Maybe the upset of the day…

Results:

Tampa beat Wingate 11-10 2OT
Rollins beat Adeplhi 14-12
Newberry beat Uindy 14-9
Limestone beat Lenoir Rhyne 10-9

The SAC will be interesting this year.

And, Last year! No conference has a top 3 like the SAC in Wingate, LR, and Stone. Add Newberry into the mix this year. That's a top 4 that is HARD to compete with.

Wait until you see this week's USILA rankings (should be published later this afternoon).

Wingate 11 - Newberry 9; good game all around. That is the 5th top 20 team Wingate has played so far.

For this weekend:

Friday 15 Mar
Westminster (RV) 12, Maryville (#14) 7

Saturday 16 Mar
Anderson (RV) 12, Lander (#20) 13
Limestone (#1) 24, Flagler (RV) 11
Roberts Wesleyan (RV) 11, Mercy (#6T) 12
Indianapolis (#10) 11, Rollins (#2) 7
Bentley (#9) 9, Adelphi (#5) 12
Tampa (#4) 17, Colorado Mesa (#16) 12

Two upsets in the top 20 this weekend. Westminster over Maryville, and the big one Indy over Rollins…

I don't see Westminster over Maryville as an upset really. Not a knock against Maryville, but Westminster has been undervalued in the rankings for a couple of years in my opinion.

A few tasty matchups this week:
Tonight
Florida Southern vs Colorado Mesa

Saturday
Newberry vs Limestone
Wingate vs LR
Tampa vs Rollins

And I'll even throw in Maryville vs Montevallo. Montevallo has been up and down, so will depend on what Montevallo team shows up.

Sunday
Colorada Mesa vs Westminster

Good summary of the upcoming games!

Down goes UIndy in OT to unranked Rockhurst

Down goes Florida Southern in OT to Embry-Riddle

Some other interesting scores from yesterday: Hurst by one over Seton Hill, and LR 15, Newberry 10. The Wolves keep scoring against the best defenses. If they can figure out a better D against the big teams they could have some upsets of their own...

Embry-Riddle has a good thing going. Anybody who knows John Jez, what he's about and how he coaches; should not be shocked to see the program turning things around....and he still doesn't have any of his recruits there yet.

Keep an eye on them. HUGE week coming up.

Good call. ERU lost to Tampa last night 18-14.

Tied 12-12 early in the 4th. Think they could surprise some teams in conference tourney/be a top 4 team in the SSC. Pretty amazing he doesn't have one of his own recruits yet. Definitely will be checking out their next game vs Florida Tech.

16-14 loss to a Florida Tech team that has played a SCHEDULE this year. ERAU was up 13-9 going into the 4th. ERAU will still likely make SSC playoffs as the conference has moved to a 6-team tournament this year

AIC held tough against St. A's last night for having the coach dismissed midyear. Was up 10-9 going into the 4th.
