FDU QB is killing AU right now, runs another TD in from about 15 yards... FDU up 14-0 with six minutes left in the second quarter.

Juvan to Weverbergh 28 yards for a TD - King's first pass on the ensuing drive is intercepted.  Tied at 7 with about 5:30 left in the first half.

End of first half.... FDU up 14-0 on AU.   FDU QB having his way running and throwing, sounds pretty talented.. AU connecting on big plays but cannot finish out drives.

17-7 Ithaca at halftime.  After a Juvan pick and a King's stalled drive, IC went 80 yards for a touchdown - Juvan 5 yarder to Weverbergh.  King's fumbled the kickoff, Bombers recovered.  With time running out in the half, Weverbergh rumbled 17 yards but was tackled on the 1 yard line; the Bombers had to run up and spike it with 1 second left.  Welch opted for the field goal.

Tom Bergerstock runs one in from 33 yards out to start the 2nd half right.  24-7 Bombers and that's 24 unanswered.

EDIT: Hartwick is off today, SJFF82.

The live stats spazz out from time to time but it's 31-13 good guys starting the 4th.  Juvan 19 yd TD to Dan Ruffrage.  Bad kickoff and decent return gave King's good field position and they drove it down for the score - Jason Chier blocked the PAT.

Well I was checking Yahoo scores and that was the only close one.  That game had no in-game box score b/c it was "just" a MAC game.  So I went to UB's website,  checked the live stats and found Temple scored with 38 seconds left to go up by 4.  ESPN360.com doesn't work down here (thanks Bright House Florida, awesome as always!) - found Buffalo's radio broadcast on WECK with 20 seconds left.  Good timing.

AU defense made adjustments at halftime and contained the FDU QB. Made a world of difference, not to mention Pep giving the band a halftime "Pep Talk" that got the band its first score to start the second half. (Pep has been told the band is always good for at least 7 points....and Pep insisted the band get its 7 to open the second half.)
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: realistic on September 13, 2008, 04:17:28 PM
just from what was posted on here....it looks like they had a great turnaround in the 2nd half.  Well done AU.

I lost the WICB feed a few times and stopped trying, anyone have a final for IC - Kings?
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Caz Bombers on September 13, 2008, 04:19:13 PM
Ithaca won 38-28.  King's scored, recovered the onside kick, then scored again to make it 31-28 with about 3-4 minutes left, IC ran out most of the clock but King's got it back with 52 seconds left at their own 26.  Two plays later they threw a pick six that iced it.  Juvan threw for over 300 yards.

However, six Bomber turnovers (3 Juvan picks, 3 fumbles) is clearly unacceptable - that nonsense will have Hartwick scoring about 90 next week.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: realistic on September 13, 2008, 04:20:43 PM
wow - six turnovers?  You're right, that won't cut it.  Hopefully they can get it together for next week.  'wick's gonna be rested and motivated.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Caz Bombers on September 13, 2008, 04:25:05 PM
I also want to point out that on ESPN's highlight show for the Buffalo hail mary,  Robert Smith sneered "and the fans go wild, all 10 of 'em" as the entire UB student section stormed the field.  Way to embrace the moment - that's about the d-baggiest thing I've ever heard an announcer say.  Mr. Buckeye's not impressed, huh; he had just narrated the package of another "mighty Big 10" game where Northwestern beat Southern Illinois and the crowd shots showed a stadium that really genuinely may have had 10 people there in the rain.

I was gonna say, the recap made it seem that IC made a lot of turnovers but seemed to be the better team.  Thats a key win on the road nonetheless though.

Boltus to Phelan to make it 14-7.

Bombers get a nice return to about the 40.  3 plays, Juvan to Weverberg who shed a tackle and takes it in.  21-7 Bombers.

27-14 Ithaca after 1 quarter - umm, holy crap.  Maybe it would be more appropriate to move this thing indoors to the Bulb.

EDIT: make that 34-14 halfway through the 2nd.  Sounds like the FDC has bounced back with a great showing.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Caz Bombers on September 20, 2008, 02:05:37 PM
Boltus 69 yards to Corbin untouched.  34-21 with about 5 minutes left in the half.

EDIT - this game is ridiculous.  Juvan to Crandall 73 yards - gigantic TDs on back to back plays.  41-21; this is going to be like the Hartwick-Utica game last season but we may hit 72-70 in regulation.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates

Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Caz Bombers on September 20, 2008, 02:16:58 PM
taunting penalty creates short field for 'Wick and of course they score.  41-28 and it's not even halftime.

EDIT: Horrific 2-minute drill defense by Ithaca (umm, please don't give them the sideline on every play) gets bailed out with a tipped interception at the goal line.  41-28 Bombers and it's finally halftime.

Post by: AUKaz00 on September 20, 2008, 02:50:18 PM
Alfred gets to the red zone again, but is unable to punch it in (I think for the third time today).  The FG is good, 13-3 Saxons.

St. Lawrence gets the ball at their own 19 after a blocked punt, they let time run out in the third to kick it with the wind, but miss.  Still 13-3 at the start of the 4th.

The next play sees Secky picked as the Saints defender takes it away from Manzer.

Two plays later, the Saxons intercept and run it back to their own 35.

Wow...sounds like a good one in the Courage Bowl...

Shoot out today at Butterfield.  Definately got away in the late 3rd...not much 'Wick could do.  IC offense...very balanced.  Pick your poison.  Crandall coming back was huge, Wevenberg is an animal (one of the better TE's I have seen in a while...and it seems like I am saying that every year for IC).  Offensive line was huge.  I honestly thought it was going to break the 'Wick-UC score from last year.  Too many mistakes today...though I give the Hawks a ton of credit...they fought.

Two weeks to heal, study film and get ready for SJFC.

And as i say that, Bailey pulls off a McNabb like play on 4th and 2 and gets SJF to the 9 yd line...

But then throws an INT on the very next play...

What was the personal foul, that wasn't a dead ball foul?  I ask because a personal foul dead ball foul--such as a late hit--wouldn't give UofR the option to replay the down.

1. Even on a dead ball foul?  Like a kick in the helmet after the play is blown dead?

2. That seems odd to me.  The effect would be very different for a touchdown play and a field goal play--I mean, the option would only realistically apply to field goals--and conversions, I suppose.

I wouldn't call it sneaking off Caz, the entire 2nd half U of R couldn't move the ball that well on offense save one or two drives.  Fisher on the other hand had a field goal blocked, and also threw an interception in the endzone and another red zone interception previously.  It's more like U of R snuck off in terms of keeping it from being a blow out.

Sneak off may not have been the best phrasing but UR did have the ball with a chance to tie in the final minute, lost by 7 and was within 3 at halftime.  I think by definition that's not a game that was close to being a blowout.

Also, you're saying that other than the times UR moved the ball effectively on offense and made defensive plays to keep Fisher from scoring (which as I understand it is the objective of football), Fisher crushed them.  That's, uhh, certainly one way of looking at it.

There is a difference between a defense making big plays and a red zone offense that is pathetic with a quarterback who makes terrible decisions and basically gift wraps the ball to the defenders.  So yeah I can look at is as us failing to capitalize on making it a blowout as opposed to U of R doing a great job of stopping us.

I don't see the two concepts as being mutually exclusive, and as an objective observer of the second half, I'd have to say both points have equal merit:


I only listened to (most of) the second half, and from what I heard, there's no question that Fisher was the superior team.

Penalties, YES--I was struck by the number of personal foul calls on SJF, and I'm still curious about the personal foul call that UofR accepted in lieu of its field goal.*  Many personal foul calls are dead ball fouls, and wouldn't give the offense the option of replaying the down.  But personal fouls, honestly--by players for a sectarian school?   ??? ;D

* After accepting that personal foul penalty, UofR proved that SJF didn't have a monopoly on penalties per se.

Yeah, I didn't end up writing what I thought of Fisher last weekend, but if I did, I definitely would have noted they seem to lock up when they get close to the end zone. Definitely a little too cool for school when they get close to punching it in.

Utica just blocked an Alfred punt and start with it on the Alfred 30.  Still 7-0 Alfred early in the second.

EDIT: Lost the feed and Utica scored.  Then Alfred fumbled the kickoff, but on the next play it was intercepted inside the 5 and run back to midfield.

These Utica announcers are tough to listen to.  They have said phrases like "neutral loss" (for a 1 yard AU gain), "substantial gain" (for a 2 yard UC gain) and just now "taken down very briefly."  Good times, good times...

Don't be too hard on thr announcers, they aren't pro's and I grew up just outside Utica.  Hendrix is getting better.  Too bad the announcers aren't better prepared with historical information.  It would make them sound better.

Secky's first pass of the half was intercepted and turned into an Utica FG.  Manzer ran the kickoff back to the UC 40.  4 or 5 plays later, Secky avoids the rush and finds Manzer in the endzone.  20-10, Saxons early in the third.

The feed was pretty good during the first half, until it dropped during UC's TD drive.  Ever since then it has been extremely choppy.

Fisher is very fortunate to have a lead at the half. If they can finish the game the way they finished the half they can make it respecable, but that was a BRUTAL half of football. The fumbles, and INT, bad penalties, and basically just a lack of focus. Fisher needs to win these games to have any chance at the playoffs and they look like this? NOt so good.

You're right, that the OOC schedule is a joke. Next time, win the conference outright and you won't have this problem.

The OCC schedule has nothing to do with going 5-1 in confrence play, but it's ok Hartwick will always have it's haters. You say we cant win on the road we beat St. John Fisher at their homecoming. You say we don't play defense we beat Alfred in a defensive game and have won our past 3 games by a combined score of 149-51.

Hey, you win the conference games, and you get in. I think it's fine. SJF fans are just upset because they don't want their OOC losses to count. I do think the OOC could be a tough one to overcome if you wind up 7-2. But you'll be in the playoffs most likely at 8-1 so who cares? I don't think people "Hate" on Hartwick. I think that they have certain issues that make people question the ability of this team to be an East power. The defense would be one. In all fairness, holding Mt. Ida, Norwich and Becker to 51 points in all that impressive. The three teams average a total of 56 points. You held Norwich to three points below their season average, allowed three more to Mt. Ida and and Becker six points below. So pretty much par for the course. I will say I am impressed by the improvement. The defense was nothing short of pourous at IC. 

The schedule is also a concern, but at this point, you have more wins over teams with a winning record than SJF. It's tough for me to be high on THIS team, because I've only seen you guys once and well, we saw how that went. Either way, don't let him get under your skin

Pride 38 'Wick 17 in the 4th

That's a great job outta you in a big spot with that update.  Wow, this kinda changes everything, no?

props to SJF Fan for calling the SC press box in game for the updates!!!

Ha, thats awesome...

Ive thought about doing that but wondered what the reaction would of been....

As someone whose job it used to be to answer the press box phone - no reaction at all.  Caller asks the score, I give it, they say thanks, we hang up.

Cool Beans...

'We've' done it in the past from Growney to see what was going on in other First Round NCAA games...its kinda cool and usually the people answering are pretty cooperative

Do you call the Athletic Department when you do this or do you have contacts in the press box?

call 411 and get the college switchboard and ask for the press box....

No. They won three E8 games in 2005. Sounds like Hartwick may be coming off a loss, as well. Maybe UC can catch them on their heels.

I hope so. They only lose EIGHT seniors. (I couldn't believe it when I heard that. Coach Faggiano will have a chance to recruit more guys of his own, and Kemp's recruits will move on... They lose some quality guys in Ben Atwood, the punter, Lazarus Morgan, a defensive back, etc. but the nice thing is that a lot of younger players got a lot of PT this season. They'll get there. They need to start playing more complete games, and the wins over Norwich, Springfield, and even Hartwick will give them confidence over the upper-tier teams like IC, Fisher, Alfred, etc.

SJF needs to take a good long look at themselves in the off-season, its clear that neither the OC or DC had a clue all season long.  I cant stand that they tried to reinvent themselves this season after back-to-back deep runs in the playoffs.  They don't have the athletes to run this spread offense, no one is going to outrun anyone in this backfield.  

This ass whooping that AU has put on them better wake some people up.

If Íts any consolation, RPI fans can comisurate with you..a disappointing loss to Kings Point gives RPI 2nd loss and knocks us out of NCAA considersation. What a letdown when just 2 weeks ago and undefeated reg season and potential 1 or 2 seed was a possibility. Now its tough to even get motivated for a potential ECAC game. Boy the East was just sloppy in 08

Shock is a good word (althought not RTs first choice).

RT can't believe that RT loses that game w/ a potential NCAA berth on the line. Missing our best WR has hurt and inconsistent Oline play didn't help. Gotta hand it to MMA for not laying down but as an RPI fan, the feeling is disappointment, to say the least. Rt would not want to be on that bus back to Troy right now.

The lights were on the entire game. Merrill Field has had lights longer than any D3 stadium. Lights were installed back when they invented electricity because Alfred, out of deference to its Seventh Day Baptist heritage (observe the Sabbath from sundown Friday to sundown Saturday), played all of its games under the lights on Saturday nights until 1958.

Bombers take a 14-6 lead at the half. Curry playing tough but they blew a lot of opportunities. I expect Ithaca to bury them in the 2nd half.  Welch talking about how terrible the footing is on the field.

Curry takes the 2nd half kickoff and drives right down the field and Van Giesen and Taylor hook up for a TD.

PAT is blocked, 14-12.

Curry's kicker falls as he approaches the ball on the kickoff, it goes 10 yards and Curry recovers. The ICB guys have no clue what's going on. Listening to them, neither do I anymore.

Grastorf takes a backbreaking sack back to the 21-yd line. 4th and 11, Weverbergh dives but can't make the catch. Curry ball.

IC could've kicked the FG if Grastorf doesn't take the sack. Can't waste that field position.

My response to this is that Curry has played good teams every year in the playoffs the last 5 or 6 years, and some of them they've played tough, and they even won one of them.  Yes, they lost to Plymouth in the Regular season, but i'm pretty sure Curry is the better team.

Grastorf slips back to the Ithaca 30 on 2nd and 3. Bombers have to punt, Curry takes over at their own 17. That's a 13 yard punt.

i told everyone that weeks ago and noone wanted to hear it so i dont wanna hear it now.

cstate is reversing his path and jumping on the Cortland Secondary's bandwagon.  Those boys will have a big game.  Get on now before there is no room left!

cstate thinks that while Welch will cry about it, the footing might have neutralized ICs talent advantage.  There will be no such problems in Cortland.

cstate is looking foward to the first ever tailgate in central NY that involves Sizzurp.

Cstate, I'd be careful. I watched your secondary today. Didn't look like many guys could make a play on the ball when it was in the air. Curry has a good QB and a couple good WR's. As I said earlier this week, PSU plays right into the teeth of the Cortland defense. Curry plays to Cortland's weakness. They'll put up points, putting up enough points is the issue.

Maybe an all-star team of the best left?  Because so far......it's pretty pathetic in the East.

SOMEBODY sack up and bring their best game to Alliance!

Well you have yet to play an East Region team.  Hopefully Hobart/Curry/Cortland will provide a better game than RMC

they have been terrible and that is currys strength and i expect a very close game rather then a blowout


but cstate is jumping on the secondary bandwagon.  they give up points and yards but in the end they make big plays to win it!
2 picks!
mark it down!

i believe in the cstate secondary!
jump on the bandwagon now!

Been trying to get the stream up to the tv here in Mayberry.  14-0 Saxons, in the 1st quarter.  A shout out to the pep band and 2 to the contingent here in the library during the broadcast.

And Manzer pulls in another Secky pass to make it 21-0, Alfred.  2 minutes left.

If they didn't botch that one snap on the punt and shank another punt 8 yds it might be a different story as both those miscues were turned into TD's for MUC...

Finally free long enough to put my thoughts down about Saterday's game.  The game was one block-in-the-back away from being a laugher and Alfred played as if it was during the third quarter.  Credit the Devils for never giving up and twice taking the lead in the second half.  As Pep pointed out when FDU took the lead with 2:32 remaining, "Now we get to see what this team is made of" and hopefully that game can serve as the same wake-up call that Ithaca, Hobart and Montclair got without counting as a loss in the standings.  Only time will tell, but I think this Saxons team will go as far as its young secondary can develop over the next few weeks.  Hopefully we'll have another exciting finish to the season here in Mayberry.

I saw him last week from the stands and that seems about right.  I didn't really pay that much attention though.  Why is he shorter do you think?

wow.  Best picture I have ever seen on the stretch internet broadcast for Ithaca. But it skips like every 5 or 10 seconds.  Anyway to just delay it 30 seconds or even a minute so it doesn't skip?

17-7 Ithaca with a little more than 3 minutes in the half.  Widner has the ball 3rd and goal up at the 10 or so

That SJF female announcer is horrible...before the onside kick...

"I'm not sure what the U of R plan is"

Really? 56 seconds to go, kicking team down by 2 and you're unsure of what's going to happen? Ugh, I had bad announcing.

On another note, what the heck happened to SJF? I'm willing to admit some let-down was coming up 22, but to let them get that close to tying the score is unbelievable, especially at home. We could be setting up for another season of debate as to what SJF's close wins, and losses to MUC mean. Here's hoping that if IC doesn't make it, Fisher does the honors
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Cardinal 4 Life on September 19, 2009, 10:04:38 PM
Really though, the defense looked terrible. U of R is not a very good offensive team. I agree with taking Bailey out at 35-13. He was hurt last week in garbage time, and they half-learned their lesson. Your defense should never, ever give up 20 points in the fourth quarter.

That said, letting the young gun throw the ball over the middle? In field goal range? Spiraled downhill from there.

Springfield converts scores a TD on 4th down on the first play of the second quarter.  7-7 at Merrill.

EDIT: Alfred returns the ball to the 40, Manzer takes it to the house on the fake end around opening him up deep on the first play from scrimmage.  14-7, Saxons.

No numbers.  Alfred's 3 scores were through the air.  Springfield is not gettin much up the middle, but lots when they get out wide.  How the corners adjust in the second half will determine a lot.  I'd guess that Springfield is out gaining Alfred.

All of them? Lol nah. Certainly, Springfield next week could do it with that defense. Although I don't know how UC defends the option. They hung with Fisher last season and the Cardinals aren't looking like world-beaters right now.

I think they're probably going to win 2 this season. I can't really see them winning at Alfred, but 2 of the other 3 look doable. No easy outs in the E8 this season...

AU's Vinson Hendrix was the Saxon workhorse today, going 175 yards with 3 TDs on 36 carries. His rushing yardage has exceeded the previous week's total each game this year.

AU finishes with 190 rushing yards to go with 242 passing yards for total yardage of 432 while Springfield went for 435 yards with 396 on the ground and 39 through the air. Secky was 14-for-19 for 185 yds and 3 TDs, no INTs. Ryan Thon was 1-for-1 for 57 yards and a TD. Manzer had 8 catches for 168 yards and 3 TDs.

SC QB Josh Carter had 21 carries for 115 yards and a TD and was 4-of-9 for 39 yards, 1 TD and 1 INT.

Saxons had no turnovers....Springfield had an INT and a fumble.

Great job, Saxons! Springfield is a tough quick athletic team...Pep wishes them the best for the remainder of the 2009 season!

Hey Pep,

Is it not difficult to evaluate today's game from the perspective that it looks like the first test for either team, seeing the schedule and results of the teams they have beaten.

Hopes are up but I guess we won't really know much at all for two weeks at least.

You're absolutely right....Saxons have their highest hurdles still before them, but to their credit, they haven't stumbled early as they did last year.

Wow.  What a boring defensive game. 

Looks like IC's Left Tackle is using the unusual strategy of not blocking Fisher's Defensive End in the hopes of tiring him out.

Also, watching this game on TV reminds me why I moved back to Florida.  Looks cold and cloudy.  Today's low in Tampa: 78.

Fisher reminds me of some of those old IC teams that would let people hang around for a bit, but make great adjustments as the game wore on and take control later on. Seems like I'm always thinking "Man, could Fisher get upset?" for about 25 minutes, and the next thing you know, they're up 17

I couldn't get the video feed so I am listening to the ESPN Radio station.  Radio guys just reported that Bailey came off and got ripped by QB Coach...wait for it...Rob Kramer!

Ummm...Upstate, how has this not come to light yet?  No head's up that our boy was still around?  I mean, I feel like the Alfred guys would tell us if they hired that LB (Edit: Nick Gatto.  Can't believe I blanked on his name) as a coach.

Also, what's up with Kramer not giving us a good 2009 head shot?  Doesn't he know that is his thing?

If you're going to play it, don't rush 4...

Rush 3 and spy...

That raises two interesting questions:

1) How bad are Secky and Hendrix hurt and can they get healthy before the trip to IC?

2) If not, does their loss give IC hope despite their porous defense?
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: theoriginalupstate on October 24, 2009, 04:02:14 PM
Couldn't have asked for a better scenario for SJF...

Secky and Hendrix both go down (hope it's nothing serious) and they still can't win the game...

That says a lot about both teams...

Congrats to AU for pulling it out with out 2 of your best players...

However SJF seriously needs to switch things up on offense, they are still reverting back to the 2008 team...

Too many times this team gets cute on offense...

The screen game is horrendous...

The QB does not even know where the middle of the field is. He has two throws, the bomb and the fade...

How many times the past two years did they run the zone read out of the gun and get no where with it?

Who was begging?  Who ever said we should have been ranked in any region polls?  Who ever said they would beat anyone?  I don't ever remember anyone bragging...

We all knew we lost a lot last year.  It is tough to lose an all time D3 player and expect the same results.  We should throw all efforts against UC, get to 5-3...and then see if we can play tough against Fisher.

If I were an IC fan, I would worry more about not getting thumped by Springfield, Alfred, and Cortland.  You should also be worried about why IC let someone as disgusting looking as Steve Phillips girlfriend into your school...I expected that from RPI maybe...but not IC...

Read what I wrote. I didn't say bragging. I said someone was wondering why they didn't get any respect at 4-0. These last three weeks are why. How am I stating anything but a fact? You were 4-0, and people were saying wait until the schedule got tougher before getting excited.

Before the IC game, from Bosox:

"Most people complain about a weak schedule and Hartwick wont get any credit until they beat Ithaca or Fisher (recent years Fisher) or both... and even when they do that most people on here act like its a fluke instead of giving them credit... its no secret"

That sure sounds like someone playing the "we get no respect" card to me...

Yeah, we probably should worry about those games. Very few people have been tougher on IC than I have. In fact, wasn't I the one who said the Bombers were "staring down the barrel of a 5-5 season?" Oh yeah, I was.

And, as a Hartwick fan, you'd know quite a bit about getting thumped by Alfred and Springfield. Not Cortland though. I guess being a competent football team took them out of the running to show up on Hartwick's OOC schedule huh?

Ohhhh a Brooke Hundley joke! How witty! You should text that to Boltus.

You're right, Ithaca doesn't have a signature win yet. Again, who said they did? I certainly never did. If you look at my history of posts, I'm one of the most cynical Bomber fans you'll find.

Utica got more credit because, unlike Hartwick, they'd never beaten IC, and except for one year, got obliterated each game. At least that's my opinion. So to some degree, it's not that suprising that Hartwick gave them a game.

And in past years there's no way in hell you can disagree with the fact that Hartwick didn't get any respect. Hartwick beats Fisher its a fluke, Utica plays fisher tough and the whole east better watch out. Hartwick loses to Curry its the biggest embarrassment ever, Ithaca loses to Curry at home and that's just swept under the couch......That's all the past tho....As for this year I think its time for a Hartwick Starting QB switch...

I do agree with the Hartwick posters on this one. If you check the posts, Hartwick beating Ithaca was a fluke, and the loss to Curry meant they were the worst team ever. When Ithaca lost to Curry many took it as Curry making a name for themselves regionally. Do I think Utica is getting to much credit for playing close games? The answer is yes. Bombers798891 is more critical then any other Ithaca poster on this board IMO, but I do think he is looking into that post a little to much. None the less, lets see what Ithaca does when they play Springfield.

You are right about the Curry losses not being treated equally.

But the thing is, which name carries more weight in D-III? Ithaca or Hartwick? I mean, that does matter if we're talking perception. Is it fair? No. But that's how it is.

Also, I think the way Hartwick and Ithaca got there played into that. In 2007, Hartwick entered that game with a point differential of +37 (379-342). Ithaca entered the game with a point differential of +163 (379-216). That, plus the IC game being on the road, made that a bigger win

I may have been reading too much into that post, I meant no ill will

Any Wick/Springfield final?

