Re: ACC

ACC is on fumes. 2029 ? It would not shock me. It is going to be interesting to see how it plays out. It really should be P3 now. Once Clemson, UNC, and FSU leave the ACC we will become a G7 with Pac-12 and ACC losing all their powers. Add Miami to that list as well. The rest of the league offers l...

Re: How long will we have access?

Random Thoughts. If it is truly going to be an NCAA championship, then every conference needs representation. There are ten conferences in FBS, All ten conference champions should make the field. They could do 6 at large bids and that's it, 16 teams no byes. OR They could up the number of at large ...

Re: ACC

Indiana and Duke woke up today P4 conference champs. What a wild season. How long will the Clemsons, Penn States, and Floridas of the world tolerate the likes of Duke, Virginia, Indiana, Georgia Tech, and Vanderbilt being good before they start calling to go back to the old ways of college football?

Re: FB vs the Thundering Turds, Sat at 2:30

What is the percentage of football, basketball and I’ll add baseball players who actually stick it out at the schools they sign with. You really never see or hear those numbers. I wager it’s probably much higher than 50%- at least I hope so. I agree with your sentiment in general, but somewhat rela...

Re: FB at No. 24 JMU, 3:30 p.m., ESPN+

I am fairly confident App has a very good record again ranked JMU teams in all sports since they joined the SBC. App has already beat a ranked JMU team this fall. I had little hope for App in the game until I saw the number next to JMU

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

I have been really busy this past weekend but have a lot of thoughts on this season. --quick OT shout out to my daughters' Trinity Titans for their 5-2 win in the VISAA D1 field hockey state championship game Saturday. VISAA D1 is the large private schools in Virginia and probably one of if not the ...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

18 spots. I assume nice conferences. They should go to 20 teams and each corner of the bracket can have one round 1 game that feeds into 3 teams starting in round 2. There are 10 conferences and 8 at-large (the ACC will be getting 4 of the 8 this year). I would like it to go to 10 and 10. Actually,...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

This has to to be the strongest conference year App has been in in decades, maybe ever. I don't ever remember the NorPac being this strong. It would be good to see the MAC get some recognition for an at-large bid, but I am sure history plays a lot in this as it does in other sports. I could probabl...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

Seven seniors were recognized Friday, and many of those have been key contributors during their entire career at App. This season was a testement for the value of experienced teamwork was I would guess (though I haven't checked) they are the most successful senior class in App field hockey history. ...

Re: Winning….

For me, the real eye opener was when one of my daughters asked why I watched sports so much. My answer was, "because it's fun." She just said, "ok," and went about her business, but my own answer stuck in my head. OT, but this statement sums up a majority of the non-serious or casual conversations ...

Re: Oreg St at 3:30pm - Discussion

If I had a critique from yesterday’s game it is very clearly how Loggains called plays the entire fourth quarter. I thought Loggains was calling offensive plays. It seemed to me the defense was on the field for the entire 4th quarter except for 6 plays? So not not much play calling going on. The de...

Re: 2025 Women's Field Hockey Season

Well, the high from breaking into the rankings didn't last long. Conference foe Miami (OH) beat App 7-0. It doesn't get any easier as a ranked Liberty squad comes to Boone tomorrow. When App broke into the ranking I was worried about going 0-2 this weekend, but Friday was just uglier then I thought...

Just how close would the JMU FH field be to the railroad tracks that run through their campus? Asking for a friend. The JMU field hockey stadium isn't near the railroad tracks that runs through the middle of campus. Instead, it is on the opposite of the interstate highway that runs through the midd...
