Really need to win these games for the program to continue making steps forward, and of course to be bowl eligible. I still think of what could have been if we had held on against Louisville and didn’t lay an egg against BG, but of course we stole one in Miami so I can’t complain too much. Sure would be nice to steal one more from the three games we’ll be significant underdogs. But let’s take care of BC first. If I’m BC I run the ball at Tech, especially with the mobile QB from Ware County. I think the game is going to be a tough one but our D gets some big takeaways and we win 28-24.

I like the crust of you’re lisp.
 
BC presents some unique problems that I hope we have an answer for. I'll know by the end of the first quarter whether we do or not. F$U was up on BC 31-10 with 4 min left in Q3. BC came storming back and scored 3 unanswered TDs in the final 16 minutes to pull within a FG. And I mentioned elsewhere that BC is an astounding 70% on 4th down conversions. And its not like they have 3 attempts - they have 20 4th down conversion attempts and 14 first downs to show for it. Defending short-yardage rushing attempts isn't exactly our strong suite.

This is not going to be a walk in the park.

Thank you for the analysis Mr John Madden.
 
Gotta contain the edges on D and our LBs have to be disciplined not to over play and stay 'at home' in their lanes.
 
Sounds like they are going to try to run the ball and we are going to try to stop them. We need a big game from our front 7 (or 6 or whatever).

Yes it is.
 
If Faulkner will open up the offense and keep it open for the entire game (something he incredibly has not yet done this season), we win easily
