not just SB- but look at the other games- we could very well see
more than one CAA-FBS upset this weekend:

Last year URI opened up like gangbusters, taking FCS Central
Michigan to the wire before losing in overtime. And Delaware is
no Central Michigan. And last year UNH was mysteriously
obliterated by a weak Holy Cross (Patriot League) team 51-26 so
losing badly to Maine is not entirely unprecedented.

The other thing with New Hampshire yesterday: they were without
Trevor Knight for a majority of that game. He was carted off
early in the first half, and that's when the wheels really fell
off. Doesn't fully explain their defense giving up 35 and 450
yards, but might account for how they were held to 116 yards of
offense, half of which came on one play.

Interesting that some potential key players are missing in
action . Maybe we will get some double speak eventually from
the coaching staff.

An Athletics official tells me the two-deep won't change but
both Kameron Pickett and Isaiah White could see playing time
this weekend.
I still find it odd why they're not listed on the depth chart at
all, but it sounds like they're with the team and will be suited
for tomorrow. We'll just have to see I guess.
Update: I'm reliably told Isaiah White is taking a redshirt this
season, which makes some sense since he had to break his
redshirt his freshman year. Ty Son Lawton is also redshirting,
but Kam Pickett is expected to be the third RB behind Donny and
Jordan.

Air Force reminds me of a lot of Army . They are not that big
compared to our guys -the downside is there are 85 of them with
schollies . Add the altitude at the academy and maybe mid day
heat it could be a long afternoon . Our guys need to stay
hydrated and be aware of their breathing . Should be an
interesting game. As for UNH and Delaware losing that's great.
We face both of them this season .

Now, it's all beginning to make some sense. Thanks, Seawolf97!

High temperature is only supposed to be 78 degrees.
The altitude is bs! Played 2 lax games at midfield in 3 days
versus Air Force and Denver and no problems whatsoever!

Yep. All of them are winnable for the CAA including our game.
The closer and closer we get to kickoff, the better I feel.

Absolutely. They run the triple option just like Army. Their
guys are no bigger than ours and could likely be smaller
actually. They'll definitely be smaller than the USF team we
played, and we hung with them the whole game!! The key to the
triple option is discipline and I think our defense will fare
fine against it. My only concern is the altitude. If we can run
the ball well though and control the clock, that will be
mitigated. I'm excited!

If you get there before the day of the game, the altitude is not
a factor.

Somebody recently asked about Isaiah White he is academically
ineligible this year will return next as a RB
