Score prediction vs Northwestern St.

[fanof71]

Some of you have an awfully low opinion of this team...

[RaginReview]

Until the defense proves itself, I'm not sold. 45-35. Cajuns pull away late.

Proves itself? Lol The defense will be the strength of this football team.

. . . proof is in the eye of the beholder . . . then they play the games . . . then it is in the video and results . . . I'm going with RR for now . . .

Look, anything can happen, and we are certainly not a program that is too good to get upset by an FCS opponent; however, we beat Southeastern 24-7 out of the gate, and they defeated NW St. 23-7 last season.

If we have to "pull away late" to win this game by only 10 or 11 points, fans may have to buckle in for a LONG season.

Our defense with the strength of our team last year, with an almost completely new defense on the field and what I saw from the open practice, I'm going to reserve my expectations until we see a few solid performances before I get excited about a successful season.

I like having Ben behind what should be an improved O-Line, but we also have a talent difference at Wide Receiver than what we will have to improve so the RB's will have to carry the load for a little while. I hope we come out and make a statement, but until we see them on the field Saturday, my expectations are limited. Our conference mates are making talent strides while I think we have some holes to fill.

Any word on Lance Legendre?

NWST is not Texas Southern from a few years ago, but they were not a good team last year. They got the doors blown off USM 64-10. This year they are picked 5th out of 8 Southland teams. Even if we were a bad FBS team, this game SHOULD not be close.

FIFY.

Defense is young. Cajuns by less than a TD. Hope I’m wrong.

Unless it’s a blowout or injury, absolutely want to see one QB the whole way. Start that 2 QB mess like last year, we’re in trouble.

It been awfully quiet. So it doesn’t sound that great.

[ULGrad@HOU]

52-14 Cajuns.

We better win big, NWst is not very good.

We lost 50% of the 2 deep from the team last year and 83% of them were starters. I'm not saying we will be bad. But for me to think we are as talented as last year seems a bit of stretch at this point, I hope I am wrong.

[billbeck451]

a lot to a little and most of the starters will be resting by the end of the 3rd quarter

[CajunEXPRESS]

38-3 Cajuns don’t open up either offensive or defensive playbook but win easily anyway

. . . it’s college, everybody loses a lot of players . . . and how much are we going to whine about losing players from a 6 and 7 team . . .
