Originally posted by ahshound View PostAgreed. The Hounds must have the toughest 6 games stretch in all of DII to start the season. at Missouri S &T (7-4), Mesa State (9-2), Commerce (14-1), at Kingsville (where they have only ever won 1 time), Midwestern (10-1), and at Tarleton State (6-6 but went to a bowl game). If ENMU can somehow win half of those games it will probably end up being a pretty darn good year. I could see ENMU going anywhere from 5-1 to 0-6 in those games. Where is Bacone, Panhandle St., Adams St., Highlands, Sul Russ to when you need them lol.

Re: Lone Star Conference Media Day 2018
hounds have won one time at kingsville, them and midwestern have traded off wins here lately, and unless Tarleton has drastically improved since last year....i dont know about that one being a toss up. Eastern beat the pants off of them last year.
But i agree the first half of the schedule is definetly the hardest.

Originally posted by Boohaha View PostEastern i suspect will finish with no more than 3 losses(i hope!).
Strand is in his JR year last year only threw 2 ints and was a serious threat to run the ball.
Losing Cass will hurt but kelley has shown he can find and produce running backs.
Walton is in as the new DC and brought in a 4-2-5. Big change for Eastern. Hopefully this will help them be more competitive with Commerce, and Midwestern. In years past the 3-4 had been the staple with numerous blitzes et al it has been a good defense but when the blitzes didnt get home they gave up big pass plays down field due to having to play man with shorter corners.
Eastern has 11(10 in region) D2 games this season, and if they go 9-2 or even 8-3 they might finally take that next step to the playoffs.
They face commerce and midwestern in weeks 3 and 5. Hopefully this helps in the having all your soldiers department. If they can come out of that first 5 weeks having only lost to midwestern and commerce, or having beat them i think they can build momentum to finish the season strong with 1 or 2 losses. Commerce game in week 3 might be a blessing, if they can get the new qb before he really gets his feet under him. Their other challenge is going to face Missourin S&t on a thursday game to start the season. Unfamiliar opponent in a cinference that may be tougher than it has historically been judging by harding going 8-3 and making it to the semis last year. Also Eastern will not have the advantage of bringing a completly unfamiliar offense to Rolla as they see harding on a regular basis.
Easterns destiny is going to be very much guided by what happens in those 1st 5 weeks.
Either way i see them finishing no lower than 4th, and maybe if they can get a few things rolling finishing 1st.
