Message: [QUOTE="JeremyCuse, post: 2553510, member: 43"] Regarding the schedule I don't think your giving some of the remaining teams there due. Bingo as the opening game was fine I think opening up with a "lesser" opponent almost always makes sense. UVA is a conf opponent so I don't really include them as we play them every year As for Colgate, Navy and Hobart I certainly wouldn't call them borderline terrible teams. Navy hit a rough patch like we did and nearly fell apart but are now 5-4 and 4-1 in the Patriot league and beat Leigh last Saturday 10-7 at Leigh. There likely to have a huge advantage at the faceoff X with Varello's brother and if they continue to bulid momentum could be a very difficult opponent when we see them on 4/21/17. The good news is that they have Colgate and Army back to back before they place us which should tell us where they are at as a team. Colgate got off to a great start including beating Cornell before they lost Abbadessa there top attackmen to injury for I believe the year. They hit a bad patch after his injury but seemed to have re-grouped the last three weeks belowing out Boston U and Canisius and beating Army 8-6 last Saturday. They have 4 games plus the Patriot league conf tourney before they place us. Next two games are Loyola and Navy but then they get Holy Cross and Lafayette. They could have 9 or 10 wins bythe time we see them. As for Hobart the Syracuse game is always there superbowl. I don't think there as good a team as they have been the last few years but they will have a week to prepare for us as as they play Canisius tonight and are off until our game next Tuesday SU has a young team that may look at Hobart's record and think they can let up which would be a massive mistake.
