We definitely have the defense to take this..........really going to depend on the offense.
Personally I think the team and the coaching staff learned a lot from the enema Ferris gave us last year

Re: Fhsu @ uindy
This is new ground for alot of them, including the coaches. Practices and routines....u think they are trying to maintain normality? Or does Brown think back to when he played and how those weeks were handled. I honestly believe in him and this team to RISE up and do something this year. Maybe not win it all, but to at least make it to the 3rd round. Personal opinion of course. I see the fire but I also see the nerves.

But regardless of what happens I am very proud of the team going back to back in the playoffs and being repeat MIAA champions. It was only a few short years ago we thought going to the Mineral Bowl was the greatest thing to have happened in living memory.

Originally posted by TigerGlen View PostIt is interesting on the tipping thread for the first round play offs Hays seems to be more favored at the moment.
The one big thing offensively UIndy does different than any team FHSU faced in the MIAA is very slow ball control style. They average just 60 plays a game and only 1 game had over 70 plays per game, versus S&T who arguably was the 2nd best team they faced. There is a handful of games UIndy didn't even attempt 10 passes the whole game. Contrast that style to every team in the MIAA averaged over 70 plays a game, FHSU themselves 74 per game. So this game might come down to which team can do their preferred approach best.
If UIndy controls the ball like they want, plodding along then FHSU will have to make the most of each of their possessions. If FHSU can get out to a quick two score lead, then they could force UIndy to speed up and get them uncomfortable.

Originally posted by EveryCatAWildman View PostI think the closest comparison FHSU played this year was Pitt (so that could be a good thing). Indy runs 2/3rd of the time versus 1/3rd passing plays; very similar to Pitt style. Adkins and Horak at Pitt put up similar type numbers as UIndy two backs. Although Purichia is a much more polished and accurate QB than Rodrique was/is.
