Re: FCS - Polls

Definitely a fun year…2003. Strange, too. We barely squeaked by UNH, crushed Rhody, edged both Navy and Maine, lost to NE, then barely got by UMass and nova. Then, come playoff time, we blew the doors off the best I-AA had to offer. That team was battled hardened by the CAA and then gelled at the r...

It's there, but out of order.
Look between 2012 and 2013.

Re: Next opponent: Campbell

I guess I'm too young to be aware of the history. All I know is we have been beaten regularly since 2006 and that's all that matters. I didn't look at the coaches or their overall success just the Battle of the Blue. I'm not interested in a seminar just a win this season. We had a 4 game lead in th...

Hopefully you are providing those examples with tongue in cheek.
No. UMass and UConn were average CAA teams at best back in the day. Of course, the conference on the whole was a lot better then.

Re: Delaware to Conference USA?

I did not think the EADA reports distinguished between sports either, but were a simple accounting of entire athletics budgets. I could be wrong. It's true that there is an indirect benefit to enrollment due to increased exposure. But that is difficult to measure. I think the second link I sent you ...

Re: Scouting the CAA

Maine was winning 28-14 for a long time in that game. Don't know what happened, but the wheels fell off in the 4th.
The Blackbears find more creative ways to lose football games than any team I've ever seen.

Re: Game Thread: Elon

We need to beat Nova for me to think we actually have turned a corner. Agree, sir. Anything less than a butt-kicking this week AND win vs. 'Nova will leave me with the impression that UD was the benefactor of a weak schedule and didn't really make progress in '23. It's all on the line the next two ...

I went to the Penn State game this year. It was not like that at all. It was enjoyable.

Re: Game Thread: Elon

WE only scheduled 3 of the 11 games. And it appears what WE scheduled was a top 20 FBS opponent, a FCS opponent likely heading to the playoffs and one FCS opponent that was in last year’s playoffs. Right, so St. Francis and Duquesne are actually peer institutions. If we leave the CAA, maybe instead...

Agree. I think Albany is the best team in the CAA this year, and they are just getting overlooked by the pollsters.

I hope Chrissi is reading this. I don't go to games anymore either. 1. The ann oun cer is REALLY an no yi ng ! 2. The piped in music is loud enough to be a health concern. 3.
