Idaho…

[TomCat88]

They’re absolutely rolling #15 Albany btw in case anybody hasn’t seen. Currently 41-3 in the 3rd

Not taking away from Idaho. Albany may have been ranked a little high. None the less it’s a ranked win. However, Albany barely got past a team last week that had like 2 or 4 wins last year.

Right, Albany might not be close to the same team as last year, but the fact that Idaho competed with Oregon and beat Wyoming last week, and is now doing this to a respected FCS team… I think they’re legit

Wyoming sucks, btw. Bad team.

Wyoming lost 34-14 to BYU at home last night. Cowboys scored a late TD. BYU isn't looking particularly good this year.

Watching part of the Idaho game yesterday I thought about how the Cats match up with them. Their D is solid. If the Cats mix up passing and rushing, scoring may not come in waves but it will come. The Cat D-Line is better than the Idaho O-Line and will keep the pressure on. But, the Idaho QB get the ball out pretty fast and when he sends it, he really sends it. I think the final score will be determined by the Cat secondary on that day, and that truly worries me…. They won’t run on us, but they could definitely carve up the Cats secondary on the long ball.

If we can go into this game with a mostly recovered O-line, with our ones, and Julius back in the running back rotation, I think our run game will be extremely hard to defend. I do agree though, we need to get some of your dudes back on D, but all things considered, our secondary as always been shaky, yet this year our starting D has not let a team hang more than 20 pts on them.

I love your opitimism for the potential of the Cat defense to help control the game SparkCat, and our Cat D has played well so far. But there is no way our secondary keeps them below 21, more realistically I can see 28 or 35 getting hung on us with the way they sling it. Our corners haven’t been stellar. I’m genuinely not picking on them to be negative but go back and watch 1-on-1 coverage of our corners in games so far this year. Shutdown isn’t a word I would use and ball awareness against receivers has left a lot to be desired. I have a feeling that a soft passing middle and stretching boundary coverage could work against us that day (it seems to be Idahos bread and butter). I think it will be a boat race where we run hard and throw some too while they throw a lot and run a little. Could be one heck of a shootout.

Our secondary is literally the same as last year when Idaho scored 24 at home. Against us they will try to do the same thing they did last year, get the ball out quick, run, go for it on 4th and control the clock.

Maybe we will just bring some pressure this year. I remember their first offensive series we really brought it agains them. I believe a few tackles for loss. Then it seemed we were not in the backfield at all. Our secondary is the same, I’m just hoping that maybe just maybe we will have a different game plan with the new coaching.

Yeah Idaho is the opposite of a chuck it around air raid football team. They want to control the clock with grind it out drives and play good defense. Need to score in the first half unlike last year and the Cats win.

If we hold Idaho to 24 and run past them, I’m good with that. Believe me, I’ll eat crow by the spoonful with happiness. This years Idaho team has relied on some big plays to press them forward. Watching them yesterday I was never under the impression that they’re a better team, I don’t believe they are. But, I do believe they’re the home run threat type of team that can spoil your day and I believe the perimeter is where they can do it. Just my opinion, and I’ll be happy if I’m wrong about my impressions on that day….

I'm not saying you're wrong, but they had big play threats in the passing game last year and dinked and dunked us all game to keep our offense off the field.

This game is going to be epic. Outside of the rivalry and DSU’s in our house, this is the best home game we’ve had in a very very long time. I think the fact that we are already talking about it with three other opponents to come is telling. The winner of this game has the fast track to a top seed and the conference championship.

I was one who didn’t think Idaho would be a contender for the Big Sky. But, I watched the whole Wyoming and most of the Albany games. I’m really impressed.

This is a must win for the Cats.

I’m also really hoping Leon and the Big Sky keep pumping GameDay for this weekend.

I am no football expert, but with the outgoing of talent last year I also thought Idaho would not be very formidable this year. Then this year comes and wow. I did have a smart#$& remark regarding coach quality but figured I would not
