Semi Final Game #1: William & Mary @ Villanova Game Thread

[Paul B in the Burg]

You might as well throw that first game out the window, now that I think about it, since UNH did beat Villanova earlier in the season.

If Villanova wins then they truly own WM, however and I keep saying this, it is incredibly difficult to beat the same team twice in one season.

UNH was a fluke. Us beating you by 11 was a fluke. This game is going to be close. My bet is within 7 points. However, like I said, if you guys start as slow as you have been, this game could get ugly.

I agree, we are going to be behind the 8 ball with another slow start, Weber St and SIU could not do anything even with us playing like crap in the 1st qtr's of those games.

I'd like to see us get the ball, and then line up and run it at 'Nova, see who came to play.

Yeah, that would be awesome. Just an all out slug fest to counter the first to 100 contest going on on saturday.

Observation #1: The crowd is embarrassing. Honestly....is EVERY fan of a CAA team also a member of cs.com?

[AZGrizFan]

W&M holds Villanova , punts and downs the ball on the 3.

You have to remove Delaware and JMU from that equation. We just happened to suck this year.

[AZGrizFan]

Observation #2: The field is hard as rock, and footing is treacherous. It could be very difficult to get a gage on either of these two teams with this kind of footing.

I just can't fathom a team THIS good with a crowd THAT small...

Observation #3: Announcer said that Talley plans to blitz on 80% of the defensive downs....is that normal?

[AZGrizFan]

W&M get a couple first downs, but end up having to punt.

0-0, 7:30 remaining 1st quarter.

I guess you skipped all the 'nova attendance comments over the years. If Wideright and his buddies can't make it, the 'nova crowd is cut in half.

How many there?

I'm actually relatively surprised that the attendance is as good as it is.

This ESPN crew is actually pretty good too. Seem to be familiar with the CAA and FCS ball.

They haven't really showed the home side yet, but the away side is prob. half full with W&M fans.

They sound good...almost through the 1st quarter and no mention of the heisman yet.
