Cardfan, I hope your prediction is wrong again. You have a pretty bad record so far this year.

When your team’s bar of success is to win one out of every two games they participate in, I think Cardfan’s predictions have a 50% chance of being accurate.

Ill never say we can not beat someone cause I have seen to many weird things happen. Its going to take a monster effort though and WMU is going to have to help as well

If BSU plays disciplined, error-free football, they have the talent to win these next games. Oooooooohhhhhhhmmmmmmmmmm. Also, we need to score early and score often. They average 36 ppg. We need to keep tempo in this game.

vEGAS sees WMU as a 7.5 favorite I'd think the momentum betting would be to Western. The book might be offering a premium to attract BSU money. We're the less certain bet this week. I would be surprised if we win this gut check game for Western, against the odds, but no idea at all on margin. Conceivably ugly game for Western if we can sucker punch them, then control the clock.

We are all much more optimistic than we were last yr & we won that game.

The problem is it no longer looks really good.
It is not by any measure really bad.
4-4 is out of the mud, so to speak. No longer mired at the bottom. That progress may not exactly thrill anyone, but it will lead to an extension and a chance to climb further up the ladder.

We showed more who we are in our losses vs better teams. We are sloppy and undisciplined at times and better teams make us pay for it. We found ways to lose. We made just enough plays against meh niu and emu teams to beat them. Toledo we just caught at the right time as they were trying to figure out their qb situation. As James Whitford would say, we were clicking on all fires that day.
Wmu is a better team and will devour us after our mistakes.

That could swing the game either way, but we start out at a disadvantage, they might survive mistakes more easily.
I just think they are a better team, and are playing at home in a game that counts for both teams. Unlikely we catch them flat.
It's not just mistakes that can beat us. Both teams play well, we probably lose majority of the time. They play average, we can win with a good game. That's the hand we are dealt.

Yes, they are the better team, playing at home, and the game has importance. Thads why they’ll win, simple as that.

I do not talk about Cardfans posts often. You do not want to mess up the system!!!! I will say this though there have been two occasions now where he has said next year we could be very good. This is really unlike that ugly sumbitch when he says something like this it should be noted. I agree we are very close to being really MAC good. Our biggest problem now is ourselves and stupid mistakes.. If we clean up some things we can be in every game. Just a couple years ago we were getting blown out by 40 in most MAC games. I doubt we win the west year and a meaningless trip to the cock and Balls bowl is not a guarantee. I do think things are heading in the right direction though.. WMU is going to smash us
