yes weber must realize they are overrated for not beating 2 FBS opponents 50-0 and sweeping through any opponent they face all yr.
ewu is undefeated in the sky - isu, sac, unc. i think weber can beat those teams to when they get the opportunity.
NAU was undefeated in the sky when WSU went down to flagstaff last yr.
so are u saying "overrated" weber has no chance and ewu will blowout the wildcats?

You're right, it will never end, but I'm attempting to change the argument to one about playoff consideration. Apparently Weber, EWU, NAU and sCat fans don't want to hear it.
if we all could schedule 3 NAIA's or DII's and could make the money at home why wouldnt' we? We'd start out 3-0 every yr.

Well, we did NEITHER, and still started out 3-0. ALL I'M SAYING----FOCUS HERE-----is that it's hard to build up fan support when you regularly start out the year 0-2.
2006 0-2
2007 0-4
2008 1-1
2009 0-2
That doesn't scream "honey lets get out to Weber and catch the game!" And ultimately the only long term solution is to build fan support.

im not implying um plays all NAIAs n DIIs, im just saying its not a bad idea. come thanksgiving a win is a win and a loss is a loss so why play an fbs and lose in a close score?

11-0 has a better shot at a seed than 9-2.
Except NAIA's and D-II's don't count towards the 7-win requirement.

Although EWU is favored at home by 9.81 points over Weber State, according to the latest Sagarin "predictor" calculations, this weekend should be a great game.
There is good news for EWU: Taiwan Jones!
There is good news for Weber:
1. The EWU defense will not be as tough as the MSU defense. Expect 500+ yards from Higgins and Co., and barring mistakes, a lot of scoring!
2. Kevin Linehan is healthy and Ryan Eastman will be back on the Wildcat defensive line after being MIA for the past two games. This is huge for WSU.
If Weber wins the turnover battler, the Wildcats will win.

As dangerous as Jones is, to be honest, I think we are still more dangerous through the air. Nichols is a very dangerous QB and is more mobile this year than in the past.

FIFY.
Of course I take your point that there is more to the EWU offense than Taiwan Jones, but would you not agree that Jones is the biggest difference between this year's Eagles' offense and last year's?

I'll agree with that. We were a bit one-dimensional last year.
