Bobcats vs Idaho 3rd round predictions

Post by NewEra » Sun Dec 08, 2024 1:18 pm

After watching the Idaho game last night I just don’t feel like they are in the same tier as the Cats. With that being said this game makes me nervous. Beating a team twice same season is always a challenge and Eck is an excellent coach who you know will pull out all the stops against us. In the end we are on a mission, playing loose and have the horses to run down their throats. They should be scared what they saw of the passing game yesterday. The days of stacking the box against us are over unless you want to get diced.

Are you the “designated” thread starter for the predictions? If so my bad. I don’t play close enough attention to who starts threads and who can only start a thread. By all means start a new one and we can delete this one.

I'm just giving you a hard time. Yes, I usually do, but no biggie. However, if we lose Friday, you will be to blame :lol:

Danny U was injured vs Idaho, Taki U is back from injury. I predict Taki makes a big play in this game.

Even Lehigh ran the ball decently well against Idaho. The score wasn't close, but Idaho wasn't super dominant on offense. Layne is better than Wagner and Josifek, but he's not a great QB. Idaho will take their deep shots, and might hit a couple. I expect the D to force Layne into several bad decisions, get a handful of sacks and a pick or two.

Good luck defending our offense. It's still getting better and becoming harder and harder to defend.

Cats - 45
Germanic Raiders - 17

This is where I’m at. Lehigh isn’t all that great, and they had success against Idaho.

Layne is better than whoever they had, but he isn’t fixing their pass blocking, he isn’t fixing the talent disparity. Idaho can’t stop us, they can’t run on us, and they can’t handle our pass rush.

40s - teens.

I think Vigen and The Boys will make a statement...again. I don't believe that they're screwing around this year and aim to put some fear into Davis and the Dakotas.

I’m not picking a score. But I see it similar to UTM. Never in doubt and Tommy only plays 1 series in the 4th.


Some people are a lot like slinkies....... Not really good for much, but it puts a smile on your face to watch them fall down a set of stairs.

The most threatening thing about Idaho is the way Eck coaches. He’s going to dial up some stuff and they’ll be going for it on fourth down etc. If they had played poorly in first game vs MSU and almost won, they’d be more conservative but I think they realize they have to pull out all the stops.

I still remember that playoff game several years ago we lost at home. One of the Dakota teams I believe but they killed us on fake punts/field goals. I think our guys are really coached up on trick stuff like that
