Game Day: @CMU
It is November (there were elections yesterday) and the weather is becoming November-like in the Midwest. Should be dry and in the 30s at game time.
Game time temps in my house will be 72. Game is on ESPN-U and radio on WEMU. I got the simulcast done pat. I can 'delay' the telecast to synch with the broadcast.
The game apparently opened as pick em in Vegas and now EMU by 2 points.

RE: Game Day: @CMU
This will be a good game. Obviously, EMU has to win out and will be desperate. Can we stop Shane Morris? Probably not, but he must be contained for the W.

RE: Game Day: @CMU
Excited for this one! I want to see Shane Morris on his rear tonight.
Winning streak vs Central can be established. We had a 3 year W streak against WMU a few years ago. We're due for one over CMU.

Get after them and get a win tonight. Most importantly, beat the crap out of them physically so they're still limping when NIU goes up there in a couple weeks.

Bob, Earlier this season you said Morris was better than Roback. I believe Roback is much better than Morris. It's a team game for sure but let's see who wins the QB competition.

We shall see. The Brogester can be wildly inconsistent. When he's good, he's very good, when he loses focus, he makes brutal mistakes. I have no idea how he's going to perform tonight in a hostile environment, which is the beauty of sports. As for Shane Morris, I cannot get his performance at Kansas out of my mind: 28-37, 467 yards, 5 TD's, 0 ints...Those numbers would be tough to put up vs a Pop Warner team! This guy is dangerous and he must be contained!

EMU has a better D than Kansas. I'll take the Roback tonight.
P.S. I doubt the environment will be 'hostile'. I would think the crowd will be smallish because of the chilly temps.

Morris is wildly inconsistent. He can look like Tom Brady or JaMarcus Russell and anything in between. I don't expect a big crowd tonight because the weather and it's later in the season against an opponent that is 3-6 (no offense).
This game should be pretty even.

The cold and 8 pm kickoff on a Wednesday will dictate the attendance. Opponents record does not matter for college students or for season ticket holders. It’s not like this is a non conference FCS opponent. Especially if you know anything about our season, the record is not an indicator of what kinda team we are. But keep underestimating us, we love it!
