Nice local coverage! This author is a complete tool. Feel free to leave a nice comment. :roll:

Towson talking like Tigers
New coach, players show new attitude as season begins

Towson hits the road Saturday with a new coach, a freshman quarterback, a past strewn with losses and a defense that last year ranked among the worst in college football. And that's the good news.

First up is Northwestern - yes, that Northwestern - a bowl-savvy, lip-smacking Big Ten team whose scrubs might give Towson fits.

Is this how Rob Ambrose pictured his debut as Towson's head coach?

"Sure, why not?" Ambrose said of the mismatch-to-be. "I was never big on putting one toe in the pool. If you want to learn to swim, jump in the deep end."

Most expect Towson to belly-flop. Last year, the Tigers (3-9) played their first major college team ever and were thrashed by Navy, 41-13. And Northwestern? The Wildcats went 9-4 before losing in overtime to Missouri, 30-23, in the Alamo Bowl.

BTW, I have no problem saying Towson is going to get beaten this Saturday. But an article on the Terps would never dare take on a condescending tone as he did in the Sun.
