I was at the game where they walloped the out of Army a couple of years ago.

That season is distant memory. No trace of that wonderful team from a few years back. We lost several key players including Miguel Maysonet (RB), Kyle Essignton (QB), Michael Bamiro, Dominick Reyes and several others I can't remember. That was the best team SBU has assembled in my years as a fan and we are not even close to that right now
 
Fair enough - I will expand on my original OP.

I would like to see an opponent equal to us at this point in the season. A team like Temple comes to mind. You imply that this team needs a shot of confidence at this point in the season. I don't think that lack of confidence from the players is a problem at this point. Casey and HCBD were very upbeat in the after game press conference. Yes, beating Stony Brook by 40 points (I will stand by that prediction) may make the fans and players feel good but I don't think the quick dose of confidence will be worth anything down the road. Learning from their mistakes and standing head to toe with a worthwhile opponent is what is needed here.

After one game a team = to UConn at this point in the season is Temple? Hmmm. You giving me Vandy plus 30 if we played them next week, I'd take it.
 
I disagree. A win is very important, no matter the caliber of opponent.

I was at that game as well... Stonybrook looked real good. I joked with one of the cadets that they would have an easier time with BC the following week, which Army beat.
 
@NHRJimFuller: #UConn game to be a homecoming for Stony Brook coach Chuck Priore, who went 31-1 in final 4 seasons at Trinity http://post original url/f3fP8Tk1WU
 
To those who think we beat Stony Brook by 40, I am curious to hear where you think those 40 points will be scored. I can see a 17-7 win without too much trouble, but 40 points? Our O-Line isn't good enough to do what we used to do to these teams, which is run all over them. Our passing game isn't developed enough to really drive the ball quickly down the field.

We win this thing with execution, running the ball, solid defense and minimal mistakes. It's going to have to take good execution to get it done, because we just don't have any one talent to hang our hat on other than playing our best possible game.

HI!

How are you doing?
I am doing great. I will state the obvious had Cochran played and hit half the receivers that Wittmer missed, we would have doubled our score.

So I still stand by my original posts. A worthlesss game for all involved!

This was an eye opener for me but even though I did not expect great things this first year, we are really really bad thanks to Coach P.

Didn't think I come back, did you?
 
OOOPS Whitmer not Wittmer in case you were wondering who I was referring to.
 
Your original post predicted 300 yards rushing. Still stand by that?
