Luv:

I remeber all of the "talking" by CNU fans last year.  The Captains have already lost one game.  Can you imagine how they would feel potentially playing Salisbury at 1-2? 

[Dr. Seagull]

The captains should be ready to lose again...they are just not tough kids...this is their shortcoming...the two years we played them you would think we were playing a bunch of girls...with that being said they pulled one out last year but what team doesn't win when the other team has 8 fumbles that result in turnovers.  Ten days before the game I am here to inform that Salisbury goes into CNU's house...does whatever they want...puts up 50 and the final score...

SALISBURY 52 CNU 14...you heard it first right here

This week however, Brockport is going to get it and then next week...they can explain to the CNU fans what it feels like.

I do feel the Brockport game will be closer than the experts think and the opposite for the CNU game

That's what I like to hear Dr. Seagull.

Dr. Seagull:

Did you play with Brooks Moser during your senior year?  I see he's back at linebacker.  If I recall, as a freshman, he made a few good plays for the Gulls.

Luv; acfcposter; Dr. Seagull:

Do you think Coach Woods would open up the passing game and get wide receivers Adam Dickerson and Joe Early involved if Brockport looks to stack up aganist the Gulls running game?

[Dr. Seagull]

njlincoln--
  I did play with Brooks Moser...he is a big kid with loads of potential...it is his turn to shine...he was out of the game for a year or two due to personal reasons but I hear he is twice as big as I ever knew him to be.
  About the passing game, Fleetwood is the one making most of the offensive calls.  Our bread and butter is option football. We have proven over and over again that it takes more than 8 guys in the box to stop the option.  It takes discipline.  Brockport does have that kind of discipline I talk of.  I played with both of those guys...and I feel that Early has underacheived a lot in his career so far...he is like 6'2" and can jump and run with the best of them but hasn't taken that next step...nice kid but needs to put it into that last gear for his senior year...Dickerson is not quite the raw talent but the work ethic is there...however...I hear he got beat out for the second starting wr position by a guy that I am not familiar with...They can open up the playbook and the passing plays if the oline and pass protection as a whole can protect DJ...this is the challenge.  Because of the option, they are going to have to play man...and at the d3 level there shouldn't be any corner that should be able to cover 1 on 1 Joe Early...we will see what happens.

GET 'EM GULLS...THERE'S 2-0 NOW GO GET IT

NJ,

Absolutly! I think if Brockport stacks up front, the line will know it and open it up for the receivers and tight ends to get out in front for an aerial attack. I think Brockport will have to play a balanced defense and not try too many blitzes or they might get lit up by the Salisbury passing game.

njlincolnlion:

I really don't think that Salisbury will have to throw the ball against anyone this year, unless they are getting consistentantly pushed back on the O-Line. It really does not matter how many people you put in the box, if they can not find the ball. With the confusion that the dive/option creates and the way that Dustin runs it, I really do not see any need to pass this week. Also, I do not believe that the Salisbury coaches have 100% confidence in Dustin's throwing ability and the choices that he makes. It seems to be his only weakness.

Any predictions/opinions/comments on the game tomorrow?  I understand Dr. Seagull and Brad DeHaven are planning on going to the game.

[Dr. Seagull]

Well, I was planning on going to the game if my wife was feeling better and sure enough she is...the only problem is she gave me that crap she had...oh well...I think Brad is making the trip and I really wish I could but with starting a new rotation on Monday and a killer schedule...I better lay low at home and listen to it...however...with this being said...now I have an argument to want to attend the Wesley game.

I also want to expand on Dustin Johnson...Tomorrow is the biggest game of the season for him and the entire offense.  This is his senior year and tomorrow's performance will either label him as a great qb in D3 this year and put him among the elite or it will make him a good D3 qb that brought some wins to a team that was strugling before he came.  I like him a lot and is very talented....You will hear it first here...If DJ rushes for 100 yds, completes >60% of his passes, has 1 turnover or less, and runs that offense the way he knows how...and continues this for the rest of the season...he should be considered for D3 player of the year...BUT...I am calling him out right now...turnovers are not the sign of a great qb...offensive struggles are not a sign of a great qb...We will see tomorrow if he wants to take the plunge to greatness...because if he does...The next 8 opponents are going to be in trouble...especially next week with that defense of CNU that gave up 609 yds to Rowan.

Dr Seagull,

I have to agree with your assessment of Dustin. I have seen him play alot over the years and when he is on his game, he is a man among boys. He definitely has to cut down on the turnovers, but the kid is electric in the open field. I still don't know how he ended up playing D3 football! Anyway, I think that if he blows up and dominates these next few games that we should start talking about him as an All American candidate. It is a shame that the only QB's that get any recognition are the ones that pass for a ton of yards against some sub-par competition. Good luck to all of the ACFC teams this week.

And the golden Eagles sound a lot better today than last week already...about 10 minutes left in the first a 15 yard TD Pass to make the score 7-0 Brockport over Salisbury.

Brockport strikes again with 730 left in the 1st after a long flea flicker pass, followed by another good pass, 13-0 after the missed extra point
