Not quite that simple. With an opener against Towson, they could have prepped

for the Navy option on defense, but that aside, all their athleticism advantage only yielded 21 points on offense and one of those was a 4th Q score and they had less than 100 yds rushing.

That Florida game was more about Florida playing terribly than about ECU

Anyone can say that. Perhaps E Carolina had something to do with it?

yup could easily say BYU beating Boise st was more about Boise not playing

The difference is in the coaching remarks and the stats

Cougarrrs

I don't agree with your analyses at all.

thebruce

Let's hear your analysis.

Cougarrrs

10/6/15 8:16pm

Faulty logic. Perhaps Florida is more full of themselves than BSU or UCLA?

CougarBacker

10/6/15 9:15pm

Sure, for the coaches remarks that could be said but what about the stats?

Cougarrrs

Question: did you watch that game?

thebruce

I don't understand your "stats" argument. BYU had 105 total yards against

They have had a decent program for years

If we hold them to 13 and we score 30, they will beat us??

basman

10/6/15 2:20pm

We're gonna hold them to 13? That would be quite a feat

Jericho

10/6/15 2:20pm

That's what we held UConn to and if we play against ECU like we did UConn, we'll

basman

10/6/15 2:24pm

No, because we aren't playing UCONN, we are playing ECU

Jericho

10/6/15 2:39pm

Well, if we play in a manner that holds our opponent to 13 points, like we did

basman

10/6/15 2:56pm

If we keep them from scoring more than 14, I think we win easily

Jericho

10/6/15 3:10pm

East Carolina's offense is head and shoulders better than UConn. I don't expect

CougarBacker

10/6/15 4:40pm

We won't, unfortunately. I expect them to score in the 20's at the least.

Jericho

10/7/15 9:40am

Or maybe not, if we can play a little better than that powerhouse

Their performance against Towson is irrelevant at this point

mjmill

10/6/15 2:21pm

How about their stellar performance against Navy? Or doesn't that count either?

basman

You either know how to deal with the triple option or you dont.

our effort against Michigan sure scares ECU i'm sure.

thebruce

Have ECU play our first 3 games at the same venues and see how they do in game

basman

10/6/15 3:00pm

I have no clue how they would do. I am just saying your logic

Best stance is playing the underdog role

Agreed, they are legitimate.

BYU hasn't buried anyone yet.
