Fisher should just take care of business this weekend and then look to get ready for AU. The problem will be if they are looking ahead, and let UC hang around for a while. Fisher needs to win strong to make a statement for the playoffs. It is a big game every weekend since that loss to Hartwick...

budcrew....

any insight as to what happened at Utica?  Im thinking something must have happened for a d3 coach to leave in the middle of a season.  Theres something more to that story.

(sorry if I missed any talk about it, I didnt see any)

Only game that matters Dan?  Are you already hedging on the biggest game of the year?  Playoffs or not, you'd be hard pressed to convince me that the Cortland or IC players care about any game more than the Jug.  That is just the nature of college football.

Yeah,  You got me there Jose.

MIOH was referring to Pool C competition however, and that is the only context I wrote in.  In terms of making the playoffs, the Cortland-TCNJ game is the only one that matters at the moment.  I stand by that.

In terms of the most important game in our hearts though, yeah that has to be Cortaca.  I'm already stoked for this one.

The bombers would probably need representation on the selection committee to pull off something like that MIOH would guess...

hey pride

At the very least.  Although if there was a year for 2 loss teams getting in, this would be it.  The way I see it you need RPI to run the table.  If they fall to Pool C with 1 loss, it will be a killer for the other East hopefuls. 

And irony of ironies, IC probably needs to be Cortland's biggest fan for a few weeks.  If Cortland beats TCNJ and Rowan, then an IC win becomes a lot more impressive.  If Cortland is stumbling to the finish line, nobody is going to care on the committee.

NCAA Regional Rankings are out....

1.  Alfred  7-0  7-0
2.  Curry  8-0  8-0
3.  Rensselaer  6-0  6-0
4.  St. John Fisher  7-1  7-1
5.  The College of New Jersey  6-1  6-1
6.  Albright  6-1  6-1
7.  Cortland State  5-1  6-1
8.  Union (New York)  4-2  4-2
9.  Hobart  5-2  5-2
10.  Delaware Valley  4-2  4-3

Seriously does anyone know why Delaware Valley is in the top ten?  They have beat the bottom teams in their conference and thats it... plus they have three losses?  Am I missing something?

Only two of the losses are in the region...Take heart that the three MAC leaders are all 4-0, meaning they all play each other to end the season -- so this will sort itself out no matter what.

If Hobart beats Alfred and runs the table, I'd count Ithaca out of a Pool C bid, especially if Hartwick falters at all down the stretch.

No I don't know. I wish I did. I don't know if anyone would tell me, even off the record.

Late night post!!

And my last post until Sunday, probably.  Jose, the former chairman, and I will actually be in the same city this weekend (and even if we somehow met each other we'd never know it) as I head off to the World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail party (no matter what the networks say!).  I don't really care who wins so I'm basically just there to drink.

In D3, Should be an interesting weekend in the east, can't wait to see what developed when I get back!

Another late nite of guitar hero and some substitute (I love that word) for Utica club has gotten me nothing but pumped for saterday!  Weather updates?  The VA tech BC game looked ugly and i'm gettin a good needed douche of H2o down here.  Keeley channels Matt Ryan and still comes through in the clutch.  Whats that word?  Oh ya.  MONEY.
P.S.- I know its not good to do this by the way.  But man it feels sooooo good to have a great QB. I think my mancrush might officially change after these next few weeks from Brady to Keeley.  The only scary part is, Brady thought I was weird/crazy, Keeley thinks its par for the course and prolly likes it!
Hey Nitche, take off the skirt and hold onto the ball this time.  Thanks.

[er1948]

FA91- maybe 100 yds with a UC tied on a string hanging 3ft in front of you- you'd need inspiration ya know
