Serious question- what worries you about FIU?

[ctbrown24]

Their QB? Defense? RB? No game is a gimmie.

If I had to answer, I'd say their QB's going deep against our D. Their QB's have thrown 7 TD's and 2 INT's.

[E.T.]

USF needs to play smart and HARD ! We'll win easily.

Want to know how I had a long day?

FIU has allowed 7 passing TD's and have picked off two.    Oops.......

Nonetheless- I don't want our guys overlooking this game.

[JerseyBull06]

us writing them off as an easy win and something happening to change that...I'm as confident as anyone going into this game but no game is a given

and the hotel I'm staying at...I let guys book it so that worries me a lot too, though I don't think that's what you meant

[E.T.]

They have allowed an avg of 19 yards per Punt Return.

QB's have been sacked 9 times.

[Orlando Bull]

They will be athletic. I expect their defense to be fast with a couple of guys that can make big plays.

My biggest concern is going to be kick/punt coverage. I am sure they will have a playmaker, and we need to shut it down. Cover teams were our only major issue with UCF. Better last week, but guys from the midwest aren't FL players.

Second concern, they are going to be amped up. New stadium. Our guys will not be excited. They go from playing infront of 58k in a big game to 18k in a "trap" game.

I think all of these factors will make the game close. Bulls squeak by 38-6.

[E.T.]

We must be careful punting to them, 3 returns for an average of 32 yards
