As expected the CAA will be a dogfight!:D

They have Richmond higher then W&M? Doesn't make sense to me.

On paper, you could be right. That said, W&M has 3 trips to New England and a brutal finish to their schedule ... and oh yeah, we've beaten them 5 years straight... :D

Understood. And I know things can completely change as the games play out...but if I am not mistaken Richmond lost a lot of players? W&M looks to be a very similar team to last year that is all. I also don't agree with UNH @ 10, but what can you do.

I will be interested to see where these teams shake out in the AGS poll later today.

Other than the cost, and difficulty for fans, the three trips to New England don't bother me. Easier on the team to take an hour and a half charter flight than to ride a bus to Villanova or Delaware. Maine, UNH and UMass all have close by airports, so those trips are not tough on the team, plus they're spread out over the season. The finishing stretch, and the fact we don't play Towson, is the toughest part of the schedule. Delaware, UNC, UNH, JMU and UR in succession is a big challenge.

As to the five straight losses, that's what JMU was pointing to last year.:D

Very surprised to see UR ranked that high, shocked actually, is TSN even researching things or do they think Corp is the second coming?

Probably a combination of both ... mostly the prior.

Anyone know 11-25?

Here's to hoping the Paulus looks better than he did in the Spring Game...

If he's even the starter. I've been hearing good things about Caprio, hopefully we will have things sorted out for UMass...

This is a bit off topic, but have any of you State U fans heard what David Ball and Ricky Santos are doing this year? Last time I checked the CFL rosters, neither was listed anywhere.

They were both recently cut for CFL rosters...what happens next is anyone's guess...