35-7 Pride...

Remember when Hartwick people wondered why they weren't getting respect? This is why

Who was begging?  Who ever said we should have been ranked in any region polls?  Who ever said they would beat anyone?  I don't ever remember anyone bragging...

We all knew we lost a lot last year.  It is tough to lose an all time D3 player and expect the same results.  We should throw all efforts against UC, get to 5-3...and then see if we can play tough against Fisher.

If I were an IC fan, I would worry more about not getting thumped by Springfield, Alfred, and Cortland.  You should also be worried about why IC let someone as disgusting looking as Steve Phillips girlfriend into your school...I expected that from RPI maybe...but not IC...

Read what I wrote. I didn't say bragging. I said someone was wondering why they didn't get any respect at 4-0. These last three weeks are why. How am I stating anything but a fact? You were 4-0, and people were saying wait until the schedule got tougher before getting excited.

Before the IC game, from Bosox:

"Most people complain about a weak schedule and Hartwick wont get any credit until they beat Ithaca or Fisher (recent years Fisher) or both... and even when they do that most people on here act like its a fluke instead of giving them credit... its no secret"

That sure sounds like someone playing the "we get no respect" card to me...

Yeah, we probably should worry about those games. Very few people have been tougher on IC than I have.

Ohhhh a Brooke Hundley joke! How witty! You should text that to Boltus.


Who do you think thought of the joke?  Didn't you know Boltus was also on the verge of curing cancer and bringing down Osama bin Laden all on is own?

BoSox wasn't playing the no respect card...what he said is pretty much the truth.  It has nothing to do with trying to gain respect...if you are trying to get that on here...you are an idiot.  Utica got more credit for playing IC tough this year then Wick did for beating them 2 years ago.  It happens...oh well.  Part of that is DewCrew using about 30%-40% of the ATR write up each week for UC...but you get the idea.  We lost today to a very good Springfield team.  If we are that bad...who is your signature win against this year?  2-5 SLU, 3-4 Widener, or the "upstart" 3-4 Utica Pioneers? 

Dude, he said twice that Hartwick gets no credit for their wins and it clearly bothered them.

You're right, Ithaca doesn't have a signature win yet. Again, who said they did? I certainly never did. If you look at my history of posts, I'm one of the most cynical Bomber fans you'll find.

Utica got more credit because, unlike Hartwick, they'd never beaten IC, and except for one year, got obliterated each game. At least that's my opinion. So to some degree, it's not that suprising that Hartwick gave them a game.

Right on the money. Go back and look at those scores for IC-UC since 2001, when UC started football. I was there for that 66-0 mess. Of course, that's part of it. And for the record, I don't have 30 percent of my column dedicated to Utica. It's like 15. Maybe 20. Yanks, you're kinda being a jackass.

Daddy Dew Crew...Would 20-25% have been less offensive then 30-40%?  Chill out dude...I was only making a point.  It's no secret you don't like Hartwick...that is fine...but aren't you being a bit sensitive on this one?  Is it that time of the month again?

And who cares about the 66-0 loss in 2001?  That was 8 years ago.  Hartwick isn't that old of a program either...but you don't hear me using a loss when players on the current roster were 9-10 years old as a reason that we should get props for keeping a game close in 2009.

We shall see Bombers when your Bombers face the Pride. Wick losing to what seems to be a very decent triple option running Springfield isn't really that bad of a loss in dlip's mind. The Pride has been in his top ten ERP for most of 09. Wick has not gotton respect in the past three years because they had Lord Boltus taking the snaps but the D was less dense than ****in chicken cloth. Either way Wick has seemed to bounce back better in 09 than dlip thought they would post-Boltus and have proved that they aren't a "horrible" team but one that opponents must take somewhat seriously on a weekly basis. The Pride may just be for real with Josh Carter coming into his own running that offense. he is no Sharpe but his apptern of success here in his soph year is reminisant of Sharpes rise to prowess. To be honest, dlip has always liked Ithaca (especially here in 09 because of Grastorf) but the Bombers have probably been one of the most overrated teams in the nation here in 09 and as of lately been getting "Too much" respect for not such great results on the field.

My two cents...from what I hear in Oneonta Wick really thought they should have had IC, had a few opportunities slip through their hands against SC (7-7 at half time)...but that Alfred was the real deal and took it too them pretty good.

An All-State running back out of a great football program in Dolgeville.  His best game was probably a 328 yard performance against CNY power Onondaga in the sectional semifinal last year.  Two of his touchdowns in that game were for over eighty yards....  he has big play potential.  He was also a track stud in the 100 and 200 in high school...

They were very, very excited about him early in the year, but then he had a hamstring issue.  He's their fastest back, and a big boy at 6' 2".   Just from the radio, it sounds like he sees the field pretty well too.

It's starting to clarify a little in the E8 that AU is #1, either SJF or Springfield at #2 and the other at #3 w/IC at 4 and Hartwick & UC bringing up the rear.  The SJF/Springfield game will be interesting.  AJF didn't do too well with a similar offense in Salisbury, but performed much better vs. AU than Springfield did.

Well Fisher does not look good at all coming out after the bye. First offensive possesion and they have a drop, a fumble (recovered by Fisher), and a confusion time out. Also, almost snap the punt over the punters head, but they get it down and get a good bounce. Not a great looking start.

Wow...maybe I was WAY too harsh on the Bombers. Still early but maybe they can stay in the one.

Fisher D gets off the field, 3 and out, on their first opportunity. Penalties hurt SC. But another good bounce in a punt and Fisher starts at their own 3.

Fisher was backed up to their own 1 yard line, but a too many men in the huddle on defense against SC, gives fisher a 3rd and 1. They pick it up, and go 97 yards for a touchdown. 7-0 Fisher late in the first.

Also, this game may set the record for shortest game ever. 22 minutes from kickoff and their is under a minute left in the first quarter.

Big sack for Sawyer to get off the field again. Could be a big possession for Fisher. If they can score and get a two score lead, it puts SC in a position they really do not like to be in. They have to play from behind and move the ball quickly.

Cardinals convert on 3rd and 9, and move the sticks...

You're right Jose. He's looked not great with his accuracy...

Here's what I want to know: Where was this effort all season? Seriously, I know the game isn't over, but who saw this happening? 17-3 at the break?

Maybe it's Ruggerio who is the key, but I don't remember there being holes like this for Bergerstock to run through either.

And two sacks? Hello, pass rush. It's been awhile...

You know what? I might have been wrong about this game...

But I'm going to hold off on anything. This team allowed 34 second half points to Fisher and 27 to Springfield. They've been outscored in the 2nd half this season, and have played some pretty bad 3rd quarters. Can't complain about anything, except the crossed wires that led to the interception.

A huge turnaround in the early stages of the second half. Fisher gets a big stop on 4th and short, and Fisher brings the ball down the field and scores to go up 21-0. Big swing in momentum. If SC scores their they are right back in it. Now Fisher can keep the ball in front of them, and really drain that clock.

I just noticed that IC's kicker is wearing a hand-warmer around his waist.  Why the DLip would a kicker need a hand warmer?  Kickers are so weird.

Look at what RPI, Springfield, AU and Albright have done today vs. Bart, SJF, IC and DelVal.

Nope. We lost to Springfield, 'member? And AU wins the tiebreaker over SJF.

SO if Hartwick AND Utica manage to win next week, Ithaca probably gets the AQ.

If Alfred wins, Alfred gets it.

If Alfred loses and SJF wins, SJF gets it.

Congrats AU!

Good luck in the NCAAs!!!

I really like the way AU gets the ball in Manzers hands, he really reminds me of Noah.  They put him at RB, in the shotgun and run him down the seam vs LBers, they move him all over the place.  He's something special this year. 

Hopefully Secky and Manzer stay hot in the post season and make some noise!

It's so out of character for AU to do something like that, maybe it was a pre-established read and it's an automatic check to the fade.  It's certainly not like Coach Murray to try and embarrass people. I understand you want to look good but Utica has done nothing to stop you.  Run the ball, no need to throw it inside the 10.

Since I gave IC hell all season, it's only fair to give them credit. To finish the season 7-3 with all the losses they had last season (and then during this season) is quite a feat.

The Bombers will always say privately that the NCAA's are the goal, but all this considered, this was a good year. They handed Alfred their only loss, and beat a 7-3 Cortland team. That's two quality wins.

Next year will be interesting. Toughest games all on the road, but they're not losing the talent they did last season. Go Bombers!

Additionally, congrats to Alfred and good luck in the NCAA's.  I think the E8 is a hell of a conference.  In the last 5 years I believe that the only school that hasn't won the conference is Utica.  That shows just how good this conference is.  Represent us well AU...and for god's sake, please get out of the first round!!!

Could be the difference between a 3 and 4 seed for Alfred.  If Fisher can slip into the final regional rankings, that would help the Saxon's cause...

And thanks all for the well wishes.  It's certainly nice to know what looking forward to a playoff game feels like and I hope the Saxons can represent the E6 well.

Oh, and here's my guess for the East matchups in the MUC bracket:
Del Valley 2 vs. Susquehanna 7
Alfred 3 vs. Albright 5
Montclair 4 vs. Maine Maritime 6

Not pretty at all...but I'll give them credit...down 2 scores they drove down and had a TD called back and then turned the ball over on downs.  Could have quit...but pulled it together.  This won't cut it against IC, SJF, etc...but we have some time to get things right.  Huge win though...you lose that game, and it really sticks with you the rest of the way...

Well, Bombers get the job done and return the favor to Union. Can't say I liked the 4th quarter much, but when you're up 28-7 after three, you can get away with it. Defense made some big plays, but got a little passive in the 4th.

Elsewhere around the E8 (AKA, a bunch of games against nobodies ;) )

Fisher stomps Buff State 54-26

Springfield embarrasses Husson 51-0

What a disaster for Alfred right now.

31-0 Bombers. Bombers still can't run the ball (2.6 YPC) but Zappia is 23-for-34 for 252 yards, 4 TD's and zero picks.

As good as it is that the Bombers are 3-0 (Yes, I'm assuming) this lack of a running game is just going to kill them against better teams. The O-Line just can't open the holes.

So Utica goes up 35-21. E8 looking like they may get another solid win against the LL. The Pioneers need to watch the turnovers. Not going to beat IC or SJF turning it over that much

As for Hartwick..meh...uninspiring at best.

Alfred gets it down to the 1 and runs out the clock.  24-16 final.  Whew.

I might nudge Alfred down a spot or two, depending on the other results today.  It'll be interesting to see where, if at all, Alfred will land in the Top 25 tomorrow night.

To me, a team like Alfred, who doesn't play quality OOC teams, really needs to win impressively against these bad teams

This is a serious question...Didn't Ithaca struggle a bit against St. Lawrence?  Are they just an improved team?

An Ithaca team with 6 suspended starters beat St. Lawrence by 30 points

Ah, yes. Ithaca was missing their top three pass-catchers, which explains the slow offensive start. Could be that St. Lawrence is better, but Alfred winning that game by 8 just looks bad to me.

St. Lawrence is improved I'm sure.  They also have a head coach that has beaten Alfred a lot over the last 10 years at Ithaca.

That being said, Norwich has a decent football history and could also be an improved team.

I haven't looked it up so I don't know about their pre-E8 program, but as far as I know, Norwich has an awful football history with the exception of last year in that awful league they're now in.

Certainly a win that felt like a loss to a less than stellar team.  Upon further contemplation, it felt almost exactly like the FDU game last year.  Second game of the year, at a lower ranked team, Secky played poorly and Alfred snuck out a win.  Certainly the 2010 Saxons are a work in progress and seem like the 2009 team without Manzer and Hendrix, but they also are 2-0 and played well after a similar struggle last year so they could do the same again this year.

Just got back from Norwich. The first half was very fun to watch, despite some undisciplined penalties from the Cadets and Hartwick being unable to finish the job on several great TD opportunities. The second half, though, Norwich's offensive line was able to do whatever it wanted. 352 rushing yards the whole day? Insane.

I was also surprised by the statline for Casimano. He had one big run, but was stifled the rest of the day and never seemed to really get momentum. Hartwick needs to do a better job of controlling the tempo, on both sides of the ball, if they're going to have any chance at playing spoiler in the E8/E6 this season.

Doesn't count as an E8 score, but Mount Ida up 15-13 on Norwich at the half. Could this be a let-down game from the Cadets after their monkey-stomping of the Hawks?

TD Lycoming on the 1-yard TD run. 14-13 IC, and we could have the makings of a surprise shootout.

IC feeling the loss of Dan Higgins, the starting long-snapper. Snap goes over the head of Rogowski on the punt, it's recovered inside Ithaca's 25. Still 14-13 IC, but possibly not for much longer.

Another year, another Bomber team that can't win tough road games. The names change, the results never do. Make them work on the road and you can bet on them not pulling it out at the end.

This is just how it works. Hold Coney to nothing on the ground at home, allow 232 rushing yards on the road.

It's too bad. This team could have gone 9-1 and made the NCAA's. But it's clear the team shouldn't even bother with the running game, and teams can just do nothing but load up on the pass.

Anxiously awaiting the annual evisceration at the hands of Fisher....

Tough loss, but Lycoming's a solid team. As I said in the pick-em thread, there's no shame in losing by a TD at Rowan in the opener.

Reset, pick it up for next week against Hartwick.

To all Bomber posters:

Tough game for both teams - if you look at the stats - and to be sure they only tell part of the story - the teams were fairly evenly matched in overall figures.  Too many penalties for my taste, though.  And a bit surprising in the rushing category too.

Lycoming was down 4 - 1 to I in the series so it does leave a good taste to get one from you guys - the other being an OT win several years ago.

Good luck the rest of the way - Will Carter - had a career day for tackles IMHO.

As an IC fan, I'm hoping King coming back for the Hartwick game revitalizes the run game a bit. I don't know how much one guy can help, but at 6'6", 290, and being a senior, his presence sure couldn't hurt. However, the loss of Peck doesn't help matters.

Tough loss, but Lycoming's a solid team. As I said in the pick-em thread, there's no shame in losing by a TD at Rowan in the opener.

Reset, pick it up for next week against Hartwick.

Yeah, Lycoming's solid, but this was a choke job. They had two possessions late in the 4th quarter with the lead and couldn't pick up a first down on any of them. That's what good teams do. Lycoming made the plays when they needed to. The Bombers didn't.

Everything the Bombers earned two weeks ago is basically for naught. Their only hope now is to win the conference and we know how that movie goes.

Yeah...I've been watching that one.  Ugly...ugly game.  24-10 Utica now after a Wilkes FG.  About 4:30 to go.  If Utica plays like this they aren't beating any of the top 4 teams in the E8.

IC loses...Wick makes no noise as they are off, but with Norwich losing, it makes their loss look worse...Utica looked terrible...in conference game (AU-SC) is a trade off...all of this is a "tough" day...

But if Fisher loses, this would be a horrific week for the E8...

Nice win for the Saxons. This game stood as an acid test, and in beating a solid Springfield team, it shows they still have something left from last year's E8 title-winning team.

And Pat, how does one procure one of these "magic hookups?" You should go into business, you'd make a fortune! ;)

this is going to sound very conceded and high brow but the Fisher game tonight looked like a varsity team playing a JV team. I know Hobart is good and I think they will win ent of games this year, but fsher was just that much more physical, faster, and organized than the Statesmen. A very good showing for the cards.

Where's Pep when you need him?

The Utica/Wilkes feed is back up though!!

Wilkes is a big strong team and it's interesting to see the Utica team struggle with the Wilkes size and strength so far!

Pep has just returned to Mayberry after an 18-hour excursion extraordinaire with a trumpet, a trombone, a flute, a clarinet and a snare drum. Kudos to the band for putting in a hard day's work. Kudos to Springfield on a well played game. Kudos to the Saxons for a nicely balanced offensive attack and a solid defensive effort. Great game!

AU was near the red zone late in the first half, ready to extend its 14-7 lead but a Secky pass was picked off and returned to the AU 22 and SC tied it up just before the half, 14-14. Pep was pleased that the Saxons overcame their adversities and made some clutch plays during "Crunch Time" to come homewith a W. As always, a nice crowd of mostly parents at the game supporting the Saxons.

Pep was impressed with the outstanding play of Hornell's Austin Dwyer (168 yards rushing, 3 catches, 32 yards, with 2 rushing TDs and 1 TD catch.)

On Saxon Warriors!

Fisher played much better, but Hobart dug themselves a big hole early with the missed FG, fumble at their own 40, then failing on 4th down at the SJF 25 yrd line, giving up the punt block (also on Hobart's side of the field)...

I was on the Statesmen sideline for the first half and they were visibility frustrated with how poorly they were playing.

To Fisher's credit they took advantage of all of Hobart's miscues and ran the ball very well against the Statesmen.  Seemed like Hobart was dropping a lot of guys into coverage so you typically had 6 Fisher blockers on Hobart's 4 (relatively inexperienced) DL.

That said, a definite statement win for SJFC who rightfully is in the Top 25.

This might be my main complaint about DIII football; it is so frustrating to see so many XPs go unconverted. I know, I know how hard it is to find a kicker at this level, but still. Hell when I was at IC our starting first basemen was the PK. (Ok, he was on the soccer team too...)

The stats would say otherwise.  Ferguson is on the record as having one PAT.  I believe he just kicked off.  But, ICs kicking game is confusing this year.  Rogowski is a kid that is up for the Mitchell award and has just killed it the last two years.  This year he has just been terribly inconsistent.

Jeez, hartwick's RB just fell down on his way to the house.... i don't know who this is more embarrassing for....

Did they score on that drive?

How much time is left?  I think yanks is playing Dad today

They got a FG on it.
How does hartwick's new QB look

Really good at times, really bad at others. Made a great throw into the corner of the endzone, about 30 yards, one second before getting slammed. Another time was being tackled so just threw it in the air a la Favre.... came down into the waiting hands of Conti.... 2 TDs, 3 INTs, take your pick...

Not positive but I think it was 4 INTs.  I think Leimer and Conti each had 2.

Well hopefully the game will slow down for him after his first big test...at least he showed signs... just worried if he'll ever have time to throw

Not really that impressed with Ithaca going into next weekend...

If they had a running game to keep people at least honest I'd be thinking otherwise but there's just no balance on that offense...

Slightly impressed with Wick's new QB, if he can cut down on the turnovers he'd be pretty good...

Yeah, the live stats weren't working so we'll have to wait.  I could be wrong, but I've only been wrong once before...back in '95.  Tough year for me.

Horrid start for SJF...

Get great field position on a kick return, but a dead ball unsportsmanlike foul brings it back 15 yards...

They fumble on the first play and Utica recovers...

Utica goes 35 yards and scores 7-0 Utica...

11:25 left in 1st...

7-7...

Just listened to a bit of the UC-SJF game, trying to find some positives to take away for IC's game next week.

At least Utica seems to be driving with ease, and doing a lot of it through the air. That's all I got.

Doesn't sound like Bailey's running up against much either though....

Are we going to have a 100-point game here? on pace...

SJF actually forces Utica to punt and takes the ensuing possession 80 yards to take a 28-21 lead...

Key play was a 46 yard bomb by Bailey to Francis...

Bailey for the HALF is 12-15, 187 3 TDs

2:30 left in half...

SJF with 327 yards of offense at the half compared to Utica's 187...

SJF is losing the turnover battle 0-2 as Baily threw a pick towards the end of the 2nd QTR with under 30 seconds left on a bomb.  He had Francis but he bobbled it and Utica grabbed it out of the air...

That was a very undisciplined effort by Fisher...

They won on sure talent and size alone from an offensive standpoint...

I really wouldn't have wanted to have seen what Utica could have done with their best WR playing tonight...

The SJF D failed to get pressure on Benkwitt tonight and it cost them.  He had a ton of time tonight and the run game out of the pistol offense gave SJF fits...

Going to need a heck of a lot better effort next week...

Kudos to Utica for playing a tough game, if they could get a defense they'd be really good...

Benkwitt and that offense is legit...

Long ball by Secky picked off deep in Hartwick territory, under a minute to play.

9 rushes, 5 yards...you can't change talent in 20 minutes.

Why do we have to sugarcoat it? Fisher's a better program than Ithaca right now. It's been five straight seasons of blowouts. Why do we have to pretend that the two are equals or that this is a true rivalry? Fisher owns Ithaca. There's no way to debate it, tweak the evidence, say "Well, you know if this, this and this."

Optimism is well and good, but attempting to deny factual evidence that's clearly laid out is just pointless

The team is a downer. I can't really put a positive spin on half-a-decades worth of blowouts. I've felt for years that the program rests on it's laurels. I think they're content to just keep churning out 7-3/8-2 seasons.

Which, in totality, is fine. There's nothing wrong with winning seven to eight games a year. I'm sure there are lots of programs who'd like to be able to do that.

But when you have a program like Fisher, which has the guts to schedule MUC in the regular season, and says "We want to be the team in NY State you have to go through," then being content with what 7 to 8 win season is how you get embarrassed. One program appears to be content with what they are and living off their name. The other isn't. That's why they win and we lose

I think it was that middle pattern.  A great pattern against a 3 man rush like Ithaca had on that play.  No one for IC in the deep middle which they should have with 8 players in coverage.

Up till this drive (this half) IC had done a good job against SJF on defense.  I might have gone for it too though.

Yeah, but you're going to need to score three times, and with the the new clock rules, it's harder to come back. It wouldn't have mattered, I would have just liked to see Ithaca keep with it. If you're going to be going for it on 4th downs, keep that do-or-die mentality

Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Jonny Utah on October 09, 2010, 07:22:12 PM
I think SJF's line size was the big factor in this game.  IC runs out of room when they get inside the 20 yard line and you need to be able to pound for a few yards when you are down there.  They couldn't do it and it cost them.

Then SJF's oline made some big pushes when they needed it.

I thought both teams skill positions played real well and made some big plays all over the field.  SJF just had 2 or 3 too many big plays.

I'm not sure if SJF has a national championship running game or running backs, but if they keep teams guessing with a nice balance, they can make a run.  They had a lot of open receivers today though.  They are going to need to make those passes with some tighter covereges down the stretch.

Post by: theoriginalupstate on October 09, 2010, 07:28:50 PM
I thought IC's smaller front 7 did well vs the run, the moved well and caused some confusion in the linemans assignments...

They played the zone read from the shot gun very well all game...

Wasn't really that impressed with the secondary as there were a ton of Fisher WR's open all game...

There were some very uncharacteristic drops by them but they made plays when catching the ball...

I was really surprised to see IC go 5 wide empty backfield on 4th and 1, either they liked a match up or wanted no part in running the ball...

Fisher's D did a great job of tightening down when in the redzone, the run D was great inside there...

They got some good pressure when they needed to...

How the Bombers respond will be very interesting. Two weeks off before Springfield should give them the time to prepare, but it's got to be disappointing after the huge Union win to be 4-2...

I think they're going to be ok against SU because of the LB play, but Utica in three weeks is going to be very interesting
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Old IC Voice on October 09, 2010, 07:56:19 PM
Not a surprising outcome. IC wasn't able to control the clock due to their lack of a run game, and with Bailey the QB he is, the secondary problems were exploited pretty well. Conti is solid, but White has been underwhelming since missing Cortaca '09. I always thought he was a safety playing corner; solid hitter with OK hands, but his cover skills aren't anything to write home about and he's a threat for a dumb penalty at any moment.

I agree with Bombers in that IC should be OK against Springfield. The Pride don't play well at Butterfield, and the Bombers and their 3-4 ought to at least limit what Carter and Co. can do out of the option. The Utica game could end up being the equivalent of a scoreboard's pre-game light test with how fast points will be scored. Whoever has the ball last probably wins.

I think IC will be fine against SC. since they are at home, and have a week off. But I think UC will give them trouble with that high powered offense. Shoule be a fun one.

Pep, Pep Sr and Kaz are watching the Alfred-RPI game in Herrick Library

Smoke Lopez fumbles at the Alfred 40 on the opening drive.

Alfred D holds the Engineers after a big run got them inside the red zone.  3-0, RPI with 11 minutes left in the first.

RPI taking it to the Saxons.  10-0, Engineers with 8 minutes left in the first.

Another 3 and out for the Saxons who are obviously struggling from the RPI announcer calling Secky "Seeky".  3 possessions, a turnover and two muffed punts for Alfred.

RPI converts again.  17-0, Engineers with 4 minutes left in the first.

