WOW Sid I figured the Builders would score a bunch just didn't see them giving up a  bunch plus 6

Like I said...the Chowan QB went (Playstation/Xbox360, insert favorite video game here) on us.

I've never been involved in one of those types of games, but it was absolutely insane.

Good to see 2 ACFC teams get in...was hoping Salisbury would've been in another region to see how far the ACFC banner can go (times 2).  But now if the conference can snag a pair of W's on Saturday, its route 13..part 2.

Dangit..we have a men's basketball game that day

SID:

If there is any consolation, you lost to a DII  school.  I too like you was hoping Salisbury and Wesley were in different brackets, but I'm just glad the Gull made the playoff and were B's no less  .  I think Salisbury without turnovers can win at the Mules, and with Wesley hosting, it could very much ending up Route 13 part II.  Hopefully for the Gulls the outcome would be different, but I digress, we have to play Muhlenburg first at their place.

[SU Backer]

   Good job SU....kept the Cup for another year by getting it done against a determined FSU team,  that always plays hard against the Gulls in the Regents Cup game. Turnovers helped the Bobcats hang around for most of the game, although you never felt like the outcome was ever in doubt. I don't understand their record, they have as good a running back in Young, as we have faced this season. Good athletes at many positions on the field too. Not much in the way of fan support either, as mentioned previoulsly, if they had 200 out of the 2500 or so that attended, that would probably be a generous number.
 Anyway, on to Muhlenburg! If SU doesn't turn the ball over they will win this game. I think team speed favors the Gulls and playing on the old style turf may benefit them as well. This group of players have all played on that surface at Towson and at St. Peter's, so it is not "new" for them. However, if we continue this late season pattern of fumbling the ball Muhlenburg would be very tough to beat. They are 10-0 for a reason- they are a good team! Pat and the guys see this as a pretty close match up and I agree, it should be a heck of a game. On that "other" ACFC team I think HSC is in for a very long day at Wesley.
 May they all come out healthy and GO GULLS!!!!

[SU Backer]

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but I meant to post this on the Atlantic Central/Independants board.......sorry

[muledaddy]

Hi SU,

It should be a good game with a high powered offense (yours) meeting a formidable defense(ours). Defense wins games. Ball security will be the key to the outcome here. The Born Power Index gives SU a 3.1 point advantage, but I like to
think that having home field is worth 3, leaving this a tossup. Bring it.....we are
waiting......with a pretty good team....on  our home turf.......it's such a long time until Saturday......can hardly wait....

[SU Backer]

    muledaddy.........others have came on this board and talked smack.......and it has always been good for the Gulls..........the Gulls play a little defense too
we shall see come Saturday!

[Wesleyfan24]

It is time to get it started this week is a great week for the acfc Salisbury will handle Mu. no doubt about it they don't have the athletes to compete with a fast multi tooled salisbury team no turnovers i say Salisbury 42 Mulenburg 10
that being said lets move to the wesley game Hampton a little less of a chance Wesley offense will handle their defense and might even put up 45-50 points on them.  Final score Wesley 49- Hampton S. 13
You know what that means if all goes well we get another showdown at Wolverine Stadium and Wesley gets a shot to do something they have never done not only beat Salisbury once but twice in one season.  And how sweet would that be to claim route 13 in the playoffs as well as in the regular season. Go Wolverines
Wish i could be there for this weekend but cannot attend wesley wins i will be their to watch the battle for route 13

[njlincolnlion]

Wesleyfan:

I feel and hope both Salisbury and Wesley will win this weekend for the Route 13rematch.  Obviously, I hope the outcome is different with the Gulls winning if both teams meet for a second time this season.  It's always tougher to beat the same team twice  .

[muledaddy]

Wesleyfan,

I read your most recent post and can not imagine where and how the nation's
2nd leading defense, the Mules, are going to stand idly by and watch the Gulls
dance to the tune of a 32 point blowout.
It may happen, but I would sooner bet on a Tsunami hitting Ocean City and
washing inland over Salisbury..Have a nice day....please,  check your temperature
since the fever may have you in its grasp....42-10 aint happenin.....

Don't sell the Salisbury D short. Before the Wesley game they were giving up only 71 yrds per game on the ground. And they did manage to run for 285 against a Wesley D that was only giving up 79 yrds per game on the ground.
I know the Mules are good , I follow a lot of football in Pa. but don't be shocked when the Gulls start moving the ball. The Mule will have to score some points  to win...
 

[Frostie]

Slightly different subject, for those of us whose teams are not in the playoff picture.  Rubin Stevesnson has been promoted to Associate Athletic Director at Frostburg.  I woudl assume that opens up the head football coach position.  Anybody know what's happening there, or what's going to happen to the ACFC next year?

[gordonmann]

I can't speak to the Frostburg State scenario specifically, but there are lots of Athletic administrators (ADs, Associate ADs) who also continue their head coaching responsibilities in Division III.  So maybe Coach Stevenson stays at the head of the football program.

[dedragon]

Even at the small college level, it is hard to believe that they would give a struggling coach more work.  Some admin work is just fill a link in the chain, but I would want my program to be on solid ground before a reorganizing of staff responsiblity.  Just my two cents.  I hope they (Coach Stevenson or who ever) gets things turned around there.  It just makes the ACFC that much better!

njlincolnlion & PA_wsleyfan,

Good luck to both of you guys. We have a game against Albright this Sat and we need to kick arse and take nubmers. Nice job gulls. PA, I took a lot of guff from the E8 boys saying that Wesley was not that good. I was hoping you guys were going to the East and I could get some redemption. Anyway I have you guys going to the finals this year. I think it's about time you beat Whitewater. Good luck in the NCAA'S.

PS : I hope you guys from Wesley will come to Same Mills Field next year.
