Deep pockets list of games is amazing. Top 20 lists will start to look a lot more accurate. Those match ups are for real (could they be better?) and will tell us much about the season. Alas, I will be at the York Stevenson game with my sons, so I will miss most of these other great games. At least ...

OMG that's hilarious.

I'm sleeping and I'm sleeping good

Not this coming weekend but St. Lawrence is supposed to scrimmage Middlebury 2/22

Everyone has Union NY too high. They lost some important pieces. IMO they are
the most overrated team this preseason but everyone seems to love them.

I'm sure a similar case could be made for the middle of the NESCAC, Liberty, or ODAC. For sure someone from NESCAC that hasn't been there in a few years will. They are due. Liberty has had plenty in the top 20 lately. I'd like to see a Middlebury, or a Bowdoin really pushing the competition in the ...

Best is hard to define. There are stats for winning percentage but strength of opponent is crucial to determine much... Malamphy in my opinion is the most valuable FoGo in D3. He takes a lot more face-offs than anyone in the Top 10 of winning percentage and gets playoff action which is the ultimate ...

We get to ridicule the pollsters? And have nothing substantive to offer

oh yeah

US lacrosse magazine staff pre-season rankings not really taken seriously by
anyone to be honest. Ask coaches who are on the real committee about it and
they will chuckle.

.....Solution is starting season two weeks later, universally. Better chance of avoiding freezing weather and games that no one wants to attend - fans or players. Make up for it by scheduling mid-week games. Every team plays a couple of Tuesday evening games throughout the season. Great for fans to...

I agree, Dehuntshigwa'es (cool name by the way), and would group W&L with some other good, solid D3 programs in the South who have recently seen their realistic chances of breaking through come and go (at least for the time being): Gettysburg, Lynchburg, W&L and Denison. Absolutely! Great p...

Williams has genius level coaching, defense and a lot of return players. York is my sleeper but they have to
really outscore Salisbury in that one regular season game.

I like the Red this year

In my humble opinion any OOC team that beats Williams is going to get a big bump. They are so well coached on defense so Union and RPI did a nice job getting them on the slate. Tigers schedule remains a mystery. I sure hope they play Cortland and also Amherst again. Either way it's going to be a fun...

Cortland is underrated. Numerous Liberty League teams should have scheduled them.

In addition it takes away a lot of ability to prepare for the next opponent from a coaching standpoint.
It's just too intense on so many levels for players and coaches

Anyone know the Tigers schedule or Union? I can't find them

Losing the NESCAC games who knows. Maybe they tried and just couldn't find teams where
it fit both schools this year once they committed to Mustang
