Re: TOP 10 STADIUM EXPANSIONS

You guys love to rip on YSU for the gigantic home-team side and the small visitor's team side, but my God look at JMU's. As sweet as it looks, they should work a bit more on that one side if they are going to pimp out the others. Um, you realize that "small" side is the same size it curre...

Re: CAA geography: a good thing

One thing I like about the CAA is that many of the southern schools are close enough that the number of traveling fans is growing. If the other schools admit it or not they love playing JMU at home b/c JMU draws their own fans and JMU brings 4,000 (anyone) to 8,000 (UR) tailgaters. UR last year, at...

Re: Mickey Still Won't Pick a QB

Maybe he is just afraid of losing the starting QB to injury like what happened last year with Landers? By getting as much experience for both quarterbacks as possible, if the starter (whenever/whoever that may be) goes down with an injury the back up quarterback will be able to step up with some le...

Re: Mickey Still Won't Pick a QB

So dumb. I like Mickey and I think he's a good coach, but this is a mistake. I'm afraid it will come back to bite us. Anybody that watched the Liberty game saw that we moved more effectively with Dudzik. No, MM will give Thorpe some reps at Hofstra. So maybe JMU wins by one less TD thn they otherwi...

URI @ UConn by 4-5 TDs. UConn beat Ohio on the road 23-16, lost to ranked UNC at home 12-10, and last weak won at Baylor 30-22. My guess is UConn comes out flat against a fired up Ram team looking for the upset, and let the Rams stick around longer than they should before pulling away in the 2nd hal...

So I'll go with Wofford over Wisconsin, which really wouldn't be an upset either.
That would be a HUGE upset. I just looked up the line. Betus has Wofford +20.5 right now. 5dimes has them +20.

Re: CAA 4 - FBS 4

The other big consideration where the East Coasters definitely have an advantage is geography. I would MUCH rather UD play games that are close to UD. It would appear more and more teams agree.

UD will likely be very focused after losing the UR heartbreaker, and will win comfortably. YSU @ Northeastern. YSU by 1-2 TDs. YSU is mid pack MVFC. They got pummeled a...
