Nova, Richmond, UNH all won.
UNH will play next at James Madison, and Richmond will play UND.

I was surprised by how easily UNH beat Lehigh. Lehigh has won 8 straight and UNH had to win its final game - close win over Maine - to get in. From what I have seen - UNH talent is middle of the pack in the CAA - but they have a winning culture, the team's don't give up and they improve throughout the year. Looking at UNH as a model is probably too far reaching - but how about Maine, Albany, or Stony Brook?

We were in the games vs Stony Brook and Maine this year. So, I say, YES.

We have been in a number of games over the past few years - some against good teams, but we never win these games. And in the case of Towson this year, we played not to lose with the predictable result.

Sorry, they don't make college football video games anymore, and even when they did they didn't have FCS teams the last five years or so.

Thanks, you just got me in trouble for reading at work. Apparently being doubled over and laughing so hard you cry are frowned upon. Also I owe them a new keyboard because I spit out the water I was drinking

Susie...Susie...Susie......whoa there....Vazzano has potential....the coaching is suspect......hmmm where have I heard that before?

The URI coaching curse is alive and very well, sad to say.......

Last year Fleming canned Bleil and I was hopeful that a quality Offensive Coordinator was in the works. We all know what happened. To be fair Vazzano showed some promise and thus it is really important that a quality OC be brought in. And then there is the defense...ouch! Playoffs? Did someone say plaoffs?

To say a kid that completed more passes to the James Madison defense than his own team in a game is eventually going to lead a perennial losing program to the playoffs is insane.

It is going to be great when, per Coach Fleming, "we kick their ass at Meade next year".
