FB: Conference of New England

[D3 Fan]

Your welcome PG...  I wouldn't be surprised if Curry get's a chance to play a little closer to home next week regardless of the rankings. 

[Pat Coleman]

If they bring a lower seeded team into the bracket then yes, that would happen.

Curry v Springfield.... interesting

I think both teams will be pumped for this one, they'll finally get to see who the best team in MA really is, seeing how both teams are always in the top 3 in New England but never play each other.

[D3 Fan]

Curry Springfield gives Curry a legitimate chance to win and move on to the second round.  Pat,I know you were looking ahead to possible turf wars for Springfield but this is a good match up for Curry.  Win or lose it should be a fun game to see.  Good luck Curry....

My prediction is upset....Curry beats Springfield in a shootout.....

Tom Kelley is going to be the new coach at Framingham State? He really did a good job with the Twins. Two World Series Championships. When he retired and Gardenhire came in, I was worried, but he seems to have kept up the winning tradition. TK coaching football. What next?

[fan of d3]

Please tell me you are joking when you say Curry will beat SC... I mean, COME ON.

It's cool and all if you wanna root on your team but be realistic. They are one of the best offensive teams in the country, their QB is the best athlete in the country, and you almost lost to CGA who was a bottom feeder in the LL.  Which by the way didnt SC beat the LL champ???

get a grip.  Congrats on making it but you will be making an early exit.

Lewdog, who would you want the message to be sent to?  The players who are doing all that they can?  The coaches who are trying to be better or the administration who doesn't care about winning an NCAA game.  I'm just asking because you have parents and players reading these posts but I'm sure the School Presidents or AD's aren't.  I'm just curious because it seems that poeple,like yourself,like to continue putting the NEFC down because why??? Does it make you feel better about your league?   The players get it.  They know that they haven't won a tourney game yet....How many times can it be repeated???

My point is that the poeple who can really make a difference aren't hearing what you're saying...and aren't judging the success of the league based on winning an NCAA gane.  Just my opinion....


Congrat's to Curry and CC

Does it make me feel better about my league?  No.  I'm a MA guy, and i'd like to see them do well.  And there wasn't 1 d3 coach from the NEFC that recruited me.  I had plenty of local colleges, and plenty of other d3 schools, as well as a bunch of d2 and d1AA schools knocking my door down.  But not 1 NEFC coach.  I'm a firm believer that the High School talent in New England is up to par if not better than New York, but the kids go and play elsewhere, where they are wanted.  It's ashame.  Is it the players in the NEFC's fault that the teams aren't up to snuff?  Not at all.  It's the coaching and the Administration.  And while you may be sick of hearing it, I'm probably going to reiterate it every single year until the NEFC gets it's ass in gear.  Their coaches don't recruit hard enough.  The Administration doesn't put enough weight or emphasis on athletics.  And the result is an embarrassment on the national scene.  And with a few exceptions here and there, this is the same in just about all sports, not just football.

I have to agree here. I think Curry will beat Springfield as well. Final score prediction: Curry 49-42.

[Jonny Utah]

For what its worth, Currys d-coor is former Ithaca player and coach (and former Springfield coach) Todd Nestor.  That could give Curry some sort of bonus.

[labart96]

Congrats to Curry.  Good luck vs. SC!

[The Truth 00]

oh yea, what kind of bonus is that??  curry will score some points but they aren't ready for springfield. get real nefc fans. they also have to play at springfield on the concrete turf against arguably the best player in all of d3. stop being so naive people.

Hey, I think SC will win 48-14.  Im just saying the Curry d-cord is very familiar with Springfields offense (and defense) thats all.

[lewdogg11]

The thing with Springfield is, you know what is coming.  Can you stop it?  1 team could this year.  I'm gonna go not too far out on this limb here and say that Curry certainly won't be able to stop it.  Too much speed for the Indian Spices.

I'm gonna be nice, and make my prediction as:

Springfield 35
Curry 10

[sickofBS]

After watching Selection show and watching Curry getting some disrespect, (Pat's looking forward past the first round cuz SC is gonna walk over curry, he didnt say it bit it was there i saw it... Im not puttin down Pat, he's the man. just tellin it they way i saw it)
And reading the posts here, (because i know alot of players lurk these boards) 
Im going with Curry in a huge upset over SC. 

Curry's got something to prove, they have a solid run defense and an offense that is peaking at the right time.

[pg04]

Don't you all always pick Curry, and don't they always lose? There's no basis to such a pick until they prove they can come anywhere near the other teams in the region. 

Not trying to incense anyone, but anyone outside this conference, while not overlooking you, know that Curry isn't there yet.
