My picks:

UMass Dartmouth over Plymouth, UMD is for real as long as Fitchburg is decent.
Coast Guard over Westfield, CG laughs at their new league
Bridgewater over Maine Maritime, MMA is not the team they were last year.
Endicott over Salve Regina I know, its a shocker that I took my alma, but move along.
Worcester over Mass Maritime, I think a closer game than in the past.
Fitchubrg over Framingham, I don't care if Fitchburg seems down, its Framingham
Nichols over MIT, the Bison are ready for MIT, they have to be.
Curry over WNEC, if this was at WNEC, I think it might be closer, but not at Curry.

Other NE Picks.
Ida over Becker
Husson over Hartwick
and Colby over Trinity.

Here are my picks for the week:

EC over Salve - EC is starting their roll through the  Boyd at least until Curry
UMD over PSC - I think PSC still has some work to do and UMD is coming into their own
CGA over Westfield - I think CGA will give folks a run for their money in the Bogan
BSC over MME - BSC still has it.
Worcester St over MMA - I think WSC is better than they have shown so far
Fitchburg over Framingham - no brainer
Nichols over MIT - This could be the best game of the weekend in the NEFC. Win goes to home team
Curry over WNEC - WNEC is still trying to get it together and Curry is already there

Do you look at the stats before you comment... I don't care if their 6-4 255... they are a bunch of fat boys... no muscle... no strength...  Either the players suck or the Offensive Cord. is an idiot... b/c last year S. Kasprzak was very good.

Week 1 vs Curry

                                                   CUR         WSC
RUSHES-YARDS (NET)............   50-163    28--6
Worcester State-Steve Kasprzak 14-13; Brian Doherty 1-4; J. Godfroy 4-2

Week 2 vs WPI
                                                    WSC      WPI
RUSHES-YARDS (NET)............    24-52   42-172
Worcester State-Steve Kasprzak 10-29; J. Godfroy 10-18

Week 3 vs Nichols
                                                    NIC        WSC
RUSHES-YARDS (NET)............   38-123   42-129
State-Steve Kasprzak 33-117; J. Godfroy 1-13

Bottom line... the coaching staff is terrible!!!

footballfan2005 who are you lee corso, of course I look at the stats genius, all I was saying is that they have the line to run the ball.  Never said they do it correctly, everyone knows when they are in pro they are running it, the only time they do move the ball is when they run outside zone out of trips, they dont not have various running sets.  Before you go and try to be some big shot, i was not shooting ur comment down I was just saying they have the size to do it......Wow

Actually if you actually watch this team play you would have a clue...  "all I was saying is that they have the line to run the ball"... did you look at the Curry stats?  If you call that a running game I don't know what planet your on! Last week they had terrible success running the ball in the first half... and the only time they had success was running right up the gut... which you said the only time they run is when they spread out and run trips... are you talking about last years offense... they aren't running spread anymore! although if the game went into overtime, like it should have I don't think WSC would have won the game...

Goes back to the discussion on coaching in this LEAGUE... Nichols scored a late touchdown w/3min remaining and went for 2 points instead of kicking the extra point... what type of coaching is that?

NCAAFootball67

#1 mr footballfan, is mma vs. wsc they were in spread all game if u saw that, and #2 if u saw that nichols game it was the right call to go for it, just not to run the ****in polecat........the wsc kicker had hit from like 44 and 42 in that game and the nichols kicker sucks, I guess everyones opinions would differ, but i say not a bad call play for the win on the road, exp. with their kicker sucking and wsc's kicker doing well...


how about those maritime boys?

footballfan2005

You just confirmed my opinion on you... You don't know what your talking about!  I did see the game and WSC ran the their shotgun formation b/c they were down 21-7 @ the half and then they fell behind even further 26-7 w/5min left in the 3rd.

Not to mention... what are they doing with the quaterback situation... the #4 was terrible... and the coaching... 2 bombs w/1min left when all they needed was 5-10 yards for another reasonable field goal for the win... the kid made a 47 yarder just minutes prior... but to ask a college kicker to hit a 52 yarder for the win... who does the coach think he has Adam Vinateri?

And Mass Maritime coaching staff almost blew a 26-7 lead... and an option w/1:30 left when WSC had no time outs left... all they had to do was run a dive... take another 30-40 sec off the clock and pin the WSC offense deep in their own end...

Where do they find the coaches in this league?  Mass Maritime def deserved to win... they dominated WSC the entire game... a few lucky broken plays led to big gains for WSC... should be fun watching WSC when they meet the strength of their schedule... I think i'll go watch 2 comp. teams next week... Fitchburg @ Bridgewater... until then

Was a little bit miffed by Mass maritime beating Worcester State. Good for MMA> It looks like something is going on at WSC with new QB. and defense.
I have seen Coast guard play twice  and may see game this weekend against MMA. Coast guard moves the ball well on offense but defense is not good. No pass rush and young secondary. But like any young squad they will only get better. My guess this year is either BSC or Fitchburgh again and Curry and Endicott.

Just a comment on the F'Burg - Framingham game.  Framingham played well and actually scored first on a fumble run back for a TD.  F'Burg is driving at the end of the first half.  They have a long pass and a nice reception to the 4 or 5 yd. line and the receiver wisely gets out of bounds.  The clock reads 00:01.  Coach Haverty sends out the FG team.  As the team is getting ready to attempt the field goal, the back ref comes running in and jestures that the half is over. Framingham, lead by Sully, races off the field leaving Coach Haverty to argue with the refs.  During the arguement, the clock still reads 00:01.  Needless to say, Haverty loses the arguement.  One may wonder about Sully being on the field consistantly, calling plays and screaming at the officials, but nothing was called.   The final was 30-6 but all the hard work the F'Burg players did at the end of the half all was for naught due to an offical error.  I don't know where a second is not a second. In football whether it's Pro, college, HS or Pop Warner when time is on the clock, you play the game.  Just an observation.

honestly fitchburg has no clock complaints after the bsc game last year when their clock mysteriously shut off for 5 minutes in a game that actually meant something, this is framingham were talkin about, they weren't gonna win the game anyways.....also their starting running back wasn't there which might have been their only chance to be in the game

The game to watch this week is definitely bsc vs. fsc though not only because of league implications, but also the rivalry....if u got no where better to be at 12 on saturday i'd be there

Sometimes the clock operator messes up before that 1 second and the refs have to keep the time on the field for the last few plays because the clock operator is unable to reset a specific time like 1 sec or something.  Im not saying that is what happened but its very possible in an NEFC game

Exactly, sounds similour to the the bridgewater/fsc game last year. Officials don't just guess and estimated time remaining in a game if an event like the main board goes off.  The time should still be kept on the field and if it isn't, shame on the NEFC, not the home team.

Some interesting early season match-ups this week.  Here are my picks:

UMD over MIT - UMD is going to be looking the "W" after last week's loss and they're at home.

Worcester St. over Framingham - Need I say more

BSC over Fitchburg - I give the edge to the home team out for revenge after last year.  Probably the best game in the NEFC this weekend.

PSC over WNEC - I am still waiting to see the real WNEC, but give the edge to PSC at home.

Westfield over MEM - Looking for Westfield to wake up.

EC over Nichols - Although Nichols is back to playing some good football, I think EC is just starting to play some good football and it looks like some of their injured players may be starting to heel up.

CGA over MMA - Look for newcomer CGA to blow through the Bogan.

Curry over Salve - I think the early hype over the new coach and system at Salve was just hype and Curry will have no problems with continuing on their winning streak.
