The slate is wiped clean this week for the sixth-ranked Eastern Washington University football team on Hall of Fame Day at Roos Field in Cheney, Wash.
Coming off the school’s biggest non-conference NCAA Football Championship Subdivision game in school history, the Eagles begin defense of their Big Sky Conference title when Weber State visits Saturday (Oct. 5). Kickoff is 4:05 p.m. Pacific time in a game televised live regionally by SWX.
Weber State, which had been outscored by an average score of 50-14 this season, is coming off a 31-3 home loss to Sacramento State in its league opener. The Wildcats are now 1-4 overall and won’t get a bye in their schedule until Oct. 26. Their head coach is Jody Sears, who spent five seasons (2003-07) as the defensive coordinator at Eastern Washington under Paul Wulff.
After a 50-40 season-opening home win against Stephen F. Austin, WSU went on the road for three-straight games and were out-scored 183-19 in three lopsided setbacks. The Wildcats lost 70-7 at Utah and 70-6 at Utah State in a pair of games against in-state FBS foes, and then lost 43-6 at 12th-ranked FCS foe McNeese State.
Last season, in the first start in the career of Eagle quarterback Vernon Adams, Eastern eked out a 32-26 victory in Ogden.
“They were really impressive against Stephen F. Austin, and you can’t get caught up in their record and a lot of stats,” warned Baldwin. “They have played some incredible teams already. They are well-coached and they have a good scheme – we saw that last year. We were in a dogfight with them a year ago that came down to the wire, and I would expect the same this year from them.”

Is there a mercy rule in FCS football? Perhaps WSU can send someone out at halftime with a note written in crayon from the coach that reads: Dear Eagles, we suck, and we are late for dinner so we are out. Regards, Jody and the Boys.

Two seasons without a conference title does not a changing of the guard make.

Six playoff games in Cheney the last three years, vs. only two in Missoula. The guard has changed.

No more a one team conference than any other, Cappy's. We've sent three different teams to the quarters and two to the semis the last three years.

In this conference, every team plays their nuts off against the top dog. So if you're EASTERN every conf game is just as tough as this years' non conf games. Believe it.

EWU gets a stop on D and then runs out the clock to make it 27-12 at half. Pretty sloppy first half with a lot of penalties for EWU.
