Georgia Southern @ Delaware Official Semifinal Game Thread

Joe Flacco is a punk.

Why does Tracy Ham spell the National Football League, C-F-L?

[Thumper 76]

Man, after the last week here I don't know what team wouldn't be 8th or 9th place in the CAA. Why does the rest of the FCS world even try?

In all fairness...do you remember what happened to you 9/11/10?

Oh yea don't worry I haven't forgotten, but there are other teams around that were better than us as well, 5 of them to be exact

Actually, he spells it H-O-F.
To be precise, that's the College Football Hall of Fame and The Canadian Football of Fame. Flacco won't get into any Hall of Fame. Actually, he can, if he pays an admission fee.

I have less trepidation about this game than last week's playoff game against New Hampshire. I think we'll see the students rushing the North End zone after this game to climb all over the uprights like they did in 2003 after beating Wooford in the semi-final game in the TUB

Nova is a given.

See all you Nova Nancies in Frisco for the grudge re-match

The Eagles have landed! Just got a call from one of my GSU friends who's here for the game. We'll get together in Newark tonight for a pop or two.

I guess he'll just have to rely on his NFL contract to console him. I don't know too many U.S. children that dream of being in the Canadian Football HOF. The college HOF is nice, but only if you have an NFL career to foillow it up with.

Ham may have been the better college player (which is what you should focus on since he played for your school) and Flacco may end up being the better Pro (which means little to me since I'm more focused on UD than I am it's ex-players.)

If you are going to the game tomorrow, give yourself extra time. The "Beast of the East" wrestling tourney is taking place at the Bob Carpenter Center (right next to the football stadium). There are over 100 high school teams attending. Parking and traffic could be a nightmare.

I will be at the wrestling tourney watching my son wrestle

They've announced the plan. All wresting fans will have to park in the Chrysler lots (free) and be shuttled in. All reserved lots will be $10 for those of us with parking permits and $20 for GA.

I am aware of that. You will still have knucklehead wrestling families trying to park in the football lots and lots of extra traffic. The Carpenter center will be close to sold out.

Uh, oh, plans went awry. GSU friend decided to go to bed early.

Guess I'll go watch Nova.

Georgia Southern 17-24 Delaware

Crap. Kiss of death.

I did pick UD to win last week. And the week before.

And I'm 11-5 in the playoffs, so your team's got a healthy 69% chance of winning.

QB, lines, yada yada yada. You forgot the most important category: offensive system. The Triple Option would bend over Chuck Norris.

Georgia Southern wins this game before it starts. They have The Triple Option.

[mainejeff]

Go Georgia Southern!!!

An Eagles win would be an appropriate end to the House that Tom Yeager Built.

Good luck to Villanova in the Big East and UMass in the MAC.

NEC.......here we come!

[DirtyDukes]

I'm struggling with this one... I'm CAA through and through but I grew up in Savannah rooting for GSU.

[Bronco]

3 and out and now hot knife and butter defense

[DirtyDukes]

Also, lowsy attendance again by UD fans. Shameful.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Watch that pitch!

GSU making this look easy.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Also, lowsy attendance again by UD fans. Shameful.

I see that too. UD used to be one of the best fanbases, what happened?

[Skjellyfetti]

Delaware looks totally lost defending the triple option. Much like William and Mary did...

[DuckDuckGriz]

I think he was down.

GSU looks REALLY sloppy on some of these pitches.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Nevermind not down - I don't know what i was seeing.

[DuckDuckGriz]

Nice CATCH by White.

[Bronco]

Good run out of the end zone by big # 93


It's a nice looking stadium and 35 degrees

Great football weather...no excuse

I hear lots of GSU fans

[DuckDuckGriz]

Is it just me or does instant replay become totally irrelevant in FCS games
