La Tech's only win is against Nicholls with a 25-17 win. Subsequent losses at NC State (20-3-), Tulsa (20-23 OT) and FIU (10-17).

This actually might be a good game between two struggling teams.

pillow fight of the week?

More like whoopie cushion

 

[MTTim]

Based on what I have seen so far. Our defense should be able to keep them out of the end zone. Maybe our offense can get a td or two.
I think we win this by 10.
GO BLUE!

70% of the money is coming in on La Tech. The line has moved from La Tech -3.5 to -4.5 or -5.

We have an opportunity tomorrow when most people don’t expect much. Curious how we will look with the extra prep time.

W? L? I don't know.

But now is when we need to start showing some competitive-ness.

19-8 is the record of the teams we’ve played

9-14 is the record of the teams LT has played

Should be a good gauge where we’re at.

Cumbie not going to call plays

@MattBelison: NEW: Sonny Cumbie will turn play-calling duties over to Co-OC/OL coach Nathan Young for #LATech moving forward. SC will still coach QBs. SC: "I have to own the fact that we havenÂt played very well on offense."

That’s a smart move, but probably out of desperation given his record and the fact he’s on track to be fired this year if their season doesn’t turn around.

It is VERY difficult for a HC to be good at all the duties of HC and be the team’s coordinator/play caller.

I’ll probably be flipping between MT @ LaTech and the CCU @JMU games.

The UTEP @ WKU game will be like the one last night in Jacksonville, AL.