Snap goes over Secky's head.  RPI recovers at their own 20.

Alfred brought the pressure, Hermann got levelled, but still completed the TD pass.  24-0, RPI with 27 seconds left in the first.  Thankfully this quarter is about to end...

AU holds RPI on their first possesson of the second half, then drives to the 15 and settles for a FG by Rockwood. 24-10 midway thru third quarter.

AU goes 77 yards culminated with a TD pass to Thon....RPI 24, AU 17 with 5 mins to go in third.

UC tried to run the ball way more then I thought they would.  I think they should have passed way more.  Then at the end of the game, with about 4 minutes left, UC had the ball at the SC 11 yard line.  It was 4th down, they were down 20-13...and decided to kick a FG (which they made) after the kicker had already missed a PAT and a 23 yard FG???

Strange move...UC kicked it deep, and SC essentially ran out the clock.  My mistake on the score...final score was 20-16 SC.

Offense looked a bit sloppy, too many fumbles today.  Francis had ball go right through his hands that would have been a sure TD.

Defense had 7 picks, and essentially only allowed Hartwick to have two good drives at the start of the 2nd...

They got it done today but are going to have to be much sharper next weekend vs AU...

Even if it was questionable, that's for journalists to report, not the SID. Most the Dept. should say is "disputed," but I'm not sure it was even that.

This Alfred loss kills IC...now, if they run the table and Fisher loses to Springfield, rather than being able to win a 3-way tiebreak via SOS, it would be a 2 way tie between IC and Fisher. So the conference race is essentially over for IC.

Edit...whoops I forgot that the Cardinals 1st loss was in conference...so IC is still alive

It doesn't change anything.  If anything, it kills Ithaca's chances and makes Alfred come back firing to play Ithaca. 

Nope, my first post was wrong. This is largely ceremonial, but could this lead to a slide for Alfred? They could be fired up, or they could get into a funk...

If Fisher and AU win next week AU still gets the auto bid right?
How about that.
Fisher will be higher ranked, better record and still lose the auto bid.

It happened when Hartwick won the AQ over SJF and ended up losing to Curry in the first round...

Bombers throw deep from their own 40 and get the TD, but a penalty takes it back...

In the interest of fairness...

I know there was still 12 minutes to go, but you're up by 24 against a team that has scored 6 points and fumbled 4 times. No need for that

No, they don't.  Someone can run the table.  It has happened before.  In each one of these teams losses, there have been GAPING holes in performance.  I really believe that the East is not on par with the other regions.

Given the way they select the tournament no, no one can say that MUC should not be in the east. It goes back to the argument as to how they select the tournament. I still have an issue with bringing teams from other regions in when wins against out of region teams don't count for your resume overall.

You're right, if regional results weren't a criteria used for selection it wouldn't be an issue if they brought in UMU...

Frank, the reason MUC keeps getting shipped year is because none of these teams can get out of their own way in conference play...it's not the "intermixing". Sure, Cortland in 2008 and Montclair last season ran the table and lost to OOC teams, but what stopped IC in 2008? A conference game. What stopped Fisher in 2007? A conference game. What's stopping the NJAC this year? Conference games. When's the last time a LL team went undefeated in conference? 2005--the same year the E8 had their last unbeaten conference team.

Even when you consider the OOC games, there's no reason Alfred shouldn't be unbeaten right now. Rochester is a joke and RPI is a middle-of-the-pack team in a mediocre conference. It's not like the Red Dragons losing Cortaca in 2008 to a loaded Ithaca here.

Bombers, go to the ERPD PP and read my post from Thursday night.  It's much tougher to go undefeated in the East than in the other regions based on the current setup.  Let's move this discussion back to there and feel free to debate my points there.

This has to be one of those "that's as bad as we can possibly play, but we're still in it" moments for IC.  Just like Utica last year.  Unfortunately....AU isn't UC.  Hopefully IC can come out, get a stop and punch one in and make this interesting.  

It starting snowing there and it looks cold.  Really cold.

Post by: boobyhasgameyo on November 06, 2010, 02:46:07 PM
Hey Hey Hey Pride.  Well to be honest guys I'd rather not want to see this Fisher team in the playoffs.  I guessed they would finish around 8-2 when the season began, sipped some of the Fisher kool aid around the middle of the season, and then got a slap of reality in the past few weeks.  The offense this year when healthy could probably compete with anybody...but as I said before the defense would be our downfall.  I don't think it's in bad taste to say you'd prefer another defensive coordinator.  The defense has seemed to worsen under his reign.  Also that "yard sale" chant has got to be one of the most asinine things I have ever seen a team do.  It is annoying.  It does not have any value as every time they chant it the other team converts.  That one is on coach Vos for allowing that to continue all season.  

I'm not all doom and gloom about this either.  I have just seen the light.  Fisher had a great offense and a defense that just doesn't cut it.

On third downs, SJF chants yard sale...

Why they do it, is beyond me...

honest to god i really thought that this could have been the season Fisher got back to the final 4.
I really wish AU well and hope they represent the E8 well.
Please play well

This remains the unanswered question of the season. Pep doesn't get it. Pep loves the crowd getting into games, but doesn't care too much for sideline cheers of teammates during a game. Too reminiscent of Ms. Pep's Cinderella softball games, chewing gum, ponytails and sing-along cheers and chatter.

As was pointed out by a Fisher poster, if its intent is to intimidate the opponent on third down plays, at least against Alfred, it didn't' work.

It was an embarassment all season long.  Obviously it didn't pump up the defense or intimidate the opposing team's offense.  It just seems so low class for a team to be chanting something.  Leave that crap in modified football.

7-0, battle of the Maritimes.

Extra point must have missed.  6-0, Maine-Maritime. Early first quarter.

Ithaca misses a 34 yd field goal.  Still 0-0 at Cortaca.

Endicott had a nice drive and on a third and long a receiver looked to have picked up the first down after leaping a defender only to lose the ball and have it roll out of bounds behind the marker.

Touchdown Endicott.  7-6, Gulls.  Still first quarter.

Looks like Max' boy made a big play.  47 yard reception for Jamison leads to an Ithaca touchdown.  7-0, Bombers 6 1/2 left in the first.

Cortland converts a field goal after a stalled drive.  7-3, Ithaca.

Endicott FG off a Maritime fumble with 9 minutes left in the half.  10-6, Gulls.

Touchdown Alfred with under a minute to play in the half. 14-9, Utica.

Utica fumbles the kickoff. Secky hits a fuzzy, white receiver with 4 seconds left for an Alfred TD. 16-14, Alfred at the half.

On Saxon Warriors!

Interception for Alfred on Utica's opening drive of the half followed by a long pass and run from Secky to Pope for a TD. 23-14, Alfred.

Another TD for Alfred.  Short yardage by Clark. 30-14, Alfred.

Smoke on the water! Chris Lopez rumbles down the field and pounds it in.  37-14, Alfred 8 minutes left in the fourth. That touchdown to end the half really took the wind out of Utica's sails.

Utica scores a touchdown (against Alfred second string?).  Two point conversion results in a sack.  37-20, Alfred with 4:30 left.

Final from Utica. 37-20, Alfred.

JU: Give the IC radio kids some time. It's their first game of the season after a long break of not doing games of any variety; I know I was rusty my first game in '09, but got to the point where that year's Cortaca game is what I send as a demo tape.

I should say that its more the sound quality and background crowd noise than the actual announcers.

Brockport manages a late drive, but the last play of the game is an overthrown pass. Final score: IC 19, Brockport 14.

Certainly not an easy game to sit through, but it's a win. The defense looked pretty good, aside from the one big 81-yard touchdown pass. On the flip side, the turnovers were an issue, 79 rushing yards isn't great, and the QB-by-committee status is just puzzling.

For what it's worth, in their scrimmage last week Alfred and Brockport both played their first teams for just the first quarter, and at the end of that quarter it was 20-0 Alfred. Obviously a scrimmage isn't a real game, but i'd be concerned if I were Ithaca right now.

With the exception of the 2 picks, Ithaca hasn't looked bad.  The defense had their backs against the wall on the 2nd TD drive that was setup by the INT.  14 points allowed is pretty good considering the two picks.  Score should be 14-7 but the pick in the end zone killed IC.  Hopefully the offense can come out with a score here to start the 2nd or else the defense might start to wear down.

With the exception of the 2 picks, Ithaca hasn't looked bad.  The defense had their backs against the wall on the 2nd TD drive that was setup by the INT.  14 points allowed is pretty good considering the two picks.  Score should be 14-7 but the pick in the end zone killed IC.  Hopefully the offense can come out with a score here to start the 2nd or else the defense might start to wear down.
..and they go three and out.  Could get ugly from here.
Botched punt return!  That could be the break IC needs.  Ball at the 40.

Seems like Sulla is running well, considering they must be overloading against the run.  Only 58 net yards passing by IC, very one dimensional.  If the new QB makes a few big completions, that might open it up for Sulla.

That should do it.  IC had their chance inside the 20 with 7 minutes to go but the dropped pass on 3rd and 5 really cost them.  Most likely would have been first and goal with a chance to tie.  Vossler, we miss you.

Well, the Bombers clearly can't pass the ball at all. Hendel, Nuemann, it doesn't matter. They simply won't be scoring much this year. Seven turnovers and three touchdowns in two weeks.

On the other hand, the Bombers' defense continues to look excellent. Two weeks, 28 points allowed, and considering how good Salisbury's supposed to be, and that Will Carter was again not starting, you have to think every game is going to be this sort of battle.

Six picks on the season, two scores. Granted, Salisbury is good, but ugh.

Hendel had eight carries for 41 yards. To me, that's the difference maker between the two. Someone has to make plays, and at least he can do it with his feet.

Sulla was solid, 13 carries for 52 yards, but that's not going to get the job done with this QB situation.

Yes, Hendel was pretty agile today and had a few good runs.  That 8 carries probably includes a sack or two so that skews the averages.  Agreed with your assessment of Sulla - he is quick and had a few good runs.  I figured the team would be 3-1 going into the bye in 2 weeks.  They need to bounce back next week with a solid performance against Union and then take care of Hartwick before the meat of the schedule hits.  Salisbury is good, but will not go undefeated in the E8.  Ithaca showed signs of promise today and if they can figure the QB situation out, can be very dangerous.  If not, every game will be like you said, a battle.

Likely a combo plate....or, in Rochester, a garbage plate? Buff State definitely on the rise with Boyes, Fisher O-line very young, inexperienced. But another half to go.

Seems to me Boyes has rebuilt Buffalo State into a good team but they don't have depth yet.  This is 2 weeks in a row they win the first half and lose the second half against a good program.

Union fought hard and played yet another close game. These kids are working hard and dlip won't take anything away from them. He continues to love this team but at the same time must be as objective as he can be in his observations. Something needs to be done with this secondary and this defense overall. The secondary has been poor for awhile now but it is really becoming an achiles heal for the Dutchmen.

Union is just killing themselves. A fumble on their first play of the game led to a FG and put them down 10-0, and then, down 20-7, they fumble a punt they caught at the IC 34...Union is trying to put together a last minute drive...on their own 45 with 24 seconds to go
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Bombers798891 on September 17, 2011, 02:28:06 PM
I gotta wonder. Down 20-7, Union sacked Hendel with 46 seconds to go in the half to set up 2nd and like 19. Then Union called a timeout, and Hendel threw a 36-yard TD pass with 37 seconds to go. Seemed like an odd timeout. Now, maybe IC would have called it anyway, but to that point, IC hadn't completed a pass longer than 10 yards, so I'd have to think Welch would be cautious with a 20-7 lead. I wonder though, if the timeout made him sat, "What the heck" and go for it. I just don't know what the upside to a TO in that situation. Barring a turnover, even if you get a stop, you've got maybe 30 seconds to go what, 60 yards to get into FG range?
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: bomber3 on September 17, 2011, 02:36:45 PM
I think IC found their quarterback - hendel is 12-15 for 106 and a TD in the first half with no turnovers.

I haven't done the math, but I would be interested in how the returns in Division III against Division I, compare to what the average ability of a field goal kicker at each level is? In other words, does returning a ball to the 35 in DIII give a team, statistically, the same shot of at least getting a field goal as a DI return to the 20?

That's interesting. Maybe it just evens out. What the kicker costs you on the front end by not getting the ball as deep, you make up for by the other team's kicker not being as good, so suddenly, FG range isn't so close

That has always been my thought.But, I think a really good field goal kicker is such a huge advantage in Division III, because if you have a real good one, you are that close to field goal range. It just shortens how much you have to move the ball.

Someone has to explain to me how you can let a triple option team beat you with the pass when you're up 23-13 with 4:45 to go. You KNOW they're going to have to pass. And you give up a 73-yard TD?

Then at 23-20 with 1:21 to go and Salisbury with the ball on their own 25 with only 1 timeout. Again, it's pretty clear the pass is likely. Even if you rip off 15-yard runs, you need three to four of them to even get into FG range.

It's just sort of amazing that a team that usually only passes out of surprise is able to march down the field through the air, on the road no less. Astounding

I can't see anyone remaining on Hobart's schedule who can beat them. Wouldn't be surprised to see Alfred run the table too, which means low odds on Mount Union in the East bracket this season.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: AUKaz00 on September 24, 2011, 03:49:42 PM
Alfred still has at least 3 tough games left - @ Fisher, Salisbury and @ Ithaca.  I could see Hobart going 8-0, but would the committee make them a #1 seed?  I'd guess not.

That would be a pretty bad #1 seed. Dickinson stinks, and everyone else in the LL already has two losses. They'd need Fisher to go 9-1 to even be considered for that in my mind.

This is true bombers, but if they do go 8-0, they should at least get a top 2-4 seed in dlip's mind. Obviously the scheduling of 8 games is unfortunate if this team is indeed as good as they showed today. This scheduling will/should hurt them regarding the seedings though. At this point, to keep MUC the **** out, dlip is hoping both Bart and Alfred run the table. That is if Bart should beat Union in Shocktown, which is likely, but not a given. Either way dlip is very impressed with this win for the LL and for Bart. **** at least the conference has one OOC game to be proud of (mayyyyyyyyyybe 2 with U of R's win over CWR).
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: DanPadavona on September 25, 2011, 12:11:40 PM
I would assume Bart's resounding victory over Fisher will carry a lot of weight with the committee, as Fisher has been a fixture in the post-season for several seasons. But I agree that an 8 game schedule is weak and deserves a final rankings penalty.

Wick down 14-0 at halftime...moving the ball well enough...but stalling inside the 20 (fumbled once at the 15, and missed a 30 yard FG).  They need to punch one in early 3rd to keep this from getting out of hand.  One more score for IC without answering will be tough to recover from...

Wick secondary is better...but not all-world...though I don't think they have been playing that bad today.  Wick needs to start getting some pressure with the front four, as I don't think Hendel (I think that is his name) has been pressured too much yet.

That being said, IC passing offense has been pretty efficient today...no real long passes...just taking what the Wick defense is giving them, and it is working...

Following the IC-Wick livestats. Seems like a sloppy game, as each team's turned the ball over three times. Hendel's been OK but has also thrown two picks.

Bombers still lead 14-0 in the 4th quarter, but Wick is driving.

EDIT: And right after I post, Hartwick scores to cut it to 14-7 with 6:50 left.

WOW
Alfred looks pretty poor today and Fisher looks very motivated and focused in comparison. When you have Secky and Dwyer both having a bad day/second half that will spell trouble. dlip expected to see much more from the Saxons today.

*Why did dlip stop watching the game??? Simple, his daughter wanted to watch Yo Gabba Gabba  :)

WOW...

AU looks horrid, as I type this AU gets a punt blocked and Sal falls on it for a TD making it 69-0...

Something is really wrong with Secky, he was visibly frustrated as he threw the ball at a Sal player after being run out of bounds and was called for a unsportsmanlike foul.  I don't think he took another snap after that...

Bombers up on Springfield 27-25 at start of 4th quarter, after Rogowski 30-yard FG, culminating a nice drive with Pat Griffin at QB.

Pep, somewhat embarrassed by his Saxons' play today, warming up and drying out after being blown away at Merrill Field.

Springfield retakes lead on play action TD pass....Pride goes for two but misses. Pride 31-27.

I currently could see Salisbury being brought into the East-centric bracket despite the regional distinction based on the abundance of strong teams record-wise in the South vs. the East.  If Salisbury loses a game, that would change my opinion.

Salisbury & Endicott - 459 Miles
Salisbury & Kean - 211 Miles
Salisbury & DVC - 163 Miles
Salisbury & Widener - 121 Miles
Salisbury & Montclair - 222 Miles

If they wanted to Salisbury can certainly go to the East...

It would be a geographic head scratcher, but I would like to see Salisbury become officially Eastern Region since they are now a part of the E8. And frankly the region needs a Salisbury or Wesley to give it a legitimate #1 seed.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Frank Rossi on October 15, 2011, 10:35:17 PM
Note:  I still believe Mount Union would come into the East if Salisbury were the only undefeated team located in the East-centric bracket.  If the North has two or more other undefeated teams, I think the Committee's hand would be forced to spread out the undefeateds in such a way.  If Hobart and Salisbury are undefeated, we will have a very odd circumstance based on how the Committee views the 8-0 record.

Delaware Valley is 7-0 too. They've got a couple of tough games left, but still, you've got them in the mix. I think there are a few true East teams who could go 10-0 and be a legit #1 seed.

What would push Salisbury to the east?

Two of the 6 Pool C bids going to the South Region, SCAC and ASC.  My guess, for the sake of filling brackets would be Centre and the LaCollege/McMurry winner.

Right now, I see Pool A bids from the ODAC, Pres AC and USA South.

Wesley may be stronger than Huntingdon and CWRU for the Pool B bid.

There are the 8 teams for a South Region bracket

Kilcarr gets the start over Secky down at Frostburg.  He is undefeated as a starter.

Saxons force a Frostburg fumble and work the ball down to the goal line where they get stuffed on 4th and goal from inside the 1.

Alfred missed a FG, but roughing the kicker gives them a second life.  Dwyer takes a direct snap in.  XP partially blocked. 6-0, Alfred early in the second.

Jon Jackson INT results in a Saxon TD on a Kilcarr keeper. 13-0, Alfred.

Frostburg FG attempt hits the upright and is no good.  Alfred fumbles the ball after a completion and Frostburg converts it into 6.  13-7, Saxons with 4 minutes left in the half.

Congrats to Utica on a program defining win. They deserved it. The program has taken its lumps, but this is a victory to hang your hat on. Please don't let what follows take anything away from the win, but I'm going to vent

As for Ithaca...

The Bombers' offensive line is atrocious. I know, we're not supposed to rip on players, so I'll rip on a coaching staff that failed to recruit the position and fail to call plays to put the team in a position for success. But seriously, it's singlehandedly killed the team over the last two seasons. I've never seen a team so inept in close yardage situations.

First Quarter, first and goal from the two. Three runs gain one yard
Later in first, 3rd and 1 from the 4. Two yard loss
Fourth quarter, 1st and goal from the five. Four runs gain four yards

Three possessions inside the FIVE yard line gets them seven points.

Seriously. It's insanity. Literally, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Two straight years of this nonsense. I don't blame the players too much. They're trying, and I respect that, but I have to call it as I see it. The offensive line has, two years running, derailed the entire season.

Faggiano outcoached Welch. Called blitzes all day, knowing the Bombers could do nothing to stop them. Hats off to Blaise for a great job.

So much for the Bombers' streak of winning seasons. This team won't win three straight games. They'll be lucky to win one.

Three possessions inside the FIVE yard line gets them seven points.

Seriously. It's insanity. Literally, doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. Two straight years of this nonsense. I don't blame the players too much. They're trying, and I respect that, but I have to call it as I see it. The offensive line has, two years running, derailed the entire season.

Faggiano outcoached Welch. Called blitzes all day, knowing the Bombers could do nothing to stop them. Hats off to Blaise for a great job.

So much for the Bombers' streak of winning seasons. This team won't win three straight games. They'll be lucky to win one.
Will Pluff, the defensive coordinator, did a terrific job with his defense today... using No. 11, Zach Jensen, a wide receiver, as a rushing end/linebacker: he was in Neumann's way all day long.

Congrats to Utica on a program defining win. They deserved it. The program has taken its lumps, but this is a victory to hang your hat on. Please don't let what follows take anything away from the win, but I'm going to vent

As for Ithaca...

The Bombers' offensive line is atrocious. I know, we're not supposed to rip on players, so I'll rip on a coaching staff that failed to recruit the position and fail to call plays to put the team in a position for success. But seriously, it's singlehandedly killed the team over the last two seasons. I've never seen a team so inept in close yardage situations.

First Quarter, first and goal from the two. Three runs gain one yard
Later in first, 3rd and 1 from the 4. Two yard loss
Fourth quarter, 1st and goal from the five. Four runs gain four yards

Three possessions inside the FIVE yard line gets them seven points.

Absolutely. The Bombers were outcoached. But this is not a new development. 17 weeks of this stuff, and I've just had enough

Fisher scored a huge win today beating the Pride 33-6. I thought the Fisher offense moved the ball much better today than the first several games, and the SC defense is not terrible. Big win for the Cardinals.

Wow, what a Homecoming thriller at Frostburg State as Bobcats score a 4th-and-4 TD and kick the extra point in the second OT to beat the Saxons, 54-53. More than 1000 yards of offense between the two teams today.

Saxons (4-3), reeling from second straight Empire 8 loss to those Maryland outsiders (who invited those illegal immigrants into the Empire, anyway?  :D), travel to Rochester Saterday. Hoping AU can regroup and put together a solid effort to get back into winning form.

The Offense is playing with much more confidence and the play calling has definately improved.  I don't think they threw any WR screens today, Kramer was looking down the field much more than in the past.  The deeper pass routes created running lanes for Miller and Kramer.  Great balance today.

Very True. I have noticed that since Borum has gone down, Fisher has used more designed runs for Kramer, and Miller has looked great. Starting to get excited.

wow...exciting win I guess, but their offense is pedestrian at best.  Frostburg gives up pts like Salisbury scores 'em...

Yea...I mean just from a psych standpoint....Salisbury is going to be tough....while a loss might deflate a previously undefeated team, this Salisbury team can take some pride in their hard fought game against one of the best in the country on the road, then come home and realize that they are still undefeated where it matters most (E8), and gear up for a home 'play-off' game.

I agree, great job by Rogowski. All in all however, another disappointing day for the Bombers. When you need a great comeback to beat Frostburg at home, you have issues.

I know they made the plays at the end, but it's amazing the lack of playmakers this team has on offense. Ingaro has his moments, and Ruffrage is dangerous, especially in the open field, but it's a bare cupboard mostly. There's no deep threat, no tight end, and zero running game. The offensive line is no better than it was last season. Ah well. Here's hoping the Bombers can keep it up

Kramer runs the speed option very well, great reads and is alot faster than I first thought.  Miller runs extremely hard for a back his size on the inside.   When you mix in some counters, naked boots and sprint out passes it creates a very balanced offense.  Kramer throws the ball better on the run than from the pocket in my opinion.  Very tough to contain and seems to improve weekly.

The E8's down this year, which helps. Also, they've won both of the games that wound up being very close.

Hey, more power to them. You get the wins how you get the wins. Ithaca could pretty easily be 7-1 right now, and they could also pretty easily be 1-7. Fisher just keeps picking up the wins.

But I also think Utica was suffering from an Ithaca hangover. Understandable, but still, a sign that the team still has to grow. (Or, a sign that Ithaca just sucks a whole lot)

I didn't witness a "hangover".  Utica was really fired up at the beginning of this game.  Fisher scored quickly and went up 21-0 but Utica responded with some great D and 12 points(safety) of their own.  The momentum had definately shifted and the Utica sidelines were fired up.  Fisher responded with a score to go up 28-12 at the half.  Whenever Utica started to gain steam Fisher killed it.  Every week they seem to get better.  7-1 with no wouldah, couldah or shouldah.

Usually I wouldn't take the side of Fisher but I have been impressed with their play.  I doubt Utica had a hangover from Ithaca and if they did it was a level 7 hangover.  I must remind people of something.  One of the years Wesley went to the National Semifinals, they lost to a 5-5 Brockport something like 47-0 during the regular season.  It seems like that loss to Wesley was an anomaly and I think This Fisher team's loss to Hobart is too. To me, Fisher would have the chance to run the table in the East--- unfortunately, they'd probably face UMU in the 2nd round (as a 4 or 5 seed -- behind UMU, hobart, and Del Val).   
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Upstate on October 30, 2011, 01:03:46 PM
Make no mistake about it, Hobart took Fisher to the woodshed early and often and deserved the impressive win. Their offense was extremely efficient and Strang was outstanding. 

