Biggest Week in UA Football History (vs. SHU)

[danefan]

I also think the way things are going now its a high liklihood we'll be at James Madison

That's just a guess though. So many things yet to come today.

 

Wyland seems to think UNH. We will see.

Post game rumor in the parking lot seemed to be at Norfolk State

 

 

Norfolk State AD is on record confirming that they did not bid for a home game.

 

 

They'll be on the road just like us.

BTW if SBU wins, that will mean that all four AEast football playing schools are in the playoffs despite not havin a football league.

why would we not bid for a home game??? it seems to me that that would help the new stadium cause??? thoughts???

$$$$$

First round—$30,000

Second round—$30,000

Quarterfinal—$40,000

Semifinal—$50,000

I am just thinking stadium....a number of other facilities are waiting on the football field to become a reality. I am just hoping that this monumental championship is the jumping off point. Its time for Albany sports to turn the corner!

[danefan]

Here's the teams I think are in:

 

Montana State

Montana

GSU

ASU

Wofford

Towson

UNH

Maine

ODU

JMU

SHSU

C. Arkansas

NDSU

UNI

ISU

Lehigh

Tenn Tech

Albany

SBU or Liberty

Norfolk St.

 

If SBU wins, I think we're going there.

If not, I'd bet on going Illinois State, JMU or Central Ark.

If not SB,

In terms of distance and location, I'd rather it be JMU

[Dane96]

Holy Bing...Liberty just got big timed jobbed..huge

I really hope we dont play SBU.

[Clickclack]

Looks like SBU is in...SUNY POWER!

[Dane96]

Liberty got hosed...plain and simple. SBU put themselves in position to win, so give them credit...but I dont like refs deciding games. TWO HORRIBLE CALLS at the end...absolutely atrocious.

 

I think we play SBU...and Bob Ford will not be happy, I dont think at least.

Equal scholarship count? Sign me up...this big a disparity...NO!

[Dane96]

That's exactly why...

[uofalbany]

Was SB ranked in the top 25 in any poll?

If not, why would they host?

Curious on how that works. SB wouldn't even had made the playoffs unless they won, I assume

Lesson #1 in FCS playoffs.

 

Once you're beyond the first 5 seeds, the rankings don't matter when it comes to which teams get home games. If you want a home game, you literally have to buy it from the NCAA. The highest bid of the two teams gets the home game.
