TheTub should be a sellout now. Just wish it was ALL Hen fans.

A quarterfinal game in 2000 only got 16k people (probably closer to 20k, but underreported and all). I'm not worried about this game selling out either.

Lee-High has got blown away by the 2 CAA teams they played so far.

Any reason to see this one otherwise? Just hope our WR's have hit their quota on drops.

Is your running game not good enough to beat Lehigh if the passing game isn't up to snuff? The way you CAA types have been bragging the last few seasons, you could beat any team short of the B(C)$ with one hand tied behind your back.

Yes. And Va Tech is BCS, btw. Also sodomy.

The running game hs been dominate vs mediocre defenses.. not very good vs the best run 'D's in the CAA.. the passing game has been very productive all year vs all defenses. It's not likely that the passing game will falter vs Lehigh.

Lehigh has no chance in this one... really just playing with house money at this point. I would think the Blue Hens will walk away with it. In fact, they should really be focused on making sure they have a good game plan ready for the UNH game, and just plan to sleep walk through the Lehigh game. We'll do our best to make sure no one gets hurt running over/through us.

Be sure to pick up some tax-free holiday goods while visiting. It'll take some of the pain away.

I'm disappointed 93 - I expected a lot of pics and conversation about how loud the tub is, along with the pros of the pee wall.

More CAA hate. Ho Hum. Nothing better to do when your team is not relevant I guess.

AP could have a big game. Containing #12 will be key to the UD defense.

I see. You're trying to taunt me, so that I might become cross and make a mistake. I will not fall for your trap!

It's good enough to beat anyone except maybe Montana or Liberty. Thank God neither of those two made the field. If they had, I could have easily seen them in the finals.

Who lost to Boise State (WAC - non BCS) who just lost to Nevada (same as Boise). What's the point of the reply again?

Anywho. Will be watching this game next week (if my pc doesn't get pissy and loose the connection) Good luck to both teams.

Ya know, some of you sound just like Gee

CatMom rules!!!!!

Yeah and everyone can play the 6 degrees of separation and be a BCS national champion but that gets old.

I think 93henfan's response was more tongue and cheek...saying oh by the way CAA teams do beat BCS teams.

Catmom...tv for this game has yet to be announced...might have to go the PC route one more week until ESPN's family of networks grabs the Qtrs.

Yup, the BCS got hold of ESPN by the nuts and they stopped televising the playoffs all the way through. I think I didn't see one on TV last year, here, till the semis.
All of our games were broadcast in 2005. Damned elitists.

According to the NCAA website TV/Internet is as follows:

Delaware-Lehigh.....................................NCAA......12pm
UNH-Bethune.........................................unknown....1pm
J State-Wofford......................................ESPN3.....12pm
Bill & Mary-GA Southern.............................NCAA.....130pm
App State-Western Illinois..........................ESPN3......12pm
SFA-'Nova.............................................ESPN3.....330pm
Eastern Washington-SEMO..........................NCAA........4pm
Montana State-NDSU.................................ESPN3.......2pm

No national TV unless someone has plans for game 2 above. As far as local TV I'm sure there will be some stations that pick up coverage. NCAA and ESPN3 are online streaming. I didn't fare too well with the NCAA site so I used http://fcsfootball.yolasite.com today with no problems. I don't know if it streams the 3. Can't wait 'til next Saturday.

We can beat any team including BCS ranked teams and our record proves it. We only beat teams with one hand tied behind our back when playing schools from really weak conferences such as the Big Fluffy Sky. Of course we could beat the PFL with both hands tied behind our back and standing on one leg.

Lehigh might be due for a win, with Delaware already looking to the next round.
