And this will be our first try with our "new" offense. Right? Hmmm.

Sorry. But a sad state of affairs. We should be favorite by 21. We need to bury this team. Jay Hill is a relatively young rookie head coach, (with deep Utah Ute roots), who in five years has turned Weber State into a serious playoff contender. I would venture to say, if this program continues to succeed in 2019, he too will be gone, (like ex-USU HC Matt Wells). My point? I have no doubt The Wildcats will approach the game as prepared as they can be. The wild card will be the Aztecs and what they bring to the table for 2019. Frankly looking at who is slated to be the starting QB for SDSU in 2019, perhaps the money should be on, not if the Aztecs can cover the seven point spread, but if the team will be able to score seven points in this game. As much as I admire what Coach Hill has accomplished in Ogden, if the Aztecs manage to lose this game, it will take a lot of cleaning up to salvage yet another unremarkable season.

If that is the line, it would be a pickem at Weber State. Home field is only worth 3 points. Ok 7’.5 less three is State favored by 4.5 at a neutral site. Add three To Weber state and State is only a 1.5 favorite. Close to a pickem.

Whhhhhhy are we playing Weber State? Play a reeeeaaaaaal school We'll soon know how reeeaaaaal they are. They literally aren’t on our level. We should only play FBS. Avoid “cupcakes” and build respect “In a College Football World where most blue-blood programs schedule several cupcake opponents to start the season, often including an FCS opponent, Notre Dame Football has yet to give in. Each season the Irish Football Schedule is critiqued. Many of the experts who disrespect Notre Dame’s Schedule attended schools who play FCS opponents annually. At this moment there are only two schools in the country that have yet to schedule an FCS team, Notre Dame and UCLA.”

Whhhhhhy are we playing Weber State? Play a reeeeaaaaaal school The non conf formula for high level G5 programs is to have two winnable games (wsu and NMSU), one same level team(byu) and one P5 team (ucla) . Ssme as last and previous years. Goal is to go no worse than 2-2 and hope for better coming into conf play. Last we were 3-1 doing this. What do you not get about this? Should we play ND, Oregon, Oklahoma and Alabama every year? Also, if you've been paying attention, you'd know that very few p5 teams are willing to sch us. That's Rocky talking. We are able to sch some PAC schools home/home which is a big plus . That continues in coming decade. Nothing less than h/h is acceptable for sdsu now!

Hawaii beats Arizona. We play Weber State. Weber State will probably be more motivated to beat us than we will be to beat them. Hmmm.

who wins the battles at the LOS for both teams - OL and DL determine Also TO's and special teams. Very concerning that we can't seem to find anyone that can consistently catch a punt.

What do you not get about scheduling building respect and playing someone on our level vs playing against a low tier, FCS? Playing a FCS is a waste of a game. If we lose, embarrassment. If we win, expected boredom. Fun The “formula” isn’t working. Playing these schools should be unacceptable

You should examine the way the rest of CFB schedules. Especially the SEC. take a look at their true out of conf bunnies. All the MWC and AAC teams -- same way. Objective is to go 3-1, win 7+ games or more overall , make it to a bowl game and keep your job . Why is that flawed? Give us examples of who specifically we should schedule?

I am expecting the offense to be a big mess in the opener. Will be interesting to see if we can power run the football out of a spread look.
Hopefully the D turns it over a few times and we capitalize.

Sdsu needs to separate themselves and playing the “formula” isn’t working I’m not content with being in a bad conference. We need to schedule HARDER than average and get noticed. Sub Weber St (any FCS) for Any Independent School. AAC school. Old MWC schools as we have a history. Call P6 schools to set up a basketball AND football 4 year match-up (with 2 or 4 years for football). Think Best Case: Kansas, North Carolina, Duke. I’d rather play 5 games: 3 there, 2 here against a top school than 2 home and 2 aways with a BORING game like FCS schools each year. Head vs Head can be the basic format and bridge the gap with basketball or a 5th Road game Get creative.
