Slaughter

I like it when the Flyers step up a level of competition, but this is a step too far. The Salukis are making the Flyers look like a bad high school team. Too small, too slow. At this point, I’ll take a lone field goal just to keep alive the streak of no shutouts.

That's the chance you take when you step up. In a way it's a throwaway game for us. Would like to see us be competitive but looks likethat won't happen. Next game will be interesting as the Blue Hose have averaged about 74 points a game, but the competition has been very weak. They play the Camels tonight so we will see how that goes. Update. Hose behind 56-zip in the 3d quarter.

Gave up 658 total yards. Lick our wounds and take out our frustration in PFL.

PFL played 5 games against top 25 teams and got waxed in every one. Presbyterian gave up 72 against the Camels. On the bright side Butler beat Little Sisters of the Poor and scored 77.

Congratulations to the Flyers

for earning $100,000 in a "Buy" game against a much stronger opponent.

Forgive my ignorance, but I see that FCS schools can have up to 63 players on scholarship, but I can't find a listing of FCS schools with no scholarships. I know the PFL is non scholarship, but are there some schools with more than zero and less than 63 scholarships?

The Flyers were outmatched against SIU. One graphic showed their line averaged 304 lbs while UD averaged 246.

According to Hauschild's post-game press release, it was the worst beating in 100 years and fewest points scored since the 1987 DIII Playoffs.

National Rankings

It has been mentioned that SIU is ranked in the top ten among FCS teams (i.e.AA). That's not the whole story though.

Jeff Sagarin ranks all A and AA teams together. There are 258 such schools with FBS and FCS considered as a single group, 130 As and 128 AAs. After Saturday's games SIU is ranked 4th among FCS schools (AA). But among FBS and FCS combined SIU is ranked 102nd....,meaning that SIU is ranked above 28 FBS programs, i.e., As. The Miami of Oh is ranked 103 at the moment.

There is much overlap between FBS and FCS. On Saturday UD didn't just play a a top ranked scholarship FCS school. The Flyers played a school that ranks relatively highly among all scholarship programs...FBS and FCS combined.

Now stop and imagine how Miami OH would do against Alabama. Now stop and imagine how Alabama would do against the KC Chiefs. Each step is about the same distance apart!

We are good at what we do at the level we compete at. SIU was a big step up.As a side note, Bama wouldn't do well against the Chiefs but they might give my Lions a run for their money, (kidding )
