But not until 11/23. We have a bye next. Valpo gets to play Dayton next Saturday.

i77- Do you know if Massey's early season predictions became reality for the Cats? Did he predict 7-4?

There is a decent chance Massey didn't predict Cleland's injury in game 1.

I am not sure if Massey is throwing darts or using a sophisticated computer model. I would think a computer model might factor in injuries.


FWIW- Thanks for the Football video. It was great. Fortunately you did not focus on my disaster years. :oops:

If Massey had us figured for worse injuries than our opponents, we definitely want to know that, and we should have a lot of follow-up questions.

Glad you liked the video. My biggest concern is always the reactions of actual players.

Assuming we knock off Valpo, we would be close to that.

The 0 - 4 field goal kicking at Dayton was a monkey wrench.
