Thoughts on Wagner/Robert Morris....

[Ruler]

A great win Saturday! I have to be honest Wagner scared me to death. Coming off a loss to CCSU, a game they thought they should have won with a swagger as Fordie likes to point out! Then the poor conditions on Sat made me even more frightened ...fumblerooski...fumbleliah!!!! WELL DONE DANES!!! Wagner is a very good team. I think they are the second best team in the NEC, I REALLY BELIEVE THAT! They are a year away and another year of experience for their qb and they will be a force not to mention that rb. That rb could play for us no doubt!!!! Defense as alway vey good. Trever Anderson should start the rest of the way...no offense to current starters. This kid is gonna be a bigger Colin Disch!

 

The gameplan against RM will probably be the same as it was against Wagner. 8 in the box and make their qb beat you with the pass. I know they are also going to try and exploit our secondary with short passes the way Wagner did. Unfortunatly they will complete some of these. Like last week out O-line which is playing well will be tested and there is a pride factor at RM. Either way I think the big uglies upfront also beat RM into submission by the second half. I like Albany in this but i believe it will be like Wagner. Closer then it should be.

 

BTW I watched CCSU/Monmouth on TV and I must say I am not that impressed with either team especially on defense. Monmouth is small and slow on D but they have a great rb and reciever and the qb if given time will beat our secondary. I think we beat them with ball control O and it will be on our D to stop them through the air.

 

CCSU is small and one dimensional and I think we can move the ball on their D at will.

Spot on my friend. I was also not impressed with either CCSU or Monmouth.

 

I will be disappointed if we don't win out and by at least 2 scores in each game.

Another quote from Ford in today's Gazette: "I told the kids Saturday after the game that the view is so much better at the front of the bus. Now we are in control of our own destiny."

Not sure if it was said yet here or not, but this weeks game is televised on TW3 and nationally on Fox College Sports (FCS) Atlantic.

 

Most cable companies offer the FCS channels on the "Sports Tier".

Is anyone going? I was kicking the idea around because I enjoyed the outing against Sacred Heart.

Can't go, I have to be in Chicago for business.

I hope so. I'll be there. Last home game of the season, I can't miss that.
