back to
       full-strength for this game.  He is a big target at 6'3 212, has
       the best hands on the team, but lacks speed.  John Ellis is the
       speedster, but has a propensity to get a case of the drops, and
       always always seems to get himself crushed by a defender at
       least once a game.  Everett Gilbert is the slot guy, and the
       shiftiest of the three, but ever since his on and off hamstring
       injury a few years ago has never returned to his freshman phenom
       form.  But he is the best of the three at YAC.  Briant
       Floetketter got the start when Bleskin was hurt, and he is a
       rising star.  At 6'2 198, he is a big tartet but he has
       deceptive speed, and he has really come on in the 2nd half of
       the season.  You'll likely see Kruz Siewing as well, who is has
       decent size, speed, and great hands.  Overall, a good unit but
       nobody is going to scare you.
       OL - Young and undersized, we even have a converted TE playing
       at right tackle (who happened to make all-conference in his
       first and only year at T).  They are pretty good in pass
       protection, but have struggled to generate much of a push when
       it comes to the run game.  We have a tough time running against
       big run-eating DLs.  The lone incumbent from last year is
       upperclassmen is C Shaun Sampson, an undersized guy at 6 foot
       nothing 268.  The rest are freshman or converts.
       TE - Foster was all-conference last year, but converted to
       tackle when we our typical off-season OL issues hit.  Tiai
       Salanoa was off to a promising start as a sophomore, but was
       knocked out for the season in the Southern Utah game.  So the
       preseason 3rd string TE Lee Perkins stepped up, and has played
       surprisingly well.  But he was injured, and we had a sophomore
       who hadn't seen any time play, and he struggled with the speed
       of the game.  Perkins is back, and there is a 50/50 chance that
       Salonoa might return as well.  Salonoa is the most athletic -
       think of a poor man's Antonio Gates.  Perkins has good hands but
       is a bit undersized at 6'2 235.  Salonoa is 6'3 255 and the
       fastest of the group with the softest hands.
       X-factor - Shawn Johnson.  Speed, quickness, shifty, elusive.
       The fastest running back on the team, and quite possibly the
       fastest player on the team period.  He is just a true sophomore,
       and he gets up to 5 touches a game, but is a home run threat
       every time he touches it.  He is also our punt returner and took
       one to the house this year, and is a threat every time he
       catches it.  Is also a threat to muff or fumble every time he
       fields a punt as well, but has gotten much better at that as the
       season has gone on.  He will be a huge part of the offense next
       year with Davis and Robinson both gone, but for now he is 4th in
       line, and inexperienced enough to stay on the sidelines for most
       of the game, but he will be a special player, and we shall see
       how much he is utilized if at all come Saturday.
       I'll get a defense write up here this afternoon, unless no one
       cares then I won't bother.
