Intriguing CAA - PL match-up.

[Gater]

Feed looks great. Audio on graphics is incredibly loud.

[RichH2]

Any one else getting constant buffering?

[Bogus Megapardus]

Working great for me. Both teams going with no-huddle from the get-go.

[Pard4Life]

Looks great.. feed looks more HD that Pards live TV feed and definetely better than our online feed.

The clock camera is hilariously bad.

INT Fordham... great pick.

[Pard4Life]

TD Fordham, 14-0

Rams look like 2000 St. Louis Rams... yikes.

[RichH2]

Switched computers fine now, FU routing URI

[DFW HOYA]

Maybe I had higher expectations, but this looks like nothing more than the same one camera Fordham feed from last year with a WFUV radio feed simulcast.

No other graphics or commercials, and the video quality is anything but HD.

Cmon Hoya! It's the first day of college football!

My feed looks crystal clear.

FU student radio is pretty good.

And yes graphics are hilariously inadequete.

[Pard4Life]

Rams look very good... how will Pards stop this offense?

[RichH2]

URI is ver y bad but Fordham lookes like the real deal.Moorhead ha coached them up very well.

[Pard4Life]

Color commentator dicussing the view and debating bridges they can see.. oye xlolx

[Fordham]

You guys need me to say something to the camera crew for you? I'm sitting right in front of them

"Let LSN broadcast from Georgetown!"

[RichH2]

Its the commentators,Camera guy fine.

[Pard4Life]

Actually, say "I'd like you to wish a happy birthday to a friend of mine, Mr. Carney, who is watching, on air." :D

[Pard4Life]

Both teams had nearly 400 yards offense combined with 5min to go... probably over that now, just before half.

RB Koonce is a machine... has to be over 100, close to 150 now.

[Pard4Life]

HALF.. FU 24, URI 3

FU 216 - 162 total yards

[Bogus Megapardus]

Fordham has some talent for sure.

[RichH2]

Does seem FU still has weak D

[Bogus Megapardus]

Maybe I had higher expectations, but this looks like nothing more than the same one camera Fordham feed from last year with a WFUV radio feed simulcast. No other graphics or commercials, and the video quality is anything but HD. The release said that TV quality broadcasts will begin in 2014.

[Pard4Life]

Does seem FU still has weak D

Yeah... definetely beatable... then again, look what Colgate did last year.

[Pard4Life]

Monmouth 1, Lehigh 0, 6:30 to go, women's soccer :D

[Seawolf97]

Hopefully URI plays like this on 9/7 .

[Pard4Life]

Hopefully URI plays like this on 9/7 .

Likely. URI looks really bad... they just gave up a bad TD on 3rd and 1, 49yrd TD pass... FU reciever deked and slipped by defender for 10 yrds into the endzone.

[RichH2]

Yup,P4L Gate won it all w shaky D,FU not much different altho Gate O not as good this yr..Bit overloade watching NYJ and NYG and FU and Towson Wife threatening to brick me into the den until Spring

[DFW HOYA]

The release said that TV quality broadcasts will begin in 2014.

Didn't see that, thanks.

[Gater]

Fordham wins 51-26. RI outgained Fordham by 8 yards but gave up huge plays on D, averaged 22 yards a punt on 7 punts and dropped most every kickoff. The difference (to me) felt like coaching. Good win for Fordham and good start for Patriot League.

[RichH2]

Surprisingly unimpressed with FU as a team.Imagine they will improve. Very similar to prior yrs,lots of individual talent and big plays. D, still specializes in the Chinese fire drill,lots of running around but little D and poor tackling. No matter how you view it URI very bad.

[Ivytalk]

Congrats to Fordham for a strong opening win.

[Brad82]

Gater-nice wrap up.
Rhody is disorganized and dysfunctional.

[Fordham]

Yep. URI very bad. Our O is going to be tremendous again. The D, though .... 'ugh'. The only thing I disagree with is the Chinese fire drill comment - implies that they're poorly coached imo. I just think we are woefully undersized. When URI finally figured out that they just need to pound it up the gut, they had success. Why it took them so long to realize that and why they couldn't keep doing it, I don't know.

Fwiw, our LB's and Secondary are very solid imo. It's our DL. Very, very small.

[Bogus Megapardus]

Anyone know if the PL network will let us watch replays? I think more than a few of us would like to start/stop the feed and take a second look at how Fordham put up 51 points on a CAA team.

That's a CAAINO team.

I was watching the game on and off and right after the game I was able to rewind the live feed to the very beginning to watch parts I had missed, so I know for a fact the technology is there. This AM it was not available, but the PL did make a 2 minute highlight reel of the game available:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wSXeokkz0jE&feature=youtu.be

Did I see Wetzel stiff-arm a Rhody defender that had about a foot on him?

It's not amazing that Fordham put up 51 on Rhody's undermanned defense. It's amazing that URI put up 26 on Fordham's defense.

[RichH2]

Moorhead and staff ae very good.As evidenced by level of play by team. BUt problem on D not just DL. LBs and DBs quick and athletic but took themselves out of plays repeatedly. Very poor tackling. A good team will esily keep FU's potent O off the field for long stretches. Talent is there but production on D is not.

[URMite]

You mean a CAA team that last won a CAA game (or any game) in Nov 2011?
Maybe Fordham remembered one of URI's three wins in 2011...

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

I'm really looking forward to the Fordham vs Villanova game next week. I think the Rams will make it very interesting. 'Nova's defense will likely be the difference though....

[Go...gate]

Monmouth 1, Lehigh 0, 6:30 to go, women's soccer :D

Did Femovich sneak Monmouth into the PL this week?