That being said I'd like to see a rematch without a team getting 3 weeks to prepare for the other team.

Touchdown Gulls.  Gut check time for Fisher, or this one could get away from them.

If SJF would stop killing themselves inside SU's redzone this would be a game, but mistake after mistake is killing them...

SJF can and has moved the ball on them each and every drive...

And another stalled drive inside the redzone...

0-3 in the redzone today...

3 of the 4 drives Salisbury pretty much drove down the field methodically (the last drive they just ran out of time).  I think if they can get at least one more drive like that the game is pretty much over (I mean, like a 8-9 minute drive).  I guess I feel differently from the others watching the game.  It seems as if the Gulls have been in control the whole time.

actually...SJF moved it methodically....Gulls broke a big one. 

They didnt run out of time, they missed a FG. 

The Gulls are pretty damn impressive though....I mean they have held AU, IC and SJF to 7 pts in 2011 so far...

Their drives have started like at the 50 a couple times.  Didn't they KICK the field goal because they had to kick it because time was running out?  If they had another minute they probably get into the endzone.

No uproar at all, it is possible to debate things w/o people getting in an uproar...

SJF had drives of 40, 67 and 36 yards that all ended in failed redzone chances (Downs, INT, MFG)...

It's not like they started with the ball on the SU 20 or anything...

SU had one methodical drive and one big play and it's 14-0...

Their last drive you could tell SJF backed off, they didn't have nearly the amount of men at the LOS as they did in previous drives.  I would have done the same, there's no way they could score on you with that little time left if they have to run the ball all day...

The worst thing about is that Francis & Schmidt are basically useless in this offense.  It's a shame that they're senior year they don't have a QB to get them the ball, I know it's not Kramer's fault he's playing out of position, but it's a tough way to have two of the top 5 WR's in SJF  history to go out like this...

This is rediculous for Fisher. You are playing the worst team in the conference on the last week of the season when you still have a chance at an at large bid. Granted, it is a very slim chance, but it is a chance. A squeak by win doesn't help, and a loss puts it way out of reach. Fisher comes out and lays an egg like this?

This is the second year in a row this has gone on.

Serious question...is the offense that Fisher is currently running one that they want to stick with for a while, or until Kramer leaves?  Is there a QB that can run a "normal" offense coming up through the ranks that wasn't ready this year...and if so, will Kramer move to RB full time?

They had a SO QB that was going to be the starter, from what I've heard a Tim Bailey clone, but broke his throwing hand so I'm assuming you'll see him take over next year w/ Kramer & Miller at RB...

Good season.

And to Secky starting his unexpected downward spiral.

By the way Hobart is really battling with Wesley down 1 score heading into the 4th.  I think the east has done a very good job of representing so far today.

Great win for Fisher today. Hopkins was a good team, and Fisher lived up to their at large bid today at least. I have to say that I am really impressed with Ahmed Hassanien. Didn't play much all year, and came off the bench and really played well. No turnovers and threw the ball well. Cody Miller was a beast today as well.

A really good win for Fisher. I hope Kramer is good to go for next week.

It looked as though he was grabbing his right groin when he went down (Kramer) if it's bad enough to keep him out in the 2nd half you have to wonder if he'll be good enough to go next week...

Fisher up 10 at the end of the 3rd and driving. Points on this drive would go a long way to a win today.

Post by: boobyhasgameyo on November 26, 2011, 02:03:02 PM
The defense has been nasty in the 2nd half.  Picking off the QB, sacking him a couple of times, the 4th down stop...I like it.  I hope I don't jinx them either.

Another big stop for the Fisher D. A chance for the offense to milk the clock a little, and if they can get points, a chance to deliver a real tough blow to DVC.

Fisher goes for it on 4th down with 6:02 left, and does not get it. I think that was a mistake by the Fisher coaching staff. Make DVC go the distance if you can.

Anyone else noticing that Fisher keeps running into these QB's that are crazy efficient and only throwing around 5 interceptions the entire season...then they are forced into multiple interceptions against us.  That is a trend I certainly hope will continue.  I feel like any time a QB throws the ball we have just as good a chance at snatching it as their WR...it's a good feeling.

Oh No. Miller is down and the trainers are out to see him. Hopefully he is OK. You hate to see him get hurt any time, but late in a game like this is even worse. Fisher needs to have everyone for next week (if they can make it out of this game of course).

awesome stuff....re-reading the posts from earlier and it was like you guys were at game with me....man it was nerve racking after we got stopped on 4th and 1....I was at that 2004 game and trust me, fans around me today were kinda lax with the lead late and I was 'like'....slow down....I saw this movie in 2004 and it didnt end well


....honest, I didnt take that W for granted until we got the int in the end zone.....even a score there and they on-siding it with 35 secs left....and that QB had an absolute cannon....he threw a couple 60 yd (incomplete) bombs in 1st half


We dnt seem to have the defensive studs we had in 2006, but wow....they are frickin impressive as a unit.....they just absolutely dialed it up in second half and that 'poor' Fr. QB was welcomed to real play-off football

At least the game isn't in Northern Minnesota where I grew up. The winter's here in St Paul feel considerably warmer than back home. But, as someone posted earlier I believe it will be around 30 game time and maybe some snow. Interesting to see how SJF fares in cooler weather than what is forecasted for Rochester this week.

Wow St. Thomas QB has an arm...he just gunned that incomplete pass like 60 yards.  If our QB could have done that it would have been a TD to Francis on our last possession.  Francis is faster than anybody out there on the Tommie D.

I agree, UST has a good/very good offense, and a very solid D, but you give them the short field and make mistakes, they certainly can do this to you
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: sfury on December 03, 2011, 02:02:11 PM
The good news for Fisher is that they're doing better than the previous St. John's team to play the Tommies this year, which gave up 63. The bad news: Tommies on pace for 56. If they can get something before the end of the half they'd still have a decent shot, but obviously have to get the offense going.

Otherwise, guess I'll have to start pulling for WW to stop the Toms.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: sjfcards on December 03, 2011, 02:02:46 PM
Fisher needs to just get a score and hold until halftime, and they can make adjustments. They can't make any more mistakes, or this will get out of hand.

FA you are just going to make all of the MIAC posters even happier when you write stuff like that.  This is a combination of us making careless mistakes and St. Thomas being a really talented football team.  In my honest assessment they do deserve to be ranked in the top 5 but there is still a gap between what they are doing and what UWW and UMU are all about.  They will find that out next week.  Yes this is me conceding.  I have a lot to do today, I don't have to watch the second half.  Congrats St. Thomas even though your posters will not be gracious about this. 

Go Wesley?

Congrats to SU for your good season. The Warhawks were able to solve the option pretty well from the beginning of the game. Your guys came out inspired in the second half, but it's hard to play from behind trying to run the ball & not having a dynamic passing game to open things up. Your a young team, a solid program, and hopfully they will continue to develop and you continue to have success next year. Until we meet again...Go Gulls & Go Warhawks!!

tough day for the E8 today. Fisher ran into a buzz saw and just didn't have an answer. I am not coming away from this week a huge UST fan, but best of luck in the next round. Lets get some new blood in the finals.

Don't be such a little baby.  You play to the whistle, play to the end of the game.  To do anything other than that, would be an insult to the opponent.

I really try to stay away from this stuff, but this about sums up the week.
I agree that you can run your offnese until the whistle, but seriously a fake field goal when you are up 25, and a pass play with less than a minute left?

It is not an insult to take your foot off the gas when the game is in hand.

Listen, UST was a better team than Fisher. Fisher didn't play well today, and UST just beat them. I do take issue with running the types of plays that UST ran right up to the end. You were the better team. Act like you have been there before, and do the right thing.

Buff State:

Cortland was starting to put a drive together to muster a comeback but Buff St picked off their 4th pass of the day off Cortland QB Rose. with 5:40 left..

Next play Buff St airs it out again for 44yds, QB at 574yds and WR up to 242yds...

I can not believe Cortland's D is this bad...

Ithaca scores at the end of the 3rd to go up 21-0.

Sounds like they are simply bigger than Moravian as they are pounding the ball up and down the field in the 2nd half.

I only listened to the second half but they didn't have much.  They had 2 big plays on their last drive and threw an INT in the last minute.  Sounded like they had their 2nd and 3rd QB in there switching off after the 1st QB got hurt?  Looks like Moravian ended with 8 first downs and about 125 yards on offense.  Ithaca rushed for over 300 yards but I'm guessing Moravian isn't going to be that great of a team this year (They weren't last year anyway).

Fisher is dominating the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball but the 3 turnovers have killed them...

They have 219 yards of offense in the first half but only 7 points to show...

TMC gets the ball to start the 2nd, hopefully the defense can continue to keep them under wraps...

Some thoughts on the 1st half of the Brockport-Buff State game.

I'm happy that Brockport is leading, but they could be leading by more. Poor kickoff coverage essentially gave Buff State so many yards (and essentially the first 3 points). Big 15 yard penalties also hurt. Buffalo state looks like they could theoretically "explode" offensively at any moment. Should be an interesting second half. This is a game that seems like the score should be higher than it is from the feel of watching it, if that makes any sense.

Kramer- 3 of 10 passing for 9 yards.

Lets let that sink in.

.9 yards per attempt.

It was the same hot and cold crap as last year, love him as an athlete and a RB/WR but he can't consistently move the ball through the air.

Not impressed with AU's offense.  Their offensive line is allowing a lot of pressure.  Sopak, a W & J transfer is at QB but doesn't seem too comfortable.  Looks athletic but hard to tell arm strength with the amount of pressure from RPI.

I haven't liked this offense at any point since the start of last year. They have games where they move the ball, but whenever they play a good defense they struggle to move the ball. They can't sit back and rely on their defense forever. Eventually (like down 10 in a game you have been dominated in on the road) will need to make something happen, and move the ball. With this offense they just can't do that.

Someone said it earlier, I love Kramer as a player. Think he is one of the best athletes in the E8, but the offense would be much more dynamic with a true arm in the backfield.

That was a win that Fisher did not deserve, but I will take it. What a big time second half on both sides of the ball. The pick 6 is still the play of the game for me, but that long TD pass is a close second.

Great win. Go Cards!

Hey it's only two weeks in and you're one win away from matching last year's total!  I'd say that's a great start to the year.  I think Port could be a sleeper in the NJAC, still have a tough schedule but no one has really stood out except Port.

I don't really think he was ever too over the top, just trying to get some respect for his team. After one week it certainly looked hopeful, and I would certainly like to hear his thoughts on this weeks game. Brockport got a lot of penalties and was constantly giving them good field position. I think the Bengals defense will end up their downfall in E8 games, especially in those with teams with good QBs (actually, are there any of those in the E8?? I'm not actually joking!)

As all can see BENGALSRULE has not (nor will I) lose my voice. There's no quiet here! Congrats to all who won today, especially Brockport. As I said in my previous post, my BENGALS have work to do, especially with a road trip to Defending 3 champ next weekend!!

I'm as proud of my BENGALS today to day as I was last week. Just dissappointed in the results. I know that these kids gave it there best. They just cant compete when you have 12 penalties (for 114 yards) to go along with 2 ints (1 a pick 6).

Hopefully they will get back into the E8 conversation as the season goes on!

The sun will rise tommorrow!

I think Port is going to be good this year so I don't think it's a huge knock on Buff St losing today. 

I think Buff St is going to win 5-6 games but they have to shore up that D that's allowing 34pts a game before they make any noise.

After next week you're probably going to see that average go up 7-10 points so they need to get that D under control.  Can't just hope to outscore everyone with the offense.

Post by: Bombers798891 on September 15, 2012, 03:01:17 PM
Bombers' offense is, as usual, an embarrassment in short yardage/goal to go situations. Inexcusable that they can't pick up a 2nd-and-1, or get into the end zone on seven plays from inside the 10-yard line. And it is an Ithaca problem, and not a Union strength, because it's been this way at Ithaca for three years running. They would literally be better served taking intentional delay of game penalties than trying to pick up short yards in the red zone.

They have run the same play literally 4 seperate times (3 times on 4th down, and 1 time on 3rd down before punting) where there were in a short yardage situation, had the FB offset, motioned the H-Back towards the side where they were running and got stuffed.  When they came out of the timeout on the 4th and goal at the one I was literally saying outloud "there is no way there are lining up to go power again"...it's crazy how predicatable they have become.

Annnnd the offense throws a pick in their own territory.  Whitewater takes over on Buff State's 30.  Can't do that.

Well Whitewater is forced into a 45 yard field goal and misses.  Still 3-0.

Buff State keeps getting penalties on offense but the drive continues.  It was 3rd and 10 and QB got flushed out and ran...got lit up short of the 1st down but penalty was called for a late hit.  Drive is alive and in UWW territory.

Un--freaking--real

Union absolutely throws the game away,

In the 4th, at 21-14 they botch a punt that gives the Bombers first-and-goal.

In the overtime, Union's got a 2nd and goal at the IC one foot line, and they fumble a snap. On third down, they take a sack back at the 20, leading to a FG. On Ithaca's possession, a pass interference call on 3rd down leads to a first down, and then Ingaro just gets a foot down on the game-winning TD pass. (Could  have been called out.)

Credit to the Bombers for capitalizing on the turnovers, and what a catch by Ingaro for the win, but man, Union just keeps killing themselves when they play Ithaca.

There D Line was amazing. I don't think they respected UWW pass game enough, they had 7 and 8 in the box the whole game and made solid tackles. Also, UWW didn't capitalized on some passes. However, the front seven held there own all game and the back 4 contained the receivers as well. I feel Buff State offense was good all game, they could have another 6 or 7 points on the board.

It was similar to the Boise play, but they had another receiver along the side of the 1st receiver who received the first pitch, he then option it off to the 2nd receiver. I believe it was 4th and forever as well.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: pg04 on September 15, 2012, 05:01:13 PM
It was 4th and 19.  There was about a 5 yard pass and then a lateral, then with about 4 yards left to the first down, another lateral which allowed Buffalo State to go about 20 more yards and the first down. This may not be the best explanation or completely accurate on the yardage.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Upstate on September 15, 2012, 05:02:20 PM
It was a Boise St vs Oklahoma type of a play.

Simple 8-10 yard hook, then Buff St had two guys coming in for the lateral.  The WR pitched it to the other WR.  That WR started running with it and at the last second pitched it. I swear it looked like a speed option only 10 yards down field.  I really thought the guy was going to score.

Pep will be there and with the mere 2-hour drive, the band's shortest road trip of 2012, hopefully will have a good-sized band on hand. Alfred travels pretty well, and, with only THREE games on Merrill Field this season, the Buffalo State game will serve as one of the Saxons' home games this year.

On Saxon Warriors!

Fisher's punting continuing to put them in bad situations...

Fisher punts a ball 13 yards to midfield, forces UR to punt but gets pinned back inside their own 15.  Fisher of course get's 4th and less than a yard and then runs their starting LBer out there to punt.  It barely gets across midfield and UR marches down the field to take a 14-7 lead...

I can't believe with over 150 kids in the program they can't find a punter that can punt the ball with their starting punter out...

Fisher needs to grow a set and start going for it on 4th down.  Are they really gaining that much with 20 yard flip in field position?  Nope...

Don't get me started with Fisher's sideline to sideline run game with the bigger O-line.  Man up and run it down their throats...

Fans who have paid the price of admission should not be held hostage by "TV viewers" who couldn't muster $5 or the time or interest to attend the game in person. That guy in orange should NOT be permitted on the field. He breaks the flow of the game.

Another game, another first 3 quarters of bad offensive football by Fisher...

Fisher has the talent in the backfield and on the outside to put up points, only one thing holding them back...

Kramer hits an unkown WR (guy I've never heard of) for a 40yd pass to put them on the 15, two plays later Kramer runs it in to tie it up....

It was so fricking easy for him, his inconsistency is driving me crazy. He is too good to look that bad for 3 quarters...

Fisher waiting until the 4th quarter will not work forever...lol... whatever it is that is wrong with them, they better straighten it out soon!

Also, although not a monkeystomp as predicted, Hobart leads Utica 45-26 with about a minute left (almostmonkeystomp). A good effort by Utica though.

New QB time for Fisher

Enough of this offense as presently constituted with Kramer running the show.  He shows flashes but has been unreliable and a liability for most of the season.  I will say the one bit of hope I have is it took him a long time to get things going last year but he seemed to hit a groove during the second half of the season. 

I really want to see a more traditional offense again.  It is currently painful to watch.

They have two options...

Either bring Fenti in and move Kramer to the slot and find ways to get him the ball on swings, bubble screens, end arounds and other funs stuff like that.

OR

Stick with Kramer, bring in two TEs and just run the damn option all game then play action off of it...

I think he's a great player with the ball in his hands but he leaves a lot to be desired when he's asked to throw it...

Agreed! Love Kramer, especiallY with the ball in his hands. But throwing it is just not a legit t right now. And so, Fisher is just not a offensive power and will win squeakers for now...

Liability? Unreliable?  The kid hasn't turned the ball over the last two games... made the big plays when he had to
Is he playing real well, no but I can't complain of his clutch plays and winning games. Fisher is 3-0.. Kramer is 3-0. And as I said when fisher really needs a score he finds a way.  Also put some blame on the receivers. I counted at least 5 balls that should a been caught, and their route running is awful (being a former wr) I'm patient with Kramer because he bloomed midway through the season and he has thrown and played the qb position 100 times better at this point this year than last. Have faith in the kid, he's a winner. Fisher winning is all I care about

Can't keep playing bad for 3.5 quarters each week and expect continued success...

Their lack of a passing game is killing the offense...

I'm just saying I don't think Kramer is throwing as bad as one may think . Receivers are average at best, Fisher's strength is their run game and I still think there is no better person to put at qb than Kramer. He has noticeably improved throwing the ball, just wish he had Schmidt and Francis this year.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: boobyhasgameyo on September 16, 2012, 05:55:09 PM
I'm not purposefully trying to dog him.  I disagree that he has improved throwing the ball.  I have watched every minute of every game so far this year and he has over or under thrown his receivers way more than a product of the receivers running bad routes or dropping the ball in my estimation.  There are even times when they have connected on big pass plays where it would have been even bigger if Kramer could have hit the receiver in stride but he doesn't.  They have to wait or turn around to catch where he is throwing it.  I have seen him make a few excellent throws but they are the exception. 

I have been saying all along he improved last year as the season progressed.  I hope for the same this year.  I will gladly accept being wrong.

Post by: sjfcards on September 16, 2012, 06:48:11 PM
I wish they would run a lot more option if he is going to be the QB. Last year they decided to use his legs instead of trying to keep the run/pass balance. That is when they started to turn the corner last year. I would like to see a more traditional QB if this is the offense they are going to run.

I'm fine with Kramer at QB, but let's just let him run the ball. In the first game Kramer had 35 carries and the team put up over 400 yards of offense. In the 2 games since he has had 7 carries (team put up 258 yards (that includes a 92 yard TD catch)), and 14 carries (team put up 338 yards).

If we are putting all our eggs in the Kramer basket then let's go all in and have him run the ball 20+ times a game. If not then let's put Fenti in and use Kramer as a back and in the wild cat.

Honestly, dlip agrees with sjfcards. As a coach you must get the best from your players and match your offense to your players' best abilities. Kramer is a beast with the ball in his hands, so ****ing athletic. why force him to be uncomfortable more than you have to. Use the pass sparingly, run the **** out of the football, and let your athletes make more plays. Honestly, just knowing he is somewhat capable of the long pass will hold defenses back a bit. Run Kramer on the option like ****ing Ali Sheeba and work from there. Just some thoughts. :)

Anyone know anything about fenti. From what I hear from my son and other players no one really respects him and thinks Kramer is the best qb on the team. My sons words "one throw fenti looks unreal the next five he looks awful. He has a huge arm but can't read coverages and not a good leader ." If  that's the truth in the locker room and coaching staff I understand Kramer there. Kramer would be better at rb but fisher would be worse I feel. Team chemistry has lways had a huge role in how vosburgh coaches.

I have heard similar issues re: Fenti. What I saw during the scrimmage was that Fenti was able to make all of the throws. He has a much better arm than Kramer, but is much more of a pocket passer. He continually threw the ball over the top of the Alfred State D, and was accurate from what I saw.

The coaches see these guys every day, so they must know something about the Fenti option that we don't. My thought is more along the lines of use Kramer, but let's adjust the approach to make sure we use him to the max!

I agree completely ... can't make any debates off of Alfred state second string defense... they are an AVERAGE high school team. Gotta be more issues than an arm deciding the position .

Buff St missed a 22yd FG in closing seconds of the half.

AU's only points came on a blocked FG return for a TD.  They did move the ball on one drive and were stopped on a 4th and goal at the 1.

Not sure if it's the weather that's the reason for all of the incompletions but Buff St QB is 9/23-160yds 1td/1int and AU's QB is 6/15-52 yds.

Wow! Just got to check in on the scores and almost fell off my chair when I saw the AU/Buff State score. Anyone following the game know if it is AU playing that well, or Buff state not looking quite itself?

I just got home from the "Whupping" that Alfred put on my beloved BENGALS. Cant speak about the first half but when I arrived Buff State was up 10-6. 1 min later Alfred scored...and just kept scoring! The game was never close in the 2nd half.

There was a fear that my BENGALS would still be relishing last weeks victory. I can't say that that was the case. I can say that they were thoroughly outplayed in every facet of the game.Congrats to AUpepband ( met him as I was leaving) and the hundreds of Alfred fans who traveled to Buff State for the game!

Im still proud of my BENGALS. I just hope that the counseling office on campus is open today because there cant be a team in America that is more confused about thier identity than the BENGALS

We played a team that wanted it more in the 2nd half. They out blocked, out tackled and out hit my BENGALS . Alfred averaged 9.1 yards per rush, 11.7 yards per completion and 8.0 yards per play. They answered a Buff State T.D., with 12.32 left in the 4th quarter, with an 80 yard t.d. run on their first play from scrimmage at the 12.12 mark (20 seconds of hope...dashed)!

No excuses! Just dominated! Period!!!!

Looks like they might be going to an option this week...

O-line is dominant today, really getting great push and giving Kramer a ton of time to go through his reads.  Defense is making some solid tackles in space and really holding Wick in check.

16-0 Fisher, 11 left in half.

Yeah if not for some key tackles the score would be different.  Fisher would send two-three guys off an edge and Wick would have a draw or delay to the opposite side but wouldn't get anywhere because one of those guys made the tackle from behind.

Pep checking in en route home from Coyer Field during a stop at Timmy Ho's. Pep might have headed east to Rochester to watch the 'wick and the Fish but Pep's flourishing social life calls for attendance at a Poor Taste Birthday Party in Alfred Station. Pep's got his priorities.

As for today's game, Tyler DeRosa suffered an injury on the first half drive that ended on the Buff State 1-yard-line. Pep heard something about possibly broken leg. Pep did see DeRosa on crutches and hopes for the best for Tyler.

With DeRosa out and AU running the Wildcat, Dwyer handed off to the "Ever Ready" DeRosa backup, soph Chuck Beckwith, who showed great promise in his freshman year but suffered a season-ending injury in a scrimmage at Susquehanna that Pep attended with the late Carl T. "Holy" Moses (and heavy on the "holy") back in 2010. Beckwith was red-shirted and the beast has been working himself back into form, which was evident today when the door of opportunity opened for him.

Defense today--both line play and secondary--was stellar today. Pep was well pleased.

Nothing pleased Pep any more today than the opportunity at halftime to chat with Julio Fuentes, who is currently taking classes at Jamestown CC-Olean in addition to continuing his rehab. The kid has an unbreakable spirit. Pep is excited to see what opens for him as he looks to a slight change in direction to focus on "sports psychology" to assist players like himself who suffer dibilitating injuries. It was just awesome to see him. More on Julio later.

And finally, it was great to meet bengalsrule, a class act, at the end of the game. Good luck to the Bengals the rest of the way.

On Saxon Warriors!

Not to worry Bengals.  AU has been through similar situations over the years plenty enough.  Hopefully, a rebound will come your way and the Bengals will still surprise some E8 teams down the road this year.  Best of luck and don't ever give up.

