I like how some of you UD fans refer to it as "big boy football"...I get the impression you guys think your the Green Bay Packers and ODU is just some pop warner football program.
They are going to seem like the Packers to you compared to the Pop Warner teams you've been playing.
I'm pretty sure every single William is mary fan told us the EXACT same thing last year. How'd that work out? Oh yeah, the team that won the CAA last year trailed 56 out 60 minutes against us and pulled it out by the skin of their teeth.
That team was MUCH younger than this one is. Also, the line opened at a ridiculous 23 points. It's now moved to 19. If you know anything about gambling that is an insane amount of betting on odu to cover that spread.
Honestly, all ridiculous smack talk and bravado aside, I think we lose this game if only because it's our first road game against a ranked team, our first caa game, our first caa road game and Delaware is quite frankly probably a better team.
With that said, it'll be much closer than some of you chickens think and honestly, it wouldn't surprise me in the least to see us up at the half.
For odu fans this is in fact a win win. If we win, every single one of us will blow this thread up with page after page of smack. If we lose, so what, you are a national title contender and were a third year program in our first year in the CAA and we are on the road.
The only real "loss" for odu fans will be if we get dusted by 25 points or more. That would be a wake up call no odu fan wants to get.
Enjoy the game ladies, try not to think too hard about what our players and fans look like in skirts (I know that will be impossible for some of you). I expect a good game and god forbid odu wins or UD fans will NEVER live this down.
Go monarchs!
