FB: Old Dominion Athletic Conference

[hscathletics]

Live stats a full play ahead of the video/audio. Nice to know when I need to cheer and when I need to throw my hat ahead of time...

And that's pretty much the way it's going to be no matter what when it comes to watching games on the internet. Video = slower than text. It's going to be that way even if you are watching a game on WatchESPN.

Yeah. My original complaint was the way the screen pixelated every play. It cleaned up midway through the 3rd quarter thankfully.

Obviously can't say with 100% certainty, but most likely it was your internet connection. I had it up on my computer the whole game (to make sure it was working) and it looked pretty clear the whole time to me, and Boxcast didn't report any problems to us. We were hooked up through an ethernet connection so theoretically our connection speed should have been pretty consistent throughout the game.

Great game today at HSC. Obviously I'm very disappointed in the loss.  EH and WL are both 2/0 in ODAC but WL's wins over GC and HSC put them in the drivers seat. Some how WL needs to lose 2 games of their next 5 and HSC has to win out for the Tigers to win ODAC. I think the Tiger's best hopes for a 3peat lie in a tie situation. I just don't see WL losing 2 games going out. Congrats to the Generals for another big win.

I bet you tasted vomit in the back of your mouth after typing that last sentence?

Not after that sentence but rather after WL completed a 40 bomb on 3-10 on their game winning drive.

Eh. We were just setting up the play action the whole game. Very entertaining game. No quarter given by those two.

Well Hasa. I was hoping your Quakes start the slaughtering again. If they go 9-1; could they get in with not winning the conference? Of course the best outcome would be a 9-1 record with a 8-2 by the bow tie and cheese boys. While I personally like the atmosphere and the urbane nature of the W&L campus and their properly attired coeds (no hippies) I still hope for your football salvation.

I guess that is a paradox of sorts but Duke scoring more today against Army then they did in their first b-ball scrimmage is one too.  . Oh who cares. Good luck POPs

I'd be shocked to see a 9-1 and 2nd ODAC Quaker team getting into playoffs based on their OOC schedule.  I don't think that will happen.

So I can assume that if GC-Q goes on a rip and goes 9-1 and the Bow Ties go 10-0 or 9-1 there will not be a chance for both of them. Correct?  ANybody think this is  not feasible. My Uncle Vito is not happy when I go below the VEG.

It's going to depend on what everyone else nationally does. Too soon to say for sure. Guilford's SOS is below .500 now but that will change, significantly so in Weeks 10 and 11.

After 2 ODAC games, SU's defense is very suspect in giving up an average of 47 points.

Looks to be a 5-5 season for the Hornets or if they slip up 4-6.

Hard to spot a good team 14 points on TO's the first two possessions of the game and win.....even though the Tigers almost pulled it off. Question......no doubt Kounce is a great back but when was the last time a H-S team ran the ball 4 plays in a row? (other than killing the clock after the game decided) Not a criticism......just an observation.

W&L's highlight package from the game yesterday, though it does include the two ridiculous catches H-SC receivers made. Including the early score.

https://youtu.be/eEvfFzjvJU0

The goal line stand to end the game, all 4 plays, end the video. You can see how close Koonce got when he went to the outside. One guy to beat or just a stumbling step forward and he is in. You can also see the way W&L's d-line ran over H-SC's offensive line on the inside hand off 4th down. Every d-lineman seemed to get penetration up the middle and Koonce was screwed pretty much from the snap.

As far as I know the ODAC has only had 1 at large team. That was HSC in 2010. They beat Salisbury at their place.  GC is in the same boat as HSC. They have to win out and hope WL losses 2 or have WL lose 1 and get into a tie situation.

W&L came close to the D3football top 25. They needed 8 more points this week. Here's hoping they keep the intensity up next week at RMC and can garner a few more.

Guilford would need some help. They would need a Regionally Ranked win or two somewhere I think. Going 0-1 (assuming W&L goes undefeated) probably isn't going to do it. Peril of a weak @ss OOC schedule. W&L has the same problem if they don't get the AQ. In the national thread Wally Wabash and some of the other guys keep a running tally of who is still legitimately alive for Pool C bids. Check it out if you are interested but I'd say the ODAC OOCs pretty much kill any team left with the chance of going 9-1.

Congrats on the win. Fun game to watch ... outcome hard to swallow. First quarter and fourth quarter killed us, two to's in first, missing field goal & goal line stand in fourth. W&L stepped it up when they had to. I'll not watch the video, I'll just assume your d'line did it's job on the goal line. Again congrats on a job well done.

Tigers need to win out and hope for some help along the way and pray for another crazy odac finish. E&H next up, will not be easy, but certainly a game we can win. Another game where I think each team will score on the other, so it could come down to which team stops the other late in fourth quarter. Hopefully that goes our way this week.

Jk, this week will be the first time in my life I'll pull for a RMC victory !!!!

ODAC could have a 9-1 EH, a 9-1 WL, and an 8-2 and 7-3 HSC/GC. If that scenario played out I think WL might have a shot. But it would still be a long one. Then again everyone could finish 5/5. Who knows what will happen. No one thought WL would be 5-0/2-0 at this point in season but the deservedly are.

HSC had three huge plays on Saturday that did not go their way- the interception on the initial drive returned to the 8, allowing WL to complete the 40 yard pass on their last drive when for the first time all game EVERYONE new they were throwing it, and finally the stop on 4th and goal. If any one of those three plays go HSC's way they might win the game. But they didn't.

I bet that in the history of all footbal games ever played that the team with over 350 passing and over 150 rushing and only has 1 more turnover than the other wins the game 95% of the time. HSC gave WL their best effort of the season the other day and came up short. Nothing to hang their heads about. WL made they plays that made the difference. Really was a great game.

I don't blame you, but you should try and find the highlights of those two ridiculous catches by H-SC receivers, especially the early tipped touchdown. Something special to see. My point in bringing up the final series was that Koonce wasn't to blame for not getting in. He had a fabulous game and got unlucky on the 3rd down to the outside not falling forward and the 4th down play there was nothing he could do.

[HSCTiger fan]

Boy was I wrong SU had 450 passing and over 150 rushing had equal turnovers and had 8 more first downs to GC and STILL lost. I guess the only formula for victory is the scoreboard.
