A Crazy Game for sure. NCCU won't know what to expect. Us Running the Ball with a Running Clock (shortening the game like Bill Parcells), or us passing to set up the Run. Also, I cant wait to see a punt return. After seeing the press conf., Coach is trying to Produce Pros. Get this Team, with a Crowd and Band behind them...they may explode on NCCU. |

Reading a 60 percent chance of rain. Rain was good to us last time we had Richards and NCCU here

Man, I can't wait until Coach Brown get this team to a place where he's spending all his time in the press conference explain why our team and players are doing so well rather than why they did so poorly. It's going to be fun listening to him speaking eloquently on our success! Now let's go kick some tail this Saturday! |

Sagarin has A&T as about 7-point favorites and gives us a 66% chance of winning. Massey is giving A&T a 68% chance of winning by 7 points.
What do the computers know that we aren't seeing?

For those who really watched the game last week intently on the positives and didn't harp on the negative stuff beyond our control could see things the that bodes well for us in the future. 1. Offensive Line (advantage us) 2. Run game as a strength 3. Players not giving up and fighting all 4 quarters 4. Full roster available and healthy this week 5. Those cheating birds not being able to know our plays to their advantage 6. It's a rivalry game, so throw all the stats, preseason and last year's accolades out the window |

NCCU on grass. This could have been interesting, except for all of those former Coaches over there.

Well, I went to the Queen City Aggie-Eagle Pre-Game Mixer yesterday afternoon in Charlotte and it was interesting. Here are some of my takeaways:
1. A lot of Eagle Alums showed up. I mean they almost outnumber us Aggies. In past years, very few Eagle Alums would show up for these types of events. And if they did, they were low key.
2. The Eagles that showed up were openly bragging about what they did last year and what they had for us this year. It's amazing how one public butt whipping can embolden a fan base.
3. They wore special made tee shirts that said "NCCU beat AT&T" and they took great pride in them. Expect to see half the stadium wearing these shirts on Saturday night.
4. They seriously believe that based on our poor showing against UAB, they are going to kick our butts again this year.

Not surprised. They are some of the most fair weather fans I know, and half my family went to that school smh. They are definitely coming deep this year because they feel they have the better team. Last year they were on the fence and shocked they won lol.

This doesn’t surprise me in the slightest because MAYBE 5% of the HBCU community has actual cfb knowledge & an understanding of divisions/subdivisions & the disparity in levels. It was folks from WSSU clowning A&T losing to Duke the past couple years. |
