I had to go check this out and yes, you guys are #2 in passing defense giving up just 149 yards per game. But if you look at your schedule, you really only played one decent passing team which was JMU where Schor threw for 285 and 3 touchdowns and they put up 47 points on you. In fact, JMU and Richmond are the only two CAA teams in the top 50 in FCS passing offense and you avoided playing the 3rd best CAA passing team in Maine. Not at all saying the Spiders aren't great in passing D so it will be an interesting matchup to watch.

I like the way our defense is playing. Even without All Big Sky lb, Miquiyah Zamora we were able to hold the nation's #24 offense scoreless for the last 35 minutes and to just 75 yards of offense in the 2nd half. In other words, I think we can win slug fests if we need to.

Agree with one of the posts that Richmond is playing with house money. Kevin Johnson is impressive and if he stays loose and continues to let er rip, things could be very interesting next week.

Agreed. We have some good players in our defensive backfield but we haven't been tested like EWU will. In candor, this is probably the last matchup i would have wanted for us, if only because there is so much bad quarterbacking in the CAA.

Richmond is going to need to be about +2 in turnover margin to win this game. Just calling it like i see it.

Youre right about all of this. Obviously EWU will be the favorite, and likely by a touchdown or so. Our DBs are great, but like every other area, they have been ravaged by injuries. It's gonna be tough for sure.

To the point about Schor: you are right that he beat us up. A lot of that is that he runs so well (which i was very wrong about going into that game). He kept our D on its heels. How does EW's QB run?

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

What is the EWU injury situation? I saw someone reference the Eagles being banged up on another thread.

[F'N Hawks]

After what I saw yesterday Richmond will be able to run and score some points on EWU. But their secondary is going to get torched. EWU has three guys better than Mercer and he was too much for Richmond. Spiders better not sit in that zone all day vs. EWU, either.

[kalm]

Gubrud is a legit dual threat. He's now rushed for over 700 yards and 5 TD's. he's the team's leading rusher.

We struggled with red zone offense yesterday and have a tendency to start slow so. Those are things that UR might capitalize on. Plus, Gubrud is still a sophomore and the pressure builds each week.

[seattlespider]

I am currently trying to coordinate how I can make it out to Cheney from Seattle for the game, AND be able to watch the Sounders in MLS Cup. I've been out to Cheney once back in like 1999 or something like that. There was one bar by the stadium. Can't remember what it was called.

[Stonewall D]

These games only come around once in a generation. If you don't go, you will regret it.

Very banged up, especially at LB.

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

Very banged up, especially at LB.

How is the Eags' defensive line?

[TheKingpin28]

If UR does not spy Gubrud, this game will be over fast. That guy is the best all-around FCS QB this season and it is not even close*. He finds a way to burn you through the air or the ground depending on what he alone wants to do. If you send 4 all game, he will burn you on the ground. If you send 5-6, he will beat you with his 50/50 balls (more like 90/10 iirc). If you spy him, he will check down and burn you through your zone.

If you want to beat him, you got to get in his head and fast. If you do not, it will be a straight up track meet, and those usually do not bode well for any team facing EWU.

[andthehomeofthe-BIZON-]

I agree with POD. EWU wins by 2 scores at least. Unless EWU is way more banged up than I know, or weather conditions dictate a lower scoring game, I just don't see the Spiders hanging.

This. Also, we can absolutely score with them. A passing team is what we want to see. Im not saying we will win, but this is not an awful match-up.

Just went through some of Richmond's stats. That #2 in the nation in passing yards allowed is impressive.

However, looking through the schedule, only one team out of the entire schedule (playoffs included) was a top 50 passing team. That was James Madison who won, passed above their average yardage, and was only #36 in passing offense this year. EWU will be on another level of offense that the Richmond Spiders haven't come close to facing this year.

Can't look past that #2 in passing yards allowed, though. That title doesn't come from a second rate secondary. Both teams will be challenged in this department.

