Eagles open as 16.5 point favorites at Charlotte

We should win this game by four touchdowns. Charlotte is by most statistical ratings a worse team than UTSA or North Texas. They're 188 in the Sagarin ratings which places them dead last among FBS schools.

Should be a win I agree. Just hope the team doesn't take them lightly because I don't want USM to be their "breakout" game. I think USM only has to win two more games to become bowl eligible...not that I ONLY want two more wins but I do want to go bowling this holiday season!

We got this one.

Every game scares me, still. I don't care the record. Until we prove that we can win consistently (which will take more than a season) I will still be worried until the final buzzer sounds.

That being said, we should kill them.

This is Charlotte's Homecoming game. I am assuming they made that decision based on last year. If our DLine plays like they did last week, it should get ugly fast. We should have beaten UTSA by 40 last week. We have got to get better inside the 10 yard line. Don't know why we don't keep it spread out and run some misdirection that close to the goal.

The players have been taught not to take any play, much less any game for granted. After where we've been the last 3 years I agree. Here is a quote we should be concerned about from the Charlotte paper,:
"Charlotte shut down Old Dominion running back Ray Lawry, who had been No. 1 in the league in rushing, limiting him to 34 yards. But the 49ers allowed 365 yards passing and four touchdowns to Monarchs quarterback David Washington."

We need to be balanced and rush the ball. Yes we should win, but we have to focus, play well, cut down on the turnovers and stupid penalties, and take it to them. We do that and we will be in very good shape. We walk in thinking we just have to show up and they may have a good homecoming. I think we will take care of business and play well. SMTTT

But ODU still ran for 115 yards.
