i am not saying this is or isn't the formula for success but look at Oakland's key contributors. 3 of the top guys have been there 3 or 4 years since day 1. Refreshing to see in this day and age of NCAA and the NIL. Transfers will obviously be a contributing factor but I think having a few "program" guys certainly helps.

Sundance Wicks is coach  of the year from GB.  He has done a complete turn around with the program.   Last to 1st in his 1st year is unreal.   We got some tough games ahead.  PFW is unpredictable in the way they play night in and night out.   Oakland owns the tie breaker with us and is unpredictable as well. Wright St is playing good and a dangerous team.  RMU is coming on as of late too.  League is good and has 7 teams over.  .500.  We got the most victories with 15.  Thoughts??

as you stated, the league seems to much deeper and balanced this year. Not sure if one team stands out amongst the rest. We have as good as shot as any. Will depend on how we are playing come March and if we can put together a string of  games where we play consistently good defense and shoot well. I do worry we dont have that go-to player like Cohil last year. He single handedly won us a few games. Maybe Thompson is that guy but idk. Everyone needs to play solid and together as a unit to win this thing.

Any ideas why?? There is obviously more to this.

That is a solid win. I certainly was not expecting that. Would have been nice not to blow the 27 point lead but you know what, whatever. We beat what looked like the best team in the league last night. ESPN game Friday!! Lets go!!

Lol I enjoy both football and basketball. I will say though, an NCAA tournament birth is much more meaningful than an FCS football championship. The FCS is completely irrelevant. Playing in the MAC is better then a pointless FCS.

Wudke to Kansas

Mudclods I agree with your analysis but we do have the potential to win the league again if we can get the 3 pointers to fall.  Unlimited potential and the team hasn't played a full game to their capabilities.   Scary.

Top 3 for sure and certainly potential to win it all. What's up with PFW?  They seem like the team to beat based on their record thus far.

I just looked up the Albany-Villanova game. Villanova had five turnovers; Albany had none.

As others have noted, Villanova is the only CAA team that has the size and strength up front to compete in the MVFC. With James Madison and Delaware now gone, the CAA has become Villanova and the (fill-in the blank) dwarfs.

The CAA joins the Southern Conference, once the home of multiple championship teams Georgia Southern, Marshall, and Appalachian State, as a second rate FCS conference.

As we remain an irrelevant program in the irrelevant FCS.

Obviously Defense and O-Line needs a boost but we all know the QB is the biggest and most important ? right now. Brungard doesnt seem to be the answer, at least IMO. What about the two other frosh on the team. Max Blanc and Schondelmyer? I thought these two were more prolific recruits than Beau.

Hopefully we can bring a guy in from the portal that gives us another option.

I think we will be ok at WR. Tomzack, Fordham and Farthing seem like a solid returning trio. Does Charleston have another year?

I think even if King cant return we may have some guys who will step up. I think Cephus Harris, Willie Edmunds and Kayden Davis were pretty decent recruits in their class who have some potential.

2-0 to start horizon league play against a solid CSU team and on the road vs RMU who has given us problems in the past. Have to be pretty happy about this! Hopefully they can pick up some solid non-conference wins against OU, WMU, or Navy.

To anyone with influence reading ... For Saturday and all home games

Blacks Pants
Red Jersey's
Traditional "Y" helmet (no bird).

Nooooo the Pete helmet needs to be here to stay. I’ll never understand the hate. It’s one of the best helmets in the NCAA

Would really hope for 12k+ for first playoff game in 7 years but holiday weekend with less students in town does not help. Dukes will bring a decent fan base I would assume.

YSU 38-21 my prediction

To be fair, Lake Erie is D2 and they only lost to Utah Tech by 12 on Saturday, but the nonetheless that should have easily been a 30-40 point victory.

A lot better energy the 2nd half, but this team needs to learn how to play a 40-minute game.  They really were bailed out the last 2 games by bench players in Bates on Friday & Lovelace on Sunday. 

Not really sure what to think about this team after 5 games.  Looks like Burns is a pretty consistent player and hopefully can be a force all season. Need more out of Rush as he just can't get going.  Take out his 32-point game that he basically played the entire game against NAIA Ohio Christian and he's averaging under 9 a game.  Some other guys are going to have to step up.

Coach Calhoun really seems frustrated.  He said if he was going to rebuild he would have taken a job elsewhere so you have to go out and get seniors.  Tough stretch coming up with Dayton, CSU, RMU & Ohio.

Thanks for correction. Was thinking they were D3. But still, 30-40 win is right but only losing to UT Tech puts into interesting perspective too. The games you mentioned against Dayton, CSU, RMU & Ohio will be very telling of what this team will be.
