    Frostburg travels across two states to face GMAC foe Kentucky Wesleyan

    Less than 48 hours later, the MEC has another slate of four games:

    Notre Dame brings in a cross state foe in the GMAC's Ashland
    UNCP travels to Winston Salem for their annual lid lifter against the CIAA foe
    MEC newcomer AB makes a long road trip to battle PSAC's Mercyhurst

    For reference, MEC has scheduled four PSAC foes, three from the GMAC, one from the CIAA and one D1.

      A three year old startup program is now better than ours. Just embarrassing

        Amazing, Wheeling University, 700 enrollment strong, and a start up program is ranked higher than WL.

          People generally live up and down to their employers expectations. Clearly with regard to football, there is no expectation of winning...Heck, not even an expectation to put a mediocre team on the field. So the HC and long time staff live down to those expectations. It is a WHOLE lot less work putting a bad team on the field that it is to put a good one on it.

              In looking at the conference By-Laws, I don't see any restriction on a new member wining a conference title.

                    By and large, these preseason coaches polls are little more than a rehash of last seasons standings mixed with a small degree of coach's predijuices.

                      You know Coach Fitz will use this as motivation for his team. He pretty much hinted just that during his interview at Media Day.
