UNH at UCA (2nd Round)

[BEAR]

UNH travels to Conway to face the Bears...who you got?

[NDSUtk]

After watching UNH today, if UCA doesn't score enough points by the end of the first quarter to win, I'll be disappointed in UCA.

[cx500d]

UNH is stinkums

All logic says we get throttled, if we keep it somewhat close I'll be happy. Our offense has completely disappeared these past three games.

[Bison Fan in NW MN]

UCA rolls UNH easily.

Honestly, I don't know why. You have a very good QB and WR corps. It must be you have no real running game to speak of.

UNH threw for nearly 300 yards today, but couldn't seem to find the end zone. Smething must of happened, but they aren't as awful as their output has been since the JMU game:

at JMU - 0
at W&M - 35
vs. Elon - 16
at Albany - 0
vs. CCSU - 14

That's just 65 points in their last 5 games (13 ppg). Prior to that, UNH had scored at least 22 points per game over their first 7 games.

[aceinthehole]

Also give the UNH D some credit, as it has been keeping them in games all year long.

UNH points against:

vs. Towson - 14
at JMU - 21
at W&M - 16
vs. Elon - 6
at Albany - 15
vs. CCSU - 0

The defense has only surrendered 72 points in their last 6 games (12 ppg).

[BEAR]

I think with UCAs running backs, an Oline that has only given up 6 sacks ( 3 by Kansas State if I recall ) , multiple options at WR, deadly accurate QB hitting 66% of his passes, and a defense that has 37 sacks, and a coach with FBS experience who focuses on line play...I agree UCA should win this...

Ace, the play calling and game management that we've experienced in the last 6 weeks has been unimaginably bad. Did we waste opportunities today? Yes... Should we have scored at least 35? Yes... But we didn't, and we haven't. Our defense is legitimately good, but with the absence of a running game and a QB that holds the ball too long and can't make any throws that require reading the defense we are in a lot of trouble. Unless UCA has a complete meltdown UNH might get rolled. The only thing we have going for us is that we are due for an offensive breakout.... Which won't happen until we get rid of our coordinator!

Your a class act Ace. Very unfortunate that you not only lost a senior QB starter to suspension, but also your Freshman QB to injury at the beginning of the 4th Qtr otherwise CCSU would have likely won today.

Actually the defense has only given 63 points in those game there was also a fumble returned for a TD, a pick six, and a safety (Towson scored 17 not 14). They held JMU scoreless for three of the four quarters.

[Billnonymous]

no way UNH should be in the playoffs, and they will not be after this week. UCA 45-10

Both of those teams would've beaten Holy Cross, UNH could not. NAU would've, at the very least, put up 3 points on Albany, UNH could not. Monmouth put up 2 TDs on Albany, UNH could not even get a FG.

Evey week is a different game, UNH’s defense wouldn’t give up 41 to an undersized USD. So if UNH somehow beats UCA next week are you going to say UCA didn’t belong in the playoffs?

Billnonymous has come out of his JMU troll cave for the playoffs. It’s that time of year for the playoff trolls. He shall be back in his slumber soon once it’s over.

[Billnonymous]

Let's face it, if your Uncle Marty isn't on the Selection Committee, we aren't even having this convo. Great job beating the biggest creampuff in the playoffs without their stating QB, a match also arranged by your Uncle Marty, I'm sure. I'd say the percent chance you have of beating UCA this week are the same as the number of points you put up against Albany.

I did answer your question. Even if they lose they would still have belonged in the playoffs. A team that got shut out by Albany and needed a Hail Mary to beat Maine, two of the worst teams in CAA, plus getting whooped by a mediocre Holy Cross team and.....wait....wait, here comes Uncle Marty....annnnnnnd, UNH is in!!!!

[KPSUL]

How many of you UNH fans are making the trip to Conway for the game?

There will not likely be many. There is a contingent of family members and a few former players who travel that far - great people if you have a chance to say hello. I seriously considered making the trip to see an iconic FCS location, but airfare jumped a lot once we got within 7 days. I'm sure you guys will be great hosts if the quality of the UCA fans I've seen on AGS are a good indication.
There never would have been many, this young Wildcat teams is getting valuable playoff experience for next season, but there isn't much expectation for a deep playoff run.

[KPSUL]

no way UNH should be in the playoffs, and they will not be after this week. UCA 45-10

A closet JMU fan crawls out of his hole to make a bold prediction!

[BEAR]

It is quite a trip. I think the same low numbers would apply if UCA had to play at UNH.

We we might be low on attendance because deer season and lack of advertising by our admins makes it that way. But I go to enjoy the game anyway.

I don't think most UNH posters know I am joking and support the Wildcats when they don't play us. Heck, I traveled 8 hours to the UNH-Toledo game. That might be further than a lot of UNH fans. xlolx

[yorkcountyUNHfan]

Jim and I were talking with other tailgaters about our trips out to UNI.

[KPSUL]

We should have a poll concerning when Panther Rob will put his UNI helmet back on. I'd think a 46-7 playoff win would do it?

[bwbear]

Haha, this sounds like the Bears to our northeast.

The problem UCA has is that the state focuses on one team in the FBS....and that team has sucked for 6 years. Even the alum tend to leave school and give their money to Fayettenam instead of paying a fraction of that to support the Bears.

Combine that with duck and deer hunting seasons and our attendance drops. We had over 11k for the SHSU game but only one over 9k since, and that was Homecoming.

I don’t recall the last time it was UNI. Sometime in 2015 or 16. It’s so much fun watching posters go off on the team whose helmet I have instead of UNI.

UNH squeaked into the playoffs and I think they squeak by UCA.

Respectfully disagree. Only JMU and NDSU are more balanced than UCA. I don't think it will be close. But, that is why they play the games....

How do you know UNH didn't outbid UNI for the home field? When a Quarterfinals game involves 2 unseeded teams doesn't it go back to the higher bidder?

[BEAR]

Interesting fact: UNH and UCA have never played each other.

I wonder if that will factor into this game? UNH's coach not only said he wasn't familiar with UCA but had never been to the state of Arkansas. I'm sure he will watch game film but it's a little different when it's at the level of unfamiliarity he's claiming. Of course it can work both ways...

Coaches never like to say they are focusing on one team over another when waiting for an opponent to be determined, but I assumed that Steve Campbell may have been thinking UNH a bit more than CCSU and that could be an advantage in preparation time for this game.

On the other hand what ever UCA was doing was working well all season, so I would not expect a lot of changes. UNH needs to change up some things on offense to compete in this game, whether they do or not remains to be seen, but hopefully from the UNH perspective they will come up with few unexpected things.

[BEAR]

I know they will be flying into Little Rock. Make sure they have the bus ready and that they stay in Conway. You don't want any part of crime ridden LR. There's some nice hotels on the east side of Conway that were built like 5 years ago. Plus those are walking distance to several restaurants and stores including a Dicks Sporting Goods store if the team needs anything. But get out if Little Rock...xthumbsupx

Also, Conway is trying to go with the old town revival theme. You know, merchantiles and small downtown businesses. Like half of America isn't...xlolx

Thats it for nice hotels IMO. Take exit 127 and the new ones are on your right. Next day get back on the I40 east and take exit 129 and follow the signs straight up Dave Ward/Hwy 60 til you see UCA on your right. Total driving is only about 5 miles. There are no hotels next to UCA. Believe it or not when Paris Hilton was a regular visitor to UCA and Conway while shooting The Simple Life tv show, she attempted to get a Hilton right next to campus but the deal fell apart. Shame though. We really need one.

[CentArk22]

What nice hotels are closest to the stadium? Thank you.

On Exits 125 & 127 off of I-40 will have pretty much all of your hotel options. On 125 is a Fairfield-Marriott Inn, Holiday Inn, Microtel, La Quinta and these are all brand new. On 127 are Comfort Inn, Hampton Inn, Country Inn, these are all new as well. Exit 127 will be a little closer to the stadium (10 minutes), and 125 will be around 15 minutes away.

Hope to see some UNH fans down here this weekend!

[KPSUL]

After watching the UNH/CCSU game, I think the UNH secondary will have a lot of trouble with the UCA receiving corps.

Looks like everyone you played, except Kansas State, had trouble with your passing game. The two best UNH DB weren't playing against CCSU - they will likely both be playing this Saturday. The UNH defense has been good all year except for Holy Cross when we had lost a bunch of guys after beating Georgia Southern the week before. They held Elon to 6 points all game and JMU to 14 offensive points, 0 in the second half. They also held JMU to 3 of 15 on third down and forced 8 punts.

Alright I got some questions for UNH fans.

How does your defense handle playing a big oline? We've got a senior laden line that are over 300 lbs. that keep Hildebrand clean.

Also how does the defense handle a quick play offense and 5 players rotating in and out constantly?

Finally, how does the defense handle passes to 10+ receivers and runs by 5 backs a game?

For your offense, how does the offense line do on stopping the defense from getting to the QB?

What is your typical defense package and offense packages? UCA runs multiple packages so it's hard to tell exactly what we rely on as a base set.

I picked UCA, but week-to-week, UNH has played a much tougher schedule that should leave them better prepared for this type of game. I wouldn't be surprised for UNH to win, but still not picking them in this poll.

[UNIFanSince1983]

I don't see this one being close at all. UCA should take care of business.

[BNATION]

This will be very ugly IMO, 52-13 UCA. Go Bears.

[BNATION]

Whatever you have to smoke send it down here because its better than the **** we have obvioulsy, UNH has no prayer in this game. I will give you 20 points and put any amount you'd like on this game.

[WrenFGun]

Alright I got some questions for UNH fans.

How does your defense handle playing a big oline? We've got a senior laden line that are over 300 lbs. that keep Hildebrand clean. UNH's defensive line is pretty good, but mostly against the run. Rick Holt and Ryan Sosnak are all-conference caliber tackles and can contain the run, and Horton can rush the passer, but pass rush isn't consistent. Brian Carter is the other DE and he is somewhat light on experience, as UNH has lost the two DE's ahead of him on the depth chart to season ending injuries. UNH relies heavily on Quinlen Dean and Jared Kuehl, their two LB's, to both make tackles on run plays and bring pressure on blitzes. UNH is very susceptible over the middle on streak plays.

Also how does the defense handle a quick play offense and 5 players rotating in and out constantly? I'm not sure this is particularly different than what UNH is used to facing. SELA ran this offense a few years ago and struggled against UNH's defense. UNH rotates heavily on the line and in the secondary, so I don't know if fatigue will play in. You'll see at least three linebackers (Steven Harper, and 4 if Michael Balsamo can go), at least 7 lineman (Jacob Bradshaw, Riley Ammermann, perhaps Schumacher) and at least 7 guys in the secondary (Alonzo Addae, Marquis Carr, Pop Lacey and perhaps even Matt Sherlock) on the regular.

Finally, how does the defense handle passes to 10+ receivers and runs by 5 backs a game? Probably the same way they would handle 3 receivers and 1 back. I'd think they'd cover the guys on the field.

For your offense, how does the offense line do on stopping the defense from getting to the QB? UNH has allowed 45 sacks this year. They are dreadful at protecting the QB. I'd expect UCA to be in Knight's face all day. UNH's best chance is to enter this game assuming they cannot run the ball or protect Knight in standard formations.

What is your typical defense package and offense packages? UCA runs multiple packages so it's hard to tell exactly what we rely on as a base set.UNH runs 100% of their plays on offense out of the shotgun. Typically they go 3 wide with a TE and a RB. On defense, UNH plays a 4-2-5. On obvious passing downs they play more of a 3-2-6, and I've occasionally even seen 7 DB's on the field.

Also how does the defense handle a quick play offense and 5 players rotating in and out constantly?

Finally, how does the defense handle passes to 10+ receivers and runs by 5 backs a game?

For your offense, how does the offense line do on stopping the defense from getting to the QB?

What is your typical defense package and offense packages? UCA runs multiple packages so it's hard to tell exactly what we rely on as a base set.

What's the rush, they've got 3 full days to figure all that out. Let's deal with something more pressing. I used to go to a Catfish restaurant in the boonies north of Little Rock called Grandpas. Looks like they moved it closer to town - is it still any good?

[BEAR]

Answers in quote.

Thanks for the insights. As fans we really don't get to see much of what other teams do in conferences that are as far away as UNH is to UCA. Hence the reason I don't vote in the AGS poll. When your coach said he wasn't familiar with UCA and had never actually been to Arkansas, well, I had to know more about your program. I do wonder sometimes if unfamiliarity is a factor that will keep this game close. But if your line has given up 45 sacks and UCA's line has given up 6 (3 to Kansas State), then there may be a larger margin of victory then what I thought. Campbell stresses line play. I just hope we have him after our run in the playoffs is done.

No idea. There's countless mom and pop catfish joints in this area. I avoid LR and NLR as much as possible. But if you're in town, head on down there. Just because I've never had it doesn't mean it's not any good.

[Bear84]

This will be very ugly IMO, 52-13 UCA. Go Bears.

I think you're the one with the smoke! The UNH offense has struggled to score, but they have a very stout defense, probably the best that UCA has faced this year. When you also factor in the UNH offense failing to give the D much rest, their D looks even better. I expect a low scoring defensive game, something like 17-3.

I’ll be honest with you, I’ve lived in Central Arkansas my entire life and I’ve never heard of that place. Even if I had, I can assure you there’s a bunch of places in the area that are a lot better.

UNH's Oline has allowed 45 sacks this year ( UCA 6 )..even if they are good at run defense (ala McNeese ) they apparently aren't at pass defense. UCA will attempt to run the ball to start out with then throw it to keep them honest. But eventually that Dline will get tired. I see this going the way of McNeese honestly. UCA by at least 4 TDs. UCA just mixes it up too much...

If Central Arkansas can complete deep balls on UNH the game is over. UNH will try to stop the run, keep the passes in front of them and tighten up around their 35. If UCA converts there or hits on chunks, it will be a blowout.

[BNATION]

I think the CAA gets exposed. I watched Elon 2nd place, and was utterly unimpressed. I think UCA scores at least 35 points minimum and UNH may put 7 or 6 on the board. Conway is a tough place to play. Problem is UNH is about to play a team that not only runs well, but throws well. I dont think they can stop both. Hild has a big day through the air.

[ElCid]

I am thinking NH defense will give UCA some fits. Won't be a runaway. NH will obviously have issues scoring. I am thinking around a 31-14. And that 14 may be generous. One being a short field or defensive score.

UCA throws for long yards a few times a game.

27, 74, 52, 46, 74, 58, 60, 81, 57, 32, 55, 54, 48, 43, 69, 35, 78...these are the long pass plays for each game this year. There may have been other long plays in each game but I just grabbed the ones listed as longest pass plays.

Anyone have any links to any highlight videos or full games? I can find the K-State game, but that's not showing a lot from UCA from a competition or performance perspective. Cursory youtube research has been pretty limited!

It is true. But it is one of the wettest dry counties in Arkansas. Everyone sells it. Right across the street from the stadium is BEAR DENS PIZZA. Actually pretty good food. All the drinks you want. But if that's not your cup of tea, hit MORGAN/MAUMELLE or MORRILTON. They are 20 minutes up I40 either way and load up at one of their booze haunts.

[caribbeanhen]

Off the top of my head I would say the uni's of the two teams in this game are very similar

[Mattymc727]

Id imagine UCA will be able to put up anywhere from 25-35 on UNH, even with the improving UNH defense. It would be whether UNH can score more than that, and the answer is no right now. Its been such a horrible offensive line for UNH that even with the talented receivers and versatile Trevor Knight, they haven't been able to get anything going.

Also of note, UNH isn't very good at kicking the ball. 3 missed field goals against CCSU on Saturday. UNH doesn't kick it very deep on kickoffs either, and has a pretty lackluster return game as well.

Id say UNH is pretty good at stopping the run, that's about all they have going for them.

Take it from a recent UCA grad, Bears Den Pizza probably isn’t the place you want to go for drinks.. it’s the college bar. Bunch of cool places downtown (10 min from the stadium) to go get drinks. (JJ’s, Old Chicago, US Pizza, Mike’s Place etc). No liquor stores, but majority of restaurants serve.

Bigger players didn't always translate to better. UNH was undersized against McNeese and SELA in years past and won. UCA may very well be a different beast altogether, but UNH shouldn't be worried about size on paper.

I've read a few of your posts and I think you have it a bit wrong. You need to keep in mind that a bad UNH is better that 90% of your conference any day of the week. You stated previously that the CAA will get exposed this week, but why? If UCA beat up on UNH they beat a team that was fourth in their conference and is having their worst year since 2003. JMU and Stoney Brook are much more complete teams than anyone in the Southland. Also, I seem to remember almighty Sam Houston needing to fend off a furious 4th quarter rally to beat a terrible Richmond team. Get off your imaginary high horse. There is no need to insult any team that's left playing right now. They have all earned it by either achieving a bye or winning last week.

SHSU, UCA, Nicholls, McNeese and maybe SELA could beat UNH. The CAA will lose two teams this week. UNH and Stony Brook/JMU. They may not be exposed, but our Softland Conference will likely have more teams in the quarterfinals. I would take SHSU and UCA over Stony Brook any day of the week. And save the “yall got killed by JMU talk”. This is about UNH. SHSU needed some big stops to hold of Richmond. I’m assuming you didn’t watch the JMU Richmond game? The top of the CAA is, well, top notch. Elon, SB, JMU. After that is a cluster of mediocrity. UNH is right in the middle. That is exactly how the SLC is too, save a NC winner like JMU. It’s time to hop off your “we beat Central Connecticut State in the playoffs” high horse and face the facts.

UD should have been in over UNH. EWU and Austin Peay are in the same boat

the interesting part about this game is CAA bad vs Southland good, and I think Central Arkansas will win this game and it might not be close. Having said that, I think a bad New Hampshire team is still just as bad if not better than Nicholls State, McNeese State and SE Louisiana, those would be much more interesting games to kind of measure perceived Southland weakness vs the CAA.

Although the CAA is not particularly strong this year, I wouldn't measure the CAA by Elon, they were sinking like a stone once they played the better teams

Stony Brook in a very solid team and that would be a great game to send them down to Central Arkansas, they are just as good. But the FCS will not have to worry about Stony after this Saturday as they catch a bad bracket and have to play JMU....... JMU should be rewarded with San Diego but it appears San Diego can only travel to Fargo...

Sure they would beat HBU, IWU, ACU, NWST, and Lamar as most other not so great teams from other conferences would do. So maybe 50% would be a better number.

Then I think SB would be making their case for being a really solid team. I actually have a sneaking suspicion that this game could sneak up on JMU, i just haven't watched SB enough. My issue with SB is they have played almost everyone within 1-7 points, and some of these teams are no world beaters. The loss to the hens is confusing me.

The Hens confused a lot of people this year, but JMU fans can attest to the Hens defense

Honestly, Delaware caught a break or two in the Stony Brook game

as for Stony Brook, very sold team, I think Stony vs C Arkansas is an even game

JMU is more like a top 50 FBS team, would take a series of bizare events for them to lose at home this Saturday

It’s time to hop off your “we beat Central Connecticut State in the playoffs” high horse and face the facts.

UD should have been in over UNH. EWU and Austin Peay are in the same boat
UNH’s AD gave the Wildcats an advantage
You guys got an easy first round draw
UNH will be killed Saturday in Conway

Unlike you I've never touted imaginary dominance. None of us have ever claimed that this UNH team is great. And we are absolutely capable of beating McNeese, SFA, and SELU. Your conference has historically been a one horse show, luckily your team has benefited from being that "Horse". Also, your conference in the past 15 years has an abysmal record against the CAA. If anyone of merit respected your conference McNeese would be in the playoffs right now, but they aren't because of reality and history. I'm not trying to trash any team that is still playing, I just wanted to point out that most of your observations are tainted with extreme bias and not rooted in any reality.

I don’t think it’s ugly at all! Love The Stripes. Games played on green grass look weird to me now.

[Bear84]

When I show someone a picture of the stripes, the typical response is Yuck! or WTF! Then I show them the red field at EWU and they usually say "ok, those stripes are not nearly as hideous as that!".

I don't really care for the colored turf myself, but I think the biggest issue with it is the footing is a bit slippery, which poses a risk of injury to the players. I think a green field with a grey/purple border would be better, where the grey/purple is just highlighting the numbers and lines on the field. It would still be distinctive, but without the vertigo. xnutsx

When it comes time to replace it, will the NCAA require it to be all green, or does it get grandfathered in?

[BEAR]

I've always enjoyed the dark green/light green pattern you see on fields like at Nicholls State.

No it doesn't..

I don't think the players or coaches are looking past UNH in any way. Go to http://southlanddigitalnetwork.com/ and listen to the coaches show on demand. From listening to the players on campus, they are focused.

Can UNH win. Of course. Will they win. Unlikely. But anything can happen and if they do I will tip my cap and wish them luck in the rest of the playoffs. xthumbsupx

The Southland has produced some excellent teams that have done well against any FCS/1AA competition, but there is not as much depth up and down the conference. It doesn't take a whole lot of analysis to compare the intra-conference winning margins of the top 2 Southland playoff teams to the top 2 CAA teams and come to that conclusion. Because of the quality of the top teams it seems to produce annually, I don't think Southland is one of the worst conferences; however, I do think it is fair to say that it has more than it's fair share of the worst teams in FCS football.

[WrenFGun]

I was typing this up yesterday, but I have a lot of confidence in the top of the Southland, particularly SHSU. I remember in 2014, after I basically said "this team is overrated because they haven't played anyone" they were in the final four. I saw SELA that year and that team was loaded, between Bryan Bennett and a core of very talented wideouts. McNeese seems to always struggle in the playoffs for whatever reason, but Nicholls also represented fairly well against a heavily favored team last week. I think the top 5 in the SLC are the essential equivalent of the top 5 in the SoCON or CAA, personally. Pretty much no one is on the same level as the MVFC.

What I do find interesting is that AFTER the Sam Houston State game at the end of September (they also played SELA and Kansas State before this date), the only game against a reasonable opponent was UCA's 47-17 home drubbing of McNeese State. They had an oddly tight game against SFA and put up just 27 against Houston Baptist. Those two games are probably the two UNH has to look at if they're going to make anything of this game. The last four games outside of McNeese/SFA, UCA has scored between 42 and 56 points and allowed between 11 and 17 (those games are against Lamar, ICW, ACU and Northwestern State). So the question is, did UCA figure something out after the SFA game or what?

Hillendbrand threw 3 picks in the UCA game and SFA had a guy rush for 144. Can anyone enlighten me there?

[BNATION]

Just to Clarify the HBU low point score, HBU was second in the conference in Defense and will have the defensive MVP and a future NFL lineback Garrett Dolan. SFA has good backs and not a totally terrible team. Hill had a rough game no doubt.

I'm not a doctor but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express. I can tell you for sure that about the time of the HBU and SFA game, there was bug (respritory, bronchitis-like) going around campus and likely faculty, staff, and students caught it. I visited campus one day and it felt nearly empty. One professor said she only had half her students show up. Some of them called in sick because of respritory issues. I can imagine players in close proximity spreading that joy around to each other. So I really wouldn't look at the HBU or SFA game as a key to defeating UCA. You saw what happened in the games afterward after their health likely returned. Our weather has been strange here lately. Highs in the 70s and sometimes the nights got in the 30s. After a hot summer, I guess the human body would like some normal weather so it can adjust. I know everyone in my family suffered for a couple of weeks about that time period. Not saying for sure that was the issue, but it did seem to coincide.

EDIT: Well, also consider the fact that teams don't always have blow out games. We are talking about 19 -23 year olds...xlolx

That is all true. Sometimes teams that aren't that successful have players that stand out. I'm a big fan of Dolan and SFA does have some big boys that run the ball.

I think that the inferiority complex that the SLC may have isn’t founded with us in the CAA. We have a healthy respect for your top teams. We have had some great games with SHSU & McNeese in particular. The weak conference stuff comes from another part of the FCS landscape.

The JMU blow out last season may have magnified it for others & obviously gave JMU fans fodder. ✌️

We (Southeastern Louisiana) played UCA without our starting QB, and started a converted DB who didn't take another snap the rest of the year. I wouldn't read anything into that outcome one way or the other. That said, UCA is very good and tough to beat at home.

As for the Southland as a league, it's better than public perception, especially the upper half. And the bottom half was much improved even though the win column didn't show it. We don't have an NDSU or a JMU but our top five teams could compete with the top five in any other league, and with budgets about half that of most CAA programs. We do pretty well with what we have.

Here's the deal. Little Rock has some nice places but us north central residents avoid it. It's not the safest town but easy to get around.

In Conway you have a seafood place that just opened that is right next to UCA.

Roux's Cajun Creole. It tastes as good as any imported cajun food up here in Arkansas. My McNeese fan friends will tell you there is a HUGE difference and there is. You just can't get the real thing unless you go to Louisiana. But this place is right next to UCA and I had the gumbo. Large serving and it tasted pretty darn good.

Is it Saturday yet???!!!!xeyebrowx

[FUGameBreaker]

Pretty lopsided poll here

[MR. CHICKEN]

......HEY 'CATS.......WATCH OUT...FO' DAT LITTLE GUY.......WHIFF DUH BANJO......xasswhipx......BRAWK!

Pretty lopsided poll here

Rightfully so. We just don't have the offense this year. Even if we held UCA to 17 our O would be hard pressed to outscore them. Unfortunately I see our defense being on the field for a long time today. 27-10 UCA.

I told you where to get them. xlolx

What do home teams only get to suit up 50 players?! WTF!?

[WrenFGun]

Watching the video, looks like it's 100 degrees and sunny on the field.

[WrenFGun]

UNH will force a punt on the first possession.

Prince Smith dressed and playing, which is big for UNH.

[WrenFGun]

TD UCA. RB beats the UNH safety on a wheel route, and then a downfield collison allows a TD.

[dewey]

I thought watching a game at EWU was hard to watch. Hurts my eyes.

UNH controlling LOS here early. Some decent runs.

[WrenFGun]

UNH driving after converting two 4th downs, at the UCA 10.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

Really impressive drive so far by UNH...

[WrenFGun]

TOUCHDOWN UNH!

[cx500d]

UNH came to play

[Gangtackle11]

Good for them. Caught a lot of heat the past few weeks. See if they can hang in.

[Mattymc727]

Wow UNH actually scored on a decent drive?

[WrenFGun]

Nearly picked there by UNH; I think the opportunity here is the UCA QB does not have elite arm strength if you can make a break on the ball.

[WrenFGun]

UCA has picked up 3 3rd and 6's or more on this drive, deep into UNH territory. Have to get off the field. Every slant over the middle is open right now.

[knit35]

Let’s Go UNH

[th0m]

I picked UCA in my survivor pool but **** it, c'mon UNH! Silence those naysayers!!

[WrenFGun]

UNH with a big stop on 3rd and 2, looks like UCA will attempt a FG.

MISSED FG! STILL TIED.

[BEAR]

wow. we are starting slow. xlolx

[dwtime]

Carter went down, now we are down to a 3rd string defensive end. Not good, hope he is alright.

[dwtime]

Damn that was six...

[WrenFGun]

UNH had a touchdown on a double pass but the WR fell over.

[cx500d]

UCA playing dirty by greasing the turf

[WrenFGun]

Evan Gray running at will on UCA right now.

UCA playing dirty by greasing the turf

Seriously 3 players have slipped, Coach Rocco with the WD-40 last night apparently

[dwtime]

Hometown no call there, that was a late hit

[WrenFGun]

Trevor Knight took a headshot there, no call.

[Go Lehigh TU Owl]

UNH's QB just got crushed...

[WrenFGun]

UNH's QB just got crushed...

Just one view, but looked like it was at his head to me. Just not sure it was because he got hit by the other guy first.
