Michigan fans felt this way about our game in 2007. While I agree it will be a long season if we lose to them but nobody thinks we could lose to them based on talent. There are other factors such as coaching, how well we are clicking with our system, injuries, and other stuff. Nobody is afraid of ETSU but I am afraid of what could happen if we don't practice well, don't mentally prepare, if our team comes out flat, the crowd isn't into it, coordinators call awful games, and ETSU pulls out some trick plays and somehow is able to control the clock. Losing to ETSU should not happen but I believe we all felt that way about VMI in the 90s when they were 0-10.Black Saturday wrote: ↑Wed Jun 05, 2019 3:58 pmWhy, just why are some of you afraid of ETSU? Our team is supposed to have the best seasons ever. I realize Any Given Saturday, but if ETSU beats us, it's going to be one of the longest seasons ever instead of one to remember. This should be a name your score game for Drink.
The other half of us are thinking a Top 20 Ranking at some point.
The point is while nobody is afraid of ETSU and we expect to win by 50 or more, we still need to be ready and take everyone seriously. If we are going to challenge for a NY6 Bowl and be ranked we must take every game seriously. We are everyone's Super Bowl that we play except for UNC and South Carolina. Can't overlook anyone.
