Loeffler did his presser today for the Fordham game. Most of it was the usual stuff--Fordham, who received five points in the FCS poll, might be the greatest FCS team in history. In practice, we are working on consistency.
There was good news and bad news.
The bad news is we had an injury-plagued camp. He said we have 2-3 guys who might be out for the year, and will reveal them after the Fordham game. There appeared to be other injuries as well. This is not good news, obviously. He seems to be looking forward to the bye after Penn State to have some people get healthy.
The good news is that the offensive line has taken GIANT steps. That would be very important.
Oh, and as for the injuries, we will find out at about 4 pm on Thursday who is not available. The MAC is starting an injury report of sorts, which will be due 3 hours before game time and posted on the web. The Big 10 is doing the same thing.
Fordham did beat Buffalo last year. Let's hope our guys work hard and don't fall asleep at the wheel on Thursday!
ReplyDeleteThat's good to hear about the offensive line. (I missed that part.) He did keep saying he thinks we can run the ball, which is nice. Whether or not we get to Detroit at the end of the season may come down to that. MIami and Ohio pushed us around last season. That needs to stop.
