So should I guess it would be an opener from the years before Willman enrolled? That would suggest UAlbany or Maryland, but UAlbany is closer to Hartford and Maryland is not the tri-state area. Maybe I am slow, but I am stumped

I believe BRW was sitting with/near the Willman's at the Monmouth game. But that wasn't an opener - except for being an NIT opener.

It is if you're talking about the Delmarva.
Or, strangely enough, if you're watching NCIS and they're talking about the Washington area. Annoyingly enough to me, locals are starting to call it the DMV but for some reason the NCIS writers refer to it as the "Tri-State Area". I suppose they're ex-DC residents longing for statehood.

It means if you're 99% sure of the opponent then the horse has effectively been led to water and you bent down and took a drink! Let me make it 100...Joe was sitting with you also...Got it?
My max "sure of" on any topic is usually 99%...you had me at "the Wilman's" but your latest hint pushes me up to 99.8%.

He didn't say we opened with this team, he said it was similar to a previous opener.

I am sorry I get snippy. I was anxious for some epic scoop that the Bison would be playing Bloomsburg wearing throwback uniforms!

HC - we all have our oars in the water the same way. It's about helping the program. I'm equally as snippy but I can assure you over the long term I've got alligator skin. Apologies I'm responding to your response to BUF. Think everyone is the same in having our fingers crossed we stay healthy and get a great result again this year. Best regards. OB

This could be a very special year. The level we played at in the WVU game still amazes me. This may be as athletically gifted a unit we have ever had.

I think Old Bison's guessing game approach should be universally adopted by posters who get early scoop on non-conference opponents. Fine off-season entertainment.

Maybe,just maybe, next seasons ooc schedule will feature a game in a state/city closer to Bison 137, than Lewisburg!

Anyone know the dates for the PL playoffs this season? I'm supposed to go to a conference March 7-9 but just realized that might conflict with the championship game. Might have to rethink this conference.

I was afraid of that. There are no guarantees we make the final or will host it, but I'll still need to factor that into my plans. Conference is in Baltimore, so it's conceivable I could drive back to Lewisburg Wed for the game and make it back to the conference Thu morning.
