So it's do or die now for Coach Ford and the boys.

That win over Bryant gets my attention after seeing Bryant. Monmouth is still alive for the conference championship also. They are 0-4 at home and 5-0 on the road? Granted they've had some tough home games but still an odd stat.

Especially winning at Bryant.

 

Bryant is really tough at home. They've only lost 5 home games since 2008.

I also don't see Duquensne losing again this season. Especially considering that Sinclair is out for RMU for the season.

 

Must win for us this weekend.

I will again quote coach Herb Brooks when the US defeated the Russians in 1980 and had to play the gold medal game against Sweden 2 days later. He gathered his team around him in the locker room and only said these 15 words then walked out.

 

This will ring true for our Sr. players.

 

"Lose this game and you will regret it for the rest of your Fu*king lives"

 

For the record, Monmouth struggled with St. Francis.

They also lost to RMU, but then again they beat Villanova, which even in a down year for Nova is still a solid win for an NEC program (Nova did just beat up on UMass).

 

They're very inconsistent.

 

Ruler - you venturing to Jersey saturday?

[Ruler]

Yes, I will absolutly be there. I am going with 3 or 4 former Albany guys from my era.

 

How about you? If so swing by our group and have a cocktail.

What time you getting there? I've got a few guys in tow as well.

The attitude must be not only to punch monmouth & sacred heart in the mouth, it's to knock their teeth out.

And Ruler, that quote is spoton, as most of these guys will never play football again, once their UA careers are over.

I Like it. I hope these players are reading this board. Last week was inexcusable, its not like Bryant is a far better team. Albany sh#t the bed last week.

 

This week there cant be any doubt. They lose this then it wont matter if they finish 6-5 or 7-4. The key is 8-3.

 

Trust me that first round game in the NCAA's (should we not choke) will be far better than Bryant!

Sounds good. I'm picking my crew up at Secuacus Junction at 9am so we should be in the lot by 10:30 at the latest. Don't forget its a 12noon game.

Great post, but we beat Finland in the gold medal game.

[Dane Pound]

According to the Troy Record Hassan, Ciccarillo and Paul Booker will be back for this game. That helps.
