Too many turnovers cost us and we couldn't force any. Good job Elon.

No more conversations about we deserve to belong in the SoCon. Wofford and GSU and tied for first. Eat this Citdog!xshhhx xshhhx

After hitting 5 Fgs last week, Wilcox missed 3 today. Score could've been more lopsided.

finally a breather ;-) ,
last 4 games 3 on the road, 3 ranked opponents, 3 wins!!!!!
noth'n beats winning 'except learning how to win!!!!!
can't wait to see Defensive stats, keeping Wofford to 13 points is a huge plus.

Thanks for knocking off Wofford. Now I'm pulling for the App. State upset. It would be nice to move up to #6 and finally start getting some #1 votes for JMU. And thats only two of four games that have upset potential this week!

I don't see why we would get #1 votes in a bye week. More likely, Woffy's votes go to NDSU for their win over Minny. I expect the #1 votes to be divided between NDSU and UNI (assuming they win their game against WIU), and rightfully so.

Just wishful thinking. Everyone ranked #1-7 had first place votes, so I figured if we were #8, but moved up, we might get a couple. But yeah, I see your logic, we are unlikely to gain any votes on a bye, but maybe we see them start coming our way if we are able to win in the next two weeks

The SoCon is stacked. I am starting to think that the SoCon is just underrated across the board. When you see the A-10 with 6 teams in like the top 15, you have to wonder why that can't also be the SoCon just because 5 years ago it wasn't

Losing to Elon by 3 and The Citadel by 7, you have to think that Western is not an automatic win for anyone either. I am not sure there is a really bad program (like Elon/ETSU 3 years ago or VMI the last ten years of membership) anymore.

Good game Elon, you beat us good.

But I have a serious question, why did #60 keep coming back in the game on defense? He kept getting injured and having to leave the game. He had to have been injured at least 3 times. Why keep putting him back in?

I think you mean Eric Ludwig on defense? He has some sort of problem where he gets back cramps late in the last 3 games, or that is what has been reported. They stretch him and he goes back in.

At least the last injury didn't seem like it was his back, but I'm not sure.

Go Fighting Christians!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations to Elon. My favorite team other than El Cid since I was a little kid. So much for the fans of the so called "big three" talking so much smack about you guys prior to the season. Hopefully we can take care of business over the next couple weeks and maybe the El Cid-Elon game will mean something! (Maybe!)

I'll pull for you guys except for when we play you.

Elon fans, enjoy it while it last because Lembo torn it up at Lehigh his first year and was never the same after that. Of course different situation (he inherited Higgans team). (=

Seriously, why the sour grapes????????? He has turned this Elon program around in a short time..........

He really didn't inherit much at Elon, but turned a team that didn't have much into believers in his system.

The Patriot is no SoCon, and Lembo should be commended for the job so far.....turning the whipping boy into a contender.

I would put Elon as my #2 team in the SoCon next year behind App. Elon is extremely young and talented.

You Elon fans tell all these others to kiss your asses! Everyone and their brother had you guys in the basement, and were even questioning the SoCon for allowing you in. Blah blah private schools blah blah whine cry small enrollment blah blah! Now they are all congratulating you and telling you how "for real" you are!

This is crow served at its BEST. The only better thing that could happen would be for Samford to put an ass whuppin on the so called "big three" next year. PLEASE say it won't happen, guys!

First thing I thought of too...

I don't know where this idea that Lembo was fired at Lehigh got started. He was not fired. Elon opened up, He applied and got the job. He was going to be moving on at some point at his young age. Yes, there were some alums who didn't care for him from a personality standpoint, but no one doubted his football mind or organizational skills. As was reported some time ago, he has stepped on some toes at Elon as well...but when you're winning such bruises tend to be ignored. Pete can get prickly at times if there is criticism and he certainly got some after losing to Lafayette two years in a row and 3/4, but it certainly wasn't enough to 'drive' someone out of town if they have any kind of skin. If Lembo keeps the momentum rolling at Elon, he'll be gone within the next 5 years to a BCS school.

Sorry, but seeing some of the posts today (and in the past) from your fellow LU fans say otherwise. It truly sounds like sour grapes...........

Good win today! You've certainly earned some well deserved attention.

We are all the masters of our own destiny now. I think that Elon has an easier row to hoe at this point, but don't forget that Chatty and Furman are still dangerous.

I've been in Kidd Brewer before when the ASU fans were leaving a little early, also. Lose a few, and then come back and poke fun at Elon fans.

Kudos to Coach Lembo, his staff, and The Phoenix on an excellent gameplan and good execution- a well-deserved win.

I said this past summer that the SoCon would be a free-for-all. It is, and there's a lot of season left to go.

What a great time to be a fan! xnodx

At this point, every team in the SoCon is dangerous. When's the last time the SoCon had every team matter? Every game matters? No game is automatic?

Even in "down" years where the big three were down, ETSU and VMI (and Elon) were still automatic. Nothing is automatic now.

It is quite exciting.
