Colgate can win, but they have to have a very good game. They will be able to run and eat clock, if Melville can keep FU's defense honest with connects to his very good receivers when necessary. As Biddle once said, we are going to run the ball until they stop us, then we'll pass. The real challenge will be for Colgate's defense. Obviously, they have to control Edmonds. Keep him to around 120 yards should do it. Home game, must win, family weekend, decent weather, long home absence, rested team is a perfect recipe for winning. We have seen Colgate prevail in games like this many times. It is Colgate football at its best. Go 'gate!

Colgate | Fordham [who looks better]

Offense for Wins: 25 | 46 [FU]
Defense for Wins: 16 | 32 [CU]

Offense for Loses: 17 | 7 [CU]
Defense for Loses: 32 | 14 [FU]

Prediction (based on optimism and heart): 31-28 Colgate.

We win as:

Hunt and co. make smart play calls that eat up ToP, move the ball into the redzone on 80+% of possessions, and score from the red zone on 75+% of possessions.

2:1 turnover differential in Colgate's favor.

Nothing stupid happens on special teams + we hit field goals when needed.

(I'm afraid to mention 4th down choices and execution...)

From my perspective, this game is the barometer by which this season is measured.

LET'S GO GATE!!!!

My coffee-fueled optimism wasn't too far off ;-).
