Cant count on 7 - 3s from Iceman every time out. This team will be inconsistent, as they are learning and growing up, and this game just seems like one where we make a lot of mistakes.

I'm not convinced that this will end our annual series with them. Martelli loves the City games, and Spiker is really embracing the Drexel history (latest: bringing in Jim Rullo this week... awesome.) I think they find a way to keep it going, home and home.

I really do not see us winning either but I am being optimistic we can keep it close. Also, if we do continue the series I think many of us will be ecstatic and it is a nice game for both programs. I am basing my guess on history which before Bruiser showed up was not a good one. I hope I am wrong and we can keep it on the schedule as a home and home. I would even be a fan of it going back to being the day before Thanksgiving, though I understand no game should be in that time slot if you plan on having anyone actually show up.
