I agree LeadBolt and I think most posters here, and most people that watched the game and understand football to some degree, would agree with you. The stat lines were near identical, except for the turnover margin. Being roughly equal in most stats, with us having the advantage in some categories, yet the score being as lopsided as it was, shows that we could have been in that game - but instead we were responsible for the loss. Turnovers, dropped passes, missed kicks, bad snaps ... the list goes on of small executional errors on that took us out of the game.
The big thing this saturday will be getting the turnovers under control. The next will be finishing drives.
Albany has been allowing points to lesser competition, so if we execute plays as we are supposed to and don't turn the ball over, we should finally see some offense at Zable.
This is an Albany team that was starting to hit its stride with wins over easier competition, then ran into a bye week, I'm hoping that cools their pass offense off some.
For what it's worth Sagarin has them as very very slight favorites.