Bombers picked up a nice win today. Good to see the team move to 3-0. Still lots of question marks surrounding the team however.

Offensively, 40 points is nothing to sneeze at. But...

Ithaca completed 17 passes. 11 to Joe Ingaro, two to the tight end, and three to running backs. Ingaro may be one of the best receivers in the conference, but the lack of a second WR is going to hurt the team. Clay Ardoin had another solid game, but 71 of his 118 yards came on two carries. And, at the end of the day, it's Frostburg...

I like what the defense has done under Mark McDonagh. Thirteen sacks in three games? Yes please. I still think the offense is too one-dimensional for this team to do better than 5-5, however

First full solid half of football Fisher has played all year...

Kramer has time and has stayed in the pocket to complete 14/20...

Miller has 62yds on 8 carries and two TDs...

Kirchner has 52yds rushing and a TD in addition to 8 catches for 57 yds...

The D has been lights out only allowing 120yds of offense (14 rushing), 3 INTs (2 by Sant) and blocked another FG at the end of the half...

Score of note:

#4 UW-Whitewater 0 @ #13 UW-Platteville 14 (Late 1st Qtr)

[EDIT: It's really weird right now how UW-W is having trouble on offense.  After a sack on 2nd & 5 made it 3rd & about 16, UW-W throws a short slip screen that gains 7 yards with no major protection to allow a breakaway.  Something is just not right compared to the past years I've watched this team.  Remember, a loss today, and their playoff hopes are almost gone -- they'd have to likely rely on two Platteville losses in Conference play.]

Post by: Bombers798891 on September 29, 2012, 03:43:37 PM
Alright, I'm on board. The Bombers are 4-0, and this was an impressive win over a solid team. The Bombers were in control the entire game. Thoughts:

The Bombers have their quarterback. Phil Neumann has improved so much in one year, it's almost scary. His decision-making is better, his throws have more zip. His first touchdown pass to Prugar and his throw late in the game to Joe Ingrao were the kind of throws you didn't see from him enough last year, hard, decisive, and accurate. Can't say enough about how good he looked. He's playing as good as Zappia and Grastorf, in my mind.

His line: 25-of-32, 310 yards, 2 TD's, 0 picks. He's got nine touchdowns and 1 interception this season.

Joe Ingrao...what is there left to say? He's simply outstanding. You know he's going to get the ball, but he's open anyway. Fantastic hands, as he brought in really the game-clinching throw with one hand. 10 catches, 174 yards and a score.

On the season, Ingaro has 35 catches, 488 yards and 4 touchdowns and may be the best WR in the E8.

The Wildcat formation with Oliver: Yes please. The Bombers finally abandon trying to run it straight ahead with their running backs, and got creative. Fantastic.

Clay Ardoin looks like a different back as well. Much quicker, and incredibly physical. Broke a lot of tackles too. He's got 540 yards in four games.

All in all, I'm a believer. While still a long way from E8 heavyweight, the Bombers are much improved. 7-3 is in the realm of possibility.

Pep pleased his Saxons (and the band) came to play today. The AU defense amazed Pep, shutting down the run, getting 8 sacks and solid pass coverage. Complete team effort. Bent a little but didn't break. On the other side of the ball, Pep was concerned when Dwyer went out early to injury....glad to see him run on the field at start of second half (although not playing). Sopak settled in after a shaky first series and was effective both with the run and pass. And Beckwith? The guy's a beast.

Best of luck to the Bombers the rest of the way!

Pep, Im starting to draw some similarities to the 05 team. Bad first game, but solid defense carrying the team. Transfer qb starting to find his feet, solid run game with multiple rb threats. Definitely very similar to 05. We will see how it all plays out.

14-0 Fisher at the half. A botched punt return gave the ball back to the Bobcats, or Fisher would have had another chance starting around mid-field. Other than that it was a good half of football for Fisher.

They may be the better football team at the half but I doubt they are overall. The option attack sometimes has issues on the road on grass in poor weather. I have to think that Salisbury will put it together in the 2nd and squeak out the victory.

Agreed. Both teams lost both games to good teams, but two losses just isn't good enough this year. Everyone in conference has at least two losses. Fisher is at best, IMHO, going to finish third in line for the bid behind AU and SU. AU only has two losses, but if they win out they will finish second for the AQ behind a team that has two losses as well. I thought it was a fluke last year that 1 team from the East got in with 2 losses, I can't see two teams with 2 losses from the same conference getting in...

AU does control their own destiny, but all of their work is still in front of them. I wouldn't read too much into any resume that does not have the 3 toughest games they will play all year included.

TOUCHDOWN IC!!!!!

Big pass play for a long TD with 31 seconds left.

I'm running board for our game and i'm like, freaking out.

Btw,

36 yard TD Strike from Benkwitt to Meier has UC up on Alfred, 7-0.

Dwyer, Beckwith, and Sopak all still out for Alfred.

And chaos once again ensues in the Empire 8....

Triple option teams do not win at Ithaca. Period. That's six straight heading back to 2002. Combined record of those teams (outside of their loss to Ithaca):

45-10

The weather cooperated today, as the field was muddy--the worst kind of conditions to run the triple option in. But the Bombers did a great job. Just a fantastic win.

I will say this: I know Salisbury's got a great corner. But with 42 seconds left, you HAVE to know Joe Ingaro is going to be targeted. Leaving him one on one with no safety help over the top is a terrible defensive play call. Ingrao is the Bombers' one play-maker. You have to double him in that situation.

Utica with their most impressive performance by far. Suddenly, the Pioneers look like they could shock the conference. I mean, why couldn't they win some 35-34 kind of game over the Gulls? This isn't 2011. Salisbury's not winning every conference game by three or four touchdowns. Aside from Ithaca, Alfred and Fisher both had good chances to beat them. The conference is there for the taking if the Pioneers come to play

That was a freshman SS. Bad technique, not understanding the game a who the go to guy was. Also, with those field condintions, any decent teams has a chance against the option. Nevertheless, good game by Ithaca.

Alfred isint helping themselves either. They just got flagged for roughing the passer at the UC 18. they would have had quality field position, but they blew it and now UC is driving across midfield.

As far as UC-Salisbury is concerned, i know how UC's defense played last year in that game, but remember, at the start of the third quarter, UC led 42-35 over the gulls.

With the defensive improvement, along with the emergence of the run game for UC, we could be looking at a very, very tight ballgame.

No. We lost Beckwith and Dwyer and Sopak in the 1st quarter.  Sopak came in for one more play.  WR Phillips apparently was also knocked out.  Don't know when.  These are reports from fans at the game.

I just quickly scanned the game play by play.  Beckwith carried the ball 4 times, all in the 1st quarter.  His injury is listed  a couple of plays before the play on which both Sopak and Dwyer were injured.  I did not see his name mentioned again.  Apparently the #36 who filled in is named Zach Brinkley but was reoeatedly called Maroney(?) by the game anouncers.  I thought Beckwith was back in the game a couple of times until I realized that the anouncers were referring to the UC quarterback.

Pep was there. They all went down on the Saxons' initial drive. Phillips caught a pass for a 12-yard gain on the Saxons' first play from scrimmage, then later caught a second pass for a first down at the Utica 43 and apparently suffered a concussion on the play. Beckwith caught a pass for a 6-yard-gain to the Utica 38-yard-line and took a hard hit when tackled, apparently suffering a serious knee injury. (When Beckwith got hit, Utica fans cheered as it was a hard hit but Pep is trying to deny that he heard a second cheer when it was apparent Beckwith was hurt). Sopak then was victim of a late hit (that was flagged for roughing the passer) but did not appear to be hurt. Then on a 3rd-and-12 at the Utica 19-yard line, Sopak dropped off a screen pass to Dwyer, who gained 9 yards to the 10-yard line. Watching the ball, Pep didn't see Sopak go down, but after the play, he was on the ground in agony, while downfield, Dwyer was also not getting up. At halftime, it took some doing to get the ambulance out of the mud, but both Dwyer and Sopak were taken to a hospital, likely for x-rays.

Utica had something to prove today. The Pioneers came to play. The Saxons left everything on the field last week in Salisbury, MD and were outplayed today. Utica is a vastly improved team. While Pep saw a lot of holding out there (seemingly flagged only when AU made the stop), the Utica offensive line nevertheless gave Benkwitt all day to throw. He's an outstanding QB and had a great game, along with his corps of receivers. It had to be frustrating for AU's D-line; just as one of them would get to Benkwitt, he always had someone open to dump it off to.

Hats off to frosh Malcolm Downey who gained 34 yards on 9 carries, and to backup QB Joe Enslin, who was 11-for-18 for 128 yards and a TD pass to Jonathan Ruffin. Sopak looked sharp, completing his first 7 passes. His eighth pass, which came when he re-entered the game after the injury, was picked off.

Maleke Fuentes had sticky fingers for the day with 6 catches for 80 yards, including one that he snatched out of the hands of a defender while in the air, and coming down just in bounds. AU punter Matt Girolmo had a good day, averaging 38 yards on 6 punts. Saxons (4-3, 3-2 E8) will need a good week of practice to rebuild the offense in order to get back in the win column against a hungry Frostburg State team Saturday at....oh gosh....a home game?....at Merrill Field!!

Get the fight song ready!

The whole team is frustrating to me. This game seems like Fisher has been in control all game, and you look up at the half and Fisher is only up 2, and Buff State gets the ball to start the 2nd half.

Fisher misses an extra point, fumbles twice, and has a first and goal from inside the 10 where they have to settle for a 35+ yard field goal. Thank God Fisher got 2 picks of their own.

The defense is fine to me.  They are a very solid unit.  The offense as you mentioned turns it over with careless mistakes and is so inept.  The coaches clearly are content with this pathetic style of play however (obviously not the turnover aspect but a bumbling vanilla offense).  Don't care if we manage to win the next two games and by some miracle got to go to the playoffs...I will say my nightly prayers that the coaching staff grow a pair of balls next season and break free of this.  Two years is enough of a sample size.  I'd rather go down in flames in spectacular fashion with a QB airing it out but also learning and getting better than this absurd slow death that lingers throughout the season.

I'm not frustrated or anything though  8-)

I know this is a divisive issue but as an outsider I really think they need to go in another direction. It may not be possible this year because the others have seemed almost as incapable. Hopefully next year they will have a better option.

First do I think Kramer should be qb next year... no if they have a viable guy who can at least manage an offense.  Looking at today's game you can't blame Kramer just because he is the qb. This Fisher offense just doesn't have the players. The line is atrocious... Kramer was pressured all day and until the run game wasn't doing well either.  The biggest thing to look at is that the wide receivers for fisher are terrible . 4 and 5 Chairmonte drops a ball in his gut.. Francis kid drops a pass right in his hands in the end zone with two.minutes left . Kramer is not as bad as you make him out to be . He just doesn't have Ryan Francis and Schmidt this year that can make plays. Only he Miller and the tight end can make any plays. I disagree if you tell me Kramer shouldn't be the qb because he's bad. I will agree if you say he shouldn't be qb because fisher needs a playmaker on the outside and no one can cut It so he has to go out of there . As I said kramer shouldn't be there but its not like he is the reason for this offenses continuous poor performance. He showed he could hit guys hands today . He can't throw catch and run the ball. Put some blame on some other people because it isn't just him
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: pg04 on November 03, 2012, 03:08:11 PM
I'm sorry, but we just aren't watching the same guy. I know I haven't seen every game but the ones I have, even the coaches seem to be aware he can't pass. Most of his completions are screens. I just don't see it at all.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: pg04 on November 03, 2012, 03:14:45 PM
Also, I feel bad signaling him out because this really shouldn't be for bashing one guy, but I just think they will be better off in a different direction based on what I have watched.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: fisheralum91 on November 03, 2012, 03:17:49 PM
I have and will continue to back Ryan.
Could he be better utilized as an H back- sure!
Is there a better QB on the Fisher team?
The answer is absolutely not.
If someone transfers in with a cannon arm next year, then Ryan could be utilized much better.
If not- he is still the man.
The coaches showed zero confidence in Ahmed or Tyler.

I did say that he shouldn't be there if there is a viable backup. We don't see the practices or everyday thing but I am guessing there is something that vos doesn't like in any of the other guys. From what my son says Kramer cares less where he plays he is just the kind of guy who goes out there to win. I'm sure he has no say because wasn't he an all conference running back His first year and at Colgate. I figure he'd be comfortable there . But let me say if your coach told you that the team needs you at qb  I'm pretty sure you'd do it
I just struggle to blame the kid because its evident he competes and leave it all on the field. And I really do think he is better than you guys say but the qb will always be the one to blame if an offense is struggling

The entire offense is a cluster**** and it all starts with the QB. He can only throw bubble screens. He can't throw an accurate pass down field and BSC knew it so they stacked the box and dared Kramer to beat them.  He couldn't.

The offense was a god awful 3 of 14 on 3rd downs, Kramer was 3/11 passing on 3rd downs alone.

The whole "he tries hard" angle is just a bunch of high school crap. You don't get points for effort, you get points for results and Kramer's offense is the worst offense since 2001.

If Kramer's older brother wasn't the OC he would have been pulled by now.

Look, This isn't always going to be a rah rah feel-good and give trophies to everyone board. Its like Tebow Syndrome in the NFL. He can't throw the ball worth a lick but since he has "heart" Oh my gosh we need to get him in the game so he can throw 5-21 for 34 yards.

OK. I respect yours and Fanatic's opinions on this since you pay close attention, I just have my doubts and think some may be getting a tad bit defensive of the guy. However, I don't know enough about the staff to cast doubt on their doing something just because so and so. It's obvious that they have confidence enough to let him start the games, although sometimes it seems they don't have the confidence to actually have him throw it.

Kid threw 27 times... how many times you expect him to throw. Yes a fourth of them of them were bubbles but their offense is based off the run . It even was when bailey played qb. They started two kids that weigh no.more than 250 pounds at tackle one being a freshman. Again the coaches must not have confidence in any other qb but you can't blame the kid for that. He does what he is supposed to play hard and do the best he can (not high school stuff just reality) Fisher isn't as good as people think they are. Lots of holes mostly on the offense but when the whole receiving core is hurt and your best playmaker is banged up all year you're going to have some trouble. They don't have a field goal kicker so three points for any other team is a fourth down play for Fisher .

Pathetic.

He can not throw downfield. At all.

There is a difference between running some bubble screens like Bailey would and then relying on them entirely like Kramer does.

He's throw for 1100 yards so far this year. IN EIGHT GAMES!!!!!!

If he plays QB on any other team he is getting pulled.

All the bubbles are off run reads... if he were to throw down field who does he throw it to? There is NO ONE  to throw it to. The receivers this year have more drops then catches. Only reliable threat is 18 Shuey. He even fumbled today. As I said cant  throw to receivers who can't catch. Talk about bad... they are bad. But I won't criticize them because with an exception of Stell ( who is a number 3 receiver at best who is number 1 because of injuries ) who thought they'd see this much time. Its sad when your average qb is the best qb, rb, and wr on the team. Him and miller I think would be a deadly combination and let Kramer spread the field but as we see vos must not have anyone in the bank to make that happen. Therefore they try to run run run because the receivers block better than catch ... barely

Post by: dlippiel on November 03, 2012, 07:24:11 PM
Here is what dlip thinks it is fellas. A coach has to create an environment (O and D)) that best fits the type of players he has. He must find a way to get the very best out of each player, identify their strengths and use those strengths to best help the team win. Dlip has a TON of respect for Coach Vos, a ton. If we see Kramer's weakness don't you think Coach Vos does? Obviously, hence the offensive they run, a running O out of the gun. He knows Kramer is the best athlete on that team, he is no doubt in dlip's mind. Kid is ****in nasty, trust dlip he has been around d3 FB for awhile. The key in all this is that Coach Vos knows that even with Kramers struggles at the position he is clearly, in his eyes, the best option for it on the tean.. He knows this believe dlip. What the **** is he supposed to do? Homestly to dlip this offense is more of a knock on the back UPS than Kramer. Dlip bets Kramer would rather be catching passes and running the FB instead of being behind center. Vos is doing the best he can with what he's got. **** if you guys would rather just see someone go out and throw INT's just for the sake of going long the kicker could do that.

he is a gamer.

unlike tebow- he has the ability to lead his team, and proved that last year.

OK. I respect yours and Fanatic's opinions on this since you pay close attention, I just have my doubts and think some may be getting a tad bit defensive of the guy. However, I don't know enough about the staff to cast doubt on their doing something just because so and so. It's obvious that they have confidence enough to let him start the games, although sometimes it seems they don't have the confidence to actually have him throw it.

Kid threw 27 times... how many times you expect him to throw. Yes a fourth of them of them were bubbles but their offense is based off the run . It even was when bailey played qb. They started two kids that weigh no.more than 250 pounds at tackle one being a freshman. Again the coaches must not have confidence in any other qb but you can't blame the kid for that. He does what he is supposed to play hard and do the best he can (not high school stuff just reality) Fisher isn't as good as people think they are. Lots of holes mostly on the offense but when the whole receiving core is hurt and your best playmaker is banged up all year you're going to have some trouble. They don't have a field goal kicker so three points for any other team is a fourth down play for Fisher .

27 attempts and only 115 yards.

Pathetic.

He can not throw downfield. At all.

There is a difference between running some bubble screens like Bailey would and then relying on them entirely like Kramer does.

He's throw for 1100 yards so far this year. IN EIGHT GAMES!!!!!!

If he plays QB on any other team he is getting pulled.

All the bubbles are off run reads... if he were to throw down field who does he throw it to? There is NO ONE  to throw it to. The receivers this year have more drops then catches. Only reliable threat is 18 Shuey. He even fumbled today. As I said cant  throw to receivers who can't catch. Talk about bad... they are bad. But I won't criticize them because with an exception of Stell ( who is a number 3 receiver at best who is number 1 because of injuries ) who thought they'd see this much time. Its sad when your average qb is the best qb, rb, and wr on the team. Him and miller I think would be a deadly combination and let Kramer spread the field but as we see vos must not have anyone in the bank to make that happen. Therefore they try to run run run because the receivers block better than catch ... barely

If Kramer was half the QB you think he is he would be putting it right on the WRs on every attempt, however that's not the case as the ball is hardly thrown near the WRs for them to catch it...

He can not hit the broad side of a barn, how you think Kramer would be deadly if they spread the field (which they already do) just proves how delusional you are about him...

If this were true don't you think the team would adopt a true option mentality, because let's face it at best that's all Kramer really is (option QB)...

Start having his older brother call plays to get 10 yards on 4 plays instead of 3 plays and stop having the punter go out there and shank 25 yard punts...

Since NONE of that has happened I find it real hard to buy into what you are saying. They're continuing to run a spread offense with an option QB that can't throw the ball accurately...

Clearly you don't get it, there is no downfield attack because the QB can't throw so teams stack the box. If you are going to try to run any kind of option offense and continually punt on 4th down you are not going to be able to move the ball, which Kramer hasn't.

First they snuck into the playoffs, they didn't earn it on the field. Second the team made their run without Kramer at QB. You can have Vos's back all you want, I played for him. I know all about his ability to "coach". He is horrible with the clock and gets by most of the time because of the talent on the field he gets. 

You guys can go on and on about how great of a guy he is, how hard he works and all that but guess what? It doesn't translate to wins if you can't throw the ball. Which he can't.

To that dlip agrees Upstate, he can't throw the ball Downfield on any type of consistent basis. What this team needs is an offensive identity with players that are recruited to fit that type of O. They need to overhaul that side of the football with a more balanced plan and recryited personel to execute that plan (dlip just basically repeated himself). Dlip just can't believe Vos woyld put this kid at QB if he wasn't the teams best option right now. Who knows. All dlip knows is that Fisher has got to make changes (big picture) if they want to get to that "next" level. You know the level that they were soooooooooo close to the year of their awesome semi-final run.

Didn't FF99 say he was done posting?  I wish that were still true.  I'm with Upstate - that guy is completely biased to the point of delusion with Kramer.  I love how he keeps saying Kramer is throwing the ball even better this year.  ARE YOU SERIOUS?  Are we watching the same games?  The wobbling, hanging, majority of the time over/under thrown passes that he specializes in?  Those ones?  I can't even count how many times he blew opportunities to get the ball to open WR's because of his ineffectiveness.  Also why do you keep bringing up Bailey?  Sorry Bailey couldn't play defense as well.  If Tim Bailey were the QB on this team with the current defense backing him up...forget about it.  Fisher would be scary good.  If you want to argue otherwise then you'd be proving how stubborn you are.  Kramer's intangibles that you speak so highly of has led our offense nowhere all year long. 

Oh and FA91 please don't say how you just know Fenti or any of the others are so much worse after only seeing them play for the maximum of one to two games.  You don't have two year samples of how they would perform leading the offense, you just don't.  With Fenti you had one full game against the best team in the E8 and he did very well until the last few minutes.  With Ahmed you saw him be the one to fill in and do a serviceable job in the playoffs last year...leading Fisher to wins (maybe he has those same intangibles FF99?) until Kramer got back and was completely shut down by St. Thomas.

Boob-
We are going to have to agree to disagree on this
While I agree that Kramer could be used better in another position, I wont waiver from the dislike of the use of Fenti or Ahmed as a starter.

One I got back because I felt Kramer was getting attacked for no good reasons . We have already said we see the games in a different perspective . One that I think fisheralum sees much more similar to me. Two Kramer didn't play more than a series or two in Minnesota in which both were series fisher was driving . He was taken out because be was playing with a torn muscle in his leg. Three I keep saying bailey because you and upstate think he's god when he never got fisher in the playoffs. When it comes down to it and you look at Kramer was the starting qb for a playoff team and bailey wasn't. Vos coaches and pledges team chemistry..last year they had it this year they don't. All I'm saying is you say Kramer can't throw the ball when honestly the only game he was throwing it was Alfred . Pete and gene said TEN drop balls and three were on the end zone. Kramer shouldn't be playing qb but its not all his fault. He has no offensive players around him but 13 and 18. You don't need a pass game that puts up big numbers to win (proven last year ) you and upstate are just in love with passing yards and TDs when honestly all I enjoy talking about is wins . Heck fisher is not doing what we hoped they would but they are still 6-3 and think they will end up 7-3. Ive said it before and will again and i know fa91 agrees with me Vos knows his players and his team better than we do... if Kramer wasn't the answer he wouldn't have played every game except one hurt at no more than 75% of full health. Its not his brothers decision its the head coaches to say who ultimately plays and competes as the starting qb

Do you honestly think Kramer led them to the playoffs?

They got lucky and became the second two loss team to get in since 99 due to lucky breaks across the board. Fisher went 8-2 in 2011. Guess what fisher went in 2010? 8-2. They ROLLED people week in and week out for 8 weeks in 2010. In their two losses they scored 49 and 31 points. Their two losses their defense didn't show up like they have for the past two years.

In fact Kramer had squat to do with their two NCAA wins so you can't even say he led them on a run there.

You're obviously attached to him, family perhaps, to get this butt hurt because people say he's not a good QB. This Fisher offense is the worst offense in a decade with Kramer at QB, not a coincidence. Kramer and this offense has put the team in bad position time and time again. Yet you can't see that. Teams actually laugh at the idea of Kramer beating them deep and if you are that one dimensional you're toast.

Not family just a fan of a kid that I think deserves more credit than you give him. The way you talk makes it sounds like you're a defensive guy so you must be family to fox. Name who on offense did more for fisher last yr then Kramer (with the exception of balzcersak) nobody... and don't give me the bull**** its because he couldn't get anyone the ball because that really is ridiculous. Coaches find ways to give their beat players the ball. It just so happens vos let's kramer touch it every play. My favorite player on the team is sant. Local boy who went from nobody to superstar but as I said I'm a fan of Kramer and fisher. You just find ways to kill this offense and this kid
You go help coach the team ... vos would let you if you were a former player unless you are a nobody who never played or strongly dislike the guy.

And let's compare baileys offense to this offense. 2010: east region offensive poy at qb, all conference Rb, arguable the best wr core in America (4 guys better than the best one they have this year) two senior tight ends, four senior linemen with the fifth being an all American (making two all american tackles) now this year: the all conference running back at qb, arguably the best Rb in the league right now, no receiver worth the time to mention, a four yr college ball player who hasn't played football simce high school.... exactly

Of course Kramer has his best game ever at QB while FA91 is in attendance.  There will be no convincing him now   :P


Sort of frustrating to see this on the last game of the regular season...but I'm happy for the guys on the team.  I'm sure this one feels good.

