FB: Conference of New England

I know I sound paranoid but I was at the Endicott Plymouth State game and the EC QB #7 was making plays all over the field scrambling for long gains and had 3 TD passes dropped and another reception fumbled inside the 5 yd. line. If they eliminate the mental mistakes and catch the ball they could cause problems for the Colonels. ( I hope everyone elses predictions are right but I just have a bad feeling )

To add one note...it's not that Clark is throwing better, Bridgewater put away the two-headed quarterback and allowed him to throw as well as run the option. Both defenses have to contain Clark and George respectively because they can run and throw. Whichever defense slows the other guy down is going to win, I just don't see either one of them getting stopped all together.

Boxer, I had to go against the grain. otherwise everyone would have the same stats for picks every week....even if I am way off it's a change of pace

GREAT DAY FOR FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!

Good kuck all

It is great to see so many people picking and with a variety of picks. After several years of a lot of negative comments on this site (especially aimed at Framingham coaching), it is nice to see some positive statements.

Looks like there are a few folks that think EC can knock off Curry. I would like to see that, but it is at Curry on their Homecoming and EC has been erratic this year.

The CGA-BSC game should be a good one too. George, CGA QB, is a good talented QB so BSC will need to pressure him, but also keep him from running with the ball. CGA got a couple of key receivers back last week that had been out with injuries for a couple of weeks so that may change the game plan.

Looks like folks are split on the PSU-Nichols game. That should be a great one, but PSU has been more consistent in their play this year than Nichols.

Great day for Football in the NEFC.

CGA-BSC game looks like it is as good as expected with BSC leadning 14-10 at the half.

63Center · October 13, 2007, 04:31:48 PM

Wow, PSU 30 Nichols 0. So much for a close game. Looks like PSU may be the real thing.

CGA over BSC 24-21. Game looks like it lived up to expectations, but there must have been a little more defense than expected.

Good call by those picking MIT over WNEC. Not sure what happened to WNEC, it looked like they might be good this year, but appear to have fallen on hard times.

Still waiting on the big Curry-EC game tonight.

Findtheball · October 13, 2007, 08:02:00 PM

WOW PSU ...30......Nicols....O

Who said Nichols had the better defense ? And Nichols would win because of it .

NOT SO I GUESS

Dudley Hill · October 13, 2007, 09:48:57 PM

Well looks like it's 6-2 on my first week.

Went with my heart on Nichols- PSU.

PSU won every aspect of their Homecoming day, Offense, Defense, Coaching. The only thing erratic was the officiating. It wouldn't have made any difference in the game but it certainly was substandard.

PSU has a big strong O line that really leaned hard on Nichols for most of the day. Nichols D' stepped up and played well in the second quarter but with the Bison offense unable to sustain many drives and when they did seem to be getting in gear it was either a call or a turnover that stopped them in their tracks (PSU D' had a bit to do with it too!), the defense seemed to wear out quickly in the second half. They played as hard as they could but PSU has good depth, should be a terrific game PSU vs Curry.

Sorry

I didn't give the final on EC & Curry

EC 6.......Curry 38

63Center · October 14, 2007, 11:41:48 AM

After messing up the counts last week, I decided not to try to tally the picks up this week.

With PSC's trouncing of Nichols yesterday (30-0) and Curry thumping EC (38-6), the NEFC is all set for a royal battle this weekend with PSC visiting Curry. There should be some lively discussion on here this week.

EC should bounce back next week with WNEC coming into town for EC Homecoming. EC needs some turn around to salvage anotherwise disappointing season.

Looks like CQA QB George took over the CGA-BSC game with over 100 yards rushing.

Come on folks lets get the Curry-PSC discussions going.
