Re: Montana St. @ Sam Houston - Game Thread
Montana State is terrible. Coaching, talent, everything. They're just not very good. I guess that conference is not as good as everyone says because this team is embarassing.

Re: Montana St. @ Sam Houston - Game Thread
The MSU qb is terrible. How did this team get so highly rated? They are really not very good.

Re: Quarterfinal Lines
Too late to pick the Montana game but with the other three I'd take Montana State, Maine, and Lehigh. I think Montana State is more likely than not to beat Sam Houston State straight up and that's a pretty big line. If I had to bet straight up I'd bet Georgia Southern will win the game against Main...

Re: Lehigh WR goes racial on Twitter - gets SUSPENDED
Lehigh should have had their attorneys immediately stop this action when the decision to suspend Spadola first came down. The NCAA wants Lehigh out of the tournament because they are a non-scholarship team that might show up the scholarship teams. Lehigh is the top ranked team academically of all t...

Re: Lehigh WR goes racial on Twitter - gets SUSPENDED
The five NDSU players were talking about random things with their teammates, which is completely different than talking about the team you are playing against before the game. Using the word is not what got Spadola suspended, it was the way in which he used it.. directly describing the team he was ...

Re: Lehigh WR goes racial on Twitter - gets SUSPENDED
I'm only asking for equitable treatment. Five NDSU players use the EXACT same word and get nothing. How is that right? No one's dragging anyone through the mud. Why can one player say it and another can't? The five NDSU players MUST be suspended in order to be fair and equitable in the distribution...

Re: Lehigh WR goes racial on Twitter - gets SUSPENDED
And just to add... I don't think any players should be suspended. But if you suspend one, you have to suspend them all. There is absolutely no argument otherwise other than one race is allowed to and one isn't. You ant to go there?

Re: Lehigh WR goes racial on Twitter - gets SUSPENDED
Let me start this by saying what Spandola did was wrong. But... As I understand it, he reposted someone else's words and it was just those words that were found to be offensive. Not any direct actions on his part. So, using those words was the offense and should carry suspension for ANY FCS player w...

Re: Lehigh @ NDSU
So, I take it that you are admitting that you know absolutely nothing about Lehigh WR Drwal - considered almost equal to Spadola in many circles. Well we're about to find out how good Drwal is now aren't we? Sucks about Spadola :ohno: Yup. That hurts. Just having him on the field changes defensive ...

Re: Lehigh @ NDSU
I do think Lehigh has a great team but some of their fans seem to have zero respect for NDSU's defense. I really like Mvemjsunpx's prediction and breakdown. I'm not saying I have no respect for their defense. I have the utmost respect for any defense that can hold opponents to less than 20 points a...

Re: Lehigh @ NDSU
Lastly, of the two MVC teams to put up any points on NDSU (21 each) were the two worst teams in the conference and whom with only four combined wins ironically, both depend more on the pass than the run albeit anemic in both areas. Bottom line is that I don't think NDSU has seen an offense anything...

Re: Lehigh @ NDSU
Just don't see these 40 points you think Lehigh will be spotted. Lehigh gets in the Redzone on average about 5 times per game and score TD's 50% and get points 70%. Lets say best case is 3 TD and a FG for 24 points. Again 36 of the 51 total Lehigh TD's have come in the Redzone so that is around 70%...

Re: Lehigh @ NDSU
An astute reply regarding Lehigh special teams... admittedly not very good. That's been sort of a trend even back to the days I played there. Not sure why but I hope it doesn't come into play too much because it could be a game breaker. I still don't think NDSU can score enough points with a control...

Re: Lehigh @ NDSU
Well... maybe if Delaware had won their conference against the winner of said conference who we beat at their own house you'd be less bitter. We beat 11 teams and the best team in your conference. Get over it. Patriot league is not as easy as everyone makes it out to be. We don't get to play SFA or ...

Spadola is playing. He made a public apology on Twitter and to staff and team and I've heard of no further action.

Hmmm... As much as I hate to admit it (and i really do hate the idea) the_fan makes a pretty significant point here and it's not just a convenient stat or far out interpolation. It's actually quite impressive. I don't think it matters how good or bad the running game of the opponent really is but th...

Re: #22 Stony Brook at #1 Sam Houston State Gamethread
Frankly I do not understand the hate for Sam being ranked number one. They never lost a game all year, and even with the weak schedule and conference all that they been focused on is one game at a time. It's not hate. It's just experience with I-AA/FCS and paying attention to how conferences do aga...

Re: Lehigh @ Towson Game Thread
I've now seen two very disparaging remarks about Spadola. I really don't think you know what you're talking about. He may not be the best in FCS right but he's damn good... and only a junior. "Outright terrible"? That's an idiot talking. The guy is a prototypical pro WR. He's 6'3'' 215 and...

Re: Lehigh @ Towson Game Thread
I think one key matchup that's only been mentioned generically in the form of "passing game" is detail on how Towson defends Spadola, Drwal and not one but two sure handed tight ends? As I've said before I think the Towson DC has probably watched more film than Siskel and Ebert this week a...