I would remind him and others that "one game does not a career make"; but you're right, it won't matter. Now this game will be all the evidence they'll ever need or use.

Post by: boobyhasgameyo on November 10, 2012, 02:52:25 PM
I will say that the play calling has massively improved this game as well.  Perhaps it is because the Utica defense is questionable but we are at long last deviating from the horizontal passing game and actually throwing the ball downfield.  Kramer is making the throws on time today, they are downfield, and this is the result.

Bengalsrule: When did the game start? Thought it was a 1 p.m. kickoff. Seems to be running later than all the others.

Final from Merrill Field: RPI 24, Alfred 21
Saxons dig themselves into an 18-7 halftime hole, come out and score twice in the third to take a 21-18 lead but couldn't muster much after that.
RPI got FIVE field goals from PK Andrew Franks from 31, 50, 45, 40 and the game winner of 37 with about a minute remaining.
Saxons looked like it was their first game of the season...RPI looked like they had a game under their belt.

On Saxon Warriors!

Funny you should ask Pep. I thought the game started at 1 also so I set up a haircut apt for my son and I at 3:45. Got to the game around 1 to see both teams warming up.  :-[  Found out then that the game started at 2. Fortunately it gave me time to take my cleaning to the dry cleaners and stop at La Nova's and get some pizza.

  I missed the whole 3rd quarter and most of the 4th. But I got back in time to see Buff State thwart B-Port's 2 conversion and the BENGALS come back and answer with the final t.d..  Too many penalties for my BENGALS. I doubt they will beat Wisconsin-Whitewater playing the way they played today.

  Brockport is a very versatile team. Something tells me that they will be a team to be reckoned with this year!!

  Sorry to hear about your Saxons, but you are always a class act..win or lose!!! ;)

UWW comes right back in 4 plays to make it 38-7...

I guess they took a couple of pages out of Cortland St and Brockport St, but their defense is tenacious.

I'm hoping they don't either ( give up triple digits)!! Just left the game after uww fumble return for a td!  Not much to add to what's been said. 2 different teams going at it right now. One varsity and the other jv!

Hopefully my BENGALS can make it respectful in the 2nd half.  Thank God conference play starts next week!

Go BENGALS!!

Surprising close game at Growney...

17-13 Fisher up late in first half with Bobcats driving deep into Fisher territory...

Frostburgh throws a pick on the 10, Fisher DB picks it off and runs all the way inside the Frostburgh 5 yd line but the QB ran him down and knocked the ball loose and rolled out of the endzone...

Huge opportunity lost for Fisher to take control of the game but a hell of a play by the Frostburgh QB...
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Upstate on October 05, 2013, 03:19:00 PM
Frostburgh gets the ball back on the touch back and marches all the way down to the 1 yard line only to fumble the ball with 1.7 seconds remaining in the half...

Fisher does not look good at all on offense. Not staying with blocks on offense has really limited the running game for Fisher...

Defensively they're OK, Frostburgh scored on a one yard blocked punt return so the D has only allowed one TD drive. They've forced 2 turnovers when backed up inside their own 5 to keep this lead for Fisher...

Post by: Upstate on October 05, 2013, 04:28:11 PM
Huge KR by Kramer to the 'Burgh 40yd line...

Fisher runs the ball the remaining distance over a few plays and Miller punches it in from 9 yards out to retake the lead...

38-35...

Kramer has gotten them 3 huge returns to at least the 'Burgh's 40 yard line, Fisher has scored on each of those opportunities...

Post by: AUKaz00 on October 05, 2013, 04:49:47 PM
Another crazy one for Alfred.  After everything breaking their way in the first quarter, less a missed XP, the Saxons held a 20-0 lead.  Buff State then had the run of play the rest of the way, scoring at the end of the half and on the first possession of the second, to make it 20-14.  Near the end of the third, Alfred scored again to stretch the lead back to 13, but the Bengals answered immediately.  After holding the Saxons, Buff State then marched down the field and punched it in only to miss the XP.  Neither team could take advantage in the waning moments so OT for Mayberry again.  Alfred scored a touchdown on their possession, but missed another XP.  Buff State then shot inside the 10 before getting stopped by at the 20 setting up 3rd and goal from the 20 that was picked off.  Only, the Saxon defender decided to run it out, got stripped at the 1 and have it recovered as a TD for the Bengals!  Buff State lined up for the winning XP, again, and had it blocked!  In double OT, Buff State could not convert and Alfred moved the ball down to the 2 where they punched it in for the win.  Looking forward to triple OT up on South Hill next week!
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates

really shaky effort by the Cardinals...

38-35 is the final, not really impressive at all today...

A lot of east west running by the Cardinals again, Fenti was up and down but made a nice throw on the TD to Nigolian...

Defensively they were lucky the 'Burgh RB couldn't catch. The screen game was wide open all day and the RB had the ball bounce of his chest on 4 of the 6 screen passes. Saw a ton of zone today again and the 'Burgh QB made them pay...

If they drop, they deserved it because today was not impressive at all...

Post by: Upstate on October 05, 2013, 06:00:25 PM
The DB picking off a pass then running 80 yards only to get stripped by the QB and have the ball roll out the end zone was the play of the game for both teams. Could have had another 7 on the board going into the 3rd and Fisher was getting the ball back to start the 3rd. Missed a chance to end the game there but let them stay around after a huge hustle play by their QB...

Back from the UC - SU game.
There are no words to describe this disaster.
Is UC that bad?  I don't think so- but they were pitiful today.
Is SU that good? No..Any quality E8 team that stacks the box and plays the option well wins out.
There was absolutely no downfield threat and yet they were successful.
This may be the year that Fisher beats SU...but after that Frostb performance--who the hell knows!

Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Upstate on October 12, 2013, 02:53:14 PM
Hartwick pins Fisher deep in own end, forces a punt and gets a great return inside Fisher's 20...

They punch it in on a 1 yard TD run a few plays later to tie it at 7...

Fisher then takes the ball and marches 65 yards and scores on a Miller 5 yard run to go up 14-7...
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Upstate on October 12, 2013, 03:13:23 PM
Teams exchanged punts then Hartwick gets a drive going to end the half but ultimately gets sacked on a hail mary attempt at midfield...

Still 14-7...

Fisher is really hit or miss on offense. Fenti is inaccurate today, he isn't making mistakes with the ball but he's missing on his ball placement with open WRs...

Fisher D is swarming and is giving Hartwick's line a lot of problems...
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Upstate on October 12, 2013, 03:43:12 PM
Fisher takes the ball in the 2nd and marches down to the Wick 2 but ends up kicking a FG on 4th down to go up 17-7...

Ithaca physically dominates Alfred 17-6.

I know that sounds strange, but you had to be there. Ithaca, missing quarterback Phil Neumann, who was out with an injury, flat out punishes Alfred's defensive line. Rakim Jones runs 31 times for 170 yards, and Samuto adds 11 carries for 50 yards. Tom Dempsy goes an efficient 14-for-20 for 166 yards. Ithaca has the ball for over 38 minutes.

I was umimpressed with Alfred's offense. Johnson didn't do much of anything downfield, and Alfred's running backs had 20 yards on three carries. Johnson threw for 292 yards, but the biggest plays were runs after the catch. He completed less than 50 percent of his passes, and turned it over three times. Yes, both picks were the kinds of throws you have to make when you're down 11 points with less than five minutes to go, and your kickers are a non-entity. He had a pick 6 that was dropped and his fumble was a killer.

Ithaca's coaching staff, deserves an A+. Great game plan

What he said.

Was a nice day for a ride to Ithaca. Ithaca's offensive and defensive lines dominated all day, much like Alfred's lines did at Merrill Field last year. Johnson was AU's leading rusher with 59 yards on 9 carries. AU could not run the ball. IC RB Rakim Jones had a tremendous game...falling forward for 2 or more 3 yards after initial hits. It was IC's Homecoming and AU's Mid-Semester Break.

Was very cool to see IC grads, on their wedding day, have wedding photos taken on ButterField prior to the game. Nice also to see members of the Bombers' 1988 National Championship team out on the field at halftime. Bombers played like champions today.

Congrats Ithaca on a well-played game...good luck the rest of the way!

On Saxon Warriors!

Yeah I was impressed by the Wick D, much better unit than what they've put out in previous years. They look like they got bigger across the line and aren't a bunch of 5'11" 200lb guys running around with their heads cut off. The D-line by Wick made it hard for Fisher to run the ball and made some real nice penetration throughout the game.

Anyone have an official score of the Wick/Alfred game?  I turned it on at the start of the 3rd, and everything says 28-21 Alfred at half.  Looks like Alfred scored a TD on their first possession of the 3rd, and then Wick matched it.  I think it is 35-28 Alfred...with Wick just getting the ball back after an Alfred punt...near the end of the 3rd.  Can anyone confirm that I am close?

About to end the first quarter scoreless at Ithaca: SJF had a chance deep inside the red zone but the running back fumbled it at the 1 and Ithaca recovered in the end zone for a touchback.

Only live stats for Alfred today, so I have the audio-less Fishaca up as well.

Alfred struck first with a 33 yd FG and then got a pick-six (missed XP) for a 9-0 lead early in the 2nd.  Oh, and FSU's last drive was stopped at the 1 just before the quarter.

EDIT: Fisher's passing continues to eat up the Ithaca secondary.  But for the lack of a few conversions, the Cards would be on top.  Currently 19-14, Bombers.

2 point attempt is GOOD, Ithaca 25 SJF 22 with 2:53 to go.  Onside kick certainly coming up.  Fisher used all its timeouts in the last IC possession.

Was it so offensive to the sensibilities to call for a potential IC win now?  Like I said, I expected Fisher to win, but having been on these boards (on and off anyway) for a decade now I sometimes think any prediction of a Fisher loss in conference is going to cause an uproar even if it's a perfectly reasonable thing to say.  Now the question is can the East region get any pool C now?

Honestly, no.  Looking over the east, the ONLY possibility I could see is if St. Lawrence beat Hobart for the Liberty League title, leaving Hobart at 9-1, but I don't know if the schedule would be enough to get them there.  There's no way 2 losses is getting Pool C consideration at this point, maybe look at that again in 2 weeks time. EDIT: And with SLU losing to Springfield, that is gone.

EDIT to add: And this day in the Empire 8 is complete.  FINAL- Buffalo State 34 Utica 19.

Was it so offensive to the sensibilities to call for a potential IC win now?  Like I said, I expected Fisher to win, but having been on these boards (on and off anyway) for a decade now I sometimes think any prediction of a Fisher loss in conference is going to cause an uproar even if it's a perfectly reasonable thing to say.  Now the question is can the East region get any pool C now?

This.

Don't be ridiculous.  There is FA91 who seems to take offense but if you read his posts that is his general nature - to be a little more on the passionate side.  Where is the uproar from the rest of us?  Cards, Upstate, me?  If you think any of us were acting upset then I'd hate to see what you think when it actually does happen.

Initial SU drive stalls after a few first downs at the Alfred 35.  Punt down to the Alfred 1.

Alfred drives 99 yards to take the lead - big play on an out and up route where WR got way behind the SU DB for about 35-40 yards.

7-0 Saxons - very impressive initial drive
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: gterror on November 02, 2013, 12:58:50 PM
Very good game to this point.

Alfred has a solid drive following an SU fumble with some nice 3rd down conversions.

Salisbury responds with a 40 yd TD on a play-action pass. 

14 all like 3 or 4 min til half.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: gterror on November 02, 2013, 01:15:56 PM
Alfred up 21-14 at half

Double pass (swing to WR and then deep ball) with about 2 min left to take the lead.  2nd TD earlier was on a fake reverse pass.  Well executed surprise plays.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: BomberJeff on November 02, 2013, 01:51:50 PM
Salisbury ties it back up at 21 with 6:36 to go in the 3rd.  SU forces Alfred into having to punt deep in their end zone, and they make the good field possession count to bring us back level.

EDIT: And just before halftime, Ithaca picks up a touchdown on a 67 yard punt return.  Miss the extra point- Ithaca 13 Frostburg 0.

Fisher is dominating Utica early in losing technique - down 13-0 after one quarter.  Terrible weather conditions today.  Also, not to make excuses or anything but both of Utica's touchdowns were blatant misses by the refs.  The first touchdown occurred after the wide receiver literally pushed the DB to the ground in the end zone.  The second TD was a nice play but the WR trapped the ball off the ground.  He didn't catch it first.  Stepnick style.

Yes, indeed and from what I watch today, if Ithaca stays true to what they have been doing the last couple weeks, they should be able to win this game by a considerable margin.

Ithaca's defense is absolutely unreal. They allow just 86 yards and six first downs, while collecting four sacks.

On the season, the Bombers defense has allowed just 86 points in eight games. Salisbury-Ithaca is going to be interesting.

Boobs, I know it had zero chances of happening. It's just what you do when you're down 24.

I will second that. IC just got it done all year. I am not sure if that result is good or bad for Fisher, but I was counting on the ECAC game anyway so I guess it doesn't matter. Hopefully IC can take care of Cortland and do some damage in the playoffs.

Cortland jumps into the lead with an 81 yard drive after a lot of early stalling between the two teams.  Cortland 7 Ithaca 0 at 1:36 to go in the first quarter.

Eh, we can switch to the Cortaca one, it  just happens the updates had been in here most of the season.  Maybe this could focus more on Alfred/SJF so we have less overlap.

Alfred 7 Saint John Fisher 0 midway through the first quarter.  Saxons come up with an interception on the first Fisher drive of the game and follows with a 6 minute drive to put up the early lead on a QB keeper.

More than ugly by our offense.  I think our defense did a fine job of limiting John Carroll.  Their touchdown pass was nearly tipped.  The DB missed it by a matter of inches.

You know there are some similarities between Fisher playing JCU and JHU two years ago in the playoffs.  Both teams had extremely highly touted Quarterbacks and Fisher forced both QB's into multiple interceptions and they had their worst games of the season.

Alfred loses about 40 yards in field position on 2 personal fouls and a fumble, then the punter picks the snap off the ground and gets off a punt that rolls all the way to Cortland's 25.  Still 21-14, Saxons with 6 minutes left.

Just over 2 minutes left and as Tyler Johnson is getting pulled down, it looked like he tried to lateral the ball but fumbled it instead.  Somehow Alfred recovered.  Cortland using their timeouts, so they'll have one last chance to tie it up.

I may have to hustle back from South Carolina for the Fisher game.  Watched your second half against JCU and Fisher looked very tough.  JCU drive for the field goal consisted of a roughing the punter penalty and a pass interference.  Another drive also consisted of a pass interference call.  JCU did nothing in the second half, SJF played harder and had more balance.  Good special teams too.  Hats off to the Cardinals who were more weather proof.  See you in the Lake Trout Capital of the World!

Pep drove back from D.C. last evening and did NOT see any snowflakes until his arrival in Mayberry, where there's still snow on the ground.

Alfland Mug appears to lack the interest of the Cortaca Jug, with attendance listed as 101. (The football players outnumbered those in attendance?) And Pep did not hear of any riots in the streets in Cortland.

Congrats to the Saxons on a solid 8-3 entertaining season. 'Tis good to be a Saxon fan!

TD Wesley.  6-0 with a missed XP.

Wesley throws a deep ball tipped by IC cornerback on a nice play, but caught at the 5 by Wesley to set up that TD.

Ithaca had 2 nice plays up to that bonehead INT.

Wittenburg up 7-0 over MUC.

TD Wesley.

Another long pass (this time the WR was open and beat his coverage) down to the IC 5 before punching it in.  Wesley QB playing with poise, and IC not getting the same pressure that Wesley is.

16-7 Wesley.

16-7 Wesley still.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Jonny Utah on November 30, 2013, 01:10:34 PM
Wesley missed a FG with 16 seconds left.  Bombers down the ball, 16-7 Wesley at halftime now.

My halftime thoughts:

-Wesley QB Callahan is doing a great job getting the ball out with accurate throws with decent pressure on him, and his WRs are making plays as well.  Only 1 or 2 sloppy mistakes on the Wesley offensive side.

-Ithaca's oline and running backs are not getting the job done for the 3rd week in a row.  The pass protection has been sloppy, and the backs don't have much to work with.  Dempsey has been accurate, but has made 2-3 dumb mistakes, including a horrible INT that shouldn't have been thrown.  Ithaca's WRs have been pretty good, but have also dropped 1 or 2 balls that need to be caught in a game like this.

-Wesley kicked it short the 2nd two kickoffs, and this has helped them.

-Wesley's defense has done the job so far.  I guess they haven't done anything that Framingham State didn't do last week, but they have gotten some good pressure on Dempsey.

-Ithaca's defense has been pretty solid except for 2 big pass plays.  One of the kind of fluky, the other one simply beat them.

No worries, FA91.  Still luv ya.   :P

It's a case of a lot of bounces going well early for SJF, allowing them to take a two possession lead, a deficit Hobart hadn't faced all season.  It sort of forced a little desperation too early, and once SJF took a three possession lead, it pretty much killed Hobart's chances, especially with the wind.  SJF is a very good team, with what appears to be a defense that is still improving.  The Committee made a correct decision allowing SJF in, much like in 2011, and it keeps that SOS focus (objective and subjective) as a key factor in future years because it's becoming self-proving, thanks to especially SJF. 

Represent the East well at one of my three favorite non-East locations next week -- Belton, Texas.  I'm considering taking a jaunt to Alliance next week -- we'll see what happens.

Backside official threw the flag.  It was a close call, no doubt to me.  As such, I have no problem with the call and discussion getting it right in the minds of the officials.  Too much at stake to not discuss it carefully.  I wish more crews handled it that way.

I agree.  You will see this happen more I believe.  The refs can protect themselves by basically having them all agree with the call instead of one of them taking all the heat.  Good no call.

If Fisher eliminates the turnovers they are losing 9-6 at the half. I feel like they are right there with the CRU, but the offense may have dug them too big a hole with the two early picks. Can't do that against teams this good.

If you need any proof of how really good teams take advantage of certain plays see the first quarter when UMHB was up 12-0 before they got a first down. Safety, field goal off a turnover, and a pick 6.

Yeah that punt to pin SJF on their two set that entire sequence up...

No to complain but it looked as Fenti was out of the pocket and got the ball past the line of scrimmage on that safety...

Have to double check the intentional grounding rules for the NCAA...

Tackle box is the college rule, not the pocket.  Widens the real estate.  Also must throw the ball to or past the line of scrimmage.  A lot of people use the NFL rule to complain, but it's a tougher standard in college.  I didn't see this play, so I can't comment on it specifically.

Doesn't matter if the player was outside the tackle box and throws the ball to or past the line of scrimmage.  If he remained in the tackle box, then your insight would be relevant as he would lose the safe harbor exception.

Little swing pass springs Alfred for the opening score. Kickoff was short and returnes for the tying touchdown 7 all with 14 min left in the half.

AU drives 85 yds for the score. 14-7, Saxons with 10 to go in the half.

Alfred breaks a tackle and punches it in, but the XP attempt becomes a 2-pt try on a botched snap. 20-7, Alfred with 4min left and Husson driving.

Husson kicks a FG as time runs out on the half. 20-10, Alfred.

Brockport beats Cortland 17-14 after another last minute screw up by the Red Dragons.

4th and goal from the 1, with about 40 seconds left. It looked like they couldn't decide what to do. So they scrambled on the field goal unit (I think), but false started with 3 seconds remaining. They had no time outs, so a ten second run off, the game was over.

Sucks that they gave up that late TD but those catches were great plays by the WR to go get the ball.

They get the ball to start the 3rd so hopefully they get the TD back.

EDIT- Chris Matthews has just come up with an interception for the Bombers, returning to to the Alfred 35.  Huge potential swing here.

Ithaca punts after the turnover. Alfred is then forced to punt but it is somewhat shanked, only going about 15 yards and giving the Bombers the ball at the 50.

On the first play of the following possession, Ithaca gets a 20 yard pass and then gets another 15 yards tacked on due to a Roughing the Passer penalty.

AND TOUCHDOWN BOMBERS!  On 3rd down, Vito Boffoli makes the catch and get it just over the line for his 2nd TD of the day.

Extra point is good.  Ithaca 17 Alfred 6 with 11:08 to go.

In the first half, the Alfred defense certainly kept Ithaca in check.  They were able to hold them down well and Ithaca could not make it count on 4th down twice.

In the second half, Ithaca was far more in control of the situation.  They seemed to be able to do largely what they wanted minus a couple of small things.  Alfred in the second half had a lot of little mistakes add up.

Okay, how about this Ithaca defense? On the road, on turf, against a mobile QB whose team is averaging 32 points a game, and they hold them to six? That's a statement.

I have to say, Ithaca has really impressed me this season.

Fisher shanks a punt and gives up a long TD pass just before the half. They drive back down, and get a TD, when Ngolian saves a drive with a one-handed catch on third down. They trail 17-14 at the break.

I think this helps them turn it around. Fisher's WRs are really, really, good, and I just don't see Fenti being stopped

Touchdown Ithaca- The Bombers start at their own 9 yard line and puts together a 14 play drive to cover the 91 yards, ending on a Tom Dempsey touchdown pass to Vito Boffoli.  That drive took nearly 7 minutes off the clock.

it is tough to watch the annual Salisbury v SJF game. 

reminds way back in the day some of the Springfield games circa '04 to '07.  all offense no Defense.

Option football / Salisbury football is such a gimmick, but the SJF D-Unit hasn't exactly shown yet it can stop it.

Sigh. This is absolutely a mental thing at this point. I just don't get it. Yes, Salisbury might be better than we thought, but it's hard to accept that Wesley can obliterate them while Fisher just can't get going.

Fisher's WR's are some of the best I've seen, and they're going to put up points every week, but Fisher's just got to figure out how to defend the option at some point and shut these guys down. Import some grass for that week if you need to. But a sobering loss

Agreed.  They wouldn't know what to do with themselves if they were 10-0 at the end of the regular season.  I don't know what the rest of the season will hold...but if this Fisher team makes the playoffs I believe they could do some serious damage.  So long as your name isn't Salisbury/Springfield of course :)   .  It's a talented team.

Sure, we all have the dud games, but Fisher's also 0-6 all-time against Salisbury despite having some superior teams (at least the last two seasons). I still think Fisher is a special team. Those WRs will kill people all year, and they're well-coached. But now every week is going to be do-or-die, because getting in at 8-2 is tricky. Here's hoping Fisher rebounds

Kyle Hoppy, the main Bengals QB, seems to have an injury issue (possibly head).  He's been taken out twice this series and is now being looked at. (Edit: and then put right back in next play.)

As for the game, the Bombers had held the Bengals to a 3 and out, only to give it right back when they fumble the punt return.  Meanwhile, the Bengals have collected 7 penalties so far.  Game full of mistakes by both teams.

After what was a very long drive due to some penalties, the Bombers punch it in again, this time on a pass to Ben Cary from 4 yards out.  A 55 yard drive that took 12 plays and almost 7 minutes

Buffalo 7 Ithaca 17, 4:59 left 2nd Quarter.

The Bombers have had 243 yards of offense to the Bengals 32.

EDIT- Following the kickoff, the Bombers came up with an interception in the first play of the next Bengals drive, getting the ball on the Buffalo 8.  3 plays later though, the Bengals came up with another interception in the end zone.  Like I said, a game full of mistakes.

Fenti takes a QB keeper into the end zone and is tackled, fumbles the ball AFTER he crosses the line.  How is that not a touchdown you ask?  I don't know, ask the refs.  Ruled a touchback.

Buffalo State puts together its first long drive of the day even with their starting QB Mark Hoppy still sidelined.  They go 80 yards (thanks in large part to 2 receptions of over 25 yards) and Edwin Young makes the final catch for a 7 yard touchdown.  Dan Serignese seems to be the guy for now.

Ithaca goes for it on 4th and 7 on the Buffalo 10, Tom Dempsey finds Ben Cary in the back of the end zone, but the refs rule that Cary went out of bounds on his own then went back in, invalidating the catch.  Turn over on downs for IC.

Ithaca catches a break early.  Against option teams it is critical to get a jump on them early and make them play from behind.  Already down 3-0 the Salisbury QB drops back to pass on 2nd and short, trips and falls over himself for a loss of 6 yards.  They couldn't convert on 3rd and long, punt the ball back to Ithaca who is driving.

