i was away for the week... sorry about having no picks...Curry is third in the east region in the rankings right now...i think this could be the year they win us a game

[Findtheball]

 Let's GO CURRY !!!!!!!!!! Make all of us happy in the NEFC !!!!!!!

                              THIS IS YOUR YEAR !!!!!!!!

[Findtheball]

 Do you really think all that negative karma IS GOING TO GET ME TO STOP TALKING ............NOT 

Whose the guy in the big shoes dissing me anyhow ?  Fess up so we can be friends .

Alright already I made 1 dumb post and I become your whipping boy , If I had control of your keyboard I'd fix it , but I don't , so please do.

This weeks AFCA poll is out and Curry has been ranked #22. I believe that this is the first time ever. NEFC could be our year to win one.

[D3 Fan]

Not the first time an NEFC team has been ranked in the top 25.  Let's see who get's to the dance and who they are playing before anyone starts thinking that this is the year...

Generally, the Top 6 eligible teams that have not qualified for the NCAA Tournament will be selected.

* - NEFC Championship game will determine one of these teams as an AQ from Pool A.

** - One of these schools will win AQ from Pool A.  The two others may win a Pool C bid, but for now, we count them in the ECAC rankings.

*** - Tied.  However, Cortland and Ithaca play each other.  Hobart could still win Pool C bid or LL title.

Ill probably end up going to the Curry/CG game.  Noon start though!  Interesting note though is that CG head coach (Bill George) and DC (Ray Laforte) are both Ithaca grads and former coaches while Curry DC is former Ithaca grad and coach Todd "Butch" Nestor.

[defenseiskey]

This should be a great game to watch. I do believe that Curry has a stronger team overall than CGA does. CGA has a good sytem going for them but Curry will be to much for them. If Curry wins what are their chances of a home playoff game? What Pool will they be in?

About time the NEFC representative made it to an NEFC game.

Utah, with your knowledge of the NEFC, how do you see this game playing out??  Can you give an overview of the Curry 'D' versus Coast Guard 'O' and vice-versa??  Any thoughts on special teams play??

[gullgrad]

Here is my take on it.  I have seen Curry play this year and they are rather impressive.  Their O looks better than it has in years past.  On the other hand, the Curry D does not look as good as they have before.  I think they will have a tough time with that CG O.  But with an improved O on their side, I think Curry wins by 6.  35-29.  Good luck to both teams.

What went wrong gulls???
