Also, to everyone who is already placing their team against Rowan in whatever round of the playoffs.  Rowan has not made the playoffs yet this year.  Its only the 5th week of the season, they could still lose, although I do see them as a playoff team.  However, nobody in the MAC has room to place themselves in the playoffs.  Its WEEK FIVE.  You have to finish first in the MAC or get the next bid, and last time I checked NOBODY has clinched the MAC just yet.  Lets cut the "When we play Rowan" talk, because Rowan still has to make the playoffs, and that stays the same for every team represented in this board.  And, please dont give me the "Well Last year" comment, because let me tell you something, Last year is over and done with.  DVC is the reigning MAC champs, and that means absolutely nothing right now.  FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO FORGOT THIS IS WHY THE GAMES ARE PLAYED, AND THERE IS A LOT OF SEASON LEFT.

Predictions for 10/1

Moravian over Widener
Delaware Valley over Lebanon Valley
Lycoming over FDU
King's over Susquehanna
Albright over Juniata

Last Week (4-1)
OverAll Record (15-2)

Opinions appreciated....

I believe there is no MAC team that could beat Rowan this year.   I agree with "Dog" playoff talk now is too early in the season.

YAWOHL DYNASTY,
DEUTCHMANN UBER AGGIES! 21-14 BLIETZKRIEG!!!!!!!!!!!!,

YO DOG,
DON'T GET SO EMOTIONAL.  IF THE DUTCHMAN DEFEAT THE AGGIES, I CAN RECOMMEND A GOOD THERAPIST FOR THE DEPRESSED AGGIE FANS.  ALSO, THE ROWAN QUESTION WAS APPROPRIATE, BECAUSE WITH FEW EXCEPTIONS WE ARE FANS AND/OR FORMER PLAYERS, NOT CURRENT PLAYERS.  WE CAN SPECULATE, CURRENT PLAYERS MUST THINK ONLY IN TERMS OF ONE TEAM AT A TIME.  OTHERWISE, THEY ARE DOOMED.  IT DON'T MATTER WHAT YOU OR I ARE THINKING OR QUESTIONS WE ARE ASKING, WE AREN'T PLAYING OR COACHING.

one game at a time is the way to look at things for everyone at this point, most teams in the mac can play with anyone, even those looked at as 'lesser skilled' teams. the 'battle of the valleys' has long been a heated game for dvc and lvc had been the doormats of the conference. now dvc is a very talented team and the lvc has great potential, watch out for a barnburner in doylestown. as for the rowan comments earlier, they are the team to beat in the northeast so they make a great team to compare others to.

again, watch out for the dutchmen saturday, its their game to make a statement in the mac!

If you can't make it to Doylestown, you can still catch the "Battle of the Valleys" on the internet.

Pregame coverage begins at 12:30 PM with kickoff at 1 PM on www.sportsjuice.com.

Shoot us an email during the game at pngsports@msn.com if you're so inclined.

Gameday is here.  Any chance LVC's Coach Monas has consulted with ex boxing great, Muhammed Ali, and has come up with a defensive version of the Rope a Dope, to tire/wear out the DVC O.  Although, no matter what the outcome, I'll be supporting LVC.  For LVC to be in this, they must play their best game of the year on both sides of the ball.  Go Dutchman!  Best of luck to the Warriors also.

The rope a dope is not going to help...DVC is at one level, the rest of the league another!!

With that said the DVC players will work for most the other MAC players for remainder of their life so let the aggies enjoy being a non-acadmic team in a mostly academic league.

best of luck d-men..

Hey, mondaya:

That's a damned ignorant comment above. How long did it take you to think it up?

mondaya.m.qb

Ignorant huh??

Face it the real ignorance on this board is from everyone that thinks that all the MAC schools are alike and recruit the same student athletes.  With the exception of Knoblach(who was a very good HS student) there may be a handful of players on the DVC roster that were admitted to any other MAC schools.

Please understand this is not a knock at DVC or Coach Mangus.  The school had a need several years ago.  That need was to fill the seats in the classroom with bodies.  Coach Mangus filled that need by filling emptyseats in the classrooms with football players.  Any other coach in the MAC would do the same.  But the people on this board need to recognize that in the MAC there are schools that are considered competitive academically and those that are not.  DVC is not...but they do fill a need for those students that cannot even be recruited by the other schools.  Make no mistake about it Coach Mangus and his staff work their butt off.   They find players who may not be students but can play and then they have to keep them in school.

Warren,
I am anything but ignorant on the subjects of recruiting, coaching, or understanding how small colleges operate.  My previous statement can be labeled as strong or out of line but not ignorant!!

I would say mainly you're jealous and need to insult someone else to make yourself feel important. As was stated last week give up the academic comparisons, they are totally irrelevant on this board.

Now for all those who predicted a close game or were even dreaming of a LVC win, guess you got a jolt of reality today. DVC should have had two more scores and a shut-out. I saw nothing from LVC except horrific tackling and blocking.

Lastly, I would like to point out that although the DVC offense is highly touted the defense has been outstanding and most impressive.

Congrats Aggies on a great win!

After another beating, does Lycoming pack it in this year like they did last year?  I never would have thought that FDU would have dropped a bomb on them like that.  The game with Wilkes is a big one isnt it?  Then Ithaca is on the schedule... They could start 1-5.
