FB: Conference of New England

[Boxer7806]

i know it is only three games into the season but i dont think I have seen as much offensive parity in this leauge in a long long time. There are some stud QB's in this leauge with Van Geisen from Curry, the kid from WNEC and the new QB from Framingham his name is Rich who has won 2 player of the week honors already... heck i think the leauge has 6-7 guys who are averaging over 100 yards a game rushing... with such good offenses it seems if Nicholls continues to be stingy on Defense they might challenge Curry... heck the whole Boyd side with Plymouth State, Curry, Nicholls, and Umass Dartmouth might be better then every team on the Bogan maybe other than Bridgewater... good season is on its way

[MC3]

Curry over WNEC - 42-21
Bridgewater St over Maine Maritime - 35-21
Salve Regina over Endicott - 24-14
Plymouth St over Mass-Dartmouth - 35-31
Worcester St over Mass Maritime - 42-17
MIT over Nichols - 42-38
Framingham St over Fitchburg St - 42-35
Coast Guard over Westfield St - 28-14

[Boxer7806]

Curry kills WNEC 60-21
Bridgewater over Maine 28-13... Bridgewater D too tough for Maine
Endicott over Salve 23-12... I like Endicott to rebound
Plymouth State over Umass D 30-28... i believe this will be the game of the week and the winner has the inside track to their repective showdowns with Curry
Worcester over Mass Mar 31-13... i think Worcester gets back on track and wins big no upset this year
Nichols over MIT 21-14... MIT will face a worthy D in Nichols and come out on top
Framingham over Fitchburg 42-28... Another shootout for Framingham but i think they come out on top again
Westfield State over Coast Guard 21-7... Westfield has a very good defense that Curry exploited... i dont think CGA has a good as offense as Curry so i look for Westfield to shut them down

Divisional play starts and in the Boyd we all know Curry is the team to beat.  I think UMD could be that team, but they got to get by Plymouth this week.  If they do, watch out.  In the Bogan it's possible that a 5-2 record could win the division, in a tie-breaker.  I don't think Coast Guard is the team to beat this year and that opens it up.  The team that can find some defense will probably come up on top, but haven't seen much of that yet.  My picks this week.

Boyd Division:
Curry doubles up WNEC, 42-21
Salve Regina over Endicott, 27-10
MIT outlasts Nichols, 35-28
UMD edges out Plymouth, 28-21  This is the Boyd game-of-the-week and UMD wants it more.

Bogan Division:
MMA squeaks by Bridgewater, 28-27, but team that makes the least mistakes will win.
Westfield over Coast Guard, 28-14
Framingham over Fitchburg, 35-33,  Framingham is still on a high after the last second win last week and Fitchburg is still looking for that train that ran them over last week.
Worcester takes it to Mass Maritime and wins walking away, 35-14

Thanks for playing. No sharing of e-mail addresses. And "your brother" wouldn't have been posting from the places you posted from.

Boooo....Guru killed one of the only reasons to visit this board.  That kid would have continued to dig himself a huge hole....'using my brothers e-mail' is classic.

[Findtheball]

 Wet weekend
Let the running game begin

Curry over Wnec
Ec over Salve
Nicols over MIT
and the game of the week
PSU over UMass

BSU over MMA
Framingham over Fitchburg
CGA over Westfield
Worcester over Mass MA

I feel like I'm forgetting a game
Did you guys want points with the games or is good enough
                               nlng

 PSU over UMD 30- 10
Plymouths defense totally shut down J.T. Harold he only had 74 yds all game . The rain held off , it actually was quite comfortable .
Jeff Mack had another great game 200 + yards . The teams seems like it's starting to gel . The younger players are really stepping up . I think PSU's program is on the mend & on track to be the PSU of old .

Curry won again , what a surprise .
MIT won
Salve won

I think this year seems to have more parity, any given Sun Saturday.
Iwas surprised to see there wasn't any more posts since my last.
What games did people go to this weekend and what is your outlook?
I'll be waiting since I'm on vaca this week coming .

C'mon lets push this pages along.

the suprise of the week is maine maritime beating bridgewater... that was a shocker and congrats to plymouth beating up on umass d... i honestly feel plymouth might take over and win the boyd...

[InTheMix]

Well, I went 5-3 this week with my picks

almost got a couple of the scores right too

how did everyone else do?

[vttanker]

I also was 5-3 for the week.

Was at the Bridgewater vs Maine Maritime game and weather wasn't a factor.  Maine has the running game working and BSC couldn't do much to stop it.  Maine is running the wishbone and this year the QB (Angell) has a year under his belt with this system and isn't making many mistakes.  Passing still isn't great, but good enough to keep you honest.  He burnt BSC with two long passes that were spot on for TDs.  The other running backs are fast enough to break it on any one play so you just can't key on the fullback Bower.  Maine's defense is still coming along and that is their weakness.  BSC had a sub-par day passing and that hurt them.  Their backfield is very fast and at times Maine was chasing them allover the field.  They were all most the game breaker that got BSC back in the game, but they fell behind early, 21-3 at halftime and couldn't catch up.  BSC is still going to be a team that can win every week so this was a big win for Maine.

There are some good match-ups this week in the Bogan so it will be interesting to see who starts to pull ahead of the pack.  Other than the MIT-UMD game in the Boyd I don't see any real surprises this week.

[Findtheball]

 I didn't fair as well as you guys , I went 4 for 4 .
I would've like to have seen the MIT> Nichols game , pretty evenly matched.
What's going on with EC this year ? Is Salve that strong this year? We'll see how good MIT is, in this coming week playing UMD , UMD doesn't want to lose 2 in a row. Did anyone go to the Curry game ? Are they as tough as last year ? WNEC I thought looked good last year, still young though. Seems like the Boyd side has the better teams this year I could be wrong though.

Looking ahead this could come down to the wire . I think the NEFC is looking pretty strong as a whole , who knows this could be the year.

I try to get my picks in early this , I might have to edit them a couple times, thats ok isn't it ?
