Does anyone have any early predictions on how the ACFC teams will fare next year? I have to assume that Salisbury will be hit very hard with graduation. Any opinions?

I am also interested to see if Satchell is playing. He could definitely affect the outcome of the game. I really think that Frostburg is peaking at the right time and Salisbury's injuries are going to be too much to overcome. Regardless, it is going to be a great game. Hopefully, one of these teams will still be playing next week in an ECAC game!

What a day for the ACFC! It looks like Wesley and Brockport are hitting on all cylinders. I would ove to see them play again on a DRY, neutral field. Also, hats off to Frostburg. Coach Stevenson and his staff shut down their opponent and the offense did just enough to take care of business. This makes for a very interesting Regent's Cup game next week. Frostburg is relatively healthy and Salisbury is banged up. The winner of the game should get serious consideration for an ECAC playoff birth. I predict Frostburg in a close one. Something like 20-17. I would like to hear what Dr.Seagull has to say.

I totally agree that winning out would be great for the 'Cats. Believe me, I will be pulling for them. What year did you graduate from Frostburg? I know alot of people that went there. Maybe we have some of the same friends?

I did not mean anything by my statement, but I just think that Frostburg has settled for average over the past 5 years or so. It seems like they only care about beating Salisbury. I totally agree that if Frostburg can win out they should have a good shot at an ECAC birth. But, Frostburg has really had a hard time with Waynesburg in the past. Also, Frostburg is not good enough to look past anyone. Just look at the Newport News game (no offense nnasid). There is no way that Frostburg should ever lose to a club team! Finally, if you went to Frostburg and played there you should be well aware of the "Waynesburg Curse". I believe that they even knocked Frostburg out of the playoffs a couple times throughout the 1990's.

Are you currently playing? If so, you had better stop worrying about Salisbury and concentrate on Waynesburg!! Just check the all-time history against Waynesburg. They own Frostburg! Also, I hope that the Salisbury players are not forgetting about Widener. If Frostburg and Salisbury can take care of business this week, then the Regent's Cup is going to have some meaning. But, if they both lose this weekend, then the game will lose any national meaning or interest that it might have. Remember, Division III football is larger than the state of Maryland.

Unbelieveable job today by Coach Drass and his staff!!! It looks like Salisbury forgot to get off of the bus. After this loss, Salisbury has to win the next 2 games to have a chance of making the playoffs. Both games will not be easy. As a matter of fact Salisbury is going to have to play very well against Widener and Frostburg to win both. Widener is a very tough program and the Frostburg/Salisbury game is up in the air every year. By the way, does anyone have scores on the Frostburg or Newport News games? Hopefully, they are representing the conference well again today. Finally, even though it looks like Brockport is going to lose, they played an elite team very well. If they could have just scored!!

Picks this week:
Salisbury 38
Wesley 24
Salisbury just has too much offense. Wesley still reeling from last week's humiliating loss!
Frostburg 17
Westminster 14
Frostburg one in a defensive struggle. Kevin Culbert makes a play in the 2nd half that decides the game in the favor of Frostburg.
Rowan 42
Brockport 13
Brockport gets a taste of reality by an elite team. Rowan controls the game from the opening kickoff. The only Brockport points come late in the game when the 2nd team is in.

I was shocked to hear the Brockport score! It sounds like Coach Salomone (sp?) really out-coached Coach Drass on Saturday. There is no way that they are that much better than Wesley. With that being said, it is going to be interesting to see how Wesley rebounds against Salisbury. If Salisbury gets on top early, will Wesley roll over again? Also, it looks like Frostburg is starting to play better. Their next 2 games should be very interesting. They have Westminster and Waynesburg. Frostburg could very easily win both of these games, but Waynesburg has always given Frostburg trouble, no matter how bad they were. One game that I think people are forgetting about for Salisbury is their game against Widener. Widener plays very good football in a tough conference. I am not sure if Salisbury will make the playoffs with 2 losses. It is going to be very interesting on how this season will play out.

I checked out the St.Peter's website and they do not look too good. I know that it seems like Wesley and Frostburg used to play 1-AA non-scholarship teams all the time in the past and really didn't have too much trouble beating them. I assume that this will be the same this weekend for Salisbury. Basically, there are on the same level as D3 when you think about it. Does anyone know if playing this game against a non- division 3 team will hurt Salisbury for playoff contention? I always thought that they would not receive points for beating a non-D3 team. If this is the case, then the Wesley game becomes even bigger for Salisbury. If they lose to Wesley, then they might be on the outside looking in during playoff time. Pat, would you have any information on the whole playing non-D3 teams and how it affects the playoffs?

Frostburg beats Thomas Moore today!!!!! Thomas Moore was in first place in the PAC going in to today. I believe the score was 23-6. It was Frostburg's first road win since 2003! Great day for the ACFC! It is time that we get some national respect.

My God! Is it just me or is Salisbury getting better? 77 and now 62 points!!!! It seems that they have gotten more focused since Dustin went down and are really hitting on all cylinders. Hopefully, they are not peaking too soon. If they can keep this up, they are really going to be tough to beat. Also, it looks like Wesley took care of business as usual. With the playoff field being expanded, is there any chance that both Salisbury and Wesley could make the playoffs? It would be great for the ACFC if they could both get in!
