All valid points. Look, Kehoe hasn’t impressed me thus far. Kane and Lee are both good backs and their receivers can get open some. But, their OL has been suspect all season. It’s imperative that our DL wins the battle and allows our LB’s to run downhill and make tackles in the box. Our Safety’s must be on the same page as I would run a lot of zone if the weather is bad. Their DL has not been good most of the year. UD runs a 3-4 , which could be a problem for them in rough weather. I expect them to roll the OLB’s up . They have played a lot of zone so far this season (read & react). I think we spread them out a bit and let Tom wiggle around for some plays. Also, we have that full house package that gives Tom an RPO. Again, gotta win the battle up front to keep their LB’s off balance all game.

24 total teams, 8 seeds (highest seeds host throughout the playoffs). That’s why it’s important to have as high a seed as possible. The NCAA tries tonregionalize the first and second rounds. The FCS poll is being built to help justify the selection committee field next month.

Our resume is as good as anyone’s in the CAA. As noted, it will all play out on the field. TU> Nova>Temple> Cincinnati

Yes, COMBINEDKane and Lee are averaging about 100 yds pergame (3.2 yds per carry). They are averaging about 325 of total offense per game and giving up 328 per game. You have to take into account that they played a horrible Lafayette team and Bad New Hampshire and Cornell clubs.

.....And nobody in the CAA has beaten more ranked teams thus far than Towson

I want the JMU game to be for the CAA championship! However, there’s a long way to go before we can talk about that game. What I saw lfroM Towson last Saturday won’t get us there.....

True

The pollsters do each other favors. The NCAA wants to create regional interest with 1AA FB. A team from the Big South cannot create a strong enough resume during the course of a season. Kennesaw is benefiting from the influence the committee has over the polls. If you rank em high enough early on and they lose 1 game then at 10-1 they look good for a seed and home games with the SoCon.

I don’t think you have done your research. If we aren’t worthy of a top 10 ranking, example, how could Jax State or Kennesaw State be? Kennesaw has 6-1 with a D2 win. None of the teams they played have been ranked or Even have a winning record. Jax State has a similar resume. Our resume is as good or better than anyone else in the top 10.

Let’s also have Deb M personally invite all students to the game this week. She can also send a broadcast email (video message) assuring the students will not be harassed bu SAFE and that tailgating is a go! Have her department fund a large prize( $1000) to be given away at the end of the game. RA can deliver the check to the student in the stands following the playing of the fight song with the team.

Correct on all these points. How can a rogue VP go directly to the media without consulting the Council? All marketing should be focused on the students for the remainder of this season. Students first, alumni and then community. Take the marketing dollars that are being used for the Baltimore community and use that for student $ giveaways.

Unfortunately, you are correct

Agree with you all. However, don’t discount the fact that the CAA and FCS committee don’t want us to get a seed.

100% correct!

Fake poll. Back room phone calls from AD’s to one another to influence the polls. This is an absolute sham and really a disgrace. STATS and NCAA coaches polls are both being influenced by the AD,s. What quality wins does Colgate have? How many top 15 wins does URI have? How many wins over teams with winning records do both teams have.? CAA leaugue office is behind this. Never forget 2012: “Your. losses to FBS top 25 Kent State and #3 LSU cancelled out your 65-35 win (700 yds) against UNH” the day before the selections were made.

True 88,if the AD can’t come up with $6k out of a $27mm budget Wehave bigger problems . Deb Moriarty is to blame here. Single handily has worked to bring down tailgating AtTowson. She made those statements to the press in the middle of the night. Didn’t consult with AD or executive board. Total power grab. Maybe she should be made to fund a student scholarship or $ giveaway out of her budget .

Sorry, I didn’t make myself clear. I was referring to the percentage and overall number of students living on campus. Caret made sure that our profile is as good or better than our peer institutions in terms of on campus student housing.

How about a payday? Giveaway $3000 in cash or offer free tuition for a semester for the students. Force them to come to the game.

Actually TU has about 29% (over 6,300) for 2018/19 . In reality, Your same source shows only 30 percent of JMU students live on campus! With a slightly smaller UG enrollment, JMU has less students on campus than Towson! You do understand JMU is in the middle of nowhere right? Ok, let’s take a look at the granddaddy of them all - Penn State is at 35%. This is not the same old Towson!

See you all at the game tomorrow ! BE THERE !

Seeded teams don’t pay. That’s why it’s important to get a high seed and host as many as possible. Again, way far away.It starts on Saturday at 4pm. Every snap counts !

Agreed that 8-3 will get us in. It’s not about getting in, it’s about getting a high seed. I traveled to those playoff games in 2013, not an easy task. Minimizing travel equates to a better chance at victory. See NDSU One game at a time. One snap at a time. Leave No Doubt!

Based on what? I mean how are you basing the statement you made? If you really look at the weekly polls and results you will see we have a body of work as good as any top 10-15 team. Morgan beat NC A&T , Nova beat Temple, Wake took Ranked BC squad to the end...etc. These polls are fake! Head to head competition is not part of the equation. Also, The Citadel beat Mercer.
