Any scouting report / insights on the game this weekend. I know they are D2 and are 0-2 but don't know much about them otherwise.
Thx

This should be 70-0 Elon. We'll see what happens.

I agree with FC. DT and the offense should have a field day in this one.

We will win. Not sure 70 points will be scored. Notice I didn't predict we would score 70. But with the time, recruiting, experience, familiarity with the system, quality of the opponent, etc., we SHOULD score 70 and hold FSU to 0.

I think Elon is the only CAA member that scheduled a DII opponent this year...Fayetteville State has a new coach and returns the core of their team...QB is a duel threat (like Maxwell from GW, but I doubt will be as effective against us) I'm predicting Elon 42, FSU 10 on the blog: bit.ly/2cXKBRa

Agree with the above....
Fun facts to ponder. ... well maybe not so fun but interesting!!!
- The point spread for tomorrow's game is 24.5
- Elon has scored 24 points in 3 games dating back to 2014. A win vs Maines last year and 2 losses in 2014 vs JMU & Delaware
- the last time the Phoenix beat an opponent by 24.5 points was 9/7/13 vs West Virginia Wesleyan, 49 - 7
Tomorrow may be the springboard we need or could very well throw this team into a tailspin and seal the coaching staff's fate.
The most alarming fact about the above is during skrosky's tenure we have only scored 24 or more points in 3 games out of 25.

One many reason we haven scored more is evident. First no Scott Riddle. Second Skrosky's play calls. Watching the game he is more interested in controlling the play clock and extending the drives that getting quick scores. This works if our Defense can stop on ensuing drives. We are not the high flying offense of Petes tenure anymore

We were highflying ones Skrosky was the line coach and we had a different offense of coordinator since Roski has made the calls or any other offense of coordinator making the calls we have not been a hotline offense

Better send A&T a thank you card. Had they not pulled out, there would be a good possability that Elon started the season 0-3 heading into conference play. But they shouldn't, they should be victorious tomorrow, but if not........

Over at the DII message board CIAA fans unanimously have picked Elon to win. One poster even said its time for FSU to pick up there check for there short bus ride over to Elon and start prepping for next week. If we dont show up for this game then we are toast the rest of the season. And by show up I don't mean just win but win in all aspects of the game with a seller showing

Would like to see DT and the offense put in a consistent performance for four quarters.
