They look good in the second half. They will win 4+ SBC games this year.

I agree. They have got some horses and plenty of speed.

Not gonna lie, I'm starting to get a little worried about those guys.

They don't play ULL or Arkansas St. either, so they certainly have the schedule to have a nice record.

They had every opportunity to beat NCState.

They look like they are an FBS team. We have yet to do so.

I'm a little worried about playing them on national TV. My initial impression is that they are a good bit ahead of us.

Another gut punch for the Eagles. They've been arguably the most impressive Sun Belt team this season and just 1-2 to show for it.

We rolled Campbell last week.

They look like a real FBS team. The coach probably cost them a couple of huge wins with the decision to kick a FG in Raleigh and putting in the backup QB that turned it over late to GT.

They have lost late leads in their two games against legitimate opponents. That can affect the psychological side of a team.

not sure it was a fumble, looked really close to being a forward pass, wonder if the roles had been reversed that GT would have gotten the benefit and it would have been an incomplete pass. GS looks really good on offense, might be the best offense in the SBC, but the defense is still undersized and is probably a couple of years away from putting a solid FBS unit on the field, scary offense, but the defense is soft and will give up alot of points.

It seems early on that you can throw on GSU.

I still question that last turnover. That ball looked like it was going forward. FWIW, they look good, but I will never concede any defeat to the bunch from gnatsboro. So ready for us again next week. Hate open dates, especially ones this early. Go Apps!

one advantage the GS fans have over us this early in the season, is they have a good idea of what kind of team they have. At this point we really don't know how good or bad our team is, not sure we are really going to learn anything next week, SM is a really bad team, they got crushed by Mississippi State, and barely beat Alcorn State. I believe they are something like 2-28 their last 30 games. I expect us to win this game, and the GS game is going to be huge for both programs.

Once again GaSo is doomed by screwing up a pitch.

It also appears they can throw the ball. Our defense looks more undersized than theirs.

I'm not so sure about that, anyway, Im not yet willing to concede the SBC conference championship to GS just yet, or even that they will beat us this year.

The only place we're undersized at on Defense is our OLB, and that is just because we run a 3-4 and our OLB need to be able to handle OL on more frequent rushes
