Serious question: Is anything more embarrassing than the Region 1 RRs?

Feeling depressed about today and wasn't gonna make picks but whatever:


St. Lawrence - 35
Buffalo St - 21

Hobart - 42
Rochester -10

Union - 10
RPI - 42
F Union. F their stupid nickname. F everyone.

Cortland - 35
Ithaca - 24
I'm gonna go crazy here and predict 2 Cortana's this year, and Ithaca wins the second one.

Halftime at Cortaca.  Cortland up 14-6.  Good game so far.  Both teams with some crucial mistakes.  Cortland RB is tough and gets positive yards every play.  Teams starting to adjust on defense so might see a different 2nd half.

Watching the ICTV halftime.  One of the "reporters" straight out said he was routing for Cortland because he "picked" them?  I'm guessing he is a Cortland student that is a special guest on the show?   

Ah never mind the guy just questioned Ithaca's "heart" so he is an IC student.

CORTACA;Cortland looks a tad better than the Bombers today but still anyone's game. Bombers miss Wingfield leadership in this game.14-6
SHOES: RPI really misses Kazanowsky. Chargering Puppies look designed to win the Shoes if their defense keeps it up. I'm thinking McCormack has life to him and we will see a good finish.10-0
HOBART is lucky , so far and Yellowjackets are playing very well on defense and get the ball back after halftime. This is a total nail biter 14-13. Upset totally possible unless Statesmen get kicked in the ass by DeWall at half time and come out and finish the season to their ability.

So Ithaca was down 21-6.  3rd and 4 around the 50 and Ithaca throws a sideline fade for the 2nd time today and misses (first one missed too).  I'm thinking to my self what a joke of a call and then they go for it on 4th and 4 and throw the same play!  But this one connects and then they line up for a WR screen pass for a TD on the next play?!?!  21-13 bombers with 4 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.

Cortland has been moving the ball well though.  They convert on what seems to be every third down.  Zone read is freezing Ithaca defenders just enough that when the ball gets handed off #2 for Cortland is too big and good to be contained for negative yards...

The worst targeting call in the history of targeting calls against Ithaca's best defender.  Late hit would have been a bad call.....Anyway Cortland scores again and goes up 28-13.  Ithaca can't stop them.  I'm sure they will be getting 2-3 big make up calls but I'm not sure it will matter.

So Ithaca loses by 10, they have two costly fumbles and Cortland played basically perfect.  I expected at least 2-3 more stops out of Ithaca's defense but they didn't have many 3rd down or 4th down stops when they needed them today.  Boyes was perfect and runs like Wingfield runs.  Not great on specific called runs but once a game Wingfield would pull it on a QB read and take it for 50+ yards and Boyes did that today in the 4th.  Anytime someone was open Boyes hit them unlike other LL QBs this year Ithaca has faced (I'll include JHU and Endicotts QBs as well).  Boyes was another level. 

On the good side Ithaca played tough and Colin Schumm is the real deal.  I saw maybe 2-3 bad throws and some perfect passes in clutch situations.  If IC can land some good WR talent in the future (they had a few frosh this year who stepped up) this could be a tough offense. 

Well hopefully Ithaca goes to Umass Dartmouth this weekend so I can take a nice quick trip!  Would also love to see IC play Cortland again....... 8-)

Congrats to Union on winning the Shoes game. RPI came back , and didn't give up.But without Kazanowskythe  RPI defense had to pick it up more ....but Charging Puppies deserve the win as they persevered. Good luck at selection time for tournament.

Condolences to Ithaca on the loss today. Cortland was very impressive on offense. Good luck to the Bombers in the tournament.

Hobart dodges a bullet and wins game with a 75 yard TD pass with 2 minutes left. Rayshawn Boswell was all over the field and willed the team to a win , but  Colombi made the perfect pass for the win. Congrats to the Yellowjackets.... they played inspired football and almost threw the monkey off their back. Coach Martinovich has got them playing tough hard nosed football....I think the top four will grow to the top 5 next year....great LL season and great league going forward.

SLU saw the predictions that Buffalo State was going to win this one, and it pissed them off . SLU up 23-0 with lots of game left. Nice finish Larries.

Good win for the DUTCHMEN today.  I wouldn't be surprised to see a Red Dragon/Dutchmen game next week.  Probably the best time to play Cortland. 

I've only seen Buff State and SLU play once this year (vs Ithaca) and it was clear as day that St. Lawrence had the better team.  But teams have bad games sometimes so who knows.

Tastes Good! No 12 packs going out in the mail! IC played their asses off and never quit. That freshman QB is good! Put the ball on the money when he had too! Which was a lot! Best of luck next week in the playoffs!

Cortland is a damn good team and Ithaca probably would have had to play near perfect to beat them. They made IC pay for every mistake.

Bummer but onwards to the playoffs.

Boyes was the best player on the field. He's an elite talent and Ithaca had no answer.

I was incredibly impressed by Colin Schumm, who made some big time throws in the second half with the Bombers trailing.

I think IC will end up at like Del Valley in R1

What time is the bracket announced?
