Fun with AI

score prediculations:

I will go with 28-24 for the Furmans. Please win ! The other 3 top teams are ALL on the road... Western, Chatt and Sammy

It's an interesting question.

Watching the Morehead State game, Mercer frequently used two "stand up" ends (two point stance). Sometimes these are both "defensive ends" and sometimes both are "KATs."

I noticed this a good bit last year, but Mercer appears stylistically to prefer their defensive linemen to come up the field hard. I think they have to sort of play this way because of they go smaller in the defensive backfield at linebacker and a lot of defensive backs on the field. They need to stop teams in their backfield before they get loose in the secondary.

Just my read, but Furman may be able to exploit Mercer some with our four wideout look with inside runs.

Lance Wise finds this post interesting.

I could post half a dozen videos of Furman's offense abusing Mercer's safeties in the open field last season, but I'll refrain.

Be careful now - you already owe FUBeAR an undisclosed amount for the wager on the "Mercer is abysmal..." claim that you clearly lost.

BearDown just might challenge you to put up or pay up with regard to being able to post 6 or > videos of Furman's Offense abusing Mercer's Safeties in the open field during the 2022 Furman @ Mercer game.

You're already in the hole...credit is expensive these days...just sayin'

You know what we can count on being consistent year over year? Your hospitality. LOL

Any score guess?

If I were an opposing team fan posting on other team message board I’d say Jackal is about as polite and respectful as they come. While I haven’t experienced the hospitality at the Five Star Used Car Lot Stadium I’d suspect it would be similarly respectful.

^^^ See, FUBeAR? Told ya...

[FurmAlum]

If Mercer tries to throw it 35 times, I bet 5 don't happen as the QB is on his ass, and at least 3 of them are to us.

Furman 31
Mercer 10

On the other hand if they have more balance, which I think they will, it might be a little closer.

Furman comes out throwing and then settles into a run it down their throat mode by the second half.

[BearDownMU]

I think CCH should definitely gameplan for Drew Cronic to throw it 35+ times. Dime and quarter all day.

Yes - Jackal is the Sheldon Cooper of TheUFFP

Not too late to put this in, coaches.

This is one of the most respectful boards I visit.

No injuries and a Furman win - hey, I very much respect Mercer and Cronic... dude can coach, just hopefully not tomorrow
