I never thought the Hens were that good. It sucks that they fell apart like they did, but I'm not upset because 7-5 is about right. In fact, 7-5 might be overachieving. The Towson game was a gift and I'm not sure the Hens are better than JMU.

No excuse for tonight though. :ohno:

Yup, just who we thought we were. Luckily, none of us thought UD was any good and they delivered. It's actually good to see something be confirmed like this. Oh, I'm going out on a limb and say a 6-5 nova team doesn't get in.

I'll still root, but my physical commitment is only going to be a couple of games via the cut-rate tickets on GroupOn. I've tried my best to support a dying brand, but it's clear by recent hires that our admin wants to be average rather than exceptional. I'm also tired of subsidizing sports I don't care about with my football dollars. The UDBOT can go fuck themselves. They want some nonchalant fanbase with a bullshit Richmond/Villanova size crowd they can have it. It was a great several decades. I can't put all my heart behind leadership that wants to deemphasize football.

Oh man, this is good. After coming back from the best football game I have ever seen, it's just pure comedy to read these. Don't count your blue hens before they hatch!!

I know you guys are all talking about how the UD football program is not performing the way they should, but I'm sure you guys will be back for the next annual beatdown!

Just in case you guys forgot what it looks like.

Weren't you guys going to beat a completely overrated UD team by 20-30?

So which playoff team are you going to root for with both UD and Nova out of it? I think I'll go with Towson.

Delaware is a bad team and Villanova beat them by one point at home after a complete choke. I'm not sure that makes Villanova a good team. In fact, it doesn't. Villanova finished the season 6-5. That's not good at all.

Any Delaware or Villanova fan who is happy with his team's record this year is a very strange person.

The only reason they have a winning record is they only played 11 games :coffee:

Any Nova fan that watched that game and isn't thrilled doesn't have a pulse. Tough loss hen fan. You guys never stop with the insults. Have fun! I know my beer tastes pretty good right now!!

How do you figure? nova was what, #8 and UD #39 by the computers. Shouldn't have been close.
