Completely predictable. Players leave the sheltered and closely monitored team environment and go home for the holidays. A few return infected and wipe out large segments of their team.
I am quite sure that the Horizon League will adjust the policy and declare this game as a "no contest." That is fine with us. Our odds of winning in Detroit were not high. So no losses with the first three road games in the books. I will take that.
Yep...I would have bet money this was going to happen with the Detroit game; would have rather it happened with Oakland though. Even though I think YSU could have beat Detroit, it's a team YSU has struggled with. Outside of the 3 straight wins in 2019-2020, YSU has only beaten Detroit in 2011 & 2014 going back to December 31, 2009. YSU has lost 23 of the last 28 to Detroit.
Defiance is a D3 school and their record is 4-6. They've played 2 D1 games losing by 52 to Miami (OH) & by 49 to Bellarmine. Lost to PSU Shenango by 4...yikes. They have won their last 3 non D1 games.
