I'm really not a fan. Especially after last year's game.
It may be time to dust off the look-a-like thread for this game.

At home a way better Eastern team who can force turnovers and play in a shootout if needed. Our defense will be the key 4 or 5 stops/turnovers will give us a great chance to win.

Idaho is strong defensively, but they have given up the two highest scores of the season in the last two weeks. However, one of those was a good Sac State team and the other was Pac-2's Cal (aka the new bitch of the ACC). We need to keep this score low... the good news is Idaho's offense is only a little better than average. Their Soph RB, Woods, will likely see a lot of carries. I don't think he's as good as UC Davis' RB Larisson, but he's good enough. Keep that guy on or around 100 yards, and we're in good shape. If he blows us up on the ground, it's not going to be good. After last week, I'm still sketched out by our ability to stop the run.

Idaho ranks well above Eastern in total offense and defense. Well, actually every stat that matters... PI's could impact this one. It'll be a battle

I'm not sure how much stock I put into mostly non-conference states through only 4 games played. Looking at Massey, Idaho has the 10th overall SoS while Eastern comes in at 3rd. Also not a ton of difference in power rankings (5th versus 10th).
