It really wouldn't be a bad play if they adjusted the play so that Caskin's ran a 5 yard route, as a 2 yard route like yesterday, it was not so cool...

Or kicking the PAT when we are down 5?
Or how about punting late in the 4th qtr when we are down 17? [Elon]
All strange decisions.
I didn't understand the PAT down 5 either. It goes against the book as I learned it.

RE: Game 7 - Delaware
More posts about what we did wrong in victory than leading up to the game. You guys are a trip.
Brock seemed like a nice fella and I wish him the best. Mickey Matthews, on the other hand, can burn in the Lake of Fire.
One Tribe. One Family.

RE: Game 7 - Delaware
The O line was blowing the UD defensive line off the ball on our last TD drive. Kendall did a great deal on his own but he did have some holes. The O line did well last week,also.
This week off is coming at a great time of the season. These guys need a break .

How about giving Jimmye some love for that onside kick too. It looked a lot better because it worked out but they clearly saw something on film and it was huge for momentum.

I just noticed in the highlights that Swinton's endzone pick was a direct result of Lubnow blitzing unimpeded to the quarterback. Great call by Andrews there to bring the pressure.

The athletic department is really trying to pack the house for Maine. They're offering 4 extra tickets to season ticket holders

Yeah, great blitz call on that play. Was also great to see Christian involved. He had a huge catch on the ensuing possession. I believe it was a 30 yard completion shortly after Cluley's long run got called back.

I received a letter from the athletic department last week saying that as a season ticket holder I could get four complimentary tickets. They are also having pregame skydivers, a special halftime ceremony, free thunder sticks, and a postgame laser show.

Christian looked great all game. It's nice to see him finally integrated into the offense. We even ran quite a few Dedmon-Christian sets that I've been drooling over since the transfer was announced.

They usually do this once a year. There's always one game that doesn't have something "special" such as Homecoming, Parent's Weekend, Senior Day, Home Opener. This is a good way to try and boost attendance.

RE: Game 7 - Delaware
Dedmon, Cluley, Caskins, Anderson, now Christian seem to be the offensive favorites of everyone on this board. Deservingly so, they are playmakers. There a number of guys that are playmakers, but are not called on in that way. They do their job very unselfishly and are rarely if ever mentioned on this board.
There are two players that I think the world of. They play a position that can collect offensive stats, but you won't find their full impact on the stat sheet. #86 Eric Hensly and #82 Tyler Klaus. I am sure there are other unselfish players on the team, but I love to watch how they play. I'm sure these two would love to catch some passes, but you see them enter the game knowing they will be blocking for one of players mentioned at the top of my post. They do it often and do it well.
Dedmon and Christian will get the oos and awes from the crowd in large part because of Hensley and Klaus.

Hensley is as good a blocking TE as I've seen. I always love our two TE sets that feature him AND Caskin.

Don't forget Armstrong. He not only makes the plays he is also one of the best blocking receivers I've seen. It's all about desire.

No doubt. Armstrong and Kuzjak do a great job blocking down field. At least there's hope that a ball will be thrown there way once and a while.
Hensley and Klaus go in with a primary purpose; to block at the line of scrimmage. At critical times too, goal line and short yardage 3 downs.
Thought they should get a little pub.

According to an Instagram post by TribeAthletics, WM's defense:
is 5th nationally in fewest passing yards allowed per game
had 193 interception return yards which leads the CAA and ranks 5th in FCS
has 8 interceptions, including at least one in six of the last seven games.
