Actually, I don't think either Shepherd or Kutztown are as good as they were last year, but nobody else in the East stepped forward at all to challenge them. Shippensburg is young with injuries mounting up and noticeably worse than last season, West Chester was a somewhat surprising disappointment, and East Stroudsburg could not bring big wins home. Bloomsburg struggled, and Lock Haven has been a continuing disaster. Only Millersville really seemed to show much improvement, and they've been so far below the mark that they're going to have to come up a lot more to challenge the big boys. They did give Kutztown a tussle this week.

I think the Rams play the last two weeks has been outstanding. They seem to be peeking at the right time. I know the competition hasn’t been stellar, but they are taking care of business.
With loses by IUP and Ashland, it is a no brainer they will be ranked first in the region unless they rank them in alphabetical order again.

I don't think Kutztown is good. I think Shepherd is definitely better on defense. The offense is maybe not as explosive, but it's rounding out well.

Not saying that Shepherd isn't a good team, just that they haven't had a lot of pushback from most of the rest of the division. I shudder to think how bad the East would be this year if Shepherd hadn't replaced Cheyney a couple of seasons back.
The West Chester game last week reminded me a lot of the 2015 game Shep played against Fairmont. Both were above average teams, Shep playing thenm on the road and dominating.
This team is playing solid defense and that is what we lacked last year. Stay healthy and we can go deep in the playoffs.

If you have it, Bagent will throw for 500 yards and 6-7 TDs.

But, unless some miracle happens with the IUP defense, it won't matter much anyway. They have talent but are so undisciplined they are hard to watch at times. Skilled QBs, well, we saw yesterday.

That's really probably IUP's only prayer in that game ... the fact Shepherd hasn't been remotely tested in 6 weeks leading in to the State Game.

I agree. You have reason to worry after Saturday's game. Gannon is improved this season, but there's no way I saw them doing that to IUP.
Assuming the State Game is between Shep and IUP, look for an interesting contest. IUP has to make some adjustments. You always do after a loss.

I think it's more likely that yesterday was an anomaly for IUP. The defense is better than that. I don't know what happened but if you look at Tort's pre-game concerns it was an iffy situation from the get-go.
