Die hard Dawg fan here but until the Offense starts to click the stands won't be as full as they should be. Put something on the field that is exciting and fun to watch and the casual fan will come. 48-16 doesn't inspire the masses.

Just be there!!

MTSU's loss to Minn. didn't look to good after they lost to South Dakota at home Saturday - I didn't even know South Dakota had a team.

Yes, but who will come to see ours?

Just kidding!!!!!!

[techman05]

knowing that Navy didn't play all that well against Maryland, a powerhouse for sure , I think we will still have some optimistic fans for our first home game. Now, we have to play well this Saturday or we will take a huge hit.

It's put up or shut up time for Dykes and Franklin.

Talk to us about the growth of the TFS last year. Sure you guys had Dasher, but did it start out slow like this or was it more of an instant Game 1 thing? When did it 'click'?

Well we opened with a loss to Clemson in which we looked pretty lost. Followed it up with three wins against Memphis, Maryland and UNT who combined for a 6-30 record(two of those wins were against FCS teams) then lost back to back games to Troy and Mississippi State and then won our last seven. I'd say that our 7th game when we were really clicking, but I think we had most of the kinks ironed out by the fourth game, we just happened to catch the two best teams we played all season in weeks five and six. If Navy is as bad as they've looked so far, you guys should see some real strides in the right direction this week and win fairly comfortably, but regardless of who's on the schedule, it should probably only take another game or two for things to really start coming together on offense.

I hope your right. We got a tough schedule ahead with Navy/Southern Miss/Hawaii on the island/much improved Utah State. We could very easily lose all 4 of these games if our offense doesn't start clicking soon.

20,000 - Navy game

25,000 - Southern Miss game

After that, if we have a losing record the rest of the year, average 15,000 tops.

Utah state is apparently getting better, thankfully at least its at home, as far as the Hawaii game at least their defense is still weak. I think we can take them if we stop the turnovers. I think we can win all of them too... but yes we need to get it straightened out no doubt.
