Nice to meet you to, PA. It's great that you remain a fan this long after your son's graduation. Division III needs more fans like that.

is it possible for wesley to have a home playoff game?

Pat Coleman · October 30, 2005, 11:47:36 AM

Possible, yes. Lock, no.

So do you guys think FSU will have a good chance in the Regent's Cup?

FSU Bobcats:

Are you currently playing? If so, you had better stop worrying about Salisbury and concentrate on Waynesburg!! Just check the all-time history against Waynesburg. They own Frostburg! Also, I hope that the Salisbury players are not forgetting about Widener. If Frostburg and Salisbury can take care of business this week, then the Regent's Cup is going to have some meaning. But, if they both lose this weekend, then the game will lose any national meaning or interest that it might have. Remember, Division III football is larger than the state of Maryland.

I have been out of college for some time. As far as Division III football being bigger than the state of Maryland, I know it is. But it's been quite some time since Frostburg could lay any claim to national relevance. For us, the Regent's Cup game has been our biggest game. It's gratifying that we're back to being a somewhat sucessfull program.

I would love to see my 'Cats win out and get an ECAC bid and the Regent's Cup.

We had a very nice win this weekend and I think we use that momentum into next week too.

Don't look ahead it's very very dangerous!!!
But honestly.. If Frostburg can neutralize Salisbury's speed like Wesley did they may have a chance but they have to play better D than they did against Wesley.

FSU Bobcats · October 30, 2005, 09:15:54 PM

We're 3-1 in the last 4 Cup games with the only loss coming last year.

But you're right, it's dangerous to look ahead, especially when we're coming off of the type of run we'd had the last few seasons.

7-3 would be a great step towards getting back to the Top 25.

6-4 would be an improvement over last season and still a good effort.

5-5 would mean two straight Regent's losses and a lot of questions for next season.

FSU Bobcats:

I did not mean anything by my statement, but I just think that Frostburg has settled for average over the past 5 years or so. It seems like they only care about beating Salisbury. I totally agree that if Frostburg can win out they should have a good shot at an ECAC birth. But, Frostburg has really had a hard time with Waynesburg in the past. Also, Frostburg is not good enough to look past anyone. Just look at the Newport News game (no offense nnasid). There is no way that Frostburg should ever lose to a club team! Finally, if you went to Frostburg and played there you should be well aware of the "Waynesburg Curse". I believe that they even knocked Frostburg out of the playoffs a couple times throughout the 1990's.

FSU Bobcats · October 30, 2005, 09:28:36 PM

I did spend four great years there, but didn't play. During my sophmore year, we were ranked in the Top 25 for a good part of the season as well.

And we do have an obsession with beating the Gulls. It wasn't as bad as it is now when I was there. I think our slide to mediocrity had something to do with it. Even when we were in the middle of a losing season, we could always rise up and beat the Gulls. It helped when the Gulls were ranked as well.

Waynesburg is going to be double tough. Saturday showed me that. We needed a huge 4th quarter rally to beat Westy.

The bottom line is that I want to see the boys win out. 7-3 with a Regent's win and a possible ECAC birth would be a HUGE step to getting back to respectability.

FSU Bobcats:

I totally agree that winning out would be great for the 'Cats. Believe me, I will be pulling for them. What year did you graduate from Frostburg? I know alot of people that went there. Maybe we have some of the same friends?

FSU Bobcats · October 30, 2005, 09:53:47 PM

Well, I never actually graduated. I was a semester away when some things happened at home and I had to leave school. One semester!

Anyway. My last year was 2001. I was a social science and secondary education dual major.

Hampton U SID · October 31, 2005, 10:46:13 AM

club team?
minus karma there

PA_wesleyfan · October 31, 2005, 12:06:25 PM

HAHA you tell em NNASid!!!!

PAT

If my karma gets any worse I may have to start doing yoga and chanting.

njlincolnlion · November 03, 2005, 09:50:25 AM

Which Salisbury team will show up this week aganist Widener? I sincerely hope Salisbury bounces back from the shellacking they received from Wesley, the way Wesley rebounded after their loss to Brockport.

I hope Coach Wood has the Gulls prepared, Both Salisbury and Widener have 2 losses and are fighting for their playoff lives.

btw, this board is awfully quiet.
