Re: 2017 (Way Too early) Colonial Athletic Football Conference Predictions
Thanks for the updates, waiting for the rather obvious Patriot League standings.
UDel and URI at 2-6? Ouch.
Re: 2017 (Way Too early) Colonial Athletic Football Conference Predictions
I have a hard time seeing Villanova going 6-2. They lost quite a bit on defense, their QB situation is pretty average and they'll be breaking in a new head coach. They also took some assistant staff hits.
Re: 2017 (Way Too early) Colonial Athletic Football Conference Predictions
How do you have Albany going backwards when they bring back almost every skill position and have bulked up everywhere?
Re: 2017 (Way Too early) Colonial Athletic Football Conference Predictions
I think Delaware is better than 2-6 in conference with Rocco at the helm. For the same reason Richmond is a bit of an unknown until we see a few games. The season opener in Huntsville will be telling.
Which two games do the Dukes lose?
Maine
@UDel
Villanova
@W&M
UNH
@URI
Richmond

I'll take them one at a time. Villanova will beat Lehigh the same way as last season.
Running the football 50+ times. Lost some big names on defense, but the back 8 is essentially intact in their 3-3-5 except Calitro @ OLB. (Nova has depth there & the probable replacement was a stud in Pitt game). That will help slow down the Lehigh's pass offense. The front 3 have the biggest question marks especially with Kpassagnon taking his beastly act to the NFL.
As far as the CAA it's JMU on the top of hill & we'll sort out of the rest.

This is too easy:
1. JMU
2-12. Everyone else

This, also its pretty funny to think a young UMAINE, UNH, UA team from last year are going to do worse in conference than stony brook and towson this year. Poster doesn't pay attention to other conferences that much
Re: 2017 (Way Too early) Colonial Athletic Football Conference Predictions
JMU is on an 11 game winning streak vs CAA opponents going back to the 2015 season. They've also won 21 of their last 25 CAA games over the last three seasons. What part of that makes you say we will definitely lose 2 CAA games?
Additionally, Towson is too high. Albany and Delaware are too low. Maybe WM too but I need to see them improve first.
