Thanks for the TV link... I am quite surprised this game is not on CN8.

No changes to the starting lineup for today's game. Scott is listed as the backup to Eachus at TB, but as far as his potential for playing today, that's up in the air. He did appear to be injured in the Holy Cross game, so we'll see how he's doing today

The Jordan Scott Record Countdown:
The Jordan Scott Record Watch
Career Rushing TDs (Colgate): 2 TDs
Career Scoring (Colgate): 11 points (3 points for 2nd)
Career Carries (Division I): 3 carries
Career Carries (NCAA): 58 carries

Nate Eachus needs 128 yards rushing to reach 1,000 on the season, which would make him only the 2nd freshman to do so in school history (Jordan Scott being the first)
