From what I remember Idaho State was using their backs to get the edge and break away with speed. From what our friends from down south are saying it sounds like they are pounding the middle with FB dive. Interior linemen are going to have to be on point with LBs filling the gaps.

The past couple of games the Mustangs have been having some success running on the perimeter. Two of Cal Poly's four losses were winnable games, IMO. In both the Weber State and Montana games the Mustangs screwed the pooch preventing victory. CP was totally over matched against NDSU and EWU.

Isn't this one of the students from the Aggie Pack heyday?

Trust, Unity, and Togetherness.

I hope you guys can get your offense figured out again, just not this weekend. EWU and NDSU are very very good teams and any given week have the potential to annihilate their opponent. Montana's performances the last couple weeks against Portland State and North Dakota have been surprising to say the least. Weber State is a weird team for me. Their offense is almost non-existent at times, but their defense is killer.

I think we are finally starting to figure things out on offense, it's the defense that worries me. We have a couple of redshirt freshmen and a true freshman starting on our defensive line and we aren't tackling particularly well. I agree that Weber's defensive front seven is stout and I was less than impressed with their offense, especially quarterback play.

We sure did. Good news, the option is designed to take advantage of one defensive mistake. if the assignments can be stuck to, you've got a good chance to stomp it out. Poly can pound it, give them a yard they'll take 5, every time. Have to be sound on D.

I truly enjoy our games against Cal Poly, and truly mean it when I say “may the best team win” ✌

Do you think seats will be available say Friday? I wont really know if i can go until late in the week.

Especially this year.....

There should definitely be tickets available right up until game time. The team has only been drawing around 7,000 and capacity at Spanos is around 12,000

thanks, i went ahead and made my contribution to cal poly and bought a ticket. Hope i can get down there.

I do not expect a sellout with our record over the last two seasons, but if there is a Cal Poly football game that has any chance of selling out this season it will be this game. The Aggie fans will travel and they will bring their band. If the game is a dud the battle of the bands after the game should be good. It is also family weekend so that should also increase attendance. I just hope we can at least make a game of it.

From the highlights it looks like what I would expect from a TO team. Defense is going to have to contain and not allow the big play. I think our offense should be able to do some damage to them though.

Whatever's on that EWU tape, I hope we do that.

That will require Cal Poly to fumble the ball right into your defenders hands taking it the distance. We didn't block well in that game, but we made up for it by not tackling.

AggieFinn is fired up!

I always thought SLO was a great warm up for the Bison.

If our offense can stay as explosive as it has been most of the year, the Ags win easily. I see it going like this...CP 10 plays 53 yard drive for a punt...UCD 3 plays 82 yards for the TD. If CP gets behind early, it will be long day for the Mustangs. If, however, CP can D-up early, and keep the ball in their hands for scores, its a close game until the 4th when their luck runs out. Time of possession is not relevant if we score every time.

Ditto on that :).

Be careful what you wish for.........

CP has proven that at times TOP means little.

TOP is the most over-rated statistic in football. Option teams eat clock, but often struggle in 3rd and long, and are in big trouble if they get down early. If its a score-fest, I think CP is cooked.

We want Bama :rofl:

You're probably right but the Mustangs have actually won score-fests in the past. It basically requires them to score on pretty much every possession.

At times I wonder if there's much difference between NDSU and Bama :joke:
