Farley on his weekly call-in show confirmed that Eli Dunne will start this week

If we give him time to throw, and get Michael Malloy enough touches we win this game, and I'll say the SDSU game is a playoff game.

Every game is a playoff game at this point

I meant that 6-5 will actually get us in

Re: WIU game thread

I still have fond memories of 2008? When Herb Donnelson was supposed to be the second coming of Earl Campbell...I listened to that game on the radio while we basically copied their offense and ran it better against them.

Should be a winnable game to get back to .500 if the O-Line plays well.

It's a small possibility, but I do believe it's a possibility. I know people have been scoffing at wanting a playoff birth at 6-5 but I believe this team is finding itself and if we can continue to overcome injuries... we could make a run and gain some valuable experience for next year.

One play at a time...limit turnovers and penalties and be efficient on offense. This doesn't always mean putting points on the board as much as controlling the clock, converting on 3rd down and hitting open receivers.
Winning a close game would give this team a lot of confidence heading into next week!

We need an Illinois State loss as well. We want to be the only 6-5 MVFC team. If we're both at 6-5 it will be a coin toss as we would have similar resumes.

Go Bears???

Bears would end up at 6-5 if they beat the Redbirds and the Penguins.
although I think the convincing head-to-head win that the Panthers had over the Bears would give UNI a leg up in that comparison (where as UNI and ISU won't play each other this regular season)

5-5 against D-I, right?

All D-I schedule this season, one of the toughest schedules for an FCS school in the nation.

I think the question was regarding the bears' schedule this year

The Bears would be 5-5 vs D1 with a "meh" at best OOC.
