A Sea Of Red

I am planning on being there in Newark to see LU play Delaware on Friday but can't make it on Saturday. Is anyone else out there planning on going? I went 2 years ago and really liked what I saw but last year the games were cancelled due to heavy snow. Just look for the tall guy with the "LU Football" sweatshirt" and introduce yourself.

I wouldn't exactly call us bad. We are just not playing up to a level that we are used to in years past but it is understandable. I am still looking forward to seeing us play tonight even though the expectations are down from previous year's

We lost a ton of experience from last year (many to graduation) which I think affects things.

Yea it is hard to replace a class that was so good. Takes time. I still like our chances tonight and hopefully will give you a good report.

Just got back from the game. Terrible game, nothing at all what I was expecting. Lost 8-0. Seemed to do well in the first quarter with shots on goal being even and had numerous chances and then after that it was all downhill. Within 5 minutes a 1-0 lead turned into a 4-0 lead and then we kind of got down and we didn't seem to care. It was like we were just going through the motions and lost aggressiveness. U of D controlled the puck after the first period and it seemed like we were trapped and couldn't get out of our end of the rink. I can't say that I know enough about the sport to provide expert commentary but it was an embarrasement and I know that we can do better. Can't make it tomorrow due to plans but hopefully somehow tonight was just one of those fluke games and we pull out a win tomorrow.

Unfortunately Stevev, this seems to be a theme this year. Not sure why considering both the D2 and D3 teams are having very successful seasons so far.

Thanks for the update, stevev. Other teams better get their licks in now while they can.

It looks like we recovered to win the Saturday game 3-1 according to their website but unfortunately I was not there to see it. Just my bad luck I guess. I knew we weren't as bad as Friday's game indicated (Losing 8-0).
