So, it's Cortaca week! Will the Red Dragon seniors graduate with a win, or will the Bombers retain the Jug? What are we thinking?
I havent seen Cortland play so I have nothing to go by but record.
If IC shows up with a performance like AU or Fisher, the game is over before it starts.
If IC brings a semblence of a running game and a strong defensive plan, I like IC.
I like IC in this one.
It's the jug folks, records and experience go OUT THE WINDOW.... unless IC has the advantage ;D.
I almost forgot it's Cortaca week! Exciting stuff.
Last time Cortland won? 2006.
Last time Cortland won at the Chugger II? 2006.
Let's keep the streaks alive folks! Empty the stadium of the Jr. Jets by halftime...

Agree that records go out the window. While I've not seen IC play, from what I've read, if they show up, which as Max points out, they will as it's Cortaca, it should be a great game. Feels like it's gonna be a defensive battle. Long range forecast looks like cloudy but no rain/sleet or snow so thats a win already!
Everything points to a close game. Cortland hasn't beaten Ithaca by more than eight points since 1996, but Ithaca lacks the firepower to score much on a nasty Cortland defense. This feels like a 17-10 game.
(Cortland Grads: Find someone to help you take your shoes off so you can count to 17 if you're confused)
Here's my questions:
1) What to make of the Cortland offense? The raw numbers look good, but 10 against Montclair, 17 against Rowan and 24 against Kean make me wonder. The QB play looks kinda shaky (54% completion percentage) and your red zone offense is far worse than Ithaca's (82%-64%) which strikes me as odd considering you have a competent running game
2) Is Cortland's D really this good, or are the NJAC offenses just cruddy? A little of both? I mean, 61 points allowed is astounding, but other than Cortland, no-one but Buff State is likely to break 300 points this season and five of the nine may not break 200. The highest scoring non-Cortland team in the NJAC would be 5th in points in the E8. I know Montclair and Rowan are really good defensively, but man, there are some weak offenses over there from what I can see. What's the scuttlebutt?
3) Are my eyes deceiving me or is Cortland's starting QB actually healthy? It's a Cortaca miracle!

Older Cortland grads are screwed on this...but as of 2006 a manadatory freshman class was implemented which goes over the benefits of velcro sneakers...

Cortland's offensive woes, I believe, lie with the offensive line. They have had some key injuries and have had to move some people around.
In the first 5 games Cortland gave up 4 sacks and QB pass completion pct was 60%+. Passer eff. rating was high
In last 4 games Cortland has given up 7 sacks and QB pass completion pct is 47%. Passer eff. rating low.
In that 5th game there was a key injury to the younger Pitcher at RT. Done for season. Strarting RG moved to RT. New RG was hurt...now we have 3rd RG. and we are inexperienced in positions. I think the numbers are telling.
I think we feel good about our QB play overall and if the OL can give him time, he will be a factor. A key to IC's game plan, on the other hand, will be to pressure the QB.
Our strength all year has been our defense and while I have not seen any IC games this year, I will venture that they have not played a defense like this one. They have come up big game after game.
We have to play better on offense. As for red zone offense, I can count at least 3 turnovers. we have to take care of the ball. Our receivers need to be more aggressive
Here is a surprise...I like Cortland in this one....and I'm not going to get drawn into the IC sucks thing....although I do find Velcro quite handy.
We have obvious issues on the offensive line. Autera is breaking a lot of tackles near the line of scrimmage, and Pitcher is under constant pressure when he drops back. If we had the 2006 OL to block for Pitcher and Autera, this would be the best team in Eastern Region. Hopefully some of the younger kids develop, but I think they need to hit the recruiting trail with an emphasis on OL.
Does anyone else think that Pitcher holds the ball a bit too long too? Not saying the line is O line is not an issue, but there have been many times where I thought he needed to make the decision to dump the ball sooner rather than force it in or take the sack. When he's sharp, he's outstanding but it does seem to take him a quarter or two to get in synch with his recievers. As I type this, realizing that I sound like I am not a fan of his but not true. Just a couple of observations. As stated before, I too am happy with the Cortaca miracle of 2010.
For the record, I am not a velcro fan. It's a rip off. (rimshot please!)

Yeah, that's why I asked about the NJAC offenses though. Nothing against Cortland, but when you're holding opponents to 7 points a game and have only given up 10 points twice all season, I have to wonder if week in, week out, you're going up against good offenses. In fact, according to the NCAA, through 10/30 the best offense in the NJAC outside of Cortland was in points scored was 82nd and in terms of yardage, Brockport was tops at 79th. It's accurate to say you're the best defense we've faced, but might we be the best offense you've seen?
Yes, I'm sure good defenses keep the numbers down, especially since you don't go OOC often, but I wonder if the NJAC offenses have given your defense a true test.
Where's CState19..... did they let him out of county jail yet?
Cortland grads might be asking about JQV's whereabouts, but he's on vacation; he was the prosecutor!
This just feels like this is a game where Cortland should win but Ithaca is going to come out and suprise everyone and put up 40

I think he's too quick to leave the pocket sometimes. There were times against Rowan when he should have stepped up in the pocket. He likes to roll and flick passes outside the hashes which really shortens the passing game. He throws on the run too much. The oline injuries may have some impact on his game.

