That is about what I would expect... Coastal is coming off getting absolutely embarrassed by ODU after racing to 6-0 by beating some awful teams. -- Ga. State, Ga. Southern, La. Monroe, Buffalo, Gardner Webb and Army.

Because MU and Coastal have opposite strengths and weaknesses... MU - Good defense, bad offense: Coastal - Bad defense, good offense: It "should" be a close game.

Early weather looks perfect -- 67 and sunny for a high, around 60 at game time.

We don’t seem to do well in games where we are favored.

2-4 against the spread this year. I hope they know something we don’t.

I actually think we can win this one. We just run the ball mix in a few passes our defense will win it for us

We have to keep McCall uncomfortable all night and give them a heavy dose of Laborn.

Laborn is on pace for history right now. We need to keep feeding the beast.

ODU did a good job getting pressure on him and not letting the routes develop.

I have a lot of faith in our DL to keep him moving. McCall has been sacked 13 times through 7 games so that's about 2 per game. I suspect we'll get to him 4-5 times and pressure him a lot more than that.

Still even if we hold them to FGs our offense has got to find a way to score other than depending 1-2 big plays a game. I know their defense isn't very good, but we couldn't move the ball against G-W, ULL was ugly, and JMU wasn't much better. Actually the drive chart was pretty horrible save for Laborn and Gammage's big plays.