Ithaca drive comes to a halt, they punt, Salisbury player muffs it and Ithaca recovers.  That is gift #2.  Let's see if Ithaca can convert.


Yup -they convert on the very next play for a TD.

Ithaca 10
Salisbury 0

For god sake.  Salisbury player breaks contain to the outside but slips on the grass and falls over untouched.  Salisbury is forced to punt.  Ithaca is playing well and sticking to their assignments, but Fisher received none of these gratuities against the Steaks.

Don't worry E8 sports fans - I've got your back.

After the 1st quarter it is 10-0 Ithaca.  The Bombers will start the second quarter with the ball in the redzone.  If they score here it could start to get ugly.

Post by: boobyhasgameyo on October 25, 2014, 12:31:15 PM
Holy crap.  So the Bombers run the wildcat formation on 2nd down and a high snap goes over the wide receivers head, he eventually falls on it.  So on 3rd and 27 Dempsey does exactly what you'd expect - throws a TD pass.

Ithaca 16 (missed XP)
Salisbury 0

Post by: boobyhasgameyo on October 25, 2014, 12:47:00 PM
Missed FG attempt by Ithaca and the score remains 16-0 with about 6 minutes left in the first half. 

On the following Salisbury drive, first play, Dunbar throws an interception.  This is what happens when an option team starts to get down big.  Nice work Ithaca.  Let's see if they can put some more points on the board and really put the squeeze on.

Post by: boobyhasgameyo on October 25, 2014, 12:54:25 PM
Ithaca manages a 45 yard field goal to go up 19-0 with a little over 2 minutes in the half.  Their kicker has made a 41 and 45 yard field goal today, missed another 45 yard attempt. 

Great work by Ithaca's offensive line in the 1st half.  Dempsey has had an embarrassingly long amount of time in the pocket.

Sloppy first half of the game for Fisher.  A short punt by ASC led to the ball inadvertently bouncing off a Fisher player/Alfred recovers, a lot of false start penalties, etc.  Despite those things, still up 28-0 at the half.  Alfred State is doing a fairly decent job of containing the run, but they can't match up with our wide receivers to save their lives. 

R.I.P.  Video stream.  I hate you.

47-0 Fisher in the 4th. 

2 blocked extra points, a load of penalties, and a terrible punting game.  This game is actually working out well, Fisher gets the blowout but they aren't going to be happy about it.  The coaches will have plenty to yell at them about this week.

Some of the stats from this game are pretty ugly.

Alfred State has 51 yards so far on 51 plays.  Negative 14 yards rushing.

The Fisher game was what we all expected, but the rest of the games? Just another week in the E8.

I thought IC could beat SU, but to take them to the woodshed like that...not so much. Not after last week. And the UC / Buff State game is the total opposite of what I expected as well. Every week in this conference my opinion of certain teams totally changes.

But the drive stalls at the Brockport 7 yard line and the Eagles escape the cage with the 17-12 win.
On 4th and 1 from the 7, Hartwick completes a pass in the end zone but was ruled out of bounds.
'Tis a game of inches.

Pep was pleased that the 4th down completion, good for 26 yards, was a reception for freshman WR Carl Holmes, a graduate of Cuba-Rushford Central School and an acquaintance of Pep. Holmes finished the day with 7 receptions for 79 yards. Good game, Carl!

Fisher did not play a good half. A lot of miscues on defense, bad penalties, and some bad tackling. Also got stuffed on a first and goal from inside the 5 at the end of the half. However, Fisher is still leading 24-17 with Buff State getting the ball after the half.

Post by: BomberJeff on November 01, 2014, 01:31:46 PM
...Well, the internet and broadcasting has gone out at Brockport.  So no new information with Ithaca having a first and goal on the 1, up 3-0 with about 4 minutes to go in the first quarter.  I would assume they got to 10-0, but obviously that is just an assumption.

Not a good day for the offenses so far, but Ithaca got a big break when a combination of lost yards and a big punt return gave them a drive starting on the Brockport 24.

EDIT- And now confirmed: Ithaca 10 Brockport 0, Ithaca then apparently got an interception but got nowhere with it.

Fisher is one win away from the AQ.  If they beat Ithaca next week that will give everyone else at least 3 losses in conference (assuming Brockport loses this game).  At that point it won't matter if Alfred beats us by 100.

Avevedo has a 57 yard punt return for a TD and a 32-yard TD pass reception for UC.

And the 4th down interception loses about 20 yards for Utica....there was a time when AU had a DB who made some nice interceptions on fourth down that cost the Saxons about 40 yards....

Good game, Pioneers! Saxons fell asleep in the second half. Must have been the late start.  ;)

TOUCHDOWN BOMBERS.  Chris Bower catches the quick underneath pass on the far side, slips out of 2 tackles and clears the 20 yards for the 6 points.  And... the extra point hits the upright and bounces off.

Ithaca adds another field goal (this time from 31 yards by Nicholson) after forcing a 3 and out and 1 big play took them to the Hobart 20, only to stall out on the 14.

Ithaca 12 Hobart 0, 2:29 left in the 2nd Quarter.

Hobart had a great kickoff return to their own 48, had a great QB scramble make it to the Ithaca 22... only for them to then get picked off again (3rd interception, 4th turnover overall) to stop the drive and keep a 2 score edge for the Bombers entering into the 2nd half.

HALFTIME: Ithaca 12 Hobart 0.

Well, Hobart puts together a good drive to start the 2nd half, but Ithaca stalls them out at the 14, and Hobart's subsequent 31 yard field goal is wide.

The funny thing is that is literally the only positive to take away from the 1st half.  Not entirely worried about the running game developing throughout the season and our wide receivers are obviously proven commodities...but QB play has been suspect.  Offensive line, questionable.  Secondary?  Yikes. 

But hey, it's just the first half of the first game.  At least Fisher will have two weeks to prepare for the E8 season after this.

Cortland 54-36 over Framingham with about 10 minutes to finish line. Can't come soon enough for defensively-challenged RDragons. With momentum shifting to host Rams early in fourth frame, CState faces 4th-and-17 with 47-36 lead. Punter gets roughing call and Dragons' K. Schneider and J.

This is not a good Fisher team.

At all.

The QB is erratic, the line isn't good at all, the Defense is undisciplined and gives up big play after big play.

The ONLY way this team is winning games is if the RBs/WRs somehow make plays.

Cortland's offense is using Fisher's aggressiveness against them and is using a ton of misdirection and is just killing them with big play after big play.

Fisher is running around on Defense with no clue as to where the ball is.

fine analysis

most would say the team is quite timid right now.  . . . the first two games of this season's flatness only matched when they came out sleepwalking vs IC to win the  Empire 8 . . . maybe its the emotional scaring of having a coaching staff that let its program down by taking a knee vs. Salisbury.

SJF strikes for early third quarter FG. Cortland uptempo play holds forth for most of the period.

Hobart starts a drive with just under 5 minutes to go and about 85 yards to go.  Play one is a sack... and play two sees an interception, with Ithaca returning it to the Hobart 8.  This one appears to be over.

Ithaca 17 Hobart 6, 3:30 left.

UPDATE- Ithaca gets it down to the 2, then get help from a personal foul penatly.  With another first and goal, thsi time on the 1, Tristan Brown goes off left and nobody's there to stop him.  Touchdown Bombers, and they add the extra point.

Well, the Bombers commit an interception on their first possession of the game, and then on another possession Alfred opted to go for it on 4th and 21 on the IC 30 but the pass went nowhere.  Defense is the name of the game as has usually been the case in Bombers games so far this season.

Ithaca 0 Alfred 0, 7:30 left First quarter.
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: BomberJeff on September 26, 2015, 01:30:51 PM
Ithaca commits the 2nd turnover of the game, this time another interception as Schafer overthrows his receiver and its an easily pick up.  Alfred now on the IC 40... and on the first play off scrimmage, completes a 24 yard pass on the right to get to the IC 16.  Alfred runs one more time and we hit the end of the quarter.

End of the First- Ithaca 0 Alfred 0.

EDIT UPDATE- Alfred gets to the Ithaca 5, but is then held up on 2 runs and throws an incompletion.  Alfred kicks for the field goal and takes the lead.

12:36 to go 2nd Q- Ithaca 0 Alfred 3.

ADDITIONAL UPDATE- And on the kickoff following, Jordan Schemm makes a big run through the kickoff team.  He runs out of gas but not before taking Ithaca to the Alfred 11 on the return.

24-21 Cortland at the half. The Red Dragon secondary has been the Achilles heel. The offensive unit is pretty dynamic in both the run and pass game. The run defense has played well, but in any passing situation Utica capitalized. Not to take anything away from Utica, their offense has been  fun to watch from a Pioneers' fan p.o.v.  From a Red Dragon's view....not so much

A bit of back and forth to start the 2nd half, but Ithaca gets first score after converting a 3rd and goal on the 8 with a pass to an open Josh Oliver in the back of the end zone.

3:16 left in the 3rd- Ithaca 21 Alfred 10

Big letoff there by Ithaca.  The Bombers shank a punt badly, giving Alfred field position in the Ithaca half.  Then, they force a sack that would have given them a 3rd and long goal situation, but the sacker then gets called for taunting, giving Alfred a new wave of downs.  First play after, they get an 8 yard pass for the touchdown on the left.

Alfred then goes for 2 and gets it in the other end of the end zone.

10:03 left in the game- Ithaca 21 Alfred 18.

Tristan Brown coming up with the big play for Ithaca here.  It looked like a pretty short run on the draw, but Brown gets the turnaround off a defender and then a perfect cut going from the right sideline to the left and he extends the arm over the goal line for the touchdown before the final defender can cut him off.

8:24 left- Ithaca 28 Alfred 18

EDIT UPDATE- PICK AND SIX!  Kenny Bradley gets the read on the pass from Tyler Johnson, has it covered the entire time, and returns it back 45 yards for the touchdown that looks likely to put this one away for the Bombers.

7:04 left- Ithaca 35 Alfred 18

Fisher responds with a 60 yard fake punt.....for a TD.   Their punter is also one of their best athletes..Brandon Fuentes. They faked confusion lining up for a punt. They snapped the ball to the punter Fuentes and he took off running for a TD untouched. Nice trickery for 6.
Now 14-7 and Fisher may have life.

Post by: boobyhasgameyo on September 26, 2015, 08:22:38 PM
No matter what the outcome I'm just happy that Fisher actually did some of the things I said that I wished they would do.  Fake punt that led to a td, Danny is a more mobile QB so that allows the option to be in play again and they have been using a variety of different formations.  They even went to an empty backfield formation in the first time since God knows when and it led to a wide receiver being wide open for a touchdown. 

Now if the defense can pick it up then the team will be making some noticeable strides since week 1.

Well that was an interesting game.  Fisher had multiple opportunities to win the game but squandered them.  Then Brockport has the biggest choke of them all by missing an XP to tie the game and force it into triple overtime. 

Fun to watch though!  Fisher's offense really started to turn it around in the 3rd quarter and beyond.  Offensive line was getting more push too which was nice to see.  The defense still makes me sad but at least the team as a whole seems to be incrementally improving.

I'll start off with - "Buff State is using SJF's aggressiveness against them" . . . there I won't upset the Upstate troll

Now for those of us that know football:  SJF's D-Line is awful, they are in 4 point stances and their first move is up and not forward, the linebackers lack fire, and the DBs do not possess athleticism.

The offense not that much better, the two QBs move in slow motion and have zero field generalship.

It is hard to believe that the coaching staff failed this miserably in the recruiting game -- with Fenti set to graduate you telling me they couldn't find a better QB that these two slow slugs???

Ithaca making the first mistake against Utica.  Opening drive ends in an interception when the pass is tipped into the defender's hands.  Utica just inside Ithaca territory.  0-0, 9 minutes to go in the first.

EDIT- Ultimately Ithaca gets away with it.  Forces a 4th and long and Utica sees the pass go just incomplete.  2nd time Utica's gone for it on 4th down, missed both times.  0-0, 6:25 in the first.

I think interfering with the returner is automatically a personal foul, it was a 15 yard penalty.  But this gets back to something I mentioned off last week: Ithaca just keeps committing more penalties.  Its preventable stuff like this that just adds up after time.

Woo boy Ithaca needed that one.  Not a good move at all by this Utica defense who's been somewhat in control of the game.

That was an incredibly heads up play by the defender to pick up on it before the ball moved to the ground.  Unfortunately, a 3rd sack, a bad punt and then ANOTHER unsportsmanlike penalty means Utica doesn't pay for it.

Second interception for the day for IC.  Wolfgang is forced to heave it up in the face of a massive rush and Utica is able take it cleanly.  Not a smart move though to take it out of the end zone. leaving Utica stuck pretty deep in their own territory to start.  No score with 6:30 to go in the first half.

Ithaca's offense is just plain not showing up today: 1 for 8 on Third Downs, averaging less than 3 yards per play, 2 interceptions and 4 sacks.  As if that wasn't enough, kicking into the wind, Ithaca had two punts go for 11 and 4 yards respectively.  Honestly, if it wasn't for that one run by Tristan Brown, this entire half saw the offense do nothing.  They will need a big turnaround here in the second half and I don't think they have it in them.

Looking at the stats, what stands out in the comeback is how quickly the Ithaca offense has responded here.  160 yards in 3 TD drives, but all 3 drives were in under 5 minutes.  Great job adjusting here and they are getting fast scores thanks to it.

Honestly, on the balance of the game, I can't really be mad.  If you need to comeback from 24 down to post a win, you leave yourself open to not getting it.  Credit to Utica, they earned this one.  Just hard to believe after all of that, it was the Ithaca D who just let that fade pass happen.

Every year that Ithaca has a great Defense, it is the shorter defensive backs who end up getting beat the most.  That seems to be the constant for Ithaca defenses.

Cortland lives on the ledge once more ......48-45 OT

Hartwick twice overcomes 14 point deficits, the second 35-21 early in the third quarter. Wick FG provides OT lead. Corts' S. Ferreira 11 yd. TD pitch to J. Smith on third down wins it. Cortland secondary again picked apart --- J. Garcia 29x51 for 440 of team's 496 yards, and 5 TDs. But his two INTs lead to pair of second quarter RDragon TDs. Ferreira 23x35, no INT and 4 TDs for 262 yards. Cortland with 479 offensive yards

AND hosts saved by the bell when Hawks on the march inside the 15 to conclude regulation ....

The Wick QB was a stud in HS. He was Jon Babin's HS QB. Great combo on the field. The next few weeks scare me with Buff State, BPort, Alfred ,and Morrisville on the slate. All solid offenses while we have a non existent defense in the pass game.

Brockport goes 4 and out in OT and Utica sets up Woodburn again to win it with 35 yarder for the win. Dude has got to be the Special teams POY already...and has ice in his veins. Kicks 5 FGs overall..death to Brockport by a 1,000 cuts.

Yeah it's kind of insane to see a guy with 16 FGs. There's no way he doesn't win it, IMO, unless something crazy happens. I'm almost wondering if he's *too* good for Utica's purposes. The Pioneers have scored just 11 TDs in 31 RZ trips, and I wonder if at times they get a little to conservative because they don't want to risk the three points. Because that is a truly dreadful percentage that good offensive teams don't tend to put up

Your right about that, the announcers are constantly making mistakes on players.  A previous game, they were announcing the starting lineup and announced one player with his uniform number from last year, while he's running out onto the field with a different number, (which was correct on the posted roster and the number he's been wearing all season).

Morrisville opens scoring vs. Cortland with 83 yard fumble return TD by T. Caldwell and has added THREE  scores for 28-0 lead as halftime approaches. Hungry Mville ......C. Benedetto 13x21, 1 TD passing. A. Mello with a trick play passing TD. RDragons rather dreadful, and judging from SJF drubbing of Ithaca ..........IC and Cortlands looking ahead!!

Fisher is up 25-0 in the 2nd quarter against Ithaca. 

Fisher's offense is performing at a decent level but Ithaca's offense has been horrendous.  If they don't turn it around it'll get really ugly.

Fisher uses a shotgun wishbone formation in the redzone to go up 34-0 in the 3rd...I like that look.  They did miss their second XP of the day though. 
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: boobyhasgameyo on October 31, 2015, 02:38:03 PM
To give an idea of how inept Ithaca's offense has been thus far - they've only had 1 play in Fisher territory so far.  Nearly 3 quarters into the game.

Post by: jdex on October 31, 2015, 03:00:39 PM
End of three: Morrisville 35, Cortland 21. Corts score final two TDs of the period to close the gap. CSt 1x8 in third down efficiency, Mville 6x10. Dragon S. Ferriera sacked five times, Mville's C. Benedetto none

Cortland can't seem to get out of its own way .........defense holds on first possession of the final period. Punt fumbled away ....Mville ball on Corts' 38  ....

Several turnovers for the Golden Eagles Today. The score didn't change in the second half. Alfred wins 35-13 and is still in fairly good position. Brockport and Ithaca fall out of contention today.

Morrisville appears to put away Cortland with 42-21 lead with just under seven minutes left. But RDragons score quickly on pass, then recover onsides kick and move to Mville 17 .....Turn the ball over on downs with a bit over four minutes left. Morrisville 42, Cortland 28 at the moment

Add Buff State vs 'Wick to a topsy turvy day. Hartwick up at half 17-10, thanks to a fg, 19 yd td and 95 yd pick 6! I missed most of 1st half due to a Buff State vs. Hilbert hoops crimmage, but I'm glued in now. Very good video too!

Bengals hosting Ithaca. Early game of the day at the University of Buffalo (Buff States big SUNY brother). Game actually started at 11:50.  55 degrees and cloudy with the Bengals stopping Ithaca on their first drive and then throwing an interception on their first offensive drive at the goal line. Ithacas ball in its own 22!
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: Bengalsrule on November 07, 2015, 01:15:31 PM
Bombers score with 4 seconds left in half. Up 3-0.  I would say that this has been a defensive battle however penalties have ruled the day ( for my Bengals). An 80 yd Stewart td called back for holding on plus at least 2 other first downs.   Bengals benched E8 interception leader Rey Jordan at start of game for soph Tiquan Simpkins. Offense just can't seem to put together a sustained drive.


Teams are coming out for 2nd half. Gonna try stay for another quarter. Gotta go cheer on our Bengal women's soccer team as they host the SUNYAC women's soccer championship at 1 (at home)!

Go Bengals ( and Lady Bengals)!!!!

I was just about to sing the praises of Fisher's secondary compared to how they started out the year.  But as I was about to say it they gave up a touchdown on 4th and 18...horrendous coverage on an albeit broken play.  But Hartwick's QB just threw up a ball that floated in the air forever and yet they still came up with it in the endzone. 

Game tied at 7 about midway through the 1st quarter. 
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: boobyhasgameyo on November 07, 2015, 01:27:11 PM
And then Fisher has about a 55 yard TD run on the very next offensive play. 

14-7 Fisher.  About 10 seconds later in the 1st than my previous post. 
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: boobyhasgameyo on November 07, 2015, 01:45:50 PM
Interesting drive for Hartwick.  Fisher defense forces a 3 and out but muffs the punt so Hartwick gets it back.  Fisher then forces another 4th down and then this time Hartwick faked the punt on 4th down and succeeded.  All of this eventually led to a Hartwick touchdown. 

14-14 with a minute and 20 seconds left in the 1st quarter.

Also, Hartwick has some real chirpy players.  #12 in particular is talking sh$t after nearly every play, thumping his chest, etc.  He's being "that guy"

Bengals up 7-3. Bombers recover fumble in Buff State 22. 5:43 left in game. Here's to hoping my boys can hold on...and our women's soccer team catch Oneonta ( down 1-0 second half). 4th down and the Bengals hold on. 1st down at their own 17 5:34 left in game. Maddie Weslowski catches a 40 yarder for Bengals. Time for Dale Stewart ( younger brother of Green Bay Packers James Starks) to grind out the clock!

Ithaca has a 1st and goal from the Buff State 7 yard line and ends up losing yardage on 3rd down. They go for it on 4th down but the pass is incomplete and the Bengals take over on downs. On Buff State's first play they fumble the ball and Ithaca recovers. Once again the Bombers have the ball deep in Bengal territory as they start from the Buffalo State 22 yard line but go 4 and out for the 2nd time in 5 minutes.

Fisher just keeps shooting themselves in the foot, allowing Hartwick drives to continue.  Muffed punt, fake punt, personal fouls on 3rd and long twice.  All directly contributing to eventual Hartwick scores.

The Hartwick feed has turned to complete crap.  It comes back in just long enough for me to see that the score has changed.  It's turning into a Big 12 game right now.  34-31 Fisher midway through the 3rd quarter.  Fisher missed an XP...that might come back to haunt them.

That was fantastic.  Hartwick goes for it on another 4th down and converts.  Number 12 who has been a jerk the whole time was running down the field taunting as it was happening.  Except the Hartwick player with the ball got blown up and fumbled it.  Fisher recovers.

4th and 27 and Hartwick goes for it.  They fail to convert but a roughing the passer penalty is called on Fisher.  Again absolutely killlllling themselves with extending Hartwick drives.  They have played so much better than Hartwick today but this game is kept close because of untimely penalties and mistakes. 

I will say though, Fisher fan aside, that QB sold the roughing call big time.  It wasn't much and he was on the ground embellishing.  You just knew he was fine and would get right back up once the call was made, and it happened.  But whatever - good for him for trying. 

Fisher 41
Hartwick 34

6:55 left in the 4th

Brockport intercepts with 46 seconds left. Golden eagles run it out and win 49-42. Morrisville had lost any chance to get in a 6 way tie with the Alfred and Fisher (presumably) wins, but this hands them the 4th conference lost.

I don't think the Refs knew what to do...

Seriously a Hartwick player #42 threw a haymaker and the refs were like "eh"...

Then a player dives at Naton's knee on his way up from taking a knee and they did nothing...

Coach Carr from Hartwick is a real POS to let that go on...

It probably took 5 minutes to run the last 30 seconds.  They just kept calling offsides, delay of games, etc. when the teams are clearly at a boiling point.  For God sake they were calling offsides because the Hartwick players were literally leaping over the line prematurely trying to tackle the QB before he kneeled down.  Just run the damn clock and put an end to it.  Then on the very last play, after Fisher takes a knee and stands back up, a Hartwick player tries to go low and take out our QB at the knees. 

The refs let it get out of hand from the start of the game.  #12 was taunting throughout, the Hartwick team in general was taunting, and then Fisher started retaliating.  The refs did nothing to stop any of it.

As Fisher walked towards the opposite endzone of the field entrance to let Hartwick go first. SEVERAL Hartwick players were walking after them and jawing with them...

It was a really pathetic scene by everyone involved with Hartwick.  Not to mention last week vs Buffalo St you had several racial slurs being thrown at Buffalo St players by the Hartwick side of the field...

Hartwick has become the misfit of the league. Although they kind of were anyway even before all the changes.

Sad but true. 2 defensive players (earlier this week) and a parent (at todays game vs Ithaca) shared the same sad story. To quote  1 defensive starter with regards to the racial slurs... "damn it was the players and fans alike" with the racial taunts. Must be something in the water out there. Reminds me of a similar incident 5 years ago while on the bench of the Buffalo State Basketball Men's team, while playing at Oneonta (less than a mile away from Hartwick). 1 Oneonta tudent in particular had shouted out a couple of racial taunts . At first a couple of coaches thought that we misunderstood the kid. He made it clear soon afterwards what he was saying, as if he was being encouraged by the students around him. I actually went to PA announcer to share our concerns. He made an announcement and he also had someone go speak to the student (I'm assuming the kid was a student). 2 of our players wanted to go deal directly with the Oneonta student. Fortunatly Coach Ansari weighed in on the Bengal players and that stopped any further conversation. Before every SUNYAC basketball game now, there is a code of conduct statement read by either the PA announcer or a player from the home team. It specifically talks about racial taunts and other derogatory acts that will result in expulsion from that arena. That has been going on for at least 2 years now.

  To be honest nothing really surprises the Buffalo State student athletes/fans/coaching staff when we are on the road, because Buffalo State athletic teams are usually very diverse. However last week at Hartwick did catch the attention of at least 2 Bengal cornerbacks,  in particular, when playing on the Hartwick side of the field. I woud not attempt to paint all fof Hartwick with the same brush nor would I have wanted to painted the entire Oneonta student body/fan base with a similar brush 5 years ago!

