Albany vs. Colgate

[Dane96]

Albany capitalizes on a rare QB miscue out of Colgate. Osbourne 3 yard TD.

Albany 7
Colgate 0

13:48 left in the 1st Qtr.

[Dane96]

McCarney drives the 'Gate down the field but makes a terrible decision to extend the ball out near the goal line and fumbles for a Touchback.

[TheDHC]

Got a link?

[Dane96]

Albany manhandling the 'Gate's defense. They seem to be on a mission. That said, the 'Gate did the same on offense.

[Dane96]

Frosh Nic Ketter drops a wide open ball in the flat....grumble!!!

[Dane96]

What a TERRIBLE call. Bull**** pass INT...on the offense...and 'Gate's DB had his hands up on and in the face of King with his back to the ball. Weak call takes away a UA TD.

[Dane96]

Albany with the 32 yd FG.

Albany 10
Colgate 0

Late 1st Qtr.

[TheDHC]

2 TD's overturned by penalty calls..

[TheValleyRaider]

Figured there was a thread on this.

'Gate has no answer right now for Albany's run game. Bad turnover on the other end, but just unlucky. Still, have to come up with some points

[TheDHC]

Wilkins running the ball down our throats
*groan

[Dane96]

Albany also has no answer for the 'Gate's run game. Our D-Line getting absolutely manhandled.

1 minute to go in the 1st qtr.

[TheValleyRaider]

Nice running by Wilkins, looking like the RB for the future

Gotta come up with some kind of defensive stop

End 1st

Side note: it appears we're all going to get an earful from the defensive coaches during the broadcast

Ua on defense this season is a train wreck

That's what happens when you replace your linebackers.

What happened to dillan romain?

[TheValleyRaider]

Turnovers and bad tackling are killing us tonight. Cannot let a guy run through arm-tackles like that

Hopefully Wilkins is alright

[Dane96]

Big hit by the Danes on Wilkins who fumbles.

Three plays later, Fiacchi with the strike to Kevin Chillis for a 51 yd touchdown.

Middle of the 2nd Qtr.

Jameel Gay for the Danes and Wilkins for Colgate off with injuries.

[Dane96]

Colgate (with a block in the back) ;) get's the nice return. Wilkins is being iced.

[Dane96]

Man...the RT for Colgate is holding on nearly EVERY play.

Wilkins day over...crutches/ice. Good player!

[Dane96]

Much different Albany team this week...

[Dane96]

Osbourne just destroying people...and the O-Line just opening huge holes. Fiacchi managing game well.

[clickclack]

Much different Albany team this week...

Offensively look very good... Defense much better in the second half...

Colgate stops Osbourne...his shoe came off. Seriously. But Pressley Beauveis with the 6 yard TD. 92 yard drive for the Danes who are just opening it up.

Colgate 7

2:44 to go in the 1st half.

[TheValleyRaider]

TOP difference sure looks like it's taking effect as the defense can't get any traction. Need a score before the half, figure out some kind of adjustments

[TheValleyRaider]

Big TD right before the half, some great sideline throws and catches down the field. Definitely not out of this one

[Dane96]

Yes...that was a big time drive to get back into this game.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

C'mon Gate! Need to find a way!

Halftime

[Dane96]

630 combined yards of offense in this one.

At half,

[clickclack]

Albany either turns them over or gives up 20 yards... 4 turnovers and only up 10...dont like it.

[Gater]

Colgate with 354 yards of offense in the first half and 14 points.
4 turnovers is the game at this point. Colgate really needs a stop to start the second half. Good game.

[TheValleyRaider]

Defense played better, but too many 3rd down (especially 3rd and long) conversions. Defense really keyed in on the run

[Dane96]

Albany picks up where it left off at the half.

Osbourne with a 10 yd. touchdown run but XP is missed.

Albany 30
Colgate 14

[Dane96]

Osbourne on pace to crush 200 yards right now.

23 carries for 161 yds so far. Averaging 7 a carry.

[Lehigh'98]

Big game for both teams. Had a feeling Albany would be a different team this week. These are the kind of losses that really hurt the P. League. Lehigh had a huge comeback today, maybe Gate will have some of the same magic.

[TheValleyRaider]

Great run from DiCicco, I'd really like to see him used a bit more at TB

2-pt attempt failed, but if we can force another 3-and-out...

[TheValleyRaider]

3rd and goal on the 1 for Colgate to start the 4th

Punch it in!

Punched in, 3-pt game

Osbourne stopped on 4th down!

[TheValleyRaider]

Huge play coming here: 4th and goal inside the 1 for Colgate, 4:31 to play, 30-27 Albany

[TheValleyRaider]

Didn't make it, Russell tackled at the 1

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Fordham beat Nova...

tough,need a stop

[RichH2]

Danes running inside getting tough yds moving slowly away from endzone

[RichH2]

big run for Danes. Close to being able to run out clock

[RichH2]

Dont need to TD Albany. Gate cant stop run

[TheValleyRaider]

Osbourne a bit run on 3rd and game, and Beauvais (sp?) finishes it off. 92 and 99 yard TD drives tonight for Albany

Tough loss for Gate. I don't understand OOC troubles. And it doesn't get easier....

[TheValleyRaider]

Russell runs it in, just mathematical?

37-34 Albany
0:18

[Lehigh'98]

Turnovers don't help the cause much. Gotta give Albany credit though, Hamilton is a tough place to get a W.

[TheValleyRaider]

Albany 37
Colgate 27
Final

4 turnovers way too many. Got too far behind. Game effort to get back, but just too far.

Hopefully Wilkins isn't too seriously hurt. Russell got better as he got comfortable, but Wilkins gives them a bit more physicality (just might have scored on the 4th and 1). It doesn't get easier with a trip to New Hampshire next

Osbourne looks like a full-grown man. If Fiacchi can be more efficient, they'll be a tough out. Good luck to the Danes in CAA play

Albany makes huge goal line stand with four minutes left to win it. Colgate/Albany has become a really good series--good for central New York. Hope Mr. Ford wins a bunch more games this year. I like the amount of respect he and Biddle have for each other.

[Kramden]

Gate has to make plays on defense. They just seem like they will not be able to stop any playmakers.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Tough one, Gaters. What was the attendance?

Tough one, Gaters. What was the attendance?

Looked terrible on TV...I'd say about 75% empty...could have been the weather though, it poured.

[Seawolf97]

Nice bounce back win for the Danes on the road !

[UAalum72]

Looked terrible on TV...I'd say about 75% empty...could have been the weather though, it poured.
Box score listed an imaginative 5,217, which would be more than half, but it wasn't. Though cool and cloudy, the 'rain' didn't classify even as much as a drizzle until the fourth quarter.

[aceinthehole]

Nice bounce back win for the Danes on the road !

Agreed. Nice win UA.

[Go...gate]

Congratulations to Albany. This is turning into a great series.

[danefan]

Congratulations to Albany. This is turning into a great series.

Agreed. I'm hoping it continues in perpetuity. It's going to be a recruiting battle for years to come. Settle it on the field early September every year! Hopefully a rematch in December.
