Re: 2017 Game 3: Robert Morris
Haven't heard this much confidence since NDSU lost to USD. Game is going to be a 7-pt affair at the half.
And these guys are going to surprise a lot of people:

Can you provide any insight on Robert Morris?

I won't provide a history of the young program.
But as for the 2017 Colonials, they have finally found their QB after 3 years of going through multiple QBs during the season. Jimmy Walker is a gun-slinger who transferred to RMU from San Diego St.
Yes, their OL is very very young. They have 4 true Fr. listed as starters and a RS Fr. So really that is 5 new faces only making their 4 college football appearance.
They have 3 very good TEs. Reggie Green is a transfer from Pitt but their big target is So. Matt Gonzalez. They will split him out to create match-up advantages for him. Dalton Elliott will also see time in their 2 or 3 TE sets.
RMU has 3 RBs they can use but it will start with RS Fr. Harrison Dreher who had made 84 yds on 19 carries vs YSU in his 1st start.
RMU will do WR by community. They spread the ball around to everyone. I personally feel the lack of a true #1 WR can hurt this team in the long run.
Mike Miller is the OC who spent several years on the NFL with the Arizona Cardinals.
The strength of RMU for years has always been their D. They will play a 3-4 and 4-3 through the game. Expect more 4-3 in hopes of slowing down the run. Their DL is a little young but skilled. Their ILBs are very good and their OLB, Gerald Ferguson is opening eyes with scouts with his play so far in 2017 but the experience in the secondary is their strength.
RMU does have one of the top punt returners in the FCS in Warren Robinson.

They going to have enough TD booms this time? I want to get my money's worth.

We've given up about 0 yards in punt return yards the last year and change... I like to think it's because of our great coverage ability but have to lean towards the fact the ball doesn't go very far.

It's still a stat I'll take.
