My guess ... Penn 42, Lehigh 31

3 games now and the same vanilla O. Very little adaptation so far. I can speculate but I have.no real idea why. Seems like -- I can't prove it -- vanilla O is this team's MO past several years, almost like OC's saving it for the Patriot League. This year it makes sense with all the newcomers trying...

Glad you are back, QBDAD. Your insights have been always appreciated here. Bottom line: Those of us NOT playing the game knew Navy -- missing key players, too -- was the better team and would score many more points than Lehigh. Some takeaways: No, this was not QBSON's best game. I'm sure he wouldn't...

My wise-ass comment of the week in honor of some of the past and long-gone posters on this board: "Does FCS have a running clock?" I just hope everyone stays healthy. Navy 42-17. Good news is Navy likes to run so clock will run anyway. (Only 19 passes in two games.) Bad news is it runs pretty well.

I see your point. Dont think the gap is that large. Which surprises me a bit. D kept us in the game. ... With this year's D and last years O we win. Agreed that "With this year's D and last years O we win." The reality seems stars have to align for LU or other PL teams to beat top FCS programs. The...

Defense actually looked pretty good at times today; was more consistent. But today should have confirmed some things. From LU's "extra points:" Lehigh has now lost seven straight games against Villanova and eight straight against CAA opponents." Thus, this game again proves this program's growing in...

I hope this is a competitive game and no one gets hurt. After last week's squeaker, as nice of a win it was, "hope" is how I feel. Maybe I'm underestimating how good SFU is. And I just watched a ranked FCS team blow out an unranked FCS team on cable, so maybe I'm in a bad frame of mind. I'm reluctan...

think we will have a nice team, but a bit surprised by this

I agree with Van.

Some thoughts, including one I haven't seen anyone else note (I've not yet read LFN): -- This game was the kind this team has not won regularly in a few years. Up a score, close at the end and basically give it away. To THIS TEAM'S CREDIT, it NEVER gave up! It overcome two really bad turnovers and t...

Good assessment, datruph. I like your score ...
