Keep up the great coverage of the PSAC!! BTW, the Pioneers gained almost 500 yards of offense against ESU, meaning both teams combined for over 1,300 yards of offense...I'm sure both defenses were gassed by the end of that game.

Mercyhurst/Cal is just as big a game as Bloomsburg/Shippensburg yesterday, and even if Lalich returns for Cal next week, there's no guarantee he's @ 100%. Should be a heck of a contest...The only rankings that mean anything are in two weeks...Good luck to all!!

You're right, WarrorVoice. Its not a match up of two undefeated and ranked teams so it won't get as much attention, but it will determine who represents the West in the championship game. I'm selfishly hoping for a Mercyhurst victory. The two best units in the PSAC are Shippensburg's offense and IUP's defense. It would be a great thing for the PSAC for those two teams to meet for the championship.

Should IUP v SHIP take place, I gotta say IUP is built for late season, bad weather, playoff football. Combined Nine turnovers in ship v bloom game with perfect weather has me favoring IUP defense over a great, but vulnerable ship offense that can't really run the ball.
