Re: Coulson predicts an all CAA final....

Hey, Stuckey, where y'at in Utah? Spent a year there in '05-'06 and loved it. Stationed in Tremonton for work and traveled every inch of Idaho, Utah, Wyoming and half of Nevada.

I am in American Fork, I work in Salt Lake itself. I still make it back to Montana frequently and would love to move back, grew up there. The job market is just not the same in Montana for Computers as it is in Utah. So you must have been up at Hill AFB?

No, I was managing a plant start up for a food company in Tremonton. No military.

They are still building stuff up there, that plant is still running last I heard. The Lazboy plant shut down a while ago now, so that kind of hurt that area bit. I like Utah, my nick isn't meant to slam utah by any means, I would just rather live in Missoula is all I guess.

Coulson has changed his mind.???? Tonight he picks us to win 28-24. He says the Spiders boys can't win in a hostile environment two weeks in a row. I'm not kidding. The whole column is different today.

#4 NORTHERN IOWA VS #7 RICHMOND (Saturday)
Northern Iowa fans must be wondering what it will take to see a team from a conference other than the Colonial. For UNI this is their fifth straight playoff game against a CAA team. Last year, the Panthers beat New Hampshire and lost to Delaware. This year, they beat Maine and New Hampshire, and now are facing Richmond. This is the first matchup between these two schools. It’s UNI’s seventh trip to the semifinals, and the school is (1-5) in its previous six, with their only win being in their last game in 2005 against Texas State. (UNI subsequently lost in the title game to Appalachian State). For Richmond, the Spiders are looking to advance to their first-ever National Championship game. Their only other trip to the semifinals was last year, and they lost 55-35 to Appalachian State. A win would also give Richmond their first-ever 12-win season, and would be their first ever win in an indoor stadium. (The game is being played in the UNI-Dome). Northern Iowa has won 10 straight games after opening the season just (2-2). Their last loss was a 27-24 defeat by Southern Illinois back on September 27, which was also their only loss to an FCS team. The Panthers lost in Week 1 to FBS-level BYU. During their winning streak, they’ve only allowed more than 20 points once, last week against New Hampshire (a 36-34 win). Even including that game, they’ve allowed on average only 14.3 ppg during their 10-game winning streak. Richmond, which has won 7 in a row since losing to top-ranked James Madison, has been even stingier on defense as of late. During their winning streak, the Spiders have allowed only 12.3 ppg over their last seven games. For the season, the Spiders have allowed on average 15.9 ppg, to UNI’s 17.4; they have scored an average of 32.9 ppg, to the Panthers’ 29.9 ppg. Richmond is led by Josh Vaughan (315 rushes, 1636 yds, 19 TDs) and Eric Ward (190-of-306, 2432 yards, 14 TDs passing). Northern Iowa is led by Corey Lewis (248 rushes, 1237 yards, 11 TDs) and Pat Grace (133-of-216, 1817 yards, 12 TDs passing). This will be, I think, a close affair, with scores in the mid-20s. And as great as UNI has been at home, after beating Appalachian State last week, I have to give my vote to the Spiders. Richmond wins, and I think gives us an all-CAA final next weekend.

Re: Coulson predicts an all CAA final....

Yeah, I've noticed he doesn't have much of a future in Vegas

That just makes me wonder if I want him picking us to win or not.

No, we like that he picks against us.

Recent picks:
'Nova over JMU = WRONG
Weber over Montana = WRONG
App St over Richmond = WRONG
UNI over UNH in LOW SCORING game = I'll call it wrong

He picked all CAA final, looks like UNI vs. Montana to me!
