but UM shuts them down the second half. Not saying that it would be, but over the last couple of years it seems some of these perceived lower teams have held their own against UM for the first half. I for one expect FAU to hit some big plays on us, because we will be hit with the unexpected. Would you be satisfied with a victory or would you be ****ed? I believe if FAU keeps it close for any length of time, the boards will explode. However, the expectations this season are so high right now, that I believe any setback UM faces this season could result in all time high meltdowns. After listening to WQAM last night and yet again UF/FSU callers on the flag station, and listening to yet another non-UM fan as a WQAM radio broadcaster provide his objective, yet pessimistic view of UM's current state...we really need to beat the **** out of the Tally Noles and the Gainesville Gators.

I think we all can take a 14 to 14 at the half if we gave up those 14 points off turnovers.

For that score to be possible it would mean our defense was getting beat on long substained drives. I think we are more concerned with the defense.
 
You didn't mention a final score in your scenerio. I suppose if it's 51-14 and we ended up scoring on every possession of the second half and the defense was playing lights out, would we be concerned? Who knows? It's a process, Joe.......

14-14 at the half = failure
 
I only care about 3 things:

1. No injuries

2. Limited turnovers and penalties

3. Playing "up" despite the opponent
 
If it's 14-14 or any other close score at the half, and then we pull out a big margin of victory at the end, I wouldn't be worried at all. Remember, this is the first game of the season. The first half of the first game of the season one could expect a bit of shakiness. These kids are hyped up and haven't hit an real opponent in a long time. What would be more telling is if they then pull it all together and dominate the rest of the game.

If its 14 14 at the half that means we got our sanctions , and they suspended the entire Offense for the first half
 
If it's 14-14 at the half, Nights/Newkirk will already have 5000 posts about firing the DC. Frikking guy is Johnny one note.

Another mopey scenario. Some of you cats are shell-shocked or just stuck on perma-mope. How about just be excited that the season is upon us and enjoy the **** out of what seems like a season that disappears in 38 minutes. Relish it. Quit dreaming up mopey **** to wring your hands over.
 
I remember going to these games and being ****ed when teams like FAU crossed the 50 yard line in the first half.
