    Default Eastern Washington pregame thread

    Here is how the Eagles O-line is shaping up. Looks like 5 returning starters, with some players switching spots on the front 5. (IIRC EWU had to replace all 5 starters last season)

    LT - Nick Ellison - 6' 6" 310 - JR - starter at RT last season
    LG - Tristen Taylor - 6' 6" 315 - Soph - starter at LT last season
    C - Spencer Blackburn - 6' 2" 285 - JR - returning All Big Sky 2nd team
    RG - Matt Meyer - 6' 5" 310 - JR - returning starter
    RT - Chris Schlichting - 6' 5" 300 - Soph - starter at LG last season

    Interesting comment on this year's Eastern Washington offense.....

    The Eastern Washington offensive linemen didn’t get much time to rest on their laurels.

    They grew up in a hurry last year, helping the Eagles win another Big Sky Conference title.

    The reward was more adjustments – to a more run-heavy offense, a new position coach and the adjustment of higher expectations for a group that exceeded them last year.

    Eastern Washington QB Gage Gubrud was named 2nd team preseason AA by STATS. Gubrud is a 6' 2" 205 lb junior.

    Jay-Tee Tiuli, a 6' 4" 315 senior DL, was named to the 3rd team.

    I'm going to guess yes since there was one for the Montana game too.

    The alumni association is not providing a tailgate area. They didnt mention anything about a pep rally when I talked to them.

    It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.

    The Bison will be stepping into a hornet nest at East Wash, they will be ready for us. Anyone that thinks we won't have to play lights out to win isn't thinking straight. EWU's strong OL could make for a long day in getting to the QB, and could keep us guessing in the Run/Pass mix. We could potentially lose this one if our Offense is not hitting on all cylinders. We will need to run the ball and control the clock.

    Agreed. Hopefully Entz learned a few things from last years defensive strategy about what not to do! Would be nice to have several long TD drives from the offense.

    Nobody thinks EWU won't have a tough time? BB and CK gone. That's a huge loss
