Furman doing exactly what it needs to do.

The offense is moving the ball well. Nearly 300 yards at the half. Approaching 200 rushing yards. WCU hasn't really been able to eliminate anything. Keep pounding on them.

Defensively, we are forcing them to sort of dink their way down the field and limiting the big plays. WCU averages nearly 8 yards per play this season, and they're under 6 today.

Both teams know that this is going to be all gas until the end of the game. Furman is well aware this team isn't going to go away. Keep scoring. Keep making stops.

This is actaully ridiculous. I’m not sure if I blame WCU or ESPN. Who is more responsible?
Almost assuredly WCU.
If western is to blame I am at a loss of words. What a momunmental failure for them and their program. This game is one of the first major games they have played but yet they have found a way to screw it up. I hope they get their act together on and off of the field.

SDSU just went up 7-0 over S Illinois.
And in high def on my iPad, tv, and phone if I so desire. Imagine that.

How about just off the field - not so much on. :)

I mentioned the replay in response to the post about the TV announcers continuing to call the game. Daniel Hooker is who typically would provide the TV call for WCU home games, and they just had him as a guest on the WCU radio coverage. Don't know if that was just him on a break or not. If not, that would make me think if ESPN provided announcers then they have more control of the production. But I have no idea. The Western folks want to be seeing this game just as bad as you guys.

Fair point. Sad for western beucase they are finally relevant after so many years
Tough for Furman too, who could have eyeballs on them in a nationally relevant game.

Feel like we sort of dominated the first half and only up 20-14. Would be a tough game to lose after being up 13-0 and 20-7.

No TV sucks but I will take a win for sure.

We've had big leads the past few years. It's gonna be a four quarter fight and we just need to keep their offense on the sideline.

Special teams decisions today:

Take an extra point off the board and fail going for 2pt try
2 missed field goals
A 1 yard punt
And an pointless onside kick try that we botch