Tough travel week for the Spiders. Eagles should win big in this one.

Serious question...have you been correct even once with your picks? xlolx

[Red & Black]

How is the Eags' defensive line?

That unit is healthy for the most part...a couple injuries here and there. They've got a 1st team all-conference defensive tackle (6'4, 315) playing on the interior, and a 1st team all-conference DE that can really get after folks in the pass rush.

The much bigger concern is we have three starting linebackers out. We're playing a true Sophomore (Kupp's brother) and a true Freshman at this point.

Thanks. I'm someone that tends to believe that if you want to be weak in a particular position group, linebacker is the place you want to be weak.

Does the All Conference DE typically line up on the right or left side of the line? (Righty QB's blind side?)

[Daytripper]

Has there ever been an easier path from the quarters to the finals than EWU has this season?

[clawman]

This. Also, we can absolutely score with them. A passing team is what we want to see. Im not saying we will win, but this is not an awful match-up.
What aspect of your defense do you feel is best against passing teams? D-line? D-backs? D ends?

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

Has there ever been an easier path from the quarters to the finals than EWU has this season?

Has there ever been an easier path from Spring ball to the Quarterfinals of the playoffs than Sam State this season?

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

What aspect of your defense do you feel is best against passing teams? D-line? D-backs? D ends?

IMO, the best thing about our defense against a passing team is the versatility of our LB'ers and 'rovers'. 29 Rubin, 24 Norris, 26 Moore, 41 Gregory, 23 Hodge, 46 Howard are all very versatile players against pass and run. We also have 3 pretty good safeties and 2 solid corners.

The best player on the defense is 98 Winston Craig.

[Daytripper]

Has there ever been an easier path from Spring ball to the Quarterfinals of the playoffs than Sam State this season?

The fact that you didn't answer the original question tells me "no."

[Stonewall D]

Has there ever been an easier path from Spring ball to the Quarterfinals of the playoffs than Sam State this season?
Ouch. Now it goes through Harrisonburg.

[Eight Legger]

If we win this game, I might be willing to say that it would be our most impressive postseason run ever – including our national title and our other semifinal years. This team should not still be standing, given all these injuries to our key players. Candidly, I'm amazed at what we've done with a third-string running back and a third- or fourth-string QB these past two weeks (depending how you want to classify Johnson). I fear this is the game we'll finally REALLY miss our All-American safety, David Jones. We're a bit undersized in the secondary now, and that probably does not bode well against EWU. Jones gave us some size back there and had a knack for finding the ball.

On top of the injuries and everything else, two back-to-back trips like these, coupled with no bye...it just feels like a bunch of things that are due to catch up with us soon. I really wish we could have played EWU with a few of our injured guys healthy, because I think it would be a helluva game. Maybe it still will be. Johnson gives us a dual threat option that Lauletta did not, and maybe that is enough to make up for some of the other missing pieces. I guess we'll see.

Sounds like it could be a snowy game. Gotta think that helps us if so!

[dudeitsaid]

Thanks. I'm someone that tends to believe that if you want to be weak in a particular position group, linebacker is the place you want to be weak.

Does the All Conference DE typically line up on the right or left side of the line? (Righty QB's blind side?)

No need to worry about the EWU defense...just look up the stats. At the end of the regular season, EWU was 105 of 122 FCS teams in total defense.

And yes, we have four first team all conference players on defense, but since we don't play defense in the BSC, and we are just offensive football junkies, defensive awards are pretty much symbolic gestures for the top overall teams in the Big Sky conference.

Please pass this info on to your coaches. No need to review game film on the EWU D, they are not a concern. xsmiley_wix

Richmond is just like they were last year, minus Lauletta (not that they're missing him apparently). I'll believe they'll lose when I see it.

I think EWU has the worst ranked defense of the remaining playoff field? That will be something Richmond will exploit and unfortunately, I see the Spiders winning and hosting a home playoff semifinal. If UR wins this week, they're going to Frisco. Ugh.

