and other names I thought we'd see like Walton, Danneker, and of course Daxon. Not really concerned but just more surprised to not see those names on there.

could it be injuries or short term team suspensions?
Usually depth is set following fall camp.

Dline is a bit of a surprise with no Amos or Daxon. I agree with the above poster about the importance of that position group this year. I worry a bit about our run D with new OLBs as well.

Any insight into the kicking game? Our kicker has some size, hoping to that means range as well. Our punter is the freshman from Australia

I was surprised most by Danneker and Amos. Any mention anywhere of injuries ?

I couldn’t find a depth chart, but if you look at some of the vids on the Facebook page you’ll see players like Walton and Daxon.

Not saying either guy is the starter but these balls look pretty crisp working with the QB whisperer.

And that Shane Hooks red zone connection is going to be a show for the ages. Cant wait to see who is slinging it to him!

Hmm ... rumors on BA proved to be wrong. I’m shocked! ;-)

Also looks like they moved Tariq Drake to SS.

Not sure if it's a good or bad thing to see some true freshman (Habinowski, McNair, Arter) on the two deep on the OL. I know Frank mentioned it several times that OL depth will potentially be an issue. Time will tell.

I just noticed that we are now 2.5 pt favorites.
Can anyone explain how the spread went from CMU -1.5 to CMU -1.0 to Ohio -2.5?

My guess is that the smart money is becoming confident Moore is not going to play.

You may need to have a pay TV subscription (e.g., cable, satellite) or internet service through a participating provider in order to get ESPN, ESPN2 or ESPNU games through ESPN+. They don't have our game on the ESPN+ schedule at the moment, but sometimes games show up on the schedule at the last minute.

I did notice that tonight's game is available in Spanish on ESPN3.

All games that are actual TV games only are available if you subscribe to the TV channel it is on. There's a thread about doing that to watch the game here: https://www.bobcatattack.com/messageboard/topic.asp?FromP...

Moore has still not been cleared. I'm sorry but that's flat out BS! The NCAA denied his appeal back in the spring and upheld the suspension for October 7, 2020 and all CMU has been waiting on is the final report. Anyway, Ohio is now up to a 3-point favorite.

He’s still listed on the roster. Arkley made no mention of him at all when discussing the dline which makes me think there may still be something up with the NCAA but that is pure speculation. Dline seems like our biggest question right now.

Side note: Guessing many already might have saw this on Twitter but Arkley started his own website! Look forward to supporting him

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Looks like we have a very generous secondary. Not challenging receivers at all. Quite a lot of cushion.
