    The last game I truly felt we should not have won, but did, was 2003 at Michigan State.

    Yep, it was the HOD year. The Tabasco Leopards were supposed to skull drag us, and were so confident they had a group of our recruit prospects on the sidelines to witness it.

    I think WKU would have been favored even had we beaten USM.

    First, it's not really practical to travel that far for a game. Heck! I was gonna be in trouble going to Shreveport Saturday, had that actually happened. But, travel issues aside...it's hard to get excited about a team that doesn't seem to care themselves.
    Our group had purchased 22 tickets for the Championship game in Shreveport. None of us will be going to Kentucky!

    I live in Nashville and going to the game because Bowling Green is only an hour north. I hope I don't see a blowout. The past 2 games that have been played up here have both been losses. Hopefully I can see a Tech win!

    Special teams will be the biggest key to the game. If they consistently start out on the 50 yard line or better like earlier this year, we're toast. Kick coverage better be getting their act together for this one.

    Offensive line would be a close second. If we are one dimensional on offense we lose. They know they can score on us, so if we can't run or abandon it they will be aggressive on defense and come after Higgins all night. We need the Oline to be able to open some holes for Craft and Scott to help keep the offense balanced which will help tremendously with the air attack.

    Best of luck to the team and who are going to watch the game tomorrow.
    Hope our players and coaches will show up to play tomorrow. For the the people who travel to Bowling Green, drive safe.

    I doubt this game is ever close.
    Wasn't this the narrative going into the Southern Miss game? We'd won 7 in a row. Southern Miss was headed in the opposite direction. Isabella did a story on just that. That's why they play the games, fellas.
