OPT: NMSU

I think I could score against both these 2 great defensive units, but I barely give us the nod...

 

[utep2step]

Just got wind Kugler is bringing in the "flying V" formation back. He loves old school, old school it shall be.

Higgins gets creative and brings back the Jail Break to solve our passing problem, but calls it the Miner Jail Break. So we now have a total of 4 plays in Higgins COMPLEX playbook.

Surprised almost everybody has the Miners scoring in the 30s considering our offensive woes.

24-21. Not overly confident it'll be us on top but there is NO way I give the Aggs the nod...no way.

Georgia State put up 34 against NMSU. George State has won 1 game the past 2 seasons before their NMSU victory. Yes we are 0-2 but we have played Arkansas and Tech. NMSU is a huge drop off from those teams. Our O-line is good and we should still be able to run the ball against their defense with ease.

Valid points, however without AJ, hell even with him, we have an anemic offense. Unless nmsu's defense just flat out sucks, which is a possibility as I haven't watched them this year, I just don't see us putting up the points. I stick by my prediction of 24, 28 tops.

Ughhh no. Don't think we are capable of scoring over 30 at this point.

It's a PREDICTION thread . That's mine, where's yours?

Saturday marked Georgia State's first ever Sun Belt win and their first victory over an FBS opponent.

We should roll, but if we dont play better on defense we will lose. I think for the first time all season we will create turnovers. This game scares the crap out of me.

Alot of field goals from the Miners but we get the W.

Without 99.9% of our offense playing, and with our lack of pass rush; inability to close running lanes; and piss-poor DB play, the sheep f*ckers from Las Cruces get their fist win over us in quite a few years. Bummer.

 

[homeskillet75]

I predict that the Miners will hurt my soul this weekend.

 

[allminer]

Miners 45
the fifth most popular team in Las Cruces 28.

Miners better enjoy the next two games because that's it for the year. Our defensive line and linebackers will create enough havoc to help our secondary these next two games. Yes, even without Jones, 45 points. With Jones I would have called it 52-19.

The next OPT should be how many RB's Higgins and Kugler can wear out.

Nmsu will score, utep will score, we get help in secondary this week so last minute drive by Nmsu is intercepted

And two offenses that don't exactly light the world on fire either.

You've gotta cut me some slack here. This is the first time I've posted a prediction on this board.

Darrin Laufasa will take advantage of Aaron Jones absence. He will rush for 120 yards and receive for 50.

At least you think we're going to win. That's what's important . As long as we win, she can be as ugly as an ugly sister who takes you to church.

 

[El Paso Chihuahuas]

It looks like Rot won this week.

 

[Rot]

Woohoo

 

[allminer]

I thought Hollywoodminer's prediction was crazy, but he wasn't too far off either. A few more overtimes and he was there.

Rot: Let's get the OPT started!
