With Saturday?s 33-27 win over Idaho State University, the Hornets raised their record to 2-1 overall. Here is a look at what?s going to be a roller-coaster season for the Hornets:

?The Sept. 29 match up versus Weber State University is one that the Hornets will win by a count of 24-10 as Ryan Leadingham throws for 243 yards and two touchdowns and running back Derard Martin adds 117 yards on the ground. Defensively, the Hornets are paced by a strong performance by Park McAllister who collects eight solo tackles.

? A week later the Hornets will lose against Montana University in a 38-21 loss. The Montana offense churns out 451 yards in this game with halfback Yohance Humphrey scoring on four touchdown runs from 3-, 43-, 26-, and 9-yards out. Humphrey will go on to run for 156 yards on 23 carries. Murphy would later admit that he was motivated by Hornet fans who were chanting “No Hands Murphy” during introductions.

? The Hornets will rebound at Montana State University a week later with a hard-earned 12-9 victory. Defensive Tackle Allen McCoy?s 89-yard fumble return would prove to be the winning points of the game. The Hornets were forced to go for two-point conversations twice after kickers Paul Kerr and Jimmy Sanchez are both unable to kick because of leg cramp injuries.

? The Hornets will rebound nicely against Eastern Washington University with a 24-2 victory. Backup quarterback Ferni Garza would score on touchdown scrambles of 24 and 46 yards to rally a sluggish Hornet offense in the second half. Garrett White will also go over the 100 yard receiving mark for the third-straight game.

? The Hornet offense would take on a new look against University of California, Davis in the hallowed Causeway Classic. Hornet halfbacks are motivated by former Hornet halfback Charles Roberts?s fiery pre-game speech as the trio of Barton, Beau Huiskens and Brett Collins combine to rush for 279 yards against the Aggie Defense in a smash mouth 17-13 victory.

? The Hornets will suffer a 17-3 letdown a week later against California State University, Northridge. The offense will again struggle against an all-out blitzing Northridge defense which forces four turnovers and holds the Hornets to 3-13 on third down conversions.

?The Hornets will get a look into the future in their final game of the season against Northern Arizona University as freshman fullback Kendall Riley goes on to rush for 76 yards and catch four passes out of the backfield and lead the Hornets to a 24-20 victory.

The Hornets will end the season with a postseason bowl birth into the first annual Jamba Juice Bowl game.You heard it here first.