It is a fair question and because of the large conference we only see one OOC team...you. I would also have to ask if anyone plays defense in the E8 or LL. Is your offense that good or do the defenses just suck. And you don't drop as many points on some of them as SJF or Alfred or Springfield.. To be fair, I haven't taken the time, nor will I, to compare Ithaca's numbers to the others agains like opponents but, in general, there are a lot of points scored in your league and it's usually not Ithaca that is scoring 40 or 50...and according to Jonny Labcoat...you have to beat teams by 40 or 50 points to be any good.
So...imagine that...it comes down to whether or not your offense is indeed good enough against our defense and whether our offense can put up any numbers on your defense....go figure. We can't play this game on paper.l

Ithaca is probably more of an NJAC type of team this year (no offense, good defense).
In all seriousness, I think Ithaca's defense is a little better than their offense, but their passing game is basically 80% of their offense and that hurts them.
And I didn't say you had to beat teams by 40 or 50 to be "any good". But if you want to be a national champion, you usually do have to beat teams like that (See Oregon, Mt Union, UWW, Auburn etc)

I think you are correct vis a vis the lack of offense in the NJAC. The D's of the top three are still very good. And I can't speak for Montclair or Cortland, but I think Rowan is putting the right pieces to the offense. Hopefully, they'll confirm that on Saturday against TCNJ.

analyze all you want..knock yourself out. Maybe you can find some connection to some connection to some connection to make you feel good about your chances. Bottom line, it's Cortaca and you can throw all your analysis out the window when its time for kickoff. See you Saturday.

Wow. I guess we should just close down the thread and eliminate discussion. I'm not trying to "make myself feel good" about Ithaca's chances. I don't know much about Cortland so I thought I'd just throw out some questions to discuss. Apparently, that's frowned upon here

Seriously, where did 59 and 77 go? They were actually intelligent posters. This whole board is dead. One season with the worst rushing game in the country and all the IC people jump ship. Jerks.

Wow. I guess we should just close down the thread and eliminate discussion. I'm not trying to "make myself feel good" about Ithaca's chances. I don't know much about Cortland so I thought I'd just throw out some questions to discuss. Apparently, that's frowned upon here
Lack of common opponents is always gonna be a challenge, that's why the game is played as they say. IC has no rushing game to speak of ranked at 278 nationally but they are ranked 37th in Passing. CState is ranked 17th nationally for pass defense and if I remember right like 55th in rushing defense. Then again, the rankings are based on Cstate and IC's performance within different conferences with different strengths and weaknesses which was Bombers point.
I know these are isolated data points but they do point to a great game. Now, back to my research on the origin of the forward pass! Hope I am done by Saturday's game time!

True and also interesting that there are documented plays prior to the rules change where forward passes were made despite being illegal at the time and the plays stood.

How does this velcro stuff work? Are you supposed to lick it first?
Sorry Bombers, cranky morning. I just find that there are too many variables to try to compare. We do have a related opponent. Lycoming beat you...Rowan beat Lycoming....Rowan beat us. We will say that we shouldn't have lost to Rowan. You probably shouldn't have lost to Lycoming. Rowan will say they are playing much better now than when they played Lycoming. I don't know what Lycoming would say. So did we lose to the better Rowan? I will say that we stunk in the second half of that game. So if a bad Rowan beat Lycoming and Lycoming beat you, would Rowan beat you? Would we beat Lycoming? What does this mean? Damned if I know.
I will say this...our rush defense is solid and your rush offense isn't. The question will be whether, or not, our pass defense is up to the task. And then, of course, can we score points with our Jekyl and Hyde offense.

How did you guys keep Pitcher healthy? Did he have to use safety scissors and non-toxic crayons in class? I'm excited to face a Cortland QB that's started this year! Makes me harken back to the Tutweiller (or however you spelled it) era
As for the velco, if it's too hard, try using glue. But man, throw some insults back for crying out loud! Tuition prices, hippies, there's no end to the possibilities

Certainly odd. I am currently working on a way to blame IC's loss to Alfred on Nancy Pelosi. That seems to be the easiest way to get yourself on TV.

I was illustrating a point to KS, but we don't really have to put "joke" before every joke just because Cortland grads are reading this, right?

Good point. Ithaca students pay 5x as much for the same crappy weather.
So maybe it's time to nudge this board back toward football. What if the weather is crappy? That would seem to favor CState given that IC has no running game and depends on the pass. Might be worth sitting in the rain yet again!
Are there any injuries lingering on either team that are notable? I know Dom Sair returned to the field this past week but once again injured his ankle so will likely not play. Any IC injuries to speak of?
You can throw the weather right out the window..... it's Cortaca!!!
I can't remember the last time there was crappy weather at Cortaca though.... or did it rain in 2006? 2002?
Pretty sure 2008 would be considered crappy weather. It was freezing rain/sleet/snow. From a fans perspective it was horrendous conditions. I simply didn't have enough pregame to numb myself to the cold!
I have gone since I was a freshman in 03. I can remember 1 MAYBE 2 games where the weaher was tolerable. The rest have been miserable.
Cortaca is always won on big plays. Special teams, big defensive plays, and long scoring plays.
What? I remember the weather being fine in 03, 04 (maybe? watched on TV), 05, 07, and 09....
Hmmm... maybe the sun only shines on Butterfield....
03 was cold as all heck and it rained for chunks of the game (Butterfield was a mess, Tutweilers bomb to set up he GW FG was caught when the DB slipped in the mud)
ok.... i was in the press box so i thought i might have been remembering it wrong.

yes, it is better.
Cstate, better not stir up old memories for our IC posters. May slow down the rate at which they are able to post due to a sudden desire to type one handed as they recall the good old days and listen to Bette Midler on their iPods.
Which will happen first:
1. Cortland fans will think of an Ithaca zinger that doesn't include the phrase "reach around"
OR
2. Cortland fans will stay for the second half of a Jug game.

Look, just because the most difficult thing a Cortland grad has to remember is that your work clothes (AKA sweatpants) can shrink in the dryer doesn't mean you need to mock our education.
I mean seriously, of course you're not going to pay $50,000 a year to go to Cortland State. How much do penny jerseys, plastic hockey sticks and kickballs cost anyway?
btw, I can't believe how effing expensive it is now. It was $36K when I graduated and that was ridiculous. how much is cortland now? has there been a significant spike?
or should we forget this even handed discussion and simply point out that every Cortland grad has had his tuition refunded for unsatisfactory results?

You know I was just talking with someone who works at a small liberal arts college in the Boston area about the recent spike of tuition at many colleges and there seems to be a common theme among them. Basically, you could raise the price of these schools from 50K to 70K and pretty much 50% of the people who attend them are rich enough to pay it anyway. If you droped the price from 50k to 30k a year, the same people who couldnt' afford 50K a year, really aren't going to afford 30K a year.
So in the end, there is a rich subset of America which has children and those children are going to go to college 99% of the time, and those families can pay for it. That subst is large enough where the colleges can set whatever price they want, because they are going to pay whatever the price is. Then everyone else usually gets enough free money (50% at many schools) and then some loans to pay ther rest.

I say keep the extra tuition money you would have saved by not going to Ithaca. You Cortland guys need it for the extra drinks/shots you will need shortly before the "ugly light" comes on at the Dark Horse...

Oh... is that what happened? So you're telling me it's a tradition for Cortland fans to leave after the half when their team is up?
Is a 50K a year education better if you forget everything 5 years later? If their memories fade do IC grads forget the reach arounds that the upperclassmen they were forced to take in hopes of joining a Cornell wanna be frat?
Look, just because the most difficult thing a Cortland grad has to remember is that your work clothes (AKA sweatpants) can shrink in the dryer doesn't mean you need to mock our education.
I mean seriously, of course you're not going to pay $50,000 a year to go to Cortland State. How much do penny jerseys, plastic hockey sticks and kickballs cost anyway?
Ah yes. We all know how expensive it is to purchase the complete set of every Broadway show tune which completely justifies the tuition over there at IC.
I say keep the extra tuition money you would have saved by not going to Ithaca. You Cortland guys need it for the extra drinks/shots you will need shortly before the "ugly light" comes on at the Dark Horse...
I raise my glass to that which is always better then when the ugly light comes on in Ithaca as it's highly likely that you've been hitting on and buying drinks for an Ithaca Alum named Christine who you realize has an adam's apple.

That is quite a sentence. Google "punctuation" and come on back.
I feel like this game will be very low scoring. IC doesn't have a big play offense, and Cortland's got a stingy defense, but the Red Dragon passing offense strikes me as mostly being one-note (Giuliano). I didn't realize that Autera was their 2nd leading receiver.
The Bombers run defense will face a major test, because Autera is really good, and after what happened last week against Alfred...ye gods. But I wonder if the Bombers will be able to stack the line a bit more against Cortland and commit to defending the run. Conti and White aren't exactly shutdown corners, but if one of them can hold their own against Giuiliano, I think they can keep the others (Burgess it looks like) from having big games.
What's Cortland's secondary like? The Bombers have three pretty solid pass-catchers. Lopez looks like he's really talented, is Romano the other guy? Are they safeties are corners?
One really interesting stat that does not bode well for IC: Cortland has 9 blocked kicks this season, Ithaca has none. Seriously, what happened to the Bombers special teams this season? No blocks, no return TD's, snaps sailing over punters' heads on a weekly basis. IC's special teams used to be a major strength. Now, it's a major weakness
Andre Jamison will have a return TD this week. You heard it here first.
TASTE IT

Cortland secondary is opportunistic and has 19 picks on the season. Lopez and Romano corners. there may be some yardage to be had in the middle of the field but Zappia can't make a mistake. LBers are very quick.

Lol. Jamison's hype to production ratio is insanely out of wack. If he's as talented and exciting as people claim, he'd have more than five touches considering this team has struggled to make plays on offense all season. He catches a 43-yard TD pass against Hartwick and hasn't caught one since. Either the coaches are being negligent or they know something we don't
How do you all think IC will do against Cortlands take on the wildcat? Guiliano proved to be not only a threat to run effectively out of it but also threw an outstanding ball for a TD out of it. He was a QB at Westlake HS near where I live. Actually looked at the team rosters and there are two Westlake players, Giuliano and Gruber on CState and one, Carter playing for the Bombers. Must be interesting to face an old teammate at Cortaca. Given 52 years now, there must have been other instances. Anyone recall any?
Not sure about HS teammates, but I have a feeling the wildcat is not the best way to exploit IC's defense after we've stifled the triple option for many years now....

Pretty sure I read a comment by someone that was very true. Autera is good but the O line is a weak spot. The loss of Pitcher from the line was big. Autera's big plays I don't believe have been through giant holes opened by the line. Most that I recall, he broke or avoided a one on one tackle to get to the second level and beyond. Guess it's good that he is able to exploit small creases but he would be really outstanding with a more experienced line in front of him.

I agree, the loss of Pitcher on the line hurt. Castro had to move to tackle and is out of position and we are weaker at the RG spot. Autera is dangerous at anytime but particularly if he can get to the second level.
We have given up more sacks, QB efficiency has dropped and with the exception of Morrisville, Autera's yards have been harder to come by since the shuffling of the OL. It is easy to point the finger at the OL but we have to recognize that Autera is not a secret anymore.
That being said, I like Cortland's chances against an Ithaca D better than I like Ithaca's chances against a Cortland D but I am biased and proud of it.

I don't blame you...I like your D more too. That's why it's so critical to keep it low scoring. If we can hold you to 14-17 points, maybe we can break a big play, get a turnover to set up a short field. But if you guys get it into the upper 20's low 30's, we're in trouble

I think it's going to be tough, but Giuliano and Autera can break anything. That being said, to sort of echo Max's comments, IC's linebackers are really fast and talented, and I think they're much better against the run than the pass, so I think we can contain it

One thing that I can thank god for is that there was no such thing as cell phones/cameras/vid recorders back in the late 80s.

