Agreed. I legitimately thought without Hemphill we would finish
3-8 this season at best. Glad I'm wrong.

Something that needs to be said. If you think that SB is going
to roll into Maine and don't have a game plan they will have a
long ride home. what games were you watching 6 of the games
they played they just got by this is for all the marbles there
coming with there best and we need to put our best on the field.

When do you actually believe that we don't put the "best on the
field"? Like others I am sure the current 19 seniors and the
rest of the team who has been here for a couple of years will
disagree. Heck some of these young men came from successful HS
programs and am sure they are excited for this opportunity to
prove themselves. with that I am sure the boys will get up for
Maine and hopefully play better than last week.

We have plenty to play for. Hell, we have everything to play
for. Maine has nothing. They can send their seniors home with a
W and that's it. They can't keep us out of the playoffs, so
motivation definitely is on our side. If we take this game
seriously and don't treat it as a W in the bag, we should win.
This needs to be a statement game. Part of me hopes we come out
on Saturday and bury Maine the same way we buried Sacred Heart
earlier in the year. We need a statement win.
If we can blow them out something like 59-6 or something like
that, I'm sure we'll get a seed. If coach P gets lazy with the
gameplan, then it could definitely be a game we barely eek out
if not lose outright.

Exactly. Hey. If any doubts. Just look at that Capital District
team in the bottom of this league. We are rocking!!! SBU in the
top tier of the CAA!!! Lets go for more!

Here is a link to stats from the CAA website:
HTML http://static.caasports.com/custompages/stats/FB/2017/confonly.htm
SBU is 2nd in scoring offense; 1st in passing efficiency; 1st in
3rd down conversions; 2nd in Red Zone offense (scoring on 26 of
29 times in the red zone, 19 of them TDs!), 1st in KO return
yardage, 2nd in rush defense, 3rd in total defense, 3rd in
turnover margin, 1st in sacks given up. Are there areas where
the team can improve? Sure there are. But heck, the team has
performed well in all three phases of the game. The boys deserve
credit. So do the coaches.
