I didn't get a lot out of that media call other than he's a glass half full kind of coach. Sounds like his defense will be ready, but offense may be a little suspect. We'll see. Neither one IS or WILL BE ready. #TrustMe

I know that a win is a win is a win. But, if we don’t win comfortably we are going to be in trouble for the rest of this season. NCCU is a rivalry game , anything can and will happen in those types of games . Rivalries do not dictate how your season will go . Rivalry games are a intirely different game all together. I get the rivary game. But you don’t have that luxury when you 0-2

But you don’t have that luxury when you 0-2 The luxury is that you have a 50/50 chance to win going into the game a win is a win against a FCS opponent , win and move on to the B S****it . O-2 or even 0-3 in OOC games is nothing like 0-2 or 3 in conference.

As far as I'm concerned the biggest issue for us is who will be on the field? Can't keep having key personnel sitting out.
I think nccu's strategy will be to play solid defense, field position and have no turnovers. Keep things close and pull it out in the 4th qtr. Same thing that worked against Alcorn.

Yeah make the game be ugly if they can keep the game close at the half that will give them a lot of confidence we on the other hand got to jump on them early.

The injury statuses seem to be closely guarded secrets, like the General’s herbs and spices.

I believe that our O-Line will show and Prove again. And THIS time it won’t be 3 yards and a cloud of dust.

They were pinning Wssu at their own 2-8yd line….that’s a long way to drive down the field . Hopefully coaches have some ways to prevent that. And we still need a solid returner. We can’t sleep on their returner that’s for sure . Wssu did a great job containing him from hitting those edges and the center for a big run

The last time I checked WSSU is a D2 school! As Perk can say, Carry on!

Last time I checked we lost to Morgan two years in a row.
We also had a sordid history of losing to programs the year after beating the hell out of them.
I'd be looking at these cats like they was the '85 Bears if I was the team.

NCCU had a streak of just bad coaches after Jerry Mack left. The other thing is that Oliver knows our schemes like the back of his hands and has a better crop of his own players that he has gathered over the last two years.

The thing is I don't know if he knows the 2021 version of us. And sometimes, I don't know if anyone outside of that coaching staff knows this version.

The thing is I don't know if he knows the 2021 version of us. And sometimes, I don't know if anyone outside of that coaching staff knows this version. This year's version is only different because on paper the talent level is different. The schemes are essentially the same, the philosophy is the same but the talent is better in the 2-deep roster. That means your ability to execute more of your playbook, that means fresher legs in the 4th quarter. What they/we have not seen is (1)a fully healthy defense, (2)an offensive line that is solid at the tackle positions and operating as a unit, (3)a fully comfortable Jalen Fowler at QB, and (4) a healed up Jah-Maine. We may see all of these on Saturday night. If we do ...
