I think you are going to get your wish...

Re: 2017 Quarters vs Wofford
I looked at who Wofford has played this year. With the exception of their FBS game, I didn't really recognize any of the teams except Furman from our prior playoff game and barely Chattanooga and Citadel. Lots of close games though.
9/9 @ Mercer W 28 - 27
9/23 vs Gardner-Webb W 24 - 27
9/30 @ Presbyterian W 31 - 7
10/7 vs WCU W 28 - 35
10/14 @ Citadel W 20 - 16
10/21 vs Samford L 24 - 21
10/28 @ East TN St W 31 - 24
11/4 vs Chattanooga W 21 - 24
11/11 @ VMI W 45 - 14
11/18 @ South Carolina L 10 - 31

There should be some plays to be had for Stick and the WR's down field, need to make the most of them. This will be a tight game and a play or 2 may decide it. Can't have turnovers and need to play sound for 4 quarters.
i am pretty sure i heard their passing game is ranked like dead last or pretty close to last......did i hear wrong?

Wofford's options is a little different than Georgia Southern's option. Crush them in the middle, force them outside, and then hit for losses or fumbles - much easier in theory than in practice.
Of course, I think it's moot if the offense can score 27 points.
true.... easier said than done.....But, its also option FB and like the veer their is a reason we dont see it in higher level fb. all u have to do is play your assignment and beat your man. its not like your making multiple reads or they are disguising anything. i just dont see a EB or McKinnon type on this team....which won 50% of the one on one battles when we played them. maybe its green or gold glasses. i dont see us getting confused and i dont see us losing to many 1x1. of course maybe they have southern speed, but i like our horses better than theirs.

Having Allison at CB would be huge also. He's one of the best tackling corners the Bison have had in years IMO. He was listed as the starter on yesterday's depth chart but Klieman didn't address the recovery from his concussion in any of the tweets I read from the media members there.

Why do you say that? Wofford is a very similar team to what they were in 2011, minus Eric Br. Physical team.
Re: 2017 Quarters vs Wofford
I assumed he meant that no players on either team were around then. So no Wofford players have experience with the Dome noise, etc.
Re: 2017 Quarters vs Wofford
Wofford scored a touchdown on an empty back field pass and on a fake fg last week. Furman must have stopped the option a little bit. I'll take the Bison D in this one.
