Widener had a pink visitors locker room also.

Chum Slam...Tell us how you REALLY FEEL, cmon dont sugar coat it!!!

Swimma...Thanks for some of the insight. Would really hate to see a good program collapse like that.  FDU is a good team that is coming along but I guess it was just a bad day for Lyco???

Gordo...Again I hate posting stuff I dont know first hand. I heard after the loss to DVC in 2003 that the players??? or someone painted Lycos locker room pink until they beat DVC again. Again I dont know this first hand but that is what I heard...can anyone out there substantiate this or shoud I just dry up and blow away???

[Billman56]

Pat Coleman...Give me a history lesson here please...when was DIII formed and why??

[gordonmann]

Ha.  That's interesting, particularly in light of the "controversy" associated with Iowa's pink visiting locker room.  I didn't know it existed elsewhere.

[MOJO]

If the LYCO rumor is true, it comes as a shock.  I find it hard to believe that G could lose control of the program.  Coach G and his staff have historically been a great group of coachs.  When my son was at LYCO, G and his staff had complete control of the program and were a class act.  If anyone can bring fact to the forefront, concerning this issue,  it would be most appreciated.  If true, the dynamics of this program have drastically changed, and will have long term effect on the Warrior program.

Word from the inside of Lyco last year was that things were spinning a bit out of control...

Lycoming is done.  Great ride, its over.

The MAC title will go thru DVC, Widener, and Albright.  Mark my words.

[Johnny PA]

What is going on this year?  Susquehanna winless in the MAC.  Lyco suffering.  Juniata 0 for the season.  King's only 2-3.  What is the deal at these schools?

[Warren Thompson]

Johnny PA:

Good question. Obviously something has happened (by natural selection, the whimsical intervention of the football gods, human action, human error ... who knows?).

[Billman56]

Great matchup this Saturday Widener/Albright....any predictions??

Widener 24   Albright  20

Warren...I think Lyco really pissed off the football gods somewhere along the way.  Dont let anyone tell you different Wilks is a tought team, their record just dosent reflect it.  Juniata changed head coaches 2 years ago and it has been on the slide ever since.

[Snake Parlor]

a lot of teams are struggling like susquehana and lyco.  i think the reasons thats happening is one they arent getting the kids they used to and i think the rest of the schools are getting better recruiting classes. 

as for juniata i wouldn't be surprised if they go 0-10. 

fdu beating lyco did surprise me a bit but then again fdu is always tough even when they were cellar dwellars they always gave the top teams a run for their money especially if you left them hanging around late in the game.

i think kings college is a heck of a better team than 2-3.  they completely dismantled susquehana this weekend 56-0.  that offense did what it wanted when it wanted.  kings is no rollover and will give widener, wilkes, and del val a tough game.  i could see kings winning out the rest of the season.

as for this weekend the big match up is albright at widener.  i think this will be a another dog fight. 

predictions straight from the Snake Parlor.

Wilkes 34 Lyco 12
Susquehana 14 Juniata 0
Leb Val 28 FDU 21
Albright 30 Widener 21

[Johnny PA]

My stab at it:

Wilkes 35 Lyco 14
Juniata 24 Susquehana 21 
FDU 28 Leb Val 17
Albright 49 Widener 35 (good ol' shootout)   

[Warren Thompson]

ATTN: FDU fans ...

Predicted weather for Annville on Saturday: 40% chance of morning showers and a balmy 57F.

The FDU game at Leb Val this week reminded me of this -

By the way, this is NOT a knock on Leb Val, but I wonder how Leb Val is consistantly picked by the coaches ( coaches poll)  to finish ahead of FDU, when FDU has beaten Leb Val in 3 of the last 4 meetings...
Oh well, I guess that's why the play the games 

Here's hoping for a healthy weekend for all teams!

[PBR...]

where is wuline with a preview of the wu/albright game this weekend it is a huge game for both teams...
