AUPepBand will be there with AUKaz00; AUSousa (not a poster but a sousaphone player...known in wrestling circles as "Dr. Phil") may also be there. If the weather is as they forecast, AUPepBand will be wearing a purple cap labeled "AU Saxons" and may even be sporting either an AU Pep Band tee-shirt or AU Pep Band windbreaker...or both. Always happy to meet fellow D3football posters.

On Saxon Warriors!

Bills aren't my favorite team but I do root for them for the most part b/c of the local connection.

I'm just saying that Big game experience doesn't mean you're going to win 8)

Robinson by far....Meyers got a lot more carries on an offense that he was the only player....Robinson does not get as many carries and yet already has the school record for rushing

I tend to agree that Robinson is a better back overall, but I think the argument that Myers got more carries in an offense where he was the only player, shows how good Myers was. He was the only player on that offense, and every team had a game plan to stop him and make Fisher throw the ball (something they did not do all that well back then). Despite all of the gameplans to stop him he still got ton of yards and carried the offense.



Robinson had the exact same situation in 2004 - Every team had their gameplan to stop him too and he still set a single season rushing record for Fisher.


Agreed, I think Robinson is a better back. I am just feeding the argument

having seen both meyers and robinson play at fisher I'd have to say that they are similar backs with only one major difference. both had great vision, quickness, and patience. their major differences though is by far speed and power. meyers was around 190 and was lightning fast....could bust a short gain into a huge play any time. he was also a great receiver out of the backfield. robinson probably has 20 lbs on him and uses that power and strength to drag defenders some extra yds every carry.

both backs are/were great and not sure what fisher would do/had done without them.

i'm not a huge fan of comparing different players when both were phenominal at different times. it's like trying to compare jim brown, walter payton and barry sanders. all three were great and it would be difficult to get a true answer.

Beautiful - Hope they call that a TD b/c I've got $50 bones riding on a Seattle win w/ a combined points total of 42+...

For a second there Hasselbeck was looking like Orihel 8)

Edit:  "Freakin Fisher Fans are way too cocky" comments will start in 3, 2, 1...

They baby QB's way too much. I'm pulling for Seattle but that wasn't a blow to the head, that's terrible.

It's like nobody can ever hit the QB anymore for the love of God.

i think the springfield receivers might have better hands than jerramy stevens. how is that guy in the league? he's dropped numerous passes tonight.
