We all know MT has never beaten a ranked team in FBS. Has Stockstill ever beat a team just receiving votes for the top 25????

Should be a good game. I like buying the hook and bringing MT up to +7. We are due for a win at home.

Looking back over our games with FAU, those have been some of the most memorable and surprising games as far as results. Two years ago with Brent Stockstill in his last year and the team a solid underdog, instead of going for the tie score late, CRS broke all sorts of expectations, conservative coaching principles, and went for two, and won the game. Kiffen is no longer the coach, Taggart is the FAU coach, and while he may be a good recruiter, he's not going to be confused with Nick Saben on the field. If it's cool and rainy, and O'Hara plays a good game with no stupid turnovers, MT has a puncher's chance if the game is close in the 4th quarter.

Injuries!? Pretty sure we could've used that excuse every single game the past 6 years.

 

[SpaceRaider]

So if this team finishes the season with 9 games instead of the original 12, does CRS and staff salary get cut 25%??? I assume the season ticket holders get a refund for home games not played, so shouldn't the university get a refund of a portion of salaries???

 

[MT01]

No. He’ll get a bonus and an extra year - you know - for going 8-1 (i.e. successfully playing 8 games and only had to cancel one).

Watch them add the year because he did not get a 'chance to win 6 games'
