I don't remember a time in my life where I was checking the football board more than basketball - but here we are.
Absolutely feels like a must win, especially with a road date at Nova looming. Hopefully they're not looking ahead to that game.
A couple of landmines do loom ahead, but Rhody is going to be in a unique position for us which is being the hunted. Not used to seeing a low teens number next to our name, so we're going to get everyone's best shot.
Can't wait for Saturday.

Remaining schedule:
@ Towson
@ #6/5 Villanova
Maine
@UMass
#23/28 New Hampshire
@ NR/T-40 Elon
We need two wins for about a 50/50 playoff shot, 3 to pretty much clinch.
Yes, Towson is probably our second easiest game left, so it would be good to get it under our belt, but I wouldn't call it a must win, or necessary, or however you want to phrase it. For instance, if we split these next two, it would be much better for us to lose to Towson and beat Villanova as opposed to the other way around. The nice thing about this start is it gives us a lot of options to get at least two more wins as opposed to hunting for them down the stretch to stay in the playoff picture

Players thought they were taking the bus to Towson
Then the bus pulled into TF Green to fly in the Patriots Plane.
Nice things happen when you are winning!!

Amazing what winning does for a programs visibility and the buzz that comes with it.
Well deserved for Fleming and these guys. Awesome to have a football program.

100% agree, they mentioned this story on 98.5 the #1 rated Boston sports radio station and they mentioned how URI is having a good season and is highly ranked.

Not to be the debbie downer just asking a question.
While I think everyone is happy Rhody got to fly down to the game and on the patriots plane and all that, yada yada yada
BUT what is the NCAA rules on this? I’m sure everything was cleared and given the go ahead but would this be a form of a gift? Kraft said he paid for everything and Rhody didn’t have to use any of there budget money.
Just was thinking about it. If Rhody keeps winning this could be maybe a yearly thing.

Now let’s win this big game today!
How exciting to be 5-0, only team undefeated in CAA Standings, in 1st place by ourselves, gluing unexpectedly on the New England Patriots plane, ranked #12 in the FCS Standings!!
And nobody talking about dropping URI Football!!
GO RHODY!
I’m jealous of any URI fans who will be at todays game!
Who’s planning to be there?

I have flosports for the past few years. I can watch any CAA Game. I also have ESPN+
Can't imagine not watching today's game in 45 minutes.
Not sure how the playoffs work from a televised schedule but I'm guessing Flofootball would be involved
Towson, Villanova and Elon are 3 upcoming road games that are on Flofootball

Another poor in-game coaching performance. We punt from their 35, net 15 yards, they go for it from their 42 and get it. Nova next week, this could go south quickly.

Re: GM 6 Football @ Towson 4pm Saturday Oct 16 FloFootball.com
Fleming has to stop settling for punts and field goals (the all-time points leader went wide right again). That 1980’s coaching philosophy is coming back to bite us in the butt. The OC struggled to come up with anything creative. Towson ran trick plays and went wildcat to score.

Re: GM 6 Football @ Towson 4pm Saturday Oct 16 FloFootball.com
That opening drive was a killer. Botched snap, penalty and then the big one was Woods dropping that pass right in his hands. That had the chance to be a big gainer and at worse a first down and some confidence for the O. Frimpong dropped a couple as did Warren though his was justified with that hit. Hill has struggled but it doesn’t seem like our WRs create much separation. They also seemed to get a lot of pressure on Hill whereas we barely ever got to their QB. We weren’t going undefeated so now we see what the team is made of as they head to Nova.

Is it us? Like why is it every time any major program is close to getting over a hump we shoot ourselves in the foot.
Weren’t ready from the jump. Fumbled snap - and did i see our receivers not wearing gloves in a monsoon? I mean I get it whatever works for you works - but we had our first 4 passes bounce off the hands.
The road ahead is perilous. Hopefully this taught them a lesson so they can recover.

Re: GM 6 Football @ Towson 4pm Saturday Oct 16 FloFootball.com
Let's be honest here. I know it is a great story to have a program that has been one of the worst out there in football to be breaking thru at 5-0 and everyone is talking about it, but we aren't that good. People have said even if we get 4 loses we are getting in the playoffs-cmon. What wins do we have of significance so far? The breaks have gone URI's way so far. The coach has done a great job up to this point, but this team is going to lose several more games including Villanova but a lot. This is the kind of game you have to win to make the playoffs. Overall it has been a successful season for URI, but i would be surprised if they make the playoffs. There is an opportunity to lose any of the remaining games on the schedule especially Villanova and Elon.Blue Man wrote: ↑2 years ago Is it us?

I'm not sure it would be any different in the NCAA's eyes than a booster paying for a charter, which has been allowed. I think because it's not a direct gift to the athlete it's fine, and that's not even taking into account the loosening of rules due to NILRhodysk wrote: ↑2 years ago Not to be the debbie downer just asking a question.