Or how about the old outgoing phone answering machine message. Junior year... four of us in a quad on-campus apt. Three of us get along... the other... manic and weird.
One time I left an outgoing message like this:
JT, cool dood, and other cool dood aren't available right now because we're seeing how long jerkwad can hold his breath. Please leave your name, number, and brief message at the beep.
Jerkwad's Mom heard the message and flipped out. Oh well. Humor is lost on certain people.
It was a blessing that instant video and other incriminating technology didn't exist when I was in college. Those are times to be remembered fondly with friends, not broadcasted to the world.
Getting picked up in about 20 minutes to head out of town so won't likely be on the boards much before Saturday. Been fun jousting on here. Hoping for a great game. Anyone headed to the game, enjoy and if you are looking for a beer before or after, will be setup in the Cortland tailgate lot with a red canopy. (Wow that really narrows it down!) Driving a black GMC Yukon. Stop by for a cold one.
GO CSTATE!!!
That IC girl got dominated. Surprised she didn't take out a check from Mommy or Daddy and waive it at the Cortland girl. Seems to be the go to move of the IC posters on here.
Also, on a side note, this will be the first Cortaca I will miss since my first in 2003.

2005 was gorgeous. Sunshine and I think we hit 60+ that day. 2003 was crazy...cold and partly sunny, but every now and then a lake snow band would come off Cayuga just to make things interesting. This Saturday looks very nice, not quite as warm as 2005 but still great for mid-November in Upstate.

Congratulations to Ithaca's David Ahonen and Cortland's Dan Pitcher for demonstrating that not all footballers are neanderthals.
Each was named to ESPN Academic All District First team and are up for academic all american consideration.
Well done.
Well here's to hoping this isn't my last Cortaca game but I have a feeling it is. My analysis on who will win is pretty useless since I have no idea how good Cortland is so I won't even try. What I do know is Cortland's seniors cannot be thrilled about the possibility of graduating without a win over IC. On the other hand IC has their number the past few years and expect to keep it that way. Either way I hope its a great game and the Bombers can double Cortland in total Jug victories!!
GO BOMBERS!!

Very happy that the only Pitcher on the CState team is our quarterback. Recent polls estimate that the Bombers are fairly evenly split with half the team Pitchers and the other half Catchers.
Long time no see, all. First - Go IC Men's Rugby. State champs, and still not recognized by the school. Second - In addition to the established LA Cortaca-viewing party Cortacal, there will be an NYC party this year (NYCortaca) as well as a DC event (Cortacapital) that will likely see Enforcer, High Life, and friends finishing the evening on a terrorist watch list of some sort. We have secured several food and beverage specials that the host establishment will surely regret. If you're in the area and looking for trouble (even you Cortland people), let me know.
And, in other news, dig Enforcer and crew as the poster boys in today's Syracuse Post-Standard.

You know, you Cortland guys seem rather well-educated in these sexual scenarios. Multiple reach-around posts and now a "pitcher" and "catcher" joke. What exactly goes on in those locker rooms after you send the students home?
And rest assured, that's probably the first time someone has ever used "well-educated" to describe a Cortland student.

Nice deflection attempt. We've learned about pitchers and catchers only from observing the Ithaca student body I assure you. Outrunning your roommate each night is a right of passage for freshman at Ithaca and from what I hear, by the second semester, most give up the running therefore the reputation.

Voyeurism implies watching things one likes so you got that totally wrong. More evidence of a waste of Mommy and Daddy's money. And the use of archaic middle english, "thy" is further evidence that the tuition was a waste of money. Unless of course your currently working as a waiter at Midevil Times.

Incorrect. I used the term voyeur as an insult, implying, obviously, that you do like it. As such, it is the correct terminology. Whether you agree with the veracity of the statement is another issue entirely.
However, you have used the wrong form of "you're."

RedDragonFan, I am not a homosexual, and wasn't never chased by my freshman roomate because he wanted to fornicate with me. On that same note, you are probably not dumb since you spelled the words 'your' and 'medieval' right........oh wait, never mind. Then again, I forgot you were on your blackberry because I know they don't have the letter 'E' on their keyboards.
EDIT: Of course the lesson we all should have learned in 6th grade is that there is nothing wrong with being gay, but there is something wrong with being stupid. Then again, Cortland grads and 6th graders aren't all that different.

Cracking up, +K. I've certainly got no horse in this race, but I would think if there is any week a Cortland grad would want to check their grammar/ spelling, this would be the one.

Crayons and kickball jokes bring a lot of laughs. Gay jokes can be funny, but you have to be intelligent enough to put them in the right context. I'll show you how it is done.

RedDragonFan,
I have no dog in this fight, but your homophobia is getting extremely tiresome.
The next step if you continue this particular line of "banter" is to request that the moderator ban you from the boards.
Even with the Monon Bell, the DePauw posters have mostly abandoned such BS (Wabash is an all male school).

This is different, kinda like SMU vs. Aggies, but I do think Red needs to move on to a new theme. My Dad asked what this Cortaca deal was all about. He saw me laughing at this board.
Cortland = Aggies ... Dad replied: Got it.
wow

Understood, but RedDragonFan has crossed the line.
I'll be like former Justice Stevens about pornography: "I can't define it, but I know it when I see it." Red Dragon Fan has made it into the 'hate speech' realm.

I'll cut him some slack... reviewing ex-RPI football player put downs vs. Union put downs before "The Shoes" game would help. Great material. Really funny. Although this year not so much, because they pretty much abstained. But in years past, what a blast.
I don't think Red is a bad guy, he just needs to work on his material.

I see. So you all decide where the line is. Ok. Go tell the teacher Mr. whatever your name is. I hope I don't get banned!!!! What will I do?
If you read back, you will see that I've said that it's all in good fun, but I guess no one pays attention to that. I will say it here again, all in good fun. Don't take it personal as I sure haven't. If your that sensitive, perhaps you shouldn't be throwing jokes on a board like this. Geesh, lighten up. It's the Cortaca board. What the hell did any of you expect? Are the Cortland jokes not at times insulting and questionable? Guess not. What are you a bunch of, oh wait...better not say that.

