Not to sound like a real downer, but maybe it would be a good
thing if SB lost out. Change is good and the time is now to make
some changes.

Just heard on Caafb that if we win both games we can still make
a case to be entered into the playoffs

And I’ll bet somebody on Caafb is smoking the wacky weed. By at
least one measure (Sagarin) there are nine teams in the CAA
better than SBU. Delaware is not one of them, so a win over them
will be meaningless to the selection committee.

Hello all,
I'm new here but wanted to introduce myself. My name is Dan
Steenkamer and I'm glad to be serving as the "Campus
Correspondent" Delaware beat writer for HERO Sports FCS. I'm
actually a student journalist, so this season has been a really
nice opportunity to get hands-on sportswriting experience.
Anyways, I share all this because I thought I'd contribute this
link to the thread:
HTML https://herosports.com/fcs/football-2019-delaware-seeking-turnaround-stony-brook-scsc.<br
/>The link takes you right to my Stony Brook/Delaware preview
for
this week on HEROSports.com (no subscription is necessary to
view any HERO Sports FCS coverage). I invite you all to take a
look and let me know if I missed anything about the Seawolves! I
do my best to study each opponent and its statistics as closely
as possible, but no one knows any given team better than that
school's fans!
The article may also provide some insight for those who haven't
been tracking Delaware all season long. ;)
Enjoy and have a happy rest of your FCS season,
Dan

Nice article. Quite honestly, I believe SB will just lay down
and concede in this game. I dont want to be the only fan to
speak the truth around these boards, however. I feel as if SB
players have given up and will take this season in stride.
Our defense is not the defense of the past. As you alluded to in
your article, we are giving up 'phone book" numbers of yards
each game. Our O line, as big as they may appear is just not
making holes for our RB to go through. Again, something that is
unorthodox of SB ball. our go-to WR is Andersen, he is our only
shining light this year and he is good, very good but we need to
have others step up to the plate.
Bottom line. Delaware wins by two scores on Saturday.

Absolutely. Can't speak for the rest of the country off the top
of my head, but a 7 win CAA team will always at-least be
considered for the playoffs. If Villanova can win out they'll be
9-3 and be our quality win to show we deserve playoff inclusion.
As alluded to earlier though, do we really deserve to be in the
playoffs? Does this team want that? As long as we can deny
UAlbany a playoff bid I'm happy. Coach P needs to go regardless
and extending him was a mistake.

it's possible- some might look at the JMU game, as it was high
profile and against a top team.
but if we made it- we'd certainly limp in, and i'd expect a
first/second round exit. the CAA is strong enough to really get
past most first round games, and we've played a few good games
this year, and football is such that injuries, film, and weather
make late fall games very different than september games.
