East Region Playoff Discussion

[dlippiel]

dlip is really hoping Albright can step up and give MUC a game. Bottom line, come this time of year, the best rises to the top and the best is simply MUC. Good luck to all the student athletes on Saturday!

  Looking at a HIGH of 32 Saturday in lovely Alliance. Bring your woolies and hand warmers and a gallon of whatever the Montclair fans were drinking

Now, Now, Now Seventies. Wasn't it funny that Jordan never traveled. Most teams coming to Alliance don't have (10) championships under their belts. You guys are The Machine. Your fans are used to watching The Machine. Put yourself in the position of the Montclair fans. I think you get my drift.

I would if I could. Gotta keep those "spirits" high. I've had my share this year. I had to announce for the Mogadore HS Band in a playoff game we were losing 35-0 at the half. It only got worse

My two cents (not sure it is worth that...)

MSU was able to throw the ball effectively at times because their O-line was TREMENDOUS in the first half handling Mount's rush.  Their lineman were athletic, big, and could get out to the corner to handle Mount's two stud D-ends.  That being said, they were just as inept at run blocking, as they were exceptional at pass blocking. 

Mount has pressured everyone they have played this year, so Albright will need to do an exceptional job pass blocking to throw the ball effectively.  Mount is so quick to the football, it's just not a normal timing situation.  I think Rams was correct in saying that you can see it on film, but until you experience it "live and in color" it's just not the same. 

Any Albright fans that are making the trek, you are more than welcome to join some of us that hit the local Mexican restaurant for our now 12 year running "margarita breakfast" before all games.   

In looking at the glass half-full, Delaware Valley was by far the quickest and most athletic team Albright faced all year.  I am sure that there is a noticable difference between DVC and Mount's speed, but at least the Lion's O-Line will have some better context when seeing the Machine.

Well people wanted other fresh teams other than Fisher to take on Mount Union in the playoffs...Results aren't too pretty.

How does that freshly opened can of worms look?

This ****in SUCKS...again the east is done 

****IN SUCKS

Albright just wasn't up to the challenge.  Mount turns the ball over three out of the first four times they have it, and still leads 14-0 after the first quarter.  Albright's QB and wide receiver were quality players, but their defense really couldn't hang. 

Congrats Albright on a great season.........

More like a can of Whoop-A55!

Does it even matter?  Fisher's score this year wasn't any better.  How does this conversation always revert back to Fisher anyway?  Who ****ing cares?

It seems like they'll hold on to that 26-14 LOSS until the end of time...

Ha, yeah PG like no other team ever holds on to their best year in school history.  Besides i was more speaking to the concept of people not wanting Fisher in the playoffs because they wanted other teams to take a crack at the best and see what they can do.  We found out as we always do that no team can do any better than Fisher, and most do worse.  So next year no need to whine about who could potentially represent the East because it's going to end the same way.

MOUNT UNION - BEAST OF THE EAST - AGAIN

Nothing like humility to make us all feel better.
