MACtion Week 3 Discussion w Marsski

Need EM to score this drive

 

[inZane]

The Broncos fg kicker's longest of the year is 30 yards?

 

[s--k]

I have EM 1st H so need to hang on here.

Fake punt by Ohio!

 

[s--k]

Got to make that fake punt pay off with points for Ohio to keep morale up

 

[s--k]

EM calls timeout to try and get ball back, then they leave the draw wide open for WM to get a huge chunk. WM driving for points now

 

[s--k]

EM can't stop a draw play

 

[s--k]

Wow. WM had no idea what they were doing there

 

[s--k]

Toledo - Ohio is at a tipping point in terms of Ohio's chances of a cover

 

[s--k]

and it just tipped

 

[s--k]

Wish I had some Under!

Glad I didn't have Under! 57.5, they scored 58

 

[s--k]

4th and 9 conversion!

 

[s--k]

EM has settled for too many FGs....but they winning!

 

[wiseplayer]

As bad as EMU & WMU defenses are and were tonight, amazing how this total ended up low 40's.

 

[s--k]

These games tonight like good entertainment. Short lines for a reason, think they can go either way.

CMich flipped from dog to favorite. Think they are generally better, but don't believe they are that much better to be road favorites. Were as high as +2.5, then as low as -2.5. Ball State continues to be mysterious in bad ways. Central Michigan kind of has an "it" factor.

NIU is another team with an "it" this year and Buffalo ultimately has turned out to be what a lot of people expected preseason. NIU D is pretty bad though, not that UB's is good, UB does some things better with their pressure and playing behind the LOS (3.3 sacks per game/7.1 TFLs per game, NIU D just 1.1 sacks per game/3.9 TFLs per game), otherwise the Ds look almost equally bad. NIU run D is allowing a MAC worst 6.2 ypc in MAC play, UB isn' that much better at 5.3 ypc allowed. UB has had the benefit of playing the weaker east teams for the most part and NIU has had to face the Toledo's, Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan types which are better in one way or the other vs some of the East teams. NIU also played Kent. So maybe all of that strength of schedule skews the stats to paint NIU in a more favorable light and Buffalo in a worse one.

Both games seem tough to me.

Pretty big fan of NIU and over tonight, only means one thing when I get that team total

 

[Rusty Trombone]

NIU and UNDER are the plays tonight. WInd gusts up to 30mph tonight....Lombadri and crew will ground and pound to a 31-13 win

Long as their team total hits, already on over so can't buy out...just need NIU to pound out some chunk yardage plays

 

[Marsski]

That was a gross night for me. On NIU ML tonight

Whoa you're thinking a rally shower tonight? Washing the sins out at HT is a bold move

Against you. One of us will be happy

Haven't turned to Maction, hope something good happens. One last night not watching football before the weekend is pretty relaxing but better if I can hit a couple. Didn't even get NIU team total in

Unfortunately, I did 1H. No way they exceed 14.5

 

[booksbestfriend]

TD Buff

 

[booksbestfriend]

He may be short

 

[booksbestfriend]

Damn...McDuffie leaps 7 yards into the ez

 

[booksbestfriend]

I wouldn't kick if he can do that. Go 2-pt everytime

 

[s--k]

Ball St game TV feed all messed up

 

[s--k]

NIU is going to have to play run different 2nd H. They aren't good enough to stop UB run with however they planned doing it

Nope. Gonna have to think about 2H to make back 1H losses. Completely whiffed on this read.
