I am not much into speculation but I am wondering what others think of my Thunderbirds. Will SUU make the playoffs this year? They started off great this year, minus the shit stain they put in their bed last week, and have some hurdles to leap from hear on out.

With PSU next up, with ISU later on and NAU to finish up the season at home.

Hope they can go 2-1 with them....

With EWU, WSU, MSU on the road, I only see a WSU win...but if MSU or EWU has injuries or fumbles the game away...anything could be possible 1-2

So if SUU goes 3-3 the rest of the way out, it would give them 7-5 with a FBS win. Could they backdoor themselves into the playoffs with their strength of schedule or would they have to knock off MSU/EWU to make the playoffs?


I sure hope the UC Davis loss doesn't come back to bite us late in the season.

Unfortunately, I really think it will. I think you'll have your hand full with PSU this week because no one has really stopped them - they've only killed themselves with penalties and correctible mistakes.

You'll beat ISU and WSU but the other three are tall orders.

7-5 and one of the last teams out is my reckoning.

BTW, your avatar makes me think I'm talking to Wayne.

93 is on my shit list until possibly tomorrow or Thursday until I change.

PSU hasn't shown they can correct their penalty problems so far...what makes you think they can now?

If they do go 8-4..they are in..right?

I think an 8-4 team from the Big Sky is in...yes.

The question is...are you bringing your t-bird loving ass to Cheney next week?

I am shooting this weekend both days....but, I may be able to be persuaded......

I didn't realize a FCS could schedule 12 games. But to answer the question: My bet would be that if they end up 7-5 according to your scenario they do not get in. If they do beat Montana State or Eastern Washington and finish 8-4 their chances, I think, would be very good.

1). It's the 19th (how does a suu fan not know their own schedule???)

2). My boys have enough weaponry to fully arm your Montana Militia. They will take you shooting on the back hill. Does that count?

3). SE moved back to the Dry Shitties. I repeat no SE....

Rumor has it he joined a mexican drug gang called the "Sombreros de ala Plana" and moved back to Kennewick where he's now their official photographer/DJ, taking pictures of bodies hanging off of bridges while spinning discs and such.

Nasty business.
