Thank you. Hated to see several of your players go down on Saturday. Hope it is not too serious. You all had another good season. Expect to have another good rivalry game or two next year.

BSU's average PPG on offense through 13 games is 33.0. Their average PPG on defense is 12.69.

VSU's average through 11 games is 44.27 PPG on offense and 19.27 on defense.

VSU was only held under 30 points once, and that was the rain delay game against Albany State's very good defense (ranked #1 in D-II for total defense).

I just don't see BSU being able to stop the Blazers; however, VSU hasn't been able to stop teams with high-functioning offenses.

Bowie is going to need a few 8 minute drives to shorten the game if they're going to have a chance. If the score gets into the 30's VSU will likely have the advantage.

In terms of stops, UWG moved the ball pretty good, but we did get 9 stops as opposed to 4 in the earlier UWG game and the UWF game. I do get your point though, teams seem to be playing into our hands, they get some success running and the start passing or they get some success passing and quit.

That's why we play the game! Yep it's always to fun to clap and yell at a ball game. Great stress release!! Woohoo!!

Hey, as long as you are in the game, you have a chance. Those who don't have a chance are sitting at home for the remainder of the season. Lace them up and may the best team win.

One of the downsides of Valdosta State making the playoffs is hearing non South Georgia/North Florida newscasters and sport reporters mispronounce Valdosta. :)

Its not Val-dose-ta" or "Val-duh-ta".

The all knowing internet says the pronunciation is
"Val-dow-stuh". I don't agree with that but close.

Its more like "Val-dah-sta". lol

Johnson the QB for Bowie was banged up Saturday. If he isn't 100%, I think it'll be a similar score to the 2018 playoff match up. Still think the Blazers win but his health determines how close the game will be.

LOL, we definitely can relate. You have no idea how many people pronounce Bowie (boo-we) as if its Bow-we