We've given up 17, 16, 21, 17, 28 and 14 points over the last 6 games. That's less points than Richmond over the same stretch and against better offenses. The 14 we gave up against UCA included 244 yards and that was against the #24 ranked offense in FCS. Stats can be misleading.

Richmond's DB's are in trouble. They are stiff in the secondary. UND was running around with two true freshman and a transfer in a run-first offense and still had 211 yards. Oh, and they dropped around 7-8 passes from what I could remember. The only thing that can save them is their offense controlling the tempo and the weather.

Thanks for the love, but I don't know that we are better right now than we were heading into the Illinois State game last year. We were a lot healthier then. I guess this year, maybe we have a different attitude given everything that's happened the past few weeks and really all season with injuries, so maybe that counts for something.

But even if we win, I doubt we'd host over Youngstown. If Wofford wins, maybe our bid was higher than theirs. Hope to have a chance to find that out!

[Hanca]

Agree that our worthless administration did not offer more than minimum. UR on road for as long as magic continues.

[tomq04]

I have to wonder what kind of team it will take to get through 2 Kupp's that want to win this championship badly.

Ketner Kupp is playin his balls off filling in for our 2 downed starting linebackers, and Coop didn't drop a ball despite being short an arm.

That kid is something else, nothing short of inspirational.

Don't you guys have 19 injured players that are out? which includes 6-7 starters? I am thrilled you have done so well. I hope you guys win this weekend, it will be a tough task

[spdram]

Thanks for the support 18, its hard to say exact numbers because of the way things are reported. I believe the last actual list I saw was 9 starters gone for the season. I do believe this team had a true shot at a NC, and still may have, but the injuries have truly impacted the team. This team has truly been resilient. EWU will definitely be a tough out, they are very good, but with what this team has done this year I don't discount the Spiders at all.

[Eight Legger]

We're playing with our third-string RB and third-string QB. The healthiest part of our team is our receiving corps, which has been great all year (and really for several years). Our new QB has shown an ability to get the ball to them, which has kept that part of our attack intact. Honestly, I am not too worried about our ability to score points, but I am very concerned about our defense in this game. The D has been banged up and is missing some key ingredients. We're going to have to find a way to cause a few turnovers to stay in this one, IMO.

[Matt]

To clarify my earlier posts: im not THRILLED about the match-up or questioning that we should probably be fairly significant underdogs. This could be a long day. I'm just saying that of the remaining destinations for us, other than Harrisonburg this is the one I would've picked. A passing team who can be scored on gives us an OK shot. Yes, we are probably ****ed without Jordan and especially Jones. But any given saturday...

[jmu007]

I haven't seen anything yet to make me want to reconsider my stance on the Big Sky this year. I'm going with the Spiders to keep the training rolling.

I'm thinking lower than expected score and Richmond's defensive line will be the difference in this game. We shall see Saturday afternoon. Good luck Spiders!

[Spider from the North]

EWU is likely to win, but not because the Spiders are overrated. There are many other factors at play including the talent at EWU, the number of injuries sustained by UR this year, and the travel on successive weekends across the country to play at the home stadium of an opponent in a much colder environment.
That said, an EWU win over Richmond, however great the margin, will be less remarkable than the whipping JMU puts on you.

First, make sure the spiders take their migraine/seizure medicine. Then invest in red filter sports goggles for everybody so they don't lose the ewu players in the field background. Then pray very hard.

Lol, however you'd like to compare my friend. I figured you for a government worker.... we can compare our states economies and get a pretty good picture of where we stack up.

[Spider from the North]

Lol, however you'd like to compare my friend. I figured you for a government worker.... we can compare our states economies and get a pretty good picture of where we stack up.

So your assumption in the foregoing statement referring to earlier posts of yours suggesting a comparison of the W-2s of Sammy State grads to those of UR grads as a determinant as to whom has the greater income is that the Texas economy is based entirely upon the jobs and income of Sammy State grads?