In the last two weeks at least 5 teens (at least one a college student) have committed suicide over bullying about their alleged 'gayness'. DePauw students have finally (mostly) stopped the slurs (and you'd be hard-pressed to claim Cortaca Jug is a greater rivalry than the Monon Bell). Maybe YOU should lighten up.
"All in good fun" is pretty weak sauce for hate speech. Improve your material or admit that you are NOT a comic.

Jokes about ones race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion etc, are usually looked at as jokes with poor taste. I'm actually not that offended by them, but it makes you more of the joke when you keep using them. It is easy to find pictures of gay people and post them and put a name under it. It's just not that funny. Again, sometimes gay related jokes can be funny and can keep clear of that line. Here is another example:
(https://www.d3boards.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fen.ce.cn%2FLife%2Ftrend%2F200806%2F30%2FW020080630534798203203.jpg&hash=103ca90c044cb68bd059c111cdc08eded2758906)
RedDragonFan and Cstate attend their 30th Jug game togetherNow this isn't funny because I think you two men are gay and like to have sex with men and that two men having sex is wrong or bad. This is funny because the outfits are funny and this might be a picture of two Cortland State grads.

I am speechless that you would even come close to equating the back and forth on the Cortaca board to the bullying that those poor kids endured. Are you frigging kidding me?
You think I am covering up the fact that my true motivation is to deliver hate speech about those who are gay? You think I am bullying people? Sorry you don't believe that I say it's all in good fun but that's your issue not mine. I couldn't care less about what Depauw students have or haven't said and by the way, you brought them up so I am not pressing that Cortaca is a bigger rivalry.
You don't like what I toss back at the Bomber boys, go set your preferences to not see my posts, tell the teacher, do whatever the hell you want.

I too think equating one with the other is a bit of a stretch. I don't really have a problem with what you've said. I think Ypsi is bringing up something that is wise to remember in that, fair or not, that there are certain topics that people, in general, will be less tolerant towards joking about.

Since 2006 perhaps ;)
This went from the Cortaca board to a public service message somehow?? People that have read my posts in the politics board will know that I'm always defending gay rights but It may be stretching it somewhat to call Reddragonfan a homophobe.

I am speechless that you would even come close to equating the back and forth on the Cortaca board to the bullying that those poor kids endured. Are you frigging kidding me?
You think I am covering up the fact that my true motivation is to deliver hate speech about those who are gay? You think I am bullying people? Sorry you don't believe that I say it's all in good fun but that's your issue not mine. I couldn't care less about what Depauw students have or haven't said and by the way, you brought them up so I am not pressing that Cortaca is a bigger rivalry.
You don't like what I toss back at the Bomber boys, go set your preferences to not see my posts, tell the teacher, do whatever the hell you want.
I too think equating one with the other is a bit of a stretch. I don't really have a problem with what you've said. I think Ypsi is bringing up something that is wise to remember in that, fair or not, that there are certain topics that people, in general, will be less tolerant towards joking about.
A bit of a stretch? It's outright insane. I get that certain topics will be less tolerated by some. My only defense is that
it's the damn Cortaca board. That said, if I've offended anyone, know that it was not my intention.
I think that its more or less calling Ithaca guys soft/spoiled. The choice of words might offend the easily offended.
Or simply those who think equating gays with soft and spoiled is offensive, like me.
I agree with Ypsi, but this kind of stuff is all over the board, I think we're definitely making a scapegoat out of RD unfairly. Hell Ypsi, don't you read the LL board?? :) Toning it down all around is probably in everyone's best interest. I think we should just move on and agree to keep it clean and CORTLAND F***ING SUCKS ah hell I couldn't even finish the sentence.....

Get some new material, man! :D
[It was mildly offensive the first time, but my 18-year-old son calls anything he doesn't like "gay", so I'm used to it. Doing it over and over and over and ... was the killer. ::)]
This is not relevant to Cortaca but I needed to post this somewhere... Am I the only one thinks that the NFL network crew of Bob Papa, Matt Millen, and Joe Theismann is one of the worst in NFL history? I mean the announcing of that game was a train wreck.
How can yhou watch an NFL game when there was a college game on .....even if it was Pitt and UConn. I place NFL football below Pop Warner on my "Gotta Watch List".
I don't follow any of this...what is wrong with calling someone happy?
I can even use it in a sentence: All Bombers are happy.
I don't get it.

While this crew is bad, don't forget this is the same network that once employed Bryant Gumbel as part of it's announcing crew.
I agree with another poster, I'd watch Pitt-UConn (or UAB-LaTech for that matter) over am NFL regular season game any day.

If reruns of the same lame jokes are what set you off, then the jokes posted by both sides must have driven you crazy by page 4 of this board. Then out of the other side of your mouth you state that you're "used to it" (note the proper use of you're..see we do learn!) because your son calls anything he doesn't like gay. F$%&ing mindboggling what must be going on in your head. Have you also attempted to censor your son or do you just tell mom? Too bad kids don't come with "Report to moderator" links on their foreheads.
Don't judge me by my posts on a board setup to goof on each other. You ever see me on a "serious" board posting anything close to what I've posted here and you have a reason to be upset.

I don't think you do get it. I'm not offneded. I just thought it was funny that you thought it was funny calling people gay and equating that with being soft or going to Ithaca college.
ANYWAY, as the board's resident bleeding heart liberal, even I would like to move on to another topic...
Who here is going to be at the game? Where is everyone coming from? Since I graduated I'm on an Ithaca-hosting-only travel policy.... hopefully the video feed will be decent this year.

As you were quick to note my errors typing earlier, feel obligated to ask that you uncross your eyes when typing the word offended. I got your point. You think it's funny that I think it's funny blah blah blah.
Go back and find where I said that being gay equates to being soft. Pretty sure you will come up empty there. I certainly outright stated that going to Ithaca equates to being gay in jokes posted in response to many jokes stating that somehow attending Cstate makes a kid something less than a kid attending Ithaca. Am I offended? Nope. I get it.
Apologies Max. Was mid post when your plea to move on came out. Last one from me.

In '01, when I was a freshman, a new professor looked around at Park and said, "Syracuse would kill for facilities like these." Back then, it seemed like a no-brainer. But now, choosing Newhouse over Park might be a smart call , considering their facilities are better. When were you accepted to IC?
(And to those who know me personally, yes I am obviously biased towards the older version of Park. Deal. ;) )

Cortland 24
Ithaca 13
Yeah, yeah, it's Cortaca, records don't matter, I'm an Ithaca hater, blah, blah. Cortland strikes me as the better team and Ithaca's one-dimensional offense is going to struggle against a good defense.
If Ithaca wants to pull off the upset, I think it will need a strong game from whoever they put on Giuliano, White or Conti (anyone know who?). I believe Cortland's passing game is one-note and if Ithaca can not have to commit lots of guys in the secondary and can get their LB's more focused on stopping the run, they might be able to keep it close.
Someone on Ithaca's special teams is going to have to make a play though. And I mean a big play. Long return deep into Cortland territory. Blocked kick. Something. If Max's man-crush could do something, it'd be much appreciated

Would have started Fall of 1986. I looked at them again in 1987 but I was pretty happy with the faculty at SUNY. One of our star professors moved on to Newhouse 2 years later (Bob Thompson), but I couldn't pass up learning from him and having him as a faculty advisor.

Cortland has the edge. Just hoping it's enough given that as stated previously, anything goes in Cortaca games. It seems that the performance during the season just doesn't matter. Defensive battle with special teams of Cortland winning the field position battle. Cortland 17 Ithaca 14.
Mediocre IC QBs have torn it up at the Chugger.... I'm thinking this Cortland team isn't enough of a beast to snap the streak.
IC 27
Cortland 17
Like I said, first time since freshman year (2003) I won't be going. Starting to regret the decision a bit. Will watch on TV.
Am I the only one who finds it funny that the IC guys get on the Cortland guys for being neanderthals, but their signature chant is "Oooga Booga"? Also, you chant the ever creative "We got a first down!" while point in the right direction. It took 50 years of Butterfield tradition to come up with that.
Cstate's prediction: not nearly enough first downs for IC, Cortland wins a runaway for the first time in awhile 31-13.
FDC is no more. Now there's a bunch of sophomores that call themselves the "bomb squad." a paltry substitute, if you ask me....
What exactly does the "Bomb Squad" do?

Seriously? The same tiny webcast window from 2008?? Jesus Cortland get your **** together.
Not to keep complaining, but this ICB intro is DREADFUL.
I can't maximize this?
Padanova, get the Cortland Comm dept on this webcast STAT
This small ass window is unbelievable.
Steve Flemish looks like the biggest nerd I have ever seen.
Ahhh this is tough to watch. Very much regretting my decision to not go.
Nice kick coverage.
F*^%$
Missed it! Sucka!
Is Cortland a Catholic school? Announcers keep talking about Autera "atoning".
Damn he had him.
For those not watching, specificity on plays would be helpful.
IC takes opening kick 45 yards to the 50 and goes 3 and out....... Cortland fair catch at the 9....first play Autera breaks out for 20 before fumbling....IC picks up one First before missing FG....Cortland drives down to the 31 on a 37 yard run by autera.....on 3rd and 8 pitcher over throw a wide open wr who would have scored on a post pattern.....

Thanks... sounds like it's going to be one of those games... I'm more closely following TCNJ and Rowan, which TCNJ leads early.
You don't like this vague commentary?
I've been cooking, but
-Huge return for Jamison
-IC 3 and out
-Cortland fumbles on first play
-IC FG no good
-Cortland driving
-didn't see what happened after that
IC with two first downs to 48 and a big pass play down to cortlands 10
ZAPPIA RUNS IT INNNNNNNNNNNNNNN TD TD TD
TD zappia on 10 yard bootleg.....%^$()*
8 plays 80 yards.....pass D looked suspect
Lovin' the Section V shoutout.... go Irondequoit...
6 carries 80 yards for autera......cortland driving
It is GuilianOO not GuilianIII ....jeez it cant be that hard
Attn Cortland: we beat Springfield EVERY YEAR (except last year) stop with the wildcat. it won't work.
FG Corrado 7-3 under 2 min in the 1st Q
We also pounded Alfred last year when they tried the Wildcat (or as I so eloquently referred to it, the Wild Saxon).
Keep stepping up, boys!
AYFKM with that question to the cheerleading coach???
"I have to ask the awkward question every male wants me to ask: how do you focus when you're a man coaching a female cheerleading crew."
Are you serious?? you just asked a grown man "how do you not want to bone every one of these chicks all the time."
Worst interviewer ever!!!
Funny, though.
Max, was that an ICB reporter or a C-State guy? I'm on a bus with shaky wi-fi on the way back from Baltimore.
Announcers are starting to get to me.....
I'm watching the C-state webcast.
Going to be a long day if the DBs dont start making some plays.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

If what I've heard is true a 14-3 lead at the half could have lead to a mass exodus of the crowd :P Key interception
Cstate did your dad go to Cstate too?

No, just liked coming up to spend a weekend, drink some beers and watch some football. He was a Plattsburgh Cardinal when they had a football team.
I am impressed by this Vossler kid.
Cool. My Dad was a Yellowjacket..... took me to run on Fauver field when I was a kid..... ooo sorry didn't mean to bring up bad memories for the AU guys.

I am impressed by this Vossler kid.
He's closer (maybe already has gotten it?) to the IC all-time receptions record.... or something like that.
Damn.... I knew about Ruggiero's brother but not his Grandmother on the same day.... thoughts are definitely with that family.

