It's nice to see that Towson fixed their discipline issues and aren't committing stupid, game costing penalties again this year. (/s)

4

u/Megalomanizac Furman Paladins Aug 28 '26

Walking away from that game I don’t have much confidence in the Paladins. Absolutely awful showing against a D2 school. At one point Anderson looked like the better team outright. Throwing up 451 yards and only coming away with 20 points (3 in the second half) is absolutely ridiculous.

The Ugly might need to get renamed after Northwestern State

u/FormerCollegeDJ Temple Owls Aug 28 '26

Wrong - it will be named after whoever decided to suspend the Lafayette/Georgetown game when lightning and rain never got within 5 miles of Cooper Field (and was considerably further away than that when the game was initially suspended).

u/Zloggt :chicagostate: Southern Illinois • Chicago S… Aug 28 '26

3rd & 13…and LCU converted the first.

I doubt that NW State had a strong chance of winning regardless…but still, fitting cherry on top of a catastrophic loss!

u/Tufoguy Towson Tigers • Navy Midshipmen Aug 28 '26

NAIA win over a scholarship Division I school. Wow

u/tden4 South Dakota State • Marching Band Aug 28 '26

2

u/Zloggt :chicagostate: Southern Illinois • Chicago S… Aug 28 '26

NW State gets a touchdown, and they're only down by five with 3 minutes to go!

...will they do what Morehead State and Drake failed to do?

u/SchizoidMan1989 Idaho Vandals • Washington Huskies Aug 28 '26

Three lower-division upsets already (and another likely). The way things are going I'm not going to have a shortage of Week 0 Tank Job entries.

u/Bobcat2013 Texas State Bobcats Aug 28 '26

For real. My gf was like "why are you watching high school football?"

  1. Babe, this is D1 football believe it or not

  2. Even if it was hs football, its football period and we are so back!

u/jacktriesreddits Aug 28 '26

The pioneer should be a d2 league.

8

u/_Rooster_ Illinois State • /r/CFB Top Scorer Aug 28 '26

D2 schools need to provide football scholarships and the Pioneer League doesn't.

1

u/PROUDgrizHATER Montana State • Montana Tech Aug 28 '26

Weird how that is a D2 requirement but not D1

u/_Rooster_ Illinois State • /r/CFB Top Scorer Aug 28 '26

I don't think they'd be allowed to do this now if it wasn't already a thing.

u/join_the_creed Montana State • Washington Sta… Aug 28 '26

Early Tank Job of the Year contenders this week.

Almost the entire pioneer league losing to D2 schools. The socklukis starting out with a whimper UT Martin laying an egg

6

u/powerlifting_nerd56 South Dakota Mines • Georgia T… Aug 28 '26

I'm allowing myself to believe that we're just really good for at least a week

3

u/join_the_creed Montana State • Washington Sta… Aug 28 '26

As is your right friend! Wear that win as a badge of honor!

3

u/powerlifting_nerd56 South Dakota Mines • Georgia T… Aug 28 '26

Crazy enough, a few of Montana State's coaches over the past few seasons actually coached at SD Mines. I think the only one still on staff in Bozeman is the DLine coach though

6

u/FormerCollegeDJ Temple Owls Aug 28 '26

Lafayette/Georgetown was just declared a no contest.

It never rained during the 2+ hour lightning delay at Cooper Field.

3

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

That’s a rough break for Lafayette. Their path to the playoff is pretty much Patriot League title or bust now.

They need at least 8 wins (and more likely 9) in 11 games and they’re not beating UConn.

2

u/isuzuki51 Lafayette Leopards • The Rivalry Aug 28 '26

We were down 13-7 at the half, but that also came off a fumble at their 26- this became a field goal- and a kickoff return TD. (Oh, look! Special teams is an issue again...)

Defense otherwise looked good. Offense is figuring itself out with a new QB under center and a new RB corps.

Probably could've come back around to win the game, which is a let down because this was supposed to be an early season "W" in a Patriot League that will be very competitive at the top (Nova, Lehigh, Richmond, W&M).

UConn next week is a loss, so that means we're going to need a nice long winning streak starting with Marist on the 12th.

2

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

Outside of the miscues, Lafayette looked like the better team (which we would have expected on paper, but like you mentioned, new QB and RB created a new-look offense that seemed to have some growing pains).

It definitely wasn't an "oh shit, watch out for Lafayette" showing like maybe last year's game against Columbia was or whenever Kente Edwards rushed for a million yards, but if Lafayette escaped with a W, there was definitely a path to 9 wins this year.

1

u/isuzuki51 Lafayette Leopards • The Rivalry Aug 28 '26

100% agree.

Unless things break incredibly favorably (and, I'm of the firm belief the Patriot League will become a clear Top-5 FCS conference, which means it likely won't) for Lafayette, this is a "gap-year" for us (for lack of a better word).

All I'm hoping for is a winning season and that the underclassmen show promise. This is now fully Coach Troxell's team through recruiting, so now it's time to see if that's for real or not.

11

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

The Hardrockers clinch the upset with an interception.

That’s the 3rd D2 upset over an FCS team tonight.

I’d say that Louisiana Christian could make it four but that’d be wrong - they’re NAIA, and leading Northwestern State.

3

u/tden4 South Dakota State • Marching Band Aug 28 '26

LFG MINES

u/tden4 South Dakota State • Marching Band Aug 28 '26

And UCA knocks off UT Martin to give the UAC 2 ranked wins on the night.

Can't ask for a better start.

Other than West Georgia, VERY good night for the UAC

Even if they drop this one, I can already tell West Florida is going to be a HEADACHE in UAC play.

A pretty strong showing from the UAC overall tonight.

The crowd is louder than the refs in the Drake game lmao

u/GridironFilmJunkie Great West • /r/CFB Aug 28 '26

Drake has gone straight CFB Heisman god mode on these poor Hardrockers. Really entertaining game to watch them get back into this and take the lead.

u/I_like_race_cars Tarleton State Texans Aug 28 '26

Looks like it bounced to me.

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

Low key, I forgot how much this ruled.

Flipping from good game to good game to upset to good game hits hard.

That’s the best part!

u/I_like_race_cars Tarleton State Texans Aug 28 '26

West Florida looks like they have the offense to be a good team.

But that defense is gonna have to get better and deeper.

Cheers, y’all! Enjoy every bit of it!

u/I_like_race_cars Tarleton State Texans Aug 28 '26

They missed a very obvious face mask on that run.

Still, That may be the nail in the coffin for the Salukies

1

u/join_the_creed Montana State • Washington Sta… Aug 28 '26

Don't know if it was a facemask or a hold but they missed something

Any updates on the Georgetown game?

u/FormerCollegeDJ Temple Owls Aug 28 '26

Well, for the first time since the delay started the scoreboard countdown clock has gotten under 20 minutes.

TOUCHDOWN ARGOS!!!

2

u/NS-13 Michigan Wolverines • Lehigh Mountain Hawks Aug 28 '26

If youre on defense with a minute 42 left, 2 timeouts, you need a stop and after the first down run they gain 2 but the starting guard loses his helmet.....

Do you really call a timeout and let him back in the game immediately?

Take the chance i say. Backup might be like my size 🤷‍♂️

7

u/I_like_race_cars Tarleton State Texans Aug 28 '26

Is it really chaos week if it's week 0???

5

u/Tufoguy Towson Tigers • Navy Midshipmen Aug 28 '26

I can not believe it.

Bad pass on 2nd down. That was a walk in touchdown. Horrible play call on 3rd down. Missed field goal to tie. Defense gets the stop. Dropped pass for a 20 yard gain then on the next play we fumble to ball.

We are starting the season 0-3. The next two games are at Navy and at South Carolina

5

u/JGR82 Maine Black Bears Aug 28 '26

Still undefeated! Not they ideal way to win a game, but they held on. Conference win. New QB looked pretty good in his first start. Better start to the season than last year.

3

u/Zloggt :chicagostate: Southern Illinois • Chicago S… Aug 28 '26

BAD pick…

Im on the phone with my friend while shes freaking out about her wedding this weekend I cant keep up while the score bugs showing me algebra

2

u/jmy74 Montana State Bobcats Aug 28 '26

I mean to be fair it was triple OT and the score bug wasn’t all that relevant at that point

1

u/NS-13 Michigan Wolverines • Lehigh Mountain Hawks Aug 28 '26

Last play i saw was a 4th and 12 situation, someone called timeout before the snap iirc.

Did they get a first down? TD? I cant hear the commentators so I kinda do need it lol.

Like I said, I was distracted. If I had working audio or video it would've been fine. I had NaN.

2

u/jmy74 Montana State Bobcats Aug 28 '26

I get you but in triple OT either the game is over or it’s not, the actual score on the score bug is irrelevant. And I’m definitely gonna agree that audio would have been very nice to have.

1

u/NS-13 Michigan Wolverines • Lehigh Mountain Hawks Aug 28 '26

I missed like 1 or 2 plays, I had no idea it was 3ot yet, yk?

If the score had been accurate, or if it had said, 1ot, 2ot, 3ot, I would've had a much better idea of what was going on.

Regardless, what you watching rn? Concord-davidson looks like it might be a banger pending this 4th down.

2

u/jmy74 Montana State Bobcats Aug 28 '26

I get you. In your defense the score bug did say 0:00 1stqt for all of OT now that I think about it. Watching SIU west Florida now

  3. Presby leads 17-16 over D2 UVA Wise
  4. St Thomas barely leads D2 Winona State
  5. Davidson down 38-28 to D2 Concord

It's literally the opening Thursday of the season

They can't annoy the rest of us in the playoffs for a few more years, so they'll be loveable underdogs for a while

u/GeneralAcorn Montana State • Boise State Aug 28 '26

TOUCHDOWN ARGOS!!!

This West Florida school is legit, but is Tarleton actually any good?

4

u/damnyoutuesday Montana State • Minnesota Aug 28 '26

West Florida looks legit

6

u/Tufoguy Towson Tigers • Navy Midshipmen Aug 28 '26

Can't wait for us to give them the Tarleton treatment this year

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

What do you mean? We know West Florida is good!

u/64stackdiamonds Montana State Bobcats • Oregon Ducks Aug 28 '26

They're a hell of a lot better than Southern Illinois, that's for sure

u/BalladeOnBlast East Texas A&M • Tulsa Aug 28 '26

Cutter Stewart, HCU QB, is having a day. 31-14 HCU, 1:55 in the 3rd.

u/SchuLace13 South Dakota State Jackrabbits Aug 28 '26

I get DJ Williams is out but I didn’t realize SIU’s entire defense was also out.

3

u/GeneralAcorn Montana State • Boise State Aug 28 '26

All of their OLine, too, as it would seem.

u/HellFireGrunt Central Arkansas Bears Aug 28 '26

Ok seriously though our field goals getting blocked have been an issue for years. 😐

2

u/SchizoidMan1989 Idaho Vandals • Washington Huskies Aug 28 '26

Okay Drake, what gives?

3

u/I_like_race_cars Tarleton State Texans Aug 28 '26

Time to see what west florida is really made of.

The 2nd half is almost always where the upset falls apart due to lack of depth.

5

u/HellFireGrunt Central Arkansas Bears Aug 28 '26

I love Omolo already. Damn it feels good to have a dual threat.

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

When he flashed his athleticism, my jaw dropped.

u/64stackdiamonds Montana State Bobcats • Oregon Ducks Aug 28 '26

Morehead's center is losing them this game

u/Tufoguy Towson Tigers • Navy Midshipmen Aug 28 '26

Billy Cosh and Stony Brook coming back 👀

34-27

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

Three ranked teams losing on opening night:

#16 Southern Illinois down to newcomer West Florida, 20-9 at half

#19 Southeastern down 24-7 to HCU in the 3rd

#22 Tennessee-Martin down 13-10 to UCA, but they’re on the doorstep

u/damnyoutuesday Montana State • Minnesota Aug 28 '26

Southeastern was 25.5 point favorites

The Saluki logo is so friendly. What a cute puppy

u/join_the_creed Montana State • Washington Sta… Aug 28 '26

What do you mean this thing is ferocious

5

u/BalladeOnBlast East Texas A&M • Tulsa Aug 28 '26

24-7 HCU over Southeastern 8:24 in the 3rd. 24 unanswered from the Huskies. Totally different ball game since HCU blocked a field goal.

8

u/MeanSawMcGraw HCU Huskies Aug 28 '26

As the single HCU diehard, i am elated.

u/GeneralAcorn Montana State • Boise State Aug 28 '26

You've been here for long enough. Talk your talk.

2

u/BalladeOnBlast East Texas A&M • Tulsa Aug 28 '26

After last season, man, y’all deserve positivity. Defense looks shaky, but y’all’s offense is looking good!

2

u/FormerCollegeDJ Temple Owls Aug 28 '26

Lafayette/Georgetown going into a lightning delay despite no lightning nearby based on the radar.

1

u/TimtheToolmanSailor Aug 28 '26

Any news when the game coming back on?

1

u/FormerCollegeDJ Temple Owls Aug 28 '26

Nope

I can see the scoreboard. Every time there’s a lightning strike 15 miles (or whatever fairly far distance) away, the clock resets to 30 minutes.

2

u/TimtheToolmanSailor Aug 28 '26

This is gonna take forever

u/I_like_race_cars Tarleton State Texans Aug 28 '26

Another year of complaining about ESPN+ not letting me create my own multiview

3

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

That’s honestly the only drawback.

I can tolerate the production quality.

1

u/join_the_creed Montana State • Washington Sta… Aug 28 '26

Isn't it like 90% of the time ESPN+ is using the schools production? Minus the Montana with MTN Sports broadcasts and the Dakotas with Midco, I don't know if other conferences (or even schools) have a broadcast deal for the ESPN+ broadcast.

u/tdpdcpa Lehigh Mountain Hawks • Patriot Aug 28 '26

I can’t give you exact figures, but a lot certainly are.

2

u/hman1500 Austin Peay Governors • Marching Band Aug 28 '26

Govs up 21-10 at the half. Some great deep passing really helping the cause.

u/Tufoguy Towson Tigers • Navy Midshipmen Aug 28 '26

West Georgia trick play alert!!!!!