Please help me out here with how that works. I have no doubt that there is some correlation, but I am struggling to find it.

[Sam_Kats]

North Spider - you're taking yourself too seriously...

I suppose that I could stick to the original theme and comparison and suggest that my compound with its main residence consisting of a three story, 5,600 square foot mansion and four auxiliary buildings, one of which is situated on 5 wooded acres, 25,000 acre animal sanctuary located adjacent to a national park, 4 healthy children, all gifted, beautiful wife, new Mercedes and Jaguar, summer home on Martha's Vinyard adjacent to the Kennedy compound and new executive position at Wells-Fargo, replacing, in duties, those of the recently ousted John Stumpf, might "out do" your buddy, but I won't do that because that would be ignoring much of what is truly important in life, to-wit; the fact that Sam Houston State has the weakest schedule in FCS football and the beating that JMU is about to exact upon them this coming weekend will demonstrate that beyond any doubt.

Of course, I remain puzzled, as apparently do you, as to the correlation that BNATION implied when he suggested that I compare the Texas economy to that of the Commonwealth of Virginia as a justification of the value of a Sammy degree. I guess I will have to live with that because your non-responsive response sheds no light on that statement or otherwise demonstrates anything relevant to our previous banter. I have no doubt that the correlation is beyond my comprehension...and your imagination.

Nice to see a little CAA smack!

Yes, Weber and CP looked like crap in their games. UND played their brand of football for 3 quarters but let one slip away with some great plays made by the Spiders late in the game. One might chalk that up to an advantage in playoff and big game experience for Richmond. The teams appeared to be evenly matched, but if Richmond is at full strength I'd definitely give them the edge. But also remember UND's close loss on the road to SB who trucked the Spiders. UND's could hang in the CAA.

Since we're measuring conference dicks, a quick look back on the playoffs (and I may have missed a couple) the Big Sky is 6-7 all time against the CAA. The CAA had a better showing in the 2000's with the run of different champs.

EWU is 2-1 all time against the CAA. All three of the teams we played - a beat up and travel weary Nova and awesome defensive Blue Hen team in 2010, and the runner up Tigers in 2013 - were outstanding and talented.

According to Supe's final "How They Fared" thread, JMU's SoS is 40 while EWU's is 3rd. In other words, while the Dukes were running up scores on Morehead, CCSU, and getting knocked around by UNC, we were beating Washington State, losing in OT at the Fargo Dome, and beating UNI at home. Move on to the respective conference schedules and the BSC is rated above the CAA, and every team in the conference has a higher SoS than JMU (BTW, the same is true for a few more conferences including the Big South). In fact, with the exception of last week, JMU failed to "put a whipping" on any of the quality opponents they played.

But who brought up JMU anyway? My point? 1) JMU vs. EWU would be an evenly matched game just like every single time Big Fluffy Champ EWU has faced a CAA opponent. 2) Predicting EWU's games based on what the rest of the BSC has done in this year's playoffs is worth two things...And Jack just left town. IOW's "I haven't seen anything yet to make me reconsider" that stance on the CAA. xlolx

Richmond is a banged up, highly talented team making their second long road trip in a row but with a great coach and a load of talent. They're also playing with house money and that makes them dangerous. Johnson has provided a bit of a spark and has at least so far avoided throwing the picks that Lauletta was prone to. He has a great target in Brown and complimentary running game in Thompson. The pass D has great numbers but they got torched the only time they faced a quality passing offense in JMU. The CAA just isn't much of a passing conference.

Richmond would need to play lights out and capitalize on EWU mistakes to win this one but it's certainly possible.

[Eight Legger]

Here's the skinny on UR's losses:

• the loss to Stony Brook was surprising, but it came at a time when there was a pretty prominent sexual assault discussion on our campus involving a player, not named, and I'd say that was a distraction. We also had a number of turnovers that led directly to SB points.

