Elon - CAA

Unread post by WVAPPeer » Tue Nov 05, 2013 1:32 pm

they will host New Hampshire, Richmond, Maine and Stony Brook and travel to Delaware, Towson, W&M and James Madison ---

And they are struggling in the SoCon --- No Western Carolinas in that bunch - wait they lost to WCU as well

They won't have as many visiting fans for all their home games combined as App brought for one.

Personally, I would not mind it if Elon lost ALL their games for the next 5 years...starting Saturday.

Don't worry - they will not be pre-printing conference championship posters anytime soon :o

I actually think that's a pretty good home schedule for them. We won't play them again so I wish them all the best.

yes it is - and since I'm so close by and have a friend in athletics (free tickets) I will probably attend some of those games - I've never seen UNH play - unfortunately I've seen Maine twice :(

I have to admit I was one of the dreamers that had hoped for the formation of an FCS super conference that would later become a new FBS conference. So I like that CAA schedule. We will have a good home schedule in 2015 but next year is a little bit blah to be honest.

I was as well - and since that never happened, if we had not gotten an invite to the SB I would have hoped we would have done exactly what Elon did ---

Their website will probably have that screen that says they are CAA Conference Champions like they did a few years ago...a bit prematurely. :?:

I had to look up what this "Elon" is that you speak of. According to Webster's: Elon is a white soluble powder used as a photographic developer.
