SFA is Division I in every sport except football (Division I FCS)

Wrong! You are Div 1 in football. You are just in the FCS subdivision of Division I.

No Lumberjack fan will argue with you on that Texas State has our number in football. It's like a curse.

Even during the Jack's 2010 SLC Championship season we blew a 24 point 4th quarter lead at home losing 24-27 to a last place (1-6) Bobcat team.

Haven't beaten Texas State since 2003.

I was at that 2012 game in San Marcos, that being Texas State's first year on the FBS level, and we almost pulled off the upset.

Down 17-41 midway through the 3rd quarter the Jacks came storming back with 20 unanswered points behind Gus Johnson who put over 100 yards on the ground scoring 3 TDs pulling it to 37-41 (would have been 39-41 with a field goal winning it put Wiggs missed 2 PATS) But Attaway throws a pick, 3rd and goal at the Bobcat 9.

We lost but what a game.

Now basketball that's another story.

I think we should treat it like NFL teams treat preseason. Give the starters one or two possessions. Maybe an entire quarter. Then bring in Ertz or whatever. Could probably give all non redshirted freshmen 3 quarters and still win comfortably.

Me too. We'd be better off in the long run. What difference does it make whether we win by 35 or 63? It's all about #AuburnGameTho

My guess is Bill just runs Gronk up the middle all game without throwing a single pass. Uber vanilla style.

Would give us a chance to give Ertz a chance to get on the field in a "real" game.

That walk on QB too. I say we have them alternate possessions.

Well of course we don't get the top recruits like a Big 12 team, but we do get who we can in East Texas high school talent (pretty much the left overs after the Big 12 get theres), JUCOs and FBS transfers lost on the depth chart of other programs or who just want to come home, and believe it or not there are some top shelf players on this team and they are mucho hungry.

Our last coach J.C. Harper just left a mess of a broken team, beaten down and left wondering. Then a proven winner in coach Clint Conque comes knocking (he always loved SFA) breaths new life into the program with new schemes and new players. I posted Conque's record against FBS teams while at Central Arkansas and his teams do give a game of it, but in the end depth and talent does win out.

More fun to know about the team you're about to play and their back story to give meaning to it all instead of looking at your opponent simply as...

Is it like:
1st) Big 12
2nd) SFA
3rd) SEC?

thanks.

Line opens at K-State -36.5

History says we don't cover the opener vs D2 squads however after last years debacle vs Northern Dakota Tech, I won't be surprised if we win this one by 50ish.

Wait, I didn't see any highlights in that video from the McNeese game....uh.....maybe because.......uh......there weren't none.

I do like their tradition at home games of a player sinking the axe in the wood before their team takes the field. That is pretty neat. Of course, I think at the McNeese game it took two tries as it bounced off the first time. Nothing went right for them that game.