• The W&M loss was 100% because Lauletta, our all-conference QB, tore his ACL in the first half. We were winning at the time and would have won even without him had the officials not waived off a fumble recovery for a TD in the third quarter on a bogus targeting call. W&M scored two plays later. It was a 15-point swing and since our backup QB was unavailable, we had to play two guys who had never taken a snap for us for the final 2+ quarters.

• We lost a great game to JMU by 4 points. Could have gone either way, but we didn't get the stop we needed.

[DirtyDukes]

• We lost a great game to JMU by 4 points. Could have gone either way, but we didn't get the stop we needed.

I'd argue you didn't get a couple of stops you needed, one on the drive for us to go up and another for us to go up 10 with 2 minutes left.

But it was a helluva game.

Hope you guys can pull it out and even run the table, how amazing would a rematch in the Nat'l Champ game be? Wowza.

Richmond are definitely dogs in this, but rememeber..the site is any given saturday for a reason.

Spiders could take the Eagles..

Will be a fun one to watch.

[bostonspider]

Lol, however you'd like to compare my friend. I figured you for a government worker.... we can compare our states economies and get a pretty good picture of where we stack up.

Not sure you want to get into an argument with UR about money, lol. If there is one thing Richmond has, it is money. The school, the alums, the currents students and parents.. All pretty well off.

[Matt]

Christ the bragging is embarrassing.

[BigHouseClosedEnd]

Here's the skinny on UR's losses:

• the loss to Stony Brook was surprising, but it came at a time when there was a pretty prominent sexual assault discussion on our campus involving a player, not named, and I'd say that was a distraction. We also had a number of turnovers that led directly to SB points.

• The W&M loss was 100% because Lauletta, our all-conference QB, tore his ACL in the first half. We were winning at the time and would have won even without him had the officials not waived off a fumble recovery for a TD in the third quarter on a bogus targeting call. W&M scored two plays later. It was a 15-point swing and since our backup QB was unavailable, we had to play two guys who had never taken a snap for us for the final 2+ quarters.

• We lost a great game to JMU by 4 points. Could have gone either way, but we didn't get the stop we needed.

That's all awesome, but how about our financial strength???

looking forward to seeing this game. I am very surprised at how little chatter there has been on this thread. This should be the prime time game in my opinion.

Despite being a compelling matchup, why should be prime time over NDSU/SDSU? Even JMU and SHSU has a pretty good shot, but I suspect it comes down to people watching, and neither fan base is huge.

1) It features two power house teams from top FCS conferences

2) Features one of the top QB in FCS

3) Both teams defeat FBS team from P5 conference

4) Potential for lots of scoring

5) Red turf at EWU

80% chance of snow between 11:00 am and 2:00 pm. It's pretty much gonna snow all day.

I bet there will be some scoring done, curious to see how the snow affects everyone. I do know our defense has been trending up for 6 weeks straight and our boss linebacker is back and 2 great backups who now have tons of experience can confidently rotate in...one of which is a Kupp.

This is a good listen with interviews involving HC's of both teams and an EWU player.

It's interesting that Rocco has only gotten his info about EWU's defense from stats so far. Obviously, he'll watch film, and will likely see that stats only tell part of the story. Hopefully, his mindset is already impacted to not take the D to seriously. xthumbsupx http://skylinesportsmt.com/big-sky-breakdown-ewu-quarterfinals/

Swear I'm not complaining or making up excuses in case we get hammered, but it's always struck me as odd that EW or Boise wearing jerseys that are the exact same color as the field is legal. It's such an advantage that exists outside of the competition taking place on the field, and really makes for an unlevel playing field (ha). And I also think that, since it is legal, it's very strange that more teams don't follow suit. We couldn't because our single color uniforms are white, but a team like JMU in their all-purples or SHSU in all orange could totally take advantage of this.

I heard players commenting on it saying that on the field it's not a problem at all (uniforms being the same color as the turf) in terms of camouflage or anything like that. I think it's just more difficult to pick things up when watching on TV.

