The 8 game BSC schedule for the Cats begins today against Weber and is the first of 4 away games that will be played against ranked teams this year! We’ve already played #1 at SDSU and most agree should have beaten them. Today the Wildcats though not ranked #1, are in fact #10 nationally, and have always been a team that MSU has had its fair share of struggle and challenge with. It’s NEVER easy at Weber and today I don’t expect anything on any level to be “easy”!
We’ve gotten the best of Weber the last 3 times we’ve played them, but it’s always been tough, bizarre, and contested! I expect more of the same.
No Tommy today, no Lonyatta this year, no Dowlers today etc. might bode well for a Weber win…but I’m not buying it.
We’ve known since the schedule came out what this year was bringing and I’ve not seen any sign of intimidation or a shrinking back from the challenge. IN fact, I’ve been pleased to see that regardless of who we’re playing we’re bringing it. Though we’re not a finished product on the field…neither is Weber!
I like Sean at QB because not only do we know he’s a threat in the run game when he needs to tuck it, I think he’s a more comfortable passer than Tommy (I get that this is subjective), and throws a more “catchable” ball….IMO. I believe we’ll see that demonstrated today. AND, we know Sean knows where the EZ is!!!


I like our RB’s and our TE’s! We have an embarrassing amount of wealth at those positions. Today we’re going to see more diversity out of both groups because we’re going to need it!
I like our Defense. Though still susceptible to edge exploitation at times, on the whole this years D is showing up and showing aggressiveness and the ability to limit teams better than last year. SDSU is the example of D we want to see…minus the 3rd quarter.

I’m not sure what wrinkles we’re going to see from Weber today, but I’m certain something’s going to happen to test the Bobcats resilience and tenacity. It always does at Weber. But this years Cats is ready to run the gauntlet of the BSC schedule…starting today with the first of 4 road W’s!!!
Now is the time…go get it Bobcats!!!