Yeah thats terrible.
Vossler! What a catch.
What a catch. Wow. F^%^
Yeah, so he's now the all-time receptions leader. I knew it was somehting like that.
Better than his catch in traffic two years ago?
This Cortland secondary play is sickening!
Welcome 77.
10-3 bad guys at half. Cortland is lucky to only be down 7.
CAN THESE GUYS FIND A DIFFERENT WORD THAN "ATONE"
My stream has been off all day.
Is it me or is the longest halftime ever?
What the hell happened? My screen ahs been black the whole time and it comes on and IC scores?
Get rid of the ball!
A Pitcher fumble leads to a 33 yard TD pass. Cortland down 17-3.
Wowow. Ithaca punter goes to his knee to field a bad snap and is ruled down at his own 3. Autera takes it in on first down. 17-10 Ithaca and we have a game.
3 and out for IC. Cortland driving.....
Cortland punt downs IC at their own 4.
Pitcher has been brutal today.
Corrado drills a 32 yarder. 17-13 with just under 13 to go.
Cortland recovers the fumble on the kickoff!
Did the Ithaca team do kegstands at the half? wtf.
Touchdown Dragons!
20-17 Dragons. Autera over 200 yards rushing.
Wow, what a comeback for the Red Dragons. Somebody conjured up some magic spells at halftime.
Ithaca punt....Cortland ball with 8:20 to go
Wife sent me out on an errand and I get back to no audio feed from the radio station. I missed all the action.

Errand couldn't wait? I just lost my TV feed.
Lost my TV feed, Cortland gets stopped on 4th and 1 on IC 33. IC takes over with 2 to go and 2 TOs
IC goes 3 and out.......Cortland ball on IC 33, Ic with 2 TOS
How much time left?
Cortland can run out the clock, game over, Cortland wins 20-17
It's over. Either Cortland woke up or IC choked it away, depends on your opinion. I will go with a combo of both. It is going to be a good year of bragging.

I will lean to choke, because of the punter who knelt at the 3 yard line trying to pick the ball up...That was the game changer.

We just had three in a row, you can have this one! :P
Tough way to lose, and an even tougher way to end the season, but if you'd told me IC would go 6-4 this year before the season, what with our lack of knowledge about the QB situation, I wouldn't have been surprised.
Additionally, the Mic/Jug jinx lives on. ICB won the mic for the first time since '06 last night, and C-State won their first Jug since then today. This is getting into Paul the Octopus territory now.
Congrats to Cortland. Autera was a flat out monster and the secondary stepped up big time in the 2nd half. Credit to the Dragons for not folding down 17-3.
As for the Bombers...well, special teams has been horrid all season and it was again. Both Cortland touchdowns were direct results of special teams screw-ups and Rogowski missed another make-able FG. Can't happen.
I'm not sure what to make of Cortland for the playoffs. Autera is as good a back as you're going to get, but they struggle with the downfield passing. The defense was good, although not great. The first half they were lucky to only be down 10-3. But the Bombers got nothing after the first drive in the 2nd half. The Cortland D got aggressive and made the plays
One side note: Time Warner Cable should never be allowed to broadcast another game. The ENTIRE first half, the kept referring to the Bombers JV head coach as Welch. Every time the camera panned to an IC coach, there it was. Flat out unprofessional and inexcusable. Once, I can understand. But did no-one in the control room know what Mike Welch looked like?
IC broadcasts aren't as polished, but at least there's basic competence.
+K to Max and Cstate for keeping the board interesting today.
Just got back home from another exciting Cortaca Jug game. My impressions:
* Vossler is tremendous, and Zappia showed a good arm today. This is the first time I have seen Cortland beaten deep repeatedly in 2010, and I think they deserve the credit.
* Otherwise Cortland was very strong defensively. There was no running room, especially up the middle. Lou Crispo is a monster NT and will be sorely missed when he graduates. BTW his parents are fantastic, fantastic peeps who made the last 5 years very enjoyable for me.
* Autera is the best HB I have seen all season between the NJAC and Cortaca. Considering how many tackles he was breaking near the line of scrimmage, it is scary what this kid might accomplish with a strong OL.
* Corvino (#32) was a huge recruiting steal for us out of New Jersey. He was huge all game long - special teams and on defense. Zappia was hurried on the final IC drive by Corvino for a key incompletion.
* Something just isn't clicking with Pitcher. The talent is there. I don't know, I'm just a clown in the stands. But it doesn't look like he is playing loose. He missed Miller way high early in the first quarter for what should have been an easy TD. Also threw way behind the wide open TE on 3rd down in the 3rd quarter for what should have been a 25-30 yard gainer. That said his receiving corps has had trouble getting off the line.
* Welch and MacNeill and their staffs deserve congratulations. Neither IC nor Cortland has anywhere near their best teams of the last 10 years, but they are a combined 15-5 and Cortland (as of 446pm) looks like a good bet for the NCAA playoffs. Clearly these guys can coach with the best of them.
As Bombers already stated...I don't know what to make of Cortland's playoff chances if they make the field. This is not a complete team at the moment. I can see them losing in the first round, and I can see them putting it all together and playing MUC in the quarterfinals. Bottom line is they will need a much more varied attack than giving it to Autera over and over.

Dan, I think you saw exactly what isn't clicking with Pitcher. All you have to do is look at Ithaca's receivers and look at ours. I disagree that the talent is there.. IC's recievers flat out make plays. Zappia can put it up there and they go get it. You take Giuliano out of the game and we don't have a receiver who will make a play unless it is a perfectly thrown ball. These kids can't get off the line, by the time they do our QB is about to get buried. Yes, he missed that early touchdown. The TE had a play on that ball but I don't think he has caught more than 1 ball all year. I thnk you are right about the OL...Look at the sacks allowed pre-Rowan and sacks allowed Post Rowan. QB percentage pre and post. efficiency pre and post. I thnk we are making the most of a bad situation and taking what we can get. We have to capitalize better on our chances but I can't hang that all on Pitcher.
It would be nice to clone Hajnos.
Hey guys-
I know it's late but wanted to post. I saw the first three quarters and then had to run out, feeling good about myself. Then I get the text from JQV: "It's over. Cortland puts up 17 in the 4th to come back." The next words out of my mouth were not nice.
Congrats to Cortland on a good game. Suspense is what the Jug is all about. Besides, it would be boring if Ithaca won ALL of them... ;)
I'll be at Butterfield in '11! See you all there!
Congrats to Cstate and to the Bombers who could easily have won that game. Cstate is finding ways to win games but I for one am afraid that won't cut it in playoff ball. The offense for Cortland was way too conservative IMHO. They need to open it up a bit and take some more shots downfield.
Vossler was outstanding. He is the definition of a playmaker. A ball in his direction and he comes down with it. Great game for him despite the loss.

