       a few things:
       the live stream video and commentary were great.  kudos to SBU
       for finally getting it right and producing a quality event on
       the computer.  also, I was able to get the game on my Bluetooth
       via Shark 94.3 for the drive home from work. all in all, that
       was fantastic
       I did not think the ND offense was very good.  clearly their QB
       sucked.  Give some credit to our D for making things difficult
       for ND's offense all night long, but frankly, I expected more
       from a ranked opponent on the offensive side of things.
       Our O line is a work in progress, sounded like our new O line
       coach was moving guys around a  bit during the game to find
       something that would work.  we have to be paitient here.
       Carbone hit some good passes, and missed some easy throws.
       that's got to improve.  but he stayed in the pocket more last
       night than last season, no happy feet or running too soon.
       Bedell and Gowins should improve as the O line improves.  Gowins
       has to protect the ball
       I was pleasantly pleased that it looks like Coach Feles will not
       be following the Coach P way of running the offense.  we came
       out throwing the ball and I think that gave Carbone some
       confidence
       All in All" very exciting game.

       Great game but as others have stated we have some work to do. I
       was traveling so could not in attendance, but I have to tell you
       (as grateful as I was to at least be able to see the game on
       line) the streaming and play calling announcing was just sub
       par. The audio was horrible, and during the game on several
       occasions they kept on showing SB commercials while the game was
       actually happening. It really looked like a HS game being done
       by the video guys in high school. Can we get someone to at least
       ask these guys to do their own "game film review" because to me
       it was not good. Heck, they could not even show what down it was
       on the screen
       As to the game- I think the Special Teams Unit under Tony
       Thompson did an outstanding job (and not taking away the
       Chairman's point about the defense getting us 6 points- it was
       actually  the special team play that blocked the punt) and the
       field position play Coach P decided was going to be a major
       factor. The Directional punts and Aussies looked a lot better,
       and Lucansky's KO's looked a lot deeper but could not see his
       hangs (again the camera angles were just really poor). Popek,
       still has issues with the Bump on the hash marks and looked like
       he went outside the hash on the left instead of staying inside-
       but again not being able to see the angle, a friend of mine told
       me he pushed it about a half yard left.
       Carbone and the receiving core definitely missed on several
       plays but will attest that to first game nerves. As SBUFan
       stated, the O line needs some work and was really outclassed and
       out muscled by North Dakota team and on just about every running
       play I saw our O line guys standing in our backfield. I cant put
       that on Carbone. If they cant fix a different blocking scheme
       against Temple it will be along game! Beverette had an awesome
       game (but did miss the tackle on ND's first TD). Whoever called
       the bonehead play late in the fourth quarter to run the ball,
       clearly shows that we have not been a situation in  close game
       to know how to manage the clock. Great team victory no matter
       what it still a win- and at least called off the hang em high
       crowd going for Coach P's head. And yes its a long season-see ya
       in Philly

       Last year we beat UNH only to go into a skid of losing after
       that. This is a win I didn't expect  so it is a plus for us. Now
       scratch out 6 or 7 more wins  in the next 10 games.   Attendance
       was about par for the course 6153  per the game stats.  We need
       to do better with that going forward

       NY, I disagree, I thought the live stream was very good.  a VERY
       BIG improvement from previous years.  you may not have watched
       the last 2-3 seasons on live stream, but it really sucked.  I
       did see "down" info on the screen, not all the time, but about
       50% of the time.  yes, once in a while, a commercial abruptly
       cut in, but it was removed after a second or two. the
       commentators were good.  my only gripe is that the use of
       replays was limited.  could it be better?  yes!  but its a big
       step up.  maybe your internet connection was not very good.  I
       was at work on the west coast and the feed was perfect on full
       screen mode on my 24-inch monitor

       Congrats on the win. It was pretty much the hard nosed defensive
       football game we all expected.
       I was very surprised at how poorly our QB played, much of which
       I attribute to the SB defense. They were as advertised ... very
       tough. Though even against a tough D, I though Keaton played
       very poorly. Our defense did pretty much everything I expected
       of them. Front 7 were solid, secondary needs to improve.
       Tough to watch our top wideout go down. Sounds like it may be a
       broken leg. I was yelling at the TV on that one; he already had
       the first down and we were in good scoring position. Instead of
       securing the ball and going down, he tried to extend for a few
       extra inches and practically handed the ball to the defense. If
       he doesn't do that. UND likely scores, wins and doesn't lose
       their top WR for the year.
       Also surprised me that our punt coverage didn't improve prior to
       the block, given how close SB had gotten a few other times.
       Take the win and run with it, really hope you guys do some
       damage and surprise some folks this year. That defense is for
       real.

       BU.. Yes I have seen the coverage the past few years and thought
       with this newer group the audio would have been better. Maybe it
       might have been my hotel connection, but if you are telling me
       that you could understand the side lines lady then maybe I might
       need a hearing aid because it was garbled to me.
       I asked the my wife to see what she could record and when I get
       home will look to see if the downs were on there. But as they
       say, this is why they make chocolate and vanilla ice cream.
       Everyone has to be able to make opinion's/facts on what they
       experienced and I am giving mine. As I said I was grateful to be
       able to see and hear it. I agree the announcers were good until
       the one announcer who said... "well its only a leg" when the NDU
       kid went down was a bit awkward to hear, and that one I heard
       clear as day. On to Philly!

       I had a frieend who happen to be in SB Hospital yesterday and he
       saw you guy on a gurney, being rolled in, screaming bloody
       murder and he thought it was a break too. That sucks. I am sorry
       he went down like that. You guys are a tough football team and
       will go far this year in your conference

       I watched that game, UA looks very discipline this year and they
       have a smart quarterback. I didnt see him make any stupid throws
       or JV kind of mistakes. Their O line, though not huge, held
       Buffalo D.. This is going to be a tough year for us..
       Temple got beat up by Army last night too. I think there is a
       strong possibility SB pulls an upset win. A lot depends on that
       O line and if Carbone can make some big plays or not..
