According to the Akron Beacon Journal, Cribbs is out for the Central Florida game and the upcoming Akron game. This will really hurt Kent, huge drop-off in talent at the position, although Cribbs has had a less than stellar this year he is still a weapon. I look for CFU to really lay the wood on Kent, this game could get ugly.

MC, this is another game that is worthless to play both teams going no where fast, why should CFU be motivated to blow out Kent? Alot of better games out there that do not involve two dog teams playing for nothing.

Why do teams have to be playing for anything for it to be a good bet?? Don't be naive; players play for themselves as much as they do for teams.

gridiron, you make it real hard not to comment on your idiocy, but can't help it, your an idiot!

MC and valuist are exactly right, this is the kind of game you look for as a blowout.

good info MC:toast:

His backup is very good. If any of you watched the OSU-Kent St game back in September...you`ll know what Iam talking about

I agree in the OSU game Daryl Polk did have a nice outing for the brief time he played, but for the year he has struggled. For the year 13% of his passes attempted have been picked and he ahs struggled rushing the ball 9 attempts and 7 yards rushing. He will be making a homecoming to the his homestate of Florida (Deerfield) but I just cant see him hurting the Black Knights defense. kent's defense has been banged up nearly all year and the last few games the D has been brutal. When Polk was recruited by pee's he was considered a steal, but has not been able to dislodge Cribb's for much PT. FWIW...Carib has pulled this game from their rotation, I played it at 21 when it first came out.

Pee's Press Conf (IMO sounds like Pee's is worried the team has quit on him)

On CFU

On Playing UCF


?They?re playing pretty good. They?ve played a really unbelievable schedule. They could easily be 7-2, they could be up at the top. I think Central Florida is still a really good football team, they?ve just lost some close games and played some really tough teams.?

?They throw more than they run, but I think they?ll do whatever they need to do to win. They like to throw the ball a lot, but they run the ball effectively too, they?ve got good running backs.?

?They?ve got some talent right now, they?re huge up front. They look like a Big Ten offensive line.

On the season

?I?m excited to get back to playing cause I?m embarrassed. I?m as embarrassed as I?ve ever been in 30 years of coaching. The only way I?ll feel better is if we go out and perform better.?

?We haven?t lost this team, they haven?t lost us. It?s not that. I?ve never been beaten this bad. I had one year at Findlay I gave up 61 points the entire season. I?ve never given up 63 points for any reason.?

?When you look at the stats, our total offense compared to where we were last year is within five yards. Our total defense through 10 games, is actually a yard better than last year. The difference is last year through 10 games we had four interceptions, 11 touchdowns. This year we have 20 interceptions, five touchdowns, and 18 fumbles (five lost).?

?The injuries this year have probably contributed to us being 3 and 7. But the injuries have not contributed to a 63-point shellacking.?

?It?s not so much about Central Florida as it is about us. We have got to go out in the next two weeks and get better. You never know when it?s going to spark.?

Umm, I beg to differ coach. I know for a FACT that there are serious problems going on there and players are looking to transfer out.
