9/2: Villanova @ Lehigh

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Going to be very tough. Unlike last year, Nova not coming off a Pitt game. They will be a fresh veteran squad. LU should be able to score but I think we will need to win TOP to protect our D to get a W. We have a very good RB in Dom behind a veteran OL. Even so we will need to establish pass 1st with Mayes and WRs to give the run game some room.

Game comes down to Lehigh's front 7. They were pushed around by Nova and UNH last year. They have depth and 5th year guys which is something that hasn't existed since 2011. They MUST be able to control the 'Nova ground game. 'Nova is going to churn out yards but hopefully not 396 worth.

Lehigh's offense will have enough success to be in position to win. The defense win tell the tale....
