Re: FCS Championship - JMU vs YSU

wonder how many ndsu fans still make the trip. I do not think the ticket will be a very hot item on stub hub.

Re: #1 NDSU vs #4 James Madison Friday Night Semi-Final

I don't need to tell you that both of these teams had impressive victories last week. NDSU held SDSU under 200 yards, which makes one think—on the surface—that the Bison defense is totally impregnable. Before looking too far into that smothering, however, keep in mind the Jackrabbits also had less ...

Re: #1 NDSU vs #4 James Madison Friday Night Semi-Final

I'm hoping the Dukes are the team to finally end the streak. They looked great on both sides of the ball and on special teams this weekend. It' s going to take a similar performance to dethrone those Bizen. I'm kind of hoping it's JMU but remember that Jacksonville State was coming off beating Sam ...

Re: Welcome To Delaware, Coach Rocco

I got to say congrats to UD. May be a bitter rival of JMU, but UD being annually in the top 2-3 CAA teams, playoffs every year, being a national power again would be good for the CAA... While I hate the dirtbags from harrisonburg, I am for this one week a JMU fan. Enough of the puke ugly green and ...

Re: rumor has it......Rocco to Delaware....Talk amongst yourselves....

It doesn't excite me, but neither do any of the other names being bandled about. (CCU's coach, Chatty's coach, Mickey Matthews, etc). What has Rocco ever done except be pretty good? I want to be great. Championships are all that matters, bottom line. Well you are not going to find a championsip coa...

rumor has it......Rocco to Delaware....Talk amongst yourselves....

Kevin Tresolini first put it out on MOnday, and now seems to have more steam. If true, good move, bad move for UD? For Rocco? Personally I think it is a good move for both. UD has more upside than UR in the long run, Rocco brings a proven record in FCS and particularly in the CAA........and Rocco wi...

Re: I-AA Game of the Week - Round of 16

I'm going with Richmond @ North Dakota because I really don't know what to expect from that game, although Villanova at South Dakota State is also a tough call for me. Tough call, indeed.

Re: Playoff selection show ESPNU 11 AM ECB

Bill Right on about Keeler. There is no good reason the selection committee can give as to why they are meeting in the semis instead of the finals. THis is why the expanded playoffs are a joke. they had the 1-AA playoffs in the sweet spot at 16 teams seeded from top to bottom. Even with 16 teams, t...

Re: Playoff selection show ESPNU 11 AM ECB

I can see Richmond going down with all of their injuries. Lehigh can beat a paper tiger UNH. Villanova can won on the road at SDSU. Keeler will have his team frothing at the mouth & always plays up in the postseason - the semi with them in Fargo is the defacto NC IMO. Bill Right on about Keeler...

Re: FIRE DAVE BROCK!!!!

We're sitting in perhaps the worse four years of football in all of UD history, with this year and last year being maybe the worst two year period ever. If you throw KC's last two years into the mix it's up to the worst 6 year period of all time. But at least KC had that NC appearance in the year j...

Maybe the worst thing that could happen to UD is that they go 7-4, make the playoffs, win an opener round game vs the Patriot or NEC winner, then get thumped in the round of 16 to finish 8-5, and UD retains Brock. So true! I feel bad about it, but I fear that they could squeek by in some games and ...
