Wagner 3, FAU 0, Halftime

[Lehigh Football Nation]

If this score holds, is this a bigger upset than App State over Michigan?

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

A big upset, but not that big.

It's a Sun Belt team.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

A big upset, but not that big.

It's a Sun Belt team.

This is extremely embarrassing for FAU. Wagner is a poor FCS team!

[Lehigh Football Nation]

I'm not so sure. This game is the first game against an 85 scholarship team in Wagner history with a team with less than 40 scholarships.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

I got news for you. Wagner is driving in FAU territory.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

The last time FAU lost to an FCS school? The FCS semifinals, when Colgate embarassed the Owls at home, 36-24.

[Mr. C]

FAU was such an arrogant team at the FCS level, particularly their fans. If people remember, FAU won an FBS game in 2003 by beating Middle Tennessee State (McNeese State knows that school) one week and losing to D-II Valdosta State the next week.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Looks like FAU is knocking on the door.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

39 yard FAU FG is.... NO GOOD. They were in the red zone, Wagner's "D" pushe them out, and a 3rd down pass went through the hands of the receiver.

Still Wagner 3, FAU 0.

[grayghost06]

Wagner holds...Missed FAU FG. Still 3-0 w/ 5:13 left in 3rd. This is a tremendous effort by Wagner!

I'm still bitter that the playoff committee stiffed Lehigh to get FAU in there. Having Colgate beat them was awfully sweet.

[kdinva]

FAU misses a FG..........Wagner still up 3-0; 5:10 to go in the 3rd.

[JMG1MON]

Let's GO WAGNER!!! For FCS and NEC!!!

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Wagner driving in FAU territory again! Under 3 minutes to go in 3rd!

The announcers are trying to avoid saying that FAU's defenders are "worn down", but it seems like they actually are...

[Go...gate]

The last time FAU lost to an FCS school? The FCS semifinals, when Colgate embarassed the Owls at home, 36-24.

That was their last FCS loss? Holy mackerel. What a wonderful game that was for Colgate.

[Go...gate]

Let's GO WAGNER!!! For FCS and NEC!!!

Ditto that!

[kdinva]

Fine pass break up by the FAU CB, preventing a seahawk TD.

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

Wagner punts....touchback.

[Sader87]

Where are you guys watching this?

[grayghost06]

ESPN3

[Sader87]

Got it...thanks grayghost

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

FAU fumbles in the red zone.

Wagner recovers.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

WOW... FAU FUMBLES IN THE RED ZONE...

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Just pure blood and guts from Wagner! They cared about getting the ball more. He just ripped it out!

[JMG1MON]

Come on Doscher! Lead them to a TD!!

[Lehigh Football Nation]

3-and-out. FAU d-backs cheating up to the LOS on Wagner's WRs. No respect at all.

[grayghost06]

Wagner punting from their own endzone. FAU takes over on the Wagner 48. Twelve minutes left.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Wagner "D" will have to stand tall one more time here. FAU in great field position, but their offense can't have much confidence.

[JMG1MON]

Crap!

[FCS_pwns_FBS]

FAU scores. Gotta answer here.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Crap. One play, TD to a wide-open receiver, #87.

[grayghost06]

Crap....48 yd bomb- guy was wide open. 7-3 FAU

[dgreco]

Rough play for Wagner on that one. Hopefully Wagner can score a TD

[JMG1MON]

Wow, almost had pinned FAU at the 2. Not sure he can advance it 2-3 yards into the endzone, but probably.

[grayghost06]

I think Wagner is just running out of gas

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Big stop by Wagner on 3rd down! Cmon Seahawks!

[grayghost06]

Huge hit-huge stop by Wagner. Then FAU shows no respect and goes for it on 4th and 1 from their OWN 46. FAU 1st down.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

I am feeling some weird DL interception return for TD from Wagner. Don't know why.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Gotta hand it to FAU, they are making the big 4th down conversions.

[grayghost06]

FAU goes for it again on 4th and 2 at the Wagner 32. Another 1st down for FAU. 3.5 min left.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

3rd and 2 FAU pretty deep in Seahawk terrritory, and Wagner calls their last TO.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

FAU converts the 3rd down. 2:51 left. No Seahwawk TOs.

[grayghost06]

2nd and goal for FAU- 2 min left. Wagner out of TOs

[Lehigh Football Nation]

FAU not going to victory formation? Why?

[Lehigh Football Nation]

If you're FAU, why on Earth do you line up in the pistol? Too much bad stuff can happen. Wagner can actually still wn this thing!

[Lehigh Football Nation]

LIKE THAT!!! A FUMBLE!!! WAGNER RECOVERS WITH 20 SECS LEFT!!!

[JMG1MON]

Annexation of Puerto Rico???

[grayghost06]

Wagner holds at the 1! Only about 20 seconds eft...96 yards to go.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Dear Big Guy Above: Hook and Ladder?

[Lehigh Football Nation]

if the Owls somehow lose this, they have nobody to blame but themselves.

[JMG1MON]

I'll pass up a win tomorrow by Monmouth if it means Wagner pulls this one out.

[dgtw]

FAU not going to victory formation? Why?

It may not be in their playbook.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

I'll pass up a win tomorrow by Monmouth if it means Wagner pulls this one out.

Me too! LOL

[JMG1MON]

Pick up 25 yards, get out of bounds!

[Lehigh Football Nation]

It may not be in their playbook.

I guess it's not something they're used to. *rimshot*

[Lehigh Football Nation]

:02 left. Tebow.

[Lehigh Football Nation]

Pass dribbes incomplete. Wagner has nothing to be ashamed of. FAU 7, Wagner 3.

[Seawolf97]

What ever happens Wagner deserves a ton of credit.

[JMG1MON]

Me too! LOL

Haha!

[JMG1MON]

Okay, my one time is still alive for tomorrow! Hats off to Wagner!! Way to represent the NEC and FCS!!!

[grayghost06]

Great game and effort Wagner! You guys went toe to toe w/ them for 60 minutes.
"Aint Gonna be no Rematch"

[dgreco]

Tough finish, but great performance by Wagner

[danefan]

Great showing by Wagner. Let's hope they stay healthy this year. They've had a ton of potential with Doscher at QB, but haven't been able to stay intact an entire seasonal see that through.

[MplsBison]

LFN didn't give a crap if Wagner won or lost.

He only cared about another chance to rag on a I-A team for losing to an I-AA team, and a "low major equivalent" I-AA team at that (even better).


So to that I say: suck it LFN. And have a nice day. xnodx

The Doscher era should be over NOW. If Wagner had ANY pass game last night,even a mediocre one, and a QB that could make it happen(legs and arm) they would've EASILY won that game.Wideouts were getting open and left stranded.
The D was lights out.FAU in man all night and no shots down field...eeeehh.That said great effort and way to rep the NEC.Hameline should be proud!!!

[busybee14]

OH,anyone see Warren Sapp hangin with the Seahawks on the sideline ???

[AmsterBison]

Wish the Seawolves would have gotten the W... they gave my team (NDSU) a pretty good battle back in 2009 too.