  Too be honest I realy feel sorry for the 20 plus minority players on Hartwicks football team who have to endure that kind of bulls--t from their own fans/players. Trust me..those kids hear that crap too!! That coupled with the fact that in 2105 our children (thats what these players are to many of us...our children) are subjected to bulls--t from fellow students but more importantly adults who, when struggling for words to berate their opponent, just blurt out whatever comes into their minds. I'm glad none of our kids, nor our fans, retaliated last week at Hartwick! It could have gotten ugly!

Go BENGALS

I don't have the slightest clue what's going on with Ithaca's offense. Though from the looks of the game, their top three receivers all did not play. Doesn't help the situation. But the offense is just putrid. Really sad way to end a season that started with so much promise. Seriously, remember when the Bombers were 3-0, and had wins over Alfred and Hobart.

Sorry to to Fisher-Alfred winner, but if you think Ithaca's going to beat Cortland next week, you're nuts. Enjoy the ECACs. Let us know if the hotel is nice

Yeah I don't think Fisher will win next week and I definitely don't think Ithaca will win.  But stranger things have happened.  It's just cool that Fisher was able to rally enough this season to even put themselves in a position to still have a chance the last week of the season.

No. They miss a short FG.  Like I've complained about before, when that fullback comes in on 2nd and long, the opponents linebackers fly up real quick and stuff them.  When there is no fullback and they run that deep zone, the linebackers stay at depth and IC has a better job running.  Then on 3rd and long/goal, predictable passing formation, straight dropback and no one open.  They need more misdirection on every play.

Cortland looked pretty good on that one before stalling. So both offenses moved it on their first drives. Not having paid close attention, is Ithaca's kicking game an issue? It seems like kicking is stunningly bad at the D3 level.

I hope Ithaca is setting something up.  Even the announcers have caught on that they run the ball on every first down.  Then a QB draw gets stuffed that looked horrible.  Predictable offense is what it comes down to.

Fisher takes the lead 20-7 in the 3rd. Alfred's pool C slipping away. If Salisbury loses, Wesley would get an A, and would anyone in the east get a C? Interesting.

Buffalo State defeats Brockport State 35-28 as Brockport's last pass attempt does not hit to tie the game. Buffalo state a respectable 7-3 on the season. Another middling 5-5 for Brockport.

Alfred misses a Field goal, because can anyone kick in D3? Still 20-7 early in the 4th quarter. Had 1st and goal from the 9. Time slipping away for AU.

This was probably the best 1st round win we have had in a long while.  Our last opening round games were with New England teams (Framingham St., Endicott, and Plymouth St.)  which I felt were locks.  Salisbury definitely brought more name brand recognition to Chugger!

Glad I was able to watch the dominating win!  Can't believe it's been 18 years since the  only playoff game I was directly associated with. We beat TCNJ in the regular season, only to fall to them in the first round. 

Good luck next week Dragons!

RPI-TV does an outstanding job covering the Engineers! Pep wishes he was there with the band, but the last time the band traveled there, the band was "held hostage" by a security guy who thought that since the game was over, all he had to do was lock the gates and leave....before those inside had departed! But seriously, the coverage makes it seem like Pep is right there! In fact, Pep saw Tyler Johnson toss the ball to the referee and hit him in the head.....then rushed over to apologize. Kudos to RPI-TV!

On Saxon Warriors!

Good point and agree on the option front - was hoping new D-Coordinator would have changed that. 

Utica may replace Fisher in the Top 25 at this point --  Super ugly win,  D-Line sucks.

I think Fisher will be fine and I doubt they will drop out of the top 25 after winning by a couple of touchdowns.  They were clearly the better team the entire game.  Cleanup some of the avoidable plays like the wild snap on the punt attempt which directly led to Springfield's 3rd score and we'll be all good. 

Kind of painting a doomsday scenario that doesn't need to be painted.  I think Cortland is going to have their hands full next week.

That's a tough one since so many variables nationally will come into play.  But those aside my guy instinct would be if Fisher beats Cortland you might see an actual switch-a-roo in the poll where they swap spots.  If Cortland beats Fisher in a close one then I don't think Fisher drops completely out but they would be teetering on the edge.  Right on the 25 spot.  If Fisher smashes Cortland then perhaps they would move to the 25ish spot. 

These are my predictions assuming all of the other games across the nation aren't crazy this weekend.  I feel pretty good about it.

The first team out of the rankings has 42 points. Cortland currently has 249. Fisher has 99. Fisher would probably be in danger of dropping out of the Top 25. Cortland would have to get absolutely pounded, I would think, for voters to take away 200+ points for them losing to a top 25 team.

I like Cortland in a shootout, 41-32

With Cortland ranked 15 and SJF 21, assuming a close score, will the pollsters drop the loser out of the top 25  ???

The first team out of the rankings has 42 points. Cortland currently has 249. Fisher has 99. Fisher would probably be in danger of dropping out of the Top 25. Cortland would have to get absolutely pounded, I would think, for voters to take away 200+ points for them losing to a top 25 team.

I like Cortland in a shootout, 41-32

Yuppers, dlip thinks this is going to be one entertaining game...(https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/mlVk1L9SRW6FiSltHQCF)

Perfect use of dumb and dumber, dlip.  Made me laugh.  +k! 

I officially predict Fisher wins by two scores.

So let me get this straight...

Fisher forces an incomplete pass on 3rd and 4 on the 11 yard line...

Holding on Cortland though...

Instead of declining the penalty, fisher accepts it and gives them another down...

Are you freaking kidding me...

Horrible, horrible decision as Cortland picks up a 1st down on the subsequent 3rd down play...

Fisher D might be the worst second to '91


Cortland drove right down the field, running lanes wide open

I said it last week -- the D-Line for SJF is terrible, they are getting pushed around.  The only time they stop the run is with a blitzing backer


Side note, love my Cardinals, but that was a cheap shot on the Cortland QB that took him out to sidelines

RDragons with eight penalties, many of killer variety. Fisher with three flags .....

Post by: middlerelief on September 17, 2016, 03:58:52 PM
A win is a win, but man it was ugly.  Fisher has no killer instinct

And to Boobey -- if you watched the 4th QTR then you watched what I've saying since week 1 -- the Fisher D is terrible.  And if a team can run the ball they will clobber Fisher.

Cortland figured that out late in the game and when trailing only ran the 9 plays in a row.  The only thing that saved Fisher's but is a dropped ball by Cortland WR that went into hands of secondary of SJF.

Fisher O is really really good -- Fisher D absolutely Blows.

Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: boobyhasgameyo on September 17, 2016, 04:09:22 PM
I still think the defense was fine.  I see how you could think that given the scoring drive in the 4th quarter but essentially they had to contend with 3 different quarterbacks today...I would bet the mortgage they didn't game plan for that.  Especially when Cortland essentially switched offenses completely in the middle of the second half to an option style. 

They're giving up on average 18.3 points per game.  If you take away the field goal today that resulted from the fumbled punt return on our 11 yard line as well as the touchdown last week because of the botched snap also on a punt that left the ball on our 3 yard line...then the defense is giving up around 15 points per game. 

How is that all time bad?

He was replaced last year, but for a senior. Adam Fron is a junior, so you'd have to think Ithaca's got to just be saying "We can't get worse this season, best case, we get a jump start. Worst case, we might as well see what we have for next year."

I like to come by to promote my boys. On a even cooler note, there was a football reunion dinner last night at Delmonicos, and I heard that nearly 70 former players from the past 15 years and guys that played when there was a club team 50 years ago were there.

This is the first game of the year in which I will agree with you.  Still don't think they are historically bad but they are getting killed today.  Still not over that dumb interference penalty on 4th and 29.  Nice going there. 

Also agree with Upstate on Fisher not going for it on their last possession of the half.  Vos has always been frustratingly conservative.

This is what you get when you hire your D-Coordinator from U of R

The defense is playing as if it is U o R kids.

There is no tackling ability, and the D-line stands up and gets pushed back into the line backers. 

At one stretch Brockport ran 9 out of 11 offensive plays - gained rushing yards on everyone of them.

Boobes - Both Springfield and Cortland ran at will -- I mentioned in everyone of those, if they came across an opponent that can watch game film they'll realize they can run the ball as much as they want. 

Now that's what is happening -- what a waste of a good O, to pair them up with such a bad D Squad.

Really.... Faggiano's defense with Steve Stepnick got ripped like this?  WRONG

Fisher's D has always played well - except this year.  And the only reason I'm "Grinding it" - is because it was soooo obvious.  I wear Cardinal Colored glasses like anyone else, -- this D is as bad as it gets.

Fox's defenses were ripped just as bad as these guys were...

And Faggiano's before him...

You clearly have an axe to grind, so grind away...

Really.... Faggiano's defense with Steve Stepnick got ripped like this?  WRONG

Fisher's D has always played well - except this year.  And the only reason I'm "Grinding it" - is because it was soooo obvious.  I wear Cardinal Colored glasses like anyone else, -- this D is as bad as it gets.

Being a former player/coach there I figured you wouldn't be such a dick when **** starts going sideways...

BUUUUUT...

I've been wrong before...

Defense performed much better in the second half.  Maybe this game will serve as a turning point for them this season. 

Offense could not be stopped in the second half.  I think that was a mix of Fisher's offense being potent and Brockport's poor pass coverage. 

Oh, and it would have been really nice to have Fusco this game.

Sorry I jinxed Brockport but they did get Alfreded. Up 28-7 and still lose. Fisher..like Hobart showed why they are elite programs. Brockport is good at giving the ole college try, but terrible at closing out big games. Until they get their defense ever fixed, this trend will forever continue.

You are high off your ass

Their D did not stop anything, inexplicably B'Port threw the ball in the 2H the first few drives, even the announcers were like this is odd -- when the Fisher needed a stop in say ... I don't know the 4th qtr  -- they didn't do it.   PERIOD   They are the worst, the very worst at tackling and against the run in the history of college football....

Ok that was a bit dramatic but you get the point  ... I want my Karma back
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: boobyhasgameyo on September 24, 2016, 09:34:10 PM
Nah I'm not high off my ass.  Fisher gave up touchdowns on every single drive in the first half with the exception of the very last one when time ran out. 

Second half drives by Brockport resulted in punt, punt, punt, FG and then the lone touchdown, then the final drive which resulted in nothing. 

Andrews had 107 yards rushing in the first half on 19 carries and then was held to 24 yards on 12 carries in the second half. 

The fact you can't see that is an improvement speaks to how jaded you are.

And not coincidentally you've sounded like an annoying, broken record since the first series of the season.  The defense is better than last year's unit, you don't have to go back that far.  Look at the statistics.  You know...the actual truth as evidenced by facts and not just what you feel.  You sound like a hyperbolic idiot. 

Anyways - 4 sacks, 3 interceptions, 7 second half points given up and 3 huge defensive stops in the second half.  Buffalo State ran 89 plays to Fisher's 52.  A lot of that can be attributed to a couple of dramatically quick possessions by Fisher's offense today.  Like the 1 play 70+ yard touchdown to start the game, the 1 play fumble by Fiutko, etc.  Didn't give the defense a ton of time to rest.

How about that Bombers' offense?

What I liked the most was that they responded. After Utica scored to make it 16-14, I thought we were looking at a 17-16 loss. But Ithaca actually made the plays. Faced with a 1st and 20, they pick it up, and get it into the end zone. Then, at 23-14, they get the ball, and pick up a 1st down to run out the clock. Credit where credit is due. I've criticized the offense when it's been bad, but this was a solid effort and a deserved win.

We'll see you on the team of the week, Dan Loizos...20 tackles, 2.5 TFL, 1.5 Sacks, FF

Cortland hangs 50 and nearly 600 yards on Hartwick and wins 50-47. Man, it's unreal that Hartwick can't ever field an even semi-competent defense. They generated nearly 700 yards of offense, and lost at home

Seems like Bengals more in control with 290-153 yard advantage. RDragons strike with 1:22 left in the second quarter on long 43-yd TD throw from D. Walker to J. Smith. 

BS qb K. Hoppy 17x29, 221 yds. Buffs miss three opportunities ... Hoppy misfire to end zone and wide open receiver, and two field goals, one blocked and the other on mishandled snap

Post by: Bombers798891 on October 08, 2016, 04:22:47 PM
That's the problem with middlerelief's schtick. It's fine if you want to say "The defense isn't where it needs to be in order for Fisher to be a threat in the East." It's allowing about 24 pts and 390 yards a game, so it's not exactly elite.

But the idea that they're the worst defense in the conference when Hartwick is giving up 50 in back to back weeks, once to a team that hadn't scored more than 23 points in nearly a season, it's pretty obvious you have an agenda, which makes it hard to take you seriously.

Ithaca wins 50-27, but it's a misleading score, with misleading stats. Ithaca leads 43-13 with 11:18 to go, before the Wick puts up 230 yards on their last three drives, with Reed getting two TDs. The game turned when, down 20-13 Pine fumbled a snap, leading to a safety. The ensuing kickoff was returned to the 40, Ithaca scored easily in 5 plays, and the rout was on.

Hartwick's 3rd quarter drives generated zero first downs, -23 yards, and got the Bombers two points

Brockport wins 35-28. Utica choked twice inside the Brockport 10 . 2 great chances to tie the game up.  Turned it over both times. A fumbled snap that rolled all the way to the 45 and a 100 yard pick 6. They kept it close but were in chase mode rest of the way. Good win for Brockport. Best win since Ithaca last season. Finally beat a team ahead of them in the standings. Andrews rushed for almost 240 yards. Utica's defense couldn't stop the run against a bigger Brockport team. Uticas RB Burnett averaged less than 4 yards a carry.

Nearing the end of the first quarter and the game is still 0-0 between Fisher and Utica.

But the commentator has scored about 15 blunders.  Announcing incorrect down and distances, player names, saying Fisher had a 3 and out when it wasn't the case, etc.  He's trying though folks! 
Title: Re: Empire 8 in-game updates
Post by: boobyhasgameyo on October 15, 2016, 01:46:05 PM
Well in a bit of an upside down day it's still 0-0 in the 2nd.  Fisher's offense is struggling mightily but the defense has made big plays so far.

The commentator's lack of knowledge is starting to bother me.  It was 4th and about 18 for Utica and they punted...a bogus roughing the kicker call was made, although the punt still landed at the Fisher 1 yard line.  The commentator was saying how Utica will likely decline the penalty because the punt was so good. 

Riiiiiiight.  Yeah, they'll forsake the penalty yardage and automatic first down in Fisher territory because the punt was good.

There was a lot of talk this week about some game well before I was born between Hobart and Alfred.  Perhaps jdex had lingering thoughts of that game in his mind. 

Naton is back at QB this week by the way but to say he is struggling is a bit of an understatement.  Just threw his second or third interception (I think second) but the last one was in Utica's endzone on a terrible throw.  He was scrambling and extending the play, trying to make something happen, but some throws just aren't worth the risk and that one qualified. 

Fisher is down 9-0 at the half.  I believe they receive the ball to start the second half.

Well, this game is about to get very ugly. 

Utica scores to go up 23-6 and then on the ensuing kickoff Fisher fumbles it and Utica recovers deep in Fisher territory. 

The good news is that it's only one game.  Fisher still controls their E8 destiny.  But if they continue to play the way they have today then they won't win another game.

Cortland was a completely different team with Schneider at the helm. Felt like the Red Dragons could score at will in the second half and the result felt very much in doubt until those two long 3rd/4th down conversions with a Cortland fumble in between. If Cortland could have recovered one or two of their 4 onside kick attempts today, the final may have been reversed. I think Cortland has found its signal caller for the remainder of the season.

Hartwick comes right back and connects with a long pass to reed inside Buff st 15.

Wick punches it in a few plays layer and EP is good to make it 17-13.

A Wick DB gets flagged twice for a personal foul and a taunting in a matter of 30 seconds...

Buffalo has the ball at the 15 without ever taking a snap on offense...

On 2nd and 10 the ball gets knocked out of the hands of hoppy and into the hands of a Wick player who takes it 80 yards for the td...

Cortland 31, Morrisville 7 at intermission

RDragon soph qb B. Segala 17 of 22 for 215 yds. passing and three TDs, the last late in the half a short pitch to J. Mannix

Corts post 31 straight points after Mustangs take opening possession for TD. Momentum swings when M'vill driving on next series and has FG blocked. Not long after M'ville fumbles kickoff

Morrisville actually with 274-257 yard edge!!

Watch the Fisher and Ithaca game on tv - the "interception" that directly led to Ithaca's lone touchdown in the first half hit the turf.  I would be upset buuuuuut it's a little poetic justice coming a decade or so later.

Brockport was driving inside the 30 on the opening drive of 2nd half, then imploded. Wasted 2 timeouts, an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty, and a holding penalty and it was 3rd and a mile with no hope. They punt.

That 3rd and 1 play epitomizes everything that has been wrong with Ithaca's offense for the past five/six seasons.

They don't have the ability to win those 1-on-1 battles along the line against quality teams, and they have absolutely zero play-calling creativity or aggressiveness. Fisher blowing that thing up was something my daughter could see a mile away.

I have nothing but respect for the job Mike Welch has done during his career, but the fact that, with two and a half games left in his career, he punted on 4th-and-4 at his opponents' 40 in a 13-10 game...come on. If there was ever a time to just say "**** it" and be aggressive, that was it.

Fisher was clearly the better team, and it was only a matter of time before it turned bad, but Ithaca could have made them work for it.

Cortland ends its losing ways with 45-20 spanking of visitor Morrisville. RDragon soph qb B. Segala completes 28 of 39 passes for 322 yards and four TDs in first start. J. Mannix snags 10 throws for 100 yds and two TDs and sets career reception mark with 171. Cortland with 441 yards, Mustangs 407. J. Smith, J. Akins also catch TD tosses. D. Walker back from concussion and sees limited qb duty for CSt.

Cortland 4-5, idle next week and hosts Ithaca in finale

These refs are pure garbage.  They are screwing up simple things like knowing what down it is and they are blowing some big calls.  On Hartwick's second touchdown their receiver literally shoved our db.  It was so blatant...but cool in the minds of the officals apparently.

Fisher - 42
Hartwick - 20

P.S. Hartwick's defense isn't very good.

I am glad Fisher was prepared today, and got a win, but the defense does continue to be a concern. I just can't see this D holding up against AU or (god willing) a playoff team. I know Hartwick has a good offense, and the second half was weird all around, but I feel like they don't tackle very well, and they bend a bit too much.

Hard to argue with 8-1, but it is still a concern for me. One more ugly win and I will never say a bad word about this team again, but I have concerns with the new D coordinator in general/this Defensive group overall.

AU adds a field goal and stretches the lead to 17-7. Fisher needs to get something figured out on Defense. The offense has moved the ball, but needs to get better field position to get back into the game. A lot going AU's way right now.

The effort from Hobart was impressive. 

This is not the usual Purple Raider team - honestly very much like Hopkins and/or AU's chances in the "East" Bracket.

Not a bad showing so far in the ECACs by the E8.    SJF/Frostburgh the match up of the Pool C snubs   hopefully a good game. 


*Side note -- anyone have a link to a video feed for the game I don't see one on D3's scoreboard.

The Fisher field goal unit is a...not good. 3 missed field goals this half and some shaky PATs. Fisher gets the ball first to start the half, down 16-14. I know W&J is a good team, but Fisher has to be kicking themselves about 3 trips into the red zone that yielded 0 points in the first half.

Brockport's win over Hobart was much more impressive than Del Val's win over Wesley.  Right now I would have to have Brockport as the top team in the East.  Will have to check everything out, but when the top 2 teams in the east lose, throw the whole thing out and start over.  Maybe some teams were over-rated to start with.  Was not impressed by Hobart at all on either side of the ball.  Very impressed by Brockport on offense.  They will be tough to deal with if they stay healthy.

AU falls behind 14-0 at Brockport, but Gavidia breaks a short pass for 50+ yard gain, Fuentes finishes it to pull to within 14-7.
AU defense stops Brockport and, after an illegal procedure on the punt, the snap for the second punt attempt goes over the Brockport punter and AU tackles the punter just inside the red zone. Brockport stops AU but after a third down sack, called for unsportsmanlike and AU finishes with a chip shot field goal.

Brockport 14, AU 10 at the half at Boozer Field.

Don't be such a little baby.  You play to the whistle, play to the end of the game.  To do anything other than that, would be an insult to the opponent.

I really try to stay away from this stuff, but this about sums up the week.
I agree that you can run your offnese until the whistle, but seriously a fake field goal when you are up 25, and a pass play with less than a minute left?

It is not an insult to take your foot off the gas when the game is in hand.

Not a great start to the year for the Fisher D. All I heard from coaches and people around the program was how much better the d was going to be this year. W & J marches 87 yards and scores easily on their first possession (after Fisher moved the ball but stalled just pass half field).

Have never been impressed with this D coordinator, and thus start doesn't make me feel much better.

7-0 W&J

Fisher D is just getting picked apart. They have a freshman playing corner against W&J's top WR, with no safety help. Another long touchdown pass (on 3ed and 10) and the score is 23-0.

Ugly on both sides of the ball for Fisher.

Bport back to their usual Offensive performance. I thought the Saints D was better. So was Ithaca that good to play close , or did Joey G have an off game? It is clear that the Hobart defense is what it is and extremely vulnerable to outstanding QBs/WRs based on Bauserman, etal performance. Although, it looks like Hofman is developing nicely. Good luck to Bport . I am still on the bandwagon ever since week one last year.

Brockports 3rd string RB ran roughshod over the starting Fisher D...

Fisher can't get the lineman into their program like they used to...

Defense showed up for a while but offense was horrid as soon as Michels got KOd...

Defensive front 7 just catches RBs, there's no attack or sense of urgency by the defense. The coaching differences between the two D coordinators was almost comical...

Gotta worry about the messages becoming stale from the coaches, 2-11 the past two years...

Good news is they won't lose 10 games this year...

That's how I approached it, and will approach it again the same way next week. I was also criticized by this Saxon fan for saying the Alfred / Morrisvile game would be close. And it was.

D3viewer,
I am dismayed and it is unfortunate that you have taken my comments as criticism.  No such thing was intended.  I was only curious to know the basis of your point of view, viewer.  As promised I kept my lips sealed  :-X after the Morrisville game indicating that I was indeed surprised.  As far as Hartwick goes I just did a little digging which was substantiated today by  437-149 yds total.  No need to be concerned about eating words or such. Again, no harm intended.

Any way to track this game progress outside of Stretch? I see occasional updates via Twitter, but can't get Live Stats or Video

Brockport up 21-16 at end of 3rd. They have the ball, but are ripe for the taking if Cortland can summon the ability.

Germinerio fumbles the ball away. Cortland has a chance to drive and take the lead.

Tough pill to swallow! So close yet,  so far. Congrats to Bport for doing a great job with their backs to the wall at the end. An upset would have been sweet, but onto Cortaca.

Brockport up on Fram St 7-0 after 1 Q. Fram forced a Brockport turnover on downs on the Bport + 25. Brockport pick 6 brought back due to defensive PI

Fram hanging tough for now. Brockport gives Rams a taste of their own medicine, scoring a TD on a reverse throwback screen. Rams had beat the Bport blitz for a big play with the same play earlier.  Fram has no kicking game I guess. Forced to go for it on a 4th and 8 inside the Bport red zone, and failed on the attempt. I gues they said they don't kick FG's I guess all season.
Bport up 14-0.

Brockport up 24-0 at half. Fram starting RB ejected from game for striking a Brockport player. Chippiness abounds.

Props to Alfred for hanging tough with Salisbury. Looks like it's 7-7 in the middle of the 3rd Q.

Looks like sunny yet chilly day in Salisbury. Nice high, wide view on their broadcast. Already saw SU make multiple mistakes on offense, false start, etc. 7-7 at start of 4th Q. Sal with ball

AU out Salisburys Salisbury to win on the road 14-7. A stouter run game and defense than the Gulls.  Nice way to end the season, and make for a fun ride home to Alfred.

Bport holds on to win 40-27. Fram St certainly represented themselves well and kept pressure on Brockport the whole game. On to the 2nd round. An interesting next round setting up, Brockport vs RPI for the NY State Championship and JHU vs Frostburg for the Maryland State Championship. Hopefully academics will not be considered.

Start of 4th, Brockport up 14-0 thanks to two Pick 6s.

Defense looks stout, but a second straight no show by the offense. QBs are 8-for-18 for 95 yards and two picks.

With Cortland rolling, and Alfred up on George Fox at the half, I'm more and more confident that they will go 1-2 in the E8.
