FB: Conference of New England

[Jonny Utah]

As sad as it may sound I bet many NEFC teams administrations do not want to travel and spend the $$$$$$$$ putting up their teams in a hotel for one night. That is probabally why a school like Curry just plays another NEFC team in week one before the cross over.
CGA is never dropping Merchant Marine in week one due to its rivalry.
The crossover game is a way for the Admins of the NEFC to collude and save money on travel.
This is the most activity this board has had in months, good to see the people putting up an opinion.

Curry has the money do travel 50 guys once every 2 years.

Utah is right... Curry has the money to play an E8 team... i think another step in the right direction for the conference is if Worcester St would beat teams like WPI in the pre season... heck i think maybe Curry should schedule WPI... teams have the money to travel and they should...remmeber every other year each team in the bogan has to travel to maine and stay over night ...therefore i think each Bogan team not going to Maine should at least try to play a E8 or LL team... i think it shoudl start with Bridgewater who def. has enough money to travel... teams like Springfied, West Conn, WPI, are all close enough for NEFC teams to travel to...

Curry should entertain the idea about getting into or forming a new conference that is more competitive. The new competition will be good for the college and hopefully create more regional interest in the program.

I believe that teams like the Curry and Bridgewaters and now Plymouth again need to play better competition. Maybe Curry should play RPI and Endicott Worcester since EC never gives RPI a run for their money.

Should be a good test for the NEFC this weekend and I think that Curry has the better team overall with a strong defense and offense as well as a pretty sturdy special teams. while hartwick can strike quick on offense i am not to sold on their defense very much. Hopefully Curry can one for us this year.

just add a few non conference games to boost experience in playing other teams in the area, then run through the NEFC and get the autobid.

And once you get good, RPI will stop playing you anyway.

You have no idea what your in for from this offense. You can not take away everthing on defense and they take what you give them and let it fly.

Thanks to the ECAC for pairing Bridewater and Plyomouth... that is exactly what the NEFC needed.  To play each other time after time.

Its not like they arnt used to it, im sure they'd rather play each other and have a competitive game rather than get stomped by AU or Cortland.

Yea but Id rather see the two regions mix it up.  Although the upstate teams/leagues (E8/LL/SUNY teams) have something to prove against each other as well.

So in other words you would like the ECAC to do something that the teams in the NEFC won't do for themselves?

The NEFC screamed to high heaven in 2002 after it got pounded in the ECAC's by upstate teams. Until then, games used to cross over.

Hartwick 69, Curry 14
Cortland State 30, Westfield State 7
RPI 55, Worcester State 29

The NEFC hasn't played a whole lot of outside competition since.

 What's everybody take on PSU vs BSC for this Saturday ?
Do these teams play one and done ?
I have to cheer for Curry this weekend even though they kicked our hinee.

                               GO COLONELS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hartwick vs. Curry: Hartwick beats up on the NEFC.
Hawks 56, Curry 16.

Did you see this post on the Around the Region (East). I cant believe that he thinks Curry will be dominated like this by the Hawks. It will be a great game to watch and is our best opportunity to get a "W" in the NCAA.

I think the PSU/BSC matchup should  be a good one and I'll take PSU by about 10
