Albright fans who do not plan to make the 260+ mile trip to Alfred for Saturday's game will be happy to know that the game will be webcast with the following link:

But Pep would much rather you make the trip to fill the stands. The weather has been unseasonably mild in Western New York of late. The forecast for Saturday is mostly cloudy with a high of 49 degrees--perfect football weather. And, if Albright has a pep band--bring it!

On Saxon Warriors!

Anyone know the extent of Tanner Kelly's injury on Saturday? Will he play this Saturday in Alfred?

Pep's gotta know so the band can arrange its repertoire....


Pep ...pbr has been asking around on several fronts and no info...my guess no matter what the coaches will be playing it close to the vest. Albrights backup qb came in and lit it up in the 2nd half last week so either way AU should expect to see the ball in the air saturday...

Alex Yunevich used to say that when you put the ball in the air, one of three things can happen... and two of them are bad. Pep probably shouldn't be showing his cards, but it seems when the opponent puts the ball in the air at Merrill Field, good things happen for Alfred. For instance:

ST. LAWRENCE....30-for-58 passing with 4 ints, 2 TDs in a 38-16 loss
SPRINGFIELD...4-for-9 passing with 1 int, 1 TD in a 49-28 loss
HARTWICK...17-for-38 passing with 2 ints, 2 TDs in a 42-17 loss
ROCHESTER...10-for-25 passing with 4 ints and a Pick 6, 0 TDs in a 51-14 loss
UTICA...25-for-46 passing with 2 ints and a Pick 6, 2 TDs in a 56-30 loss

Passing on Merrill Field for 2009 was successful 48.86% of the time.
Passing on Merrill Field for 2009 was incomplete 51.14% of the time.
Passing on Merrill Field for 2009 resulted in an interception 7.4% of the time.
Passing on Merrill Field for 2009 resulted in an AU TD 1.13% of the time.
Passing on Merrill Field for 2009 resulted in 7 TDs in 176 passes, just about 4.0% of the time.

Therefore, for every 7 TDs an opponent has scored via the pass on Merrill Field, Alfred has scored 2 TDs.



This is true what your write pep but keep in mind in kelly your talking about 1 of the top 3 qbs in the east. He is a big boy w/ a big arm and can sling it w/ accuracy. This game will be very interesting especially if the weather holds out and kelly is healthy.

And no disrespect to the 5 teams we've played at home this year, but Albright seems to have a much better air attack than any of them.  Here's to hoping the secondary has learned their lessons from the FDU, Fisher and Ithaca games and that Manzer has at least one more pick six in him!

On Saxon Warriors!!!
Check out the official card game of the AU Pep Band - Str8 Eight!

AUPepBand

#4582
Seems that the AU Pep Band has members with connections with most of AU's prospective opponents in the NCAAs.

Among the eight teams in the East Region in order by seeding the random way they were matched up:

--AU sousaphone player (from Ohio) was recruited from Larry Kehres' backyard and was surgically removed from her twin who is a member of the Mt. Union Marching Band
--AU percussion player is from Lansdale, PA near Delaware Valley College
--AUKaZ00 after graduating from AU in '00, lived in New Jersey in the Montclair State neighborhood
--AU played Maine Maritime in an ECAC event in 2005 (when the Saxons, based on the last public regional rankings, should have been selected for NCAAs) and won 56-20
--AU flute player is from Reading, PA and her parents are Albright alums
--AU scrimmaged Susquehanna in Selinsgrove August 29, 2009. Pep drove over 3 hours in a steady rain, which stopped for 3 hours of scrimmaging, then resumed on the 3 hour ride home. AU and SU made some history in 1963-64.
--AU played W&J during its brief stint in the PAC and had little to no success against the Presidents. Probably just as well W&J is playing at the Mount.

Stay tuned....

The lack of Albright support in here is deafening, and I love it.

You just gotta belive, and sometimes you gotta pray.

GO BRIGHT!

AU,

GOING TO THE GAME?  Looks like Pennatlantic will be streaming Video, but says no audio, maybe can stream that from elsewhere...I see where if Albright AND Susquehanna can upset, next round for Bright is at home is Shirk stadium.

I see Albright has played AU before, last time in 1955 and the first time in 1929.

Love the History of it all.

WOW!!!! with an extra helping of WOW!!!!!!!  Quite an impressive win for the Aggies today. Maybe a littlr bit of revenge maybe sending a message to the MAC deserters, maybe just a plain old fashioned beat down. Either way it was impressive!

Sets up a nice rematch with Albright. Aggies will have to guard against being overconfident as I expect Albright to come out with a nothing to lose attitude and a team playing like that can be extremely dangerous.

Congratulations to both Albright and Leb Val., they along with the Aggies did the MAC proud, a little unforunate that both don't have a chance to move on next week.

Go Aggies, one more win and you get to go Big Bear hunting!

Just a great day in Doylestown
