So who gets the headstart toward the state game. If IUP wins, their spot looks locked in aside from something totally unreal. If SRU wins, oddly IUP will have to be on the phone to GARY DUNN with as much info as they can for the VULCANS 11/2 date with SRU.

Well, based on the sports fever announcers during the Rock / Hurst game, Rock has all these NFL prospects, how can IUP possibly win ? ? ? Seriously though, It should be a great game, alot depends on how the offense performs. It would be nice if our offense came up with a new wrinkle or two -maybe a third running play for a start ? . Then again IUP played the tougher schedule so far, so. We'll see.

They are arguably the same. Wayne St./New Haven are comparable with Wayne St pulling off an upset on Saginaw. Both teams played Mercyhurst. The other games you cant compare, Rock-IUP are simply more talented.

I think the winner of this game will have to run the ball effectively; neither team has been able to run the ball consistently all year. Being one-dimensional against a good team is usually not successful. The initial weather report is calling for rain; another reason that the run game will be very important.

I suppose the big difference is Cal vs Ship, the rest are the same, if you call NHU and Wayne State a Push. I think the Cal game Give IUP some confidence, and learned more about themselves - more likely to keep it close, and of winning in the end of a close game. But if IUP gets the early lead with a few big plays, how will Rock react?
That's why I feel avoiding the funeral home start like last year's game is imparative.
A fast start is a must for IUP -- something they aren't exactly famous for under Tort. They have to get SRU under some stress and quiet what will be a major crowd.
Tort has to coach a fine line this week. They are coming off a big high. He has to get them back down, focused and then back up by Saturday.
I like their chances in this game much more than I did a year ago. This a good team with good leaders ... not like the knucklheads last season.
Gonna be a battle. Two strong teams.
And, of course, this could just be Round 1.

Im currently watching film on IUP and when I say I am NOT impressed by their defensive backs would be an understatement. All that MAN coverage will get their ass embarrassed. Their LBS and DL are pretty nice, but they're slow to be honest; they are big SOLID guys
