FAMU vs. Howard LIVE on ESPNU tonight

Post by HIU 93 »

The Rattlers look real. Howard got trounced by a pretty good Rutgers team last week. It might be more interesting than we would think. TV time is 7:30.
"This struggle may be a moral one, or it may be a physical one, and it may be both moral and physical, but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand. It never did and it never will.
... We must do this by labor, by suffering, by sacrifice, and if needs be, by our lives and the lives of others."

Watched the FAMU-WSSU game last week - FAMU didn't look good.
And Rutgers isn't anywhere near "pretty good". Did you see the Cincy game? Smoked.

With all that being said - I'll be watching the game tonight. Hopefully FAMU and Pulley will put on a better performance than last week.

Wow. People said FAMU was a team to watch out for. How is Howard supposed to be this season?

Howard is not very good, but their defense is supposedly good. We just haven't seen it yet. 31-10 FAMU with :25 left in the 2nd quarter.

The FAMU - SCSU game should be a really good one this year.

Sounds like they have a hell of a leg on the team also which is a big one if they get in a close game. This doesn't appear to be that game however.

48-10 FAMU 2:07 left in the 3rd. LEROY VANN- remember that name. He now has 4 punts returned for TDs in 3 games this season for FAMU.

FAMU looks 100 times better than they did last week. No doubt about it.

With that being said, the strength of the MEAC as a whole and the way this season is playing out for the major conferences will mean, IMO, that the winner of SC State vs. FAMU will go to Elon in Round 1 (Socon AQ) and the loser will go home for turkey day.

Either will do the MEAC proud in the first round though.

There is a lot of football to be played yet.

Very true. Just my best guess but FAMU better beat Miami in two weeks if they want to be considered for an at-large with a loss to SC State. Same goes for SC State vs. USC.

Unless Elon gets a seed, they would almost certainly go to SCSU/FAMU (in the event that is the matchup). Those two draw a bit more than the Phoenix.

You heard it here first! Elon will be #4.

But yeah, if not they're travelling.

FAMU sure was the better team on the field in that game. If they keep it up they will definitely have an argument for a high ranking

I'll remember the name, but we may not hear it very often. There is no way I'm punting to him. I'd rather go for it. :lol:
