Not much going for either team but for two big plays.

[Dane96]

Albany gain first down on defensive holding in the secondary.

Butler for Wagner 5 carries for 9 yards
McCarty for Albany 11 for 35 yards.

[danefan]

The weather down here is miserable. This is going to be a very low scoring game.

Rossomondo is going nuts in the background. Haha....I hope he calls the plays a little quiter.

[Dane96]

Was that Coach R? FUNNY...I was wondering who the madman was. He called that reverse pass so loud (Wagners' pass).

WALL TOUCHDOWN

Albany-9
Wagner-3

PAT GOOD

Coach R just went bananas on that horrible late hit call.

Albany just smashed it down Wagner's throat....big drive...McCarty finishes with a 14 yard run up the middle.

3:03 left in the third:

Albany- 17
Wagner- 3

[Dane96]

Lack of timeouts hurt the Danes driving with 1:20 to go.

Wow...Albany going for it.

[danefan]

decent first half. defense it playing well. should have some more points though.

[Dane96]

Yep...this should be 20 or 24 to 3.

Wagner had two big plays....and that is it.

[Dane96]

Albany marching all over Wagner....can't convert a 45 yarder into the wind.

[WWII]

Hate it when teams throw every down. Glad we are continuing to pressure QB

[WWII]

3:56 24-10

[danefan]

Besides the last two minutes or so, Albany has dominated this game. They need to finish now.

[danefan]

Woohoo......24-10 with a minute and change left. Albany takes over on downs.......

YES BOBBY PUT EM AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[danefan]

Albany on Wagner's 3 yd line going in with 1:15 left

[danefan]

Game over. 24-10.....Ford takes a knee on Wagner three yard line to end the game. Class act.

[Dane96]

Complete domination...I actually think Albany took something off in the last Qtr. They turned it back on...Dungey, Anderson, and Volpe dominate the last series.

Talk about class.....Albany has ball on the three with 1:40 to go. Run up the middle without a push...and then.....VINNY ESPOSITO takes a knee...AND THAT IS WHY COACHES AND PLAYERS LOVE BOB FORD!

This game easily could have been a three or four touchdown UA victory.

That being said....WAGNER HAS COME A LONG....LONG WAY! Very impressed with the strides they made! Good luck the rest of the way!

Final:

Albany 24
Wagner 10

Albany 5-3 (3-0)

Nice job. I agree Wagner has improved and is a much better team. Also, didn't Wagner HC Hamiline play for or coach under Ford? The win is what you needed not the points.

[danefan]

Hamline was an assistant coach for Ford.
