HANGTIME

PBR...I went to Fridays game and watched two very good teams battle it out in horrible weather. With so much at stake I questioned why this wasnt postponed until Saturday? But then again I am only an Aggie fan.

IN MY OPINION I thought the offensive play calling for the Aggies was horrendous...How many times can you run up the middle, off tackle or run a QB draw...It isnt working guys...every team in the MAC has watched the films and they are on to us....So now we have an outstanding QB with a great arm who holds the ball too long and would rather lose yards on a sack then throw it out of bounds...come on coach...coach him. He is holding the ball until the receiver is open when he should be throwing to a spot where he is going to be and have to fight for the ball.  Come on coaches it is not Donny or David out there anymore...on third and 10 why are we throwing downfield 30 yards into double coverage??? Throw the higher percentage pass of 12 yards....this is basic stuff...I would love to know the thought process there. 

To the "O"  and the entire "D" you guys did a hell of a great job through all the elements that night...nice job !!!  You guys didnt lose that game but the play calling did.
You guys have come too far and have worked too hard to stop now...win out the rest of this season...good luck!!!

I apologize if I have stepped on the toes of anyone on this board, especially any Aggie fans....it was certainly not my intention.

GO AGGIES...BEAT WILKES AND ALBRIGHT


PBR...

interesting observations hangtime. not sure on the game plan as i wasnt there maybe gordon can add some insight since he has seen them the most this year. although he may have to be a little measured in his analysis. weather wise saturday was almost as bad as friday for most of the day probably only would of helped if they could of pushed it back to saturday night at least the rain stopped by then but the winds were pretty heavy still.

The only reason to suspend a game is due to Lightning.  With all the rain that we had, the field was in great shape.  I didn't notice anybody having issues with the footing.

I remember playing against Juniata at the old stadium up on campus, during the final stages of a hurricane.  The only part of the field that wasn't under water was between the hashes.  While taking my stance, out on the corner, I looked down and noticed that my feet were in a puddle up over my ankles.  No joke.  After the game, it took me about 10 minutes to take my cleats off.  They were suctioned to my feet.

Those were the days.

The coaches have used Decker as the big back in there one back set formations all year. He is used as a combo back and actually catches the ball very well out of the backfield. Besides, Payton (2) was hurt on the second carry of the game, and I am told that (20) was hurt during the week in practice, and was not fully healthy.

WU Gridiron-
Please do not  misrepresent  yourself. I sit with many of the families of the D lineman at WU football games and non have the same last name of any RB's on the roster. The dline at WU has always been a tight group and we do not take kindly to being used in such a ploy. Also the reason for featuring Decker is very simple. He was very effective. And dispite your belief, part of good coaching is using the right people at the right times.

Hey guys it has been awhile since I posted but....I was just wondering if you guys had  any info on Kings this year....could not believe their record when I looked at the MAC standings.....If anyone has seen them play....any info would help..Thanks guys...

HANGTIME

Formerwu....thanks for the info regarding the lightening and postponement of games.

I sure hope the Aggie play calling gets a little creative this week against Wilkes...is there a Taboo on passing on first down...can anyone shed some light on this???  Open it up boys...nothing to lose now.  This weeks game should be sweet revenge from last years game....

GO AGGIES!!!!

PBR...

pbr feels good about this weeks game for dvc....pbr thinks they take care of business and payback for last years game

First allow me to congratulate Widener on their win. While it wasn't the game it could have been, it was still fun to watch two terrific defensive units make the opposing offense look weak. I disagree with those calling for "opening it up" or throwing more, at least in terms of the WU game. I felt the failures of the offense centered around the lack of protection for Isgro who had someone in the backfield nearly as soon as the ball was snapped. The tight end was not utilized enough for either blocking or pass catching. The spread offense was essentially useless due to WU's pass rush, so why not bring in a TE and FB and force the run issue. Passing in the rain was obviously not a good idea.

As for fumbles, the WU team actually did themselves a favor by fumbling the ball as it led to a first down and a score when their QB fumbled/recovered/advanced the ball. The Isgro fumble was critical, but the kid shouldn't have been in that position to begin with.

Now all DVC can do is take care of their own business by winning their remaining games and let the chips fall where they may.

One last note, perhaps not important to this board, but WOW to Wesley beating Salisbury. I really thought Salisbury was the better team.

Was it me or was that place always a swamp?  Rained every time we played there. I also have to give DelVal some respect as well, they did have the damn finest grass around. That field was like playing on overgrown Cashmere!

Now onto the serious stuff, after the Ass-Kicking that Albright is going to hand DU and DV the next two weeks, who are the potential first round contenders that they will smash, and how is that determined? NJAC schools? Centenial? Throw me some love here and...

Havent "Pancakes" been elevated to official stat status yet?

I am with ya PBR,,,,time for some paybacks. Put the Widener game behind us and let the cards fall where they may. I still say 3-way tie. Need to shut 'Lames' up. Smack him around a little.

Lanes, Lanes, Lanes -

You probably have not seen the WU or DVC defenses play this year or you would not have made such a arrogant statement. If you had you would realize that neither of those teams is going to be blown out.  I would not put to much stock into some of those teams you have been beating up on, not that many wins between them. You may want to hold off on buying your playoff tickets a little longer, the only ass you may be kicking is your own, after you remove your foot from your mouth.