Also, it'll be a pink field tomorrow (with the layer of snow on it) so the EWU jerseys will stick out even on TV.

Yeah, that was funny.

It's like when the griz players run across the maroon teddy bear head in the center of their field. They become temporarily invisible. ;)

Truth is, EWU rarely wears all red in the inferno anymore. They did it a few times the first year.

The players are seeing each other against the horizon, so the field color really doesn't create an advantage by blending in.

To Kalms point, many schools have green unis, I've never heard of anyone having an issue with a perceived advantage that conveys.

At least few out West, though I’m not sure you should think of North Dakota as part of the West. People around here certainly don’t. The Midwest sure, but the West? No way.

One of the things that impressed me in last night's game was JMU's defensive backs and their ability to cover. Briscoe was off, but there weren't very many open throws either. Richmond is statistically better against the pass than JMU so it will be interesting to watch their matchup with Kupp, Shaq, and KB. Wouldn't at all be surprised to see us get the running backs involved in screens and swing passes and have the TE's see more targets. Or we might try and establish the run a bit more...

Just finished the article. Pretty typical RTD coverage of the Spiders. They don't really care about us, don't know anything about FCS and have no impetus to research. Their Spider guy is a basketball guy, anyway.

Gubrud is getting an eternity to throw the ball. Richmond has never seen a passing attack like this.

Yeah, the CAA doesn't have many good QBs right now. Schor (JMU) and Lauletta(UR) are the best, and UR only had to face one of them, obviously.

[Rjones61]

Richmond gets stopped on 4th and 2 at the four yard line. Huge turnover.

[Rjones61]

Richmond intercepts Gubrud at the EWU 45. Big turnover.

[MacThor]

UR needs to dial up pressure. We can't cover these guys for eternity.

Cooper Kupp gets another touchdown on a fourth down conversion to make it 14-0.

On Richmond's first play on offense, the Spiders fumble the ball and EWU gets it again.

Hey everyone, AlphaGriz1 made a fake account called Man1 on eGriz to try troll an EWU thread again. He just couldn't keep away.

EWU gives a run dominant look to Richmond and gashes them ~60 rushing yards for a touchdown.

Richmond only has five spiders in the box and EWU is looking to exploit that.

Spiders should have stayed home.

EWU intercepts Richmond to make 5 turnovers. EWU is +4 in turnovers this game.

EWU makes a field goal to extend their lead 31-0

Also, TV makes it appear there is minimal attendance at this game

Richmond is on their own goal line 3rd and 32. Yikes!

EWU TD called back on an illegal forward pass; Gubrud was beyond the LOS before he threw the ball.

Everything that couldve gone wrong did. We no-showed. Our lack of depth due to injuries finally showed up and our play calling was terrible. And the equipment manager should be fired. Not one guy could get a foot hold. See you guys next year

[dudeitsaid]

The Spiders have nothing to hang their heads about. The comeback last week to get to this point was nothing short of incredible. The adversity this team faced was bound to catch up with them. There were some solid plays made by the team, but I think the injuries, travel, weather, and QB experience played a big part. What I thought was really impressive was the culture of your team. For Johnson to sacrifice his redshirt year to lead the team in the playoffs, and the team to rally around him, I though said a lot about the kind of mindset your team has. It's tough when the right things go wrong. And when things went wrong early, it was hard to recover. It's always tough for a team if they can't put their style onto the game. In any case, as has been stated, congrats on a great season. There are many, many other teams that would've loved to have the success you guys had this season. Hope your coach stays, if you don't have to deal with the challenges of replacing coaching staff, I am sure you will be back next year.

[spdram]

Congrats to EWU and their fans. Sorry we didn't put on much of a show today, looks like the wheels finally fell off the bus. The coaching chatter, two time across country, injuries, exams, none of them helped but the better team sure won today. You team and coach showed how to win with class, easily could have scored again as drained as our few remaining starters were. Best of luck the rest of the way.