Shots downfield? Pitcher was off yesterday. What about the post pattern he missed for an easy TD? Look I love him but he is missing guys right and left. With Autera doing anything and everything why would you take more shots downfield yesterday?

I too am a Picher fan. My point is that they need to be more than one dimensional particularly in the playoffs. After Saturdays game if I am the defensive coordinator preparing for next week, my task is pretty clear, stop Autera. Not sure of my numbers but seem to recall reading that Pitcher threw 16 passes, completed 9 or 10 for 60 yards. I recall the blantant miss you mention and maybe one other attempt 10 or more yards down field and that was it. I think you have to trust Pitcher to get that job done. We've seen him do it before so we know he's capable. Even if he's off as I agree he was, taking some shots downfield will at the very least keep the defense honest and give some more opportunities underneath.
I think that for the Cortaca game itself, it was obvious we couldn't stop Autera, so why go away from that?
But since you're looking big picture, even knowing how good Autera was, they got nothing from the passing game. When Ithaca had the ball with 9:00 to go in the 3rd, up 17-3, I remember thinking, "If we score a touchdown now, the game is over." There was no way Pitcher was getting them back in that game. But maybe it was just a bad game
Congrats to Cortland on winning the "JUG" this weekend. It was a very interesting game to watch and dlip was estatic that the game was televised.
Thoughts:
-IC's receivers are nasty, dlip saw that first hand in September at Butterfield when the Bombers dismanteled the Dutchmen
-Zappia had a heck of a year and really came into his own. dlip likes him
-IC's LB's were once again quite impressive
-Cortland showed tons of heart coming back and staying alive, although dlip feels IC handed them some of their opportunities
-Autera is nothing short of Nasty and if CS has any chance of making any noise whatsoever in the tourney he must be stellar
-Picher's play was very poor to say the least. dlip gives the kid a ton of credit for his effort (throwing some blocks) but his passing just was not there. Against a solid team in the tourney it may cost Cortland and make them completely one dimensional. dlip wishes him the best of luck though and hope's he proves dlip wrong

Good point. He was awsome for sure. When Pitcher is on, he's on. Throws a sharp ball, on target. That said, even when he's "on", it seems to me that it usually takes him a handfull of throws to get it going with some ugly misses in those early attempts. Still you have to give the defense pause to be concerned otherwise, Autera will have a much tougher time. I would like to see them come out of the gate throwing for just that reason, give him some confidence that they trust him but then again, that's why I am posting on a board and not on anyones sidelines or booth!
I think we have issues in every part of the passing game right now. I have already said on here that I don't think our receivers are playmakers except for Giuliano and if you take him out of the game we struggle. We have line issues. Pitcher has been sacked twice as many times the last 4 games as he was the first six. My sense is that he is rushed and can't find an open receiver because there are none. He is not as mobile as he was before his injury last year. I think he is frustrated and his confidence is taking a hit. That being said, I hear what a good leader he is on and off the field and he is like another coach out there. I hope we can find some early success in the passing game Saturday and give him some confidence. Quite simply, the offense must play better. We can't rely on Autera every week.

Bombers, did you see:
1) The sideline reporter ask the cheerleading coach "how do you stay focused as a male cheerleading coach around all these female cheerleaders."
2) The play-by-play guy say "and speaking of old jugs" as a segue.
Especially #1; funny as that is, that is just about the most inappropriate question I have ever heard, even on student-run broadcasts. If I were that kid's boss he would have to transfer before he ever got another live interview.

dlip...fair criticism. Pitcher's play the last three games has not been what we are accostomed to with regard to throwing the football. I am hoping whatever the reason, he (we) snap out of it. I have wondered if he isn't playing hurt or something but haven't heard anything like that. We need to be balanced. I am going to look at the bright side and say that we have managed to overcome our woes in the passing game and win despite them. We know that he is very capable, if not, excellent and that bodes well for us if he can get back on track...He has to step up but he also needs help from his wideouts and OL as I have alluded to in another post.

I was at a party, so we didn't hear much of what got said specifically, but ye gods. If I were that coach, I would have said, "By being a professional, unlike yourself," and walked off. Like you, that reporter would have been pulled off the air quickly if I were his boss.
I actually e-mailed TWC about the Welch thing, and the director admitted their mistake, apologized and said they were editing their broadcast for the future showings. Classy move, but too little, too late in my eyes.
Frankly, what TWC needs to do is hire Cortland/Ithaca students to do the broadcasts on a one-game basis. I think it's ridiculous that a bunch of people have such a lack of knowledge about a team that they don't recognize the head coach. One of my pet peeves regarding national/regional coverage of Division III football is the stunning lack of knowledge the broadcasters have. Yes, some of that's understandable--it is, after all, D-III--but come on. I don't know if they messed up anything on Cortland's side, because I don't know them as well, but it was bad over on our end.
Pep would surmise that anyone providing commentary for a radio/TV broadcast of a football game, particularly involving teams with which one is unfamiliar, would require a great deal of HOMEWORK and PREPARATION. Pep has always admired the radio play-by-play of Bob Codispoti, a long-time Saxon, who does his homework. Pep seldom gets to listen to Cody because of his responsiblities with the band, but has assisted with color commentary a few times through the years. It's no easy task if you aren't familiar with the teams. TWC should have had someone "in the know."
On Saxon Warriors!
