Yeah last time he relied one multiple freshmen to be major major contributors was his worst year. That being said, BUs shown that he can build a highly competitive team in multiple ways. I’d imagine if he thinks signing 4 5*s was a good use of NIL, we’d be putting together a pretty awesome and...

We know what’s wrong with Matelau? Timeline and/or injury?

I’d be shocked if Nate Sheppard didn’t have the most forced missed tackles on the ncaa if he stays healthy. I thought they game planned excellently and adjusted their defense absolutely beautifully in the second half. I hate Diaz, but that staff deserves every flower for that game. We’re so used...

They’re ranked 28th in the FCS AP poll after dropping from 25th last week. Not saying they are gonna even come within 20 in the point spread but to say they’re a bad FCS team is objectively wrong

Show me that media lol. He went something like 13/26 for 125. Against Tulane. Objectively a bad stats game, even worse eye test.

Yeah… we had a big name lined up that fell through and the staff acted like hauck was the man all the way. Which makes no sense considering his retirement timeline. Anyways too late to dwell on that. More importantly you can’t settle for FGs. Dukes QB has made every through. Couple of misses...

Truly believe this is going to come down to turnover margin. I’ve seen nothing to think this defense can get more than MAYBE one stop. On a semi side note Nate Sheppard is the best ACC running back. Might be best in the country.

Did that kick get tipped or was it a total shank

Probably the worst defensive unit since Beckman left. And a real shame too with how sharp this offense looks (down two linemen too).

We might need to put up 30+ in every game if we want to win. That being said, 31-28 Illini.

If their QB looks anything close to what he did against Tulane….. we win. Frankly might just need to get to double digits. One of the most uninspiring QB performances I’ve seen in a while from a P4 team.

And remind me how good 25 WIU and 24 EIU were? EIU finished 3-9. WIU finished 4-8. They were bottom feeder FCS programs. If you really want to start whining about first game results check out years like 2013 and 2014. We beat SIU 42-34 and Youngstown St 28-17. THOSE are telling results...

a large grain of salt with this for various reasons but it sure feels like Hauser is going to make the loss of Luke feel minimal. The talk of the board is the defense (rightfully so) but the unit flips out previous defense philosophies on its head. We’re going to give up yardage and gash plays...

I’m not worried about Duke. Im excited to see us throw some big gun plays on defense out there.

I’ve long thought (though NIL has changed this significantly) that the true sign of a healthy program in terms of recruiting is getting multiple high level targets to visit. Of course, you gotta close on some. But the fact that we’ve got significant interest from quite a few 5 star prospects is...
