What'd you expect? Carrot Top?


Me to pick against my team?
Me to pick UMass?

Richmond @ Maine - I'll be rooting for Maine though.
Hofstra @ Rhode Island - URI=bad
Villanova @ James Madison = toss-up but I'm going with Nova in a high scoring affair.
Delaware @ Towson = blowout. Keeler looking for some repsect.
New Hampshire @ Massachusetts - the Delaware game was a fluke. UMass by 2 TD's.

Richmond @ Maine - Richmond struggles against YET another mediocre opponent, but wins by 7; In doing so, the Spiders solidify their hold on the #1 spot in the land, because everyone knows Maine would go undefeated in every other conference in America.

Hofstra @ Rhode Island - Hofstra eeks out a win against a superior opponent, wins by 4; This immediately puts Hofstra into the national title game discussion.

Villanova @ James Madison - JMU continues it's schitzophrenic season by defeating Villanover @ home by 3, giving Dukes fans everywhere false hope. Really, the only reason I picked JMU here is because I can't possibly imagine a Saturday where EVERY home team loses.

Delaware @ Towson - Delaware continues its resurgence, beating Division II Towson by 30; Towson immediately secedes from the CAA and joins the Big South.

New Hampshire @ Massachusetts - New Hampshire puts the final nail in UMass's coffin, winning by 17; Col Hogan commits Hari Kari.

I said it on AGS, all home 'dogs, so it could get interesting in the CAA this week.

Yeah, well I don't read that POS site, so start sayin' that shit over here if you want anyone of consequence to actually READ it.

Richmond @ Maine
Hofstra @ Rhode Island
Villanova @ James Madison
Delaware @ Towson
New Hampshire @ Massachusetts

[dbackjon]

Richmond @ Maine - but both teams would lose to Idaho State
Hofstra @ Rhode Island - both teams would lose to Northern Colorado
Villanova @ James Madison - winner gets to play Indiana State in play-in game for field of 128
Delaware @ Towson - No wonder andy when out of the country
New Hampshire @ Massachusetts - UNHWildcats bad week gets worse.
Bye @ William & Mary - Big Sky Bye takes Bill and Bitch to the woodshed
Off @ Northeastern - Eh, who cares

[D1B]

None of you girls played the game, so you don't what your talkin bout. Trust me.

Maine @ UR UR by 2-3 TDs. This is a tough trip for UR. If it was at UR I would say the Spiders by 4-5 TDs. The last time Maine hosted a #1 was Sept 27, 08' when they hosted JMU. Attendance was listed at 3188, when in reality in a rainfest it was probably half that. Accuweather calling for high of 52, partially cloudy in Orono on Sat, so maybe there will be 3k fans there...

Hofstra @ URI: HU by 3-4 TDs, assuming they don't turn the ball over 7 times...

Villanova @ JMU: JMU by a TD or less in a possible rainfest. No analysis here- I'll do that on the Nova @ JMU thread.

Accuweather says rainfest:

Weather.com doesn't:

UD @ Towson: UD by 2-3 TDs. UD with a slight letdown after the big UMass win. This is Towson's homecoming game, but with Newark less than an hr drive from Towson, I imagine the Hens will have at least as many fans as Towson. This will be more of a neutral field game. The possible rainfest will likely slow down UD's #2 in the CAA passing attack. On the other hand, rain doesn't hurt Towson's passing attack, as there isn't much of one (11th in CAA). Neither team has much of a running game (Towson 10th, UD 11th in the CAA) but UD has a far better rush defense.

UNH @ UMass: UNH by a TD or less

Some interesting contrasts in CAA stats:
-UMass is #1 in total offense, #2 in scoring. UNH is #1 in total defense.
-UMass is #1 in passing offense. UNH is #1 in passing defense.
-UMass is 5th in rushing offense. UNH is 5th in rushing defense.
-UNH is 5th in total offense, UMass is 5th in total defense.

UNH is #1 in scoring offense, which tells me they're either getting a lot of scores or scores set up by defense and special teams.

Given what happened last weekend have to go with UNH here. Since its a rivalry and is in Amherst, think it will be close though.
