FLORIDA INTERNATIONAL + 34 VS. K.STATE

Florida Int. returns 18 starters 9 Off/ 9 Def to a team that ranked 34th in the country in passing @ 244 yards a game. Good coaching plus 34 points seems like a gift to me. Any thoughts?:suomi:

Automax, the 34 points are attractive, but I won't pull the trigger. Up to last season, K-State's defense had finished in the top 5 in the COUNTRY for about 12 straight seasons. Last year's 4-7 finish and defensive letdown were an embarassment to this program that prides itself on tough defense. The Cats will have something to prove on Sept. 3rd.

If you're basing your pick on last season, 34 points is too many for the Cats to cover. If you're basing your pick on program history, remember that this is FIU...K-State usually makes a habit of beating up on non-conference patsies in September to the tune of about 55-6.

Were the game in Florida, I would be all over the home dog. But I won't take that FIU defense on the road.

And pags11 hit the nail on the head: The only "guarantees" in life are that we will all die and we will all pay taxes until we die. GL

Looks like a lot at first glance but I will probably pass and just root for you.

I don't see how you can back a team that had a losing record playing Div IAA teams and the dregs of Div IA. I would take KSU or pass the game.

Not sure K St is good enough, but remember, they LOVE to run up scores and will not rest players in 4th quarter. Careful.
