Well you guys seam to bitch about it a lot for being a myth haha. Do you not worry that Kirk probably made last years group look much better than they were even? Kirk was a tackle breaking machine.

That is a good point, I guess we are hoping Anthony Knight can provide something like that. At 6-1 240 he is a truck of a runningback. Also, Shawn John is an underrated running back between the tackles. He is pretty good at that. Watch the NAU game and you'll see just that. Its tough to replace a guy like Kirk, but hopefully with an improved oline and a little more speed at running back we will be ok

Just wait and see on the RB's. I think you will be pleasantly surprised on how deep the Cats will be this year. They have a very good combination of Speed/Power. If you throw WaWa Leota in there and they let him play FB some around the GOAL line we will have a RED ZONE blocking MASHER!
Yes, the WR position is what I am most worried about.

Ahhhh the Fullback, a dying bread. We're lucky to be able to snag ours from Boise State, kids a beast!

He got an Ass Infection?
I know what you meant.

I guess Auburn wanted WaWa Leota as a FB. Watch his film the kid can just destroy people as a FB.

You're angry, but I get it. I would be to if I were a cat fan. Thankfully I'm not. I'm a Griz fan and that makes me better than you. You see, Grizzlies are at the very top of the predator food chain while bobcats are small, furtive little creatures that avoid contact and drink milk out of saucers.

Good thing animals play football.
Don't let this distract you from the fact that the griz blew a 22-0 lead.

I'm pretty sure losing in the NC five times is the epitome of being the "Charlie Brown of the FCS."
I think you don't get it. Sleeping in until 6 won't get many people very far in life, especially if they want to play on Sunday.

Really??? Top 2 team 7 times in the last 18 years. This is what the bobcats consider being the "epitome of being the Charlie Brown of the FCS". What does this make the kittens?? I'm trying to remember how many times the kittens made it to the championship game over the same period of time?

Linebacking corp - they should be tops in the Big Sky or near the top
Offensive line - have a chance of developing into a solid unit. Loss of Devereaux after one year of starting hurts. We are getting better recruits each year in that area so I don't think that unit will ever be a weakness, but to become a dominant unit in the Big Sky...that the players will have to establish themselves.
Secondary - I would imagine that SUU and EWU and even UM may have stronger secondaries, but we should be solid.

The fact you have to come on here and defend your "all mighty program" against our "lowly program" says it all.

You should try to understand the drivel from your "brothers" like Plainiac first... If you want to talk football with us be our guests. If you want to perpetuate mindless ramblings of how much better this years team is going to be than ours based on how your team played a decade ago... well then GTFO and go back to ejizz where that crap is welcome.

This isn't a smack board son...so unless you are really interested in discussing the Cats, then maybe go to the Smack board and jack your jaws! COBN!
