Re: Battle of the Millard Tydings Bridge!
I don't have a problem with billk. He knows how to get under my skin and really annoy me. And over the years, I've come to expect them from him. He never rarely disappoints. And hardly ever repeats his jabs like razor ramon.
I didn't know anything about Delaware until I was at Towson, one of my roomates had a friend in HS on your team.
My hate for you guys is due to you going to the playoffs instead of us in '93 after we beat you.
Our KO coverage sucks. I have no idea why we kept kicking it deep. We lost our DE early and it showed.
Last seconds wins vs Richmond and ODU. We blocked your kick and were in position to score in the last seconds again. Did go our way this time. I'm over it. We beat Maine this week, we have the tie breaker over them. We are still in control of our own destiny.

Thanks for the compliment Andy - Andy knows that it's a friendly thing with Towson, unlike the 'Nova's of the world & to a lesser extent the JMU's.andy7171 wrote:I don't have a problem with billk.

BTW Andy, I'd suggest the AP avatar for this week - 2 reasons: 1- Since he ran all over Towson on Saturday it's fitting, and 2- since 89 still doesn't like that I copied it from him it'll piss him off a little bit more every day seeing it in triplicate now

Lets not kid ourselves here. Your running game did not beat Towson, Towson's kickoff coverage did. Pierce wasn't the only RB to have a nice night.

Re: Battle of the Millard Tydings Bridge!
I think West is the real deal - kid has a ton of talent, great speed, great moves & good size - he can move the pile an extra yard or two consistently.
He'll be made better by the parts around him. Towson's OL looked good from a run blocking standpoint on Saturday night & judging by the stats this season I'm guessing we didn't see anything atypical. Towson's passing game needs work though - probably a combo of having a 1st year QB in there & not having any real good WR threats. To be honest when Enders dropped back I was more worried about him tucking the ball & running versus throwing it.

Yeah he had a couple of nice runs. I think weather played a part in both teams poor passing. You guys only threw it 12 times!bluehenbillk wrote:I think West is the real deal - kid has a ton of talent, great speed, great moves & good size - he can move the pile an extra yard or two consistently.

Our O-line consists of 1 senior and 4 sophomores. Delaware made changes and pretty much shut the run down in the fourth quarter. Something we should have adjusted to at the half, but didn't.

Re: Battle of the Millard Tydings Bridge!
The only negative with West was that he almost always looked to break every run big - he wouldn't take the 3-5 yard run when it was there and sometimes ran himself out of yards. Chalk it up to him being young. But the dude was a beast and he should be the best back in the CAA for most of his career (well, either him or AP, but that's not bad company).

Re: Battle of the Millard Tydings Bridge!
Did you see our QB? In all seriousness watching him makes me physically ill. IF UR & VU were smart they'd do what UMass did & load up to stop our run & make UD beat you with the pass. Between a QB with no pocket presence who makes bad decisions we have some wideouts who excel at drops.andy7171 wrote: I think weather played a part in both teams poor passing.

Thus we sit at 5-4.

Well to be perfectly honest it speaks volumes about ODU's secondary. I saw the JMU game - still not fixed....CAA Flagship wrote:So he WAS unconscious against Old Dominion.bluehenbillk wrote:
