Custard got upset, Michigan got upset, O.J. is upset…but could the Tribe upset us???

I’m pretty sure most of the above that did not hurdle rows of airport seating for Hertz felt like they were gonna win before things got started. But W&M does have a few interesting things going for it…

  • #1 in D-1aa Passing Offense
  • #1 in D-1aa Scoring Offense
  • #2 in D-1aa Total Offense
  • #3 in D-1aa Passing Efficiency Offense

Obviously, this W&M Tribe has some sharp aerial weapons at their disposal. They also easily have the best Colonial Athletic Association offensive-line, which translates into one of the better OLine’s in all of D-1aa football. This OLine protects the highest rated Qb in all of D-1aa, as Mr. Jacob Phillips checks in at a rather tall 202.7 Qb Rating. That puts Mr. Phillips on pace for nearly a 4K passing this year! W&M plays a standard 4-3 defense, but they do have 3 sophomore starters upfront, and only 1 DLineman north of 260 lbs. So we should be able to spring B.Ore and Kenny Lewis Jr. for a few romps, which will help build the confidence of our much maligned Oline back up.

So could William & Mary pull the upset? I doubt it, but most doubted Appy.State a few weeks ago as well. I do suspect we win, and this just in, water is rumored to be wet. But I would not be surprised if W&M cracked the double-digit plateau. b-st.
