Here is the Elon Football 2010 Schedule. It was posted in the athletics weight room when I was working out the other day. The football team came in to work out right after me, and I talked to a few of the players and they seem pretty confident heading into next season.

9/4 @ Duke
9/11 Home vs. Shaw University
9/18 @ Richmond
9/25 Home vs. Samford
10/2 @ Georgia Southern
10/9 @ Appalachian State
10/16 BYE WEEK
10/23 Home vs. Wofford
10/30 @ Chattnooga
11/6 @ Citadel
11/13 Home vs. Furman
11/20 Home vs. Western Carolina

I see at least 8-3 with 7 D-1 wins. (Shaw is D2 i think) Duke, Richmond and App State should be the 3 toughest games

At Chattanooga and at The Citadel are the biggest chances for surprises. Chattanooga's improvement wasn't a fluke. and The Citadel is never to be taken lightly in the friendly confines of Johnson Hagood.

I agree. If the team doesn't show up ready to play, it might end badly for the Phoenix.

You can still laugh like a motherfucker. I saw the schedule, and I laughed, then I tried to figure out who the hell that school was.

Good schedule - tough OOC games in Duke and Richmond, but both winnable.

Shaw is an HBCU in Raleigh, NC and competes in the CIAA. They finished 8-2/5-2 in the West division last year.

If you're going to play a DII game, at least its an in-state team.

I can't wait for it. I'm hoping it won't snow like it did 2 years ago, when we last went to Boone. 10/9 seems a little early for snow.

On Sept. 18th, 2010 Elon will be the FIRST team to play Richmond at UR's NEW STADIUM (Robins Stadium)....located on the beautiful University of Richmond campus! :thumb: I was a Freshman (1972-73) at UR when The Robins Center opened and our first game was against the University of Maryland. We got stomped something like 82-50 :( :( Hopefully the Spiders will open their new football stadium with a WIN with the USC transfer hurling several TD passes in the game!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Shaw is in the CIAA. At least it's not a sh!tty D.II team.
Shaw makes the playoffs fairly often if I am remembering correctly.

I'm seeing 7-1 in the SoCon, with a close game at App. We should beat Shaw, then Richmond and Duke are gunna be tough, but winnable. What are you seeing?

Still, who the heck is Shaw. Lembo should be embarrassed about scheduling such a school. It's a rip off for the fans. Probably be better to have an intra-squad scrimmage. :ohno:
