I’ll be at the Oktoberfest party at the Ravens parking lot so won’t be at Johnny U. Looks like another beautiful weekend weather wise. Hope lots of folks make the trip to Towson to see the boys play. I’m nervous but excited for what Saturday at 4 May bring. Is this Rhode Island team legit or is this the same squad we normally beat? Can we spoil their perfect record? We need to play sharp, disciplined, fast, physical towson football to secure a much needed W. Love Coby Tippett but will be sour to see him in a different uni. He looks like he is a big part of their team and it’s good to see him succeed but wish he had stayed here.

I'm nervous too.  The kind of feeling that I was way too hard on the team for how the NDSU game played out.  But very apprehensive about being overly optimistic and getting my hopes up.

I know all too well the feeling of dashed hopes at the hands of a team like URI.  It leaves a bad bad taste in your mouth.

 

That said, I'll be there.  I can't stand Rhody, one of the only schools I never got revenge on for early career losses.  Maybe the only one.

My feeling last week was that we needed to win to assure ourselves that this season was not going to be a complete disaster. It was not exactly a convincing way to do that, but I feel like we have at least a couple of more wins in us this year (I would say at least 4). A win this weekend would let me to believe we can be a middle of the pack conference team and grab 5-6 wins this year. More importantly, it would set us up to have some bigger aspirations for the year.

This arguably could be our toughest remaining home game, and if we have any desire to have a quality season I think we need to win all of those games (Albany and Elon remaining). If we can hold serve (for lack of a better term) at home, then we can see what we can accomplish on the road.

Our earlier games against New Hampshire and San Diego State had their moments, but overall were not pretty and gave us a lot to build from. Same last week, but the important part is we found a way to win. I feel we will face a similar type of game this week. Hopefully we can limit the dumb penalties. not turn the ball over and do just enough on offense to give ourselves a chance to win. I know that is about as cliche as possible, but it is true.
