UWF thread 2020

We needed a kicker so we went out and got an FCS All-American from Tennessee State. Antonio Zita, whose accuracy enabled him to set the school record for field goals made in a season will join the Argos. The Tennesee Tribune announced earlier that the Tigers will be losing one of their most reliable offensive weapons. Zita made 3 of 4 between 40 and 49 yards and was 1 of 1 from 50. Yeah, uh, we'll take that guy!

Can't wait to see this UWF offense this fall (hopefully, we get to). Very exciting to see some of the talent we are bringing to the panhandle!

Are you really thinking West Florida isn't going to be one of the elite D2 football teams for a very long time to come? I would say West Florida and Valdosta is kind of the new Alabama and Clemson of D2 football. Every year you know those are the 2 teams and others will come and go. Argos aren't going anywhere and West Georgia won't beat West Florida for a very very long time. 2018 was your last time for that.

With all of this stay at home time available I decided to look at the playoff records of all title game participants in all divisions for the 4 years that the Argos have been playing football to see how their record compares. Quite well, in fact, with the Argos one of 9 teams that have played two or more times in the title game and one of three teams with only one playoff loss in 10 or more playoff games. The list that follows is arranged by number of playoff wins and I have included FBS conference championship games as a playoff win or loss.

Mary Hardin-Baylor (D3) 16-2, 2-1
N.Dakota St. (FCS) 14-1, 3-0
Mount Union (D3) 13-3, 1-1
Morningside (NAIA) 11-2, 2-0
James Madison (FCS) 11-3, 1-2
Ferris St. (D2) 11-4, 0-1
St. Francis (IN) (NAIA) 10-2, 2-0

Maybe we will play again this year for both teams have a great team coming back.

Agreed! If we meet up again that only means good things for both schools. I was hoping you'd take the bait on Austin Reed being better than everyone in the NFL. I'm missing sports and needed a sports debate.

I wish LR and the defending National Champions, the University of West Florida Argonauts played every year. Great game and both schools have awesome home-field environments. Dugger won't see anyone as good as Austin Reed at the next level so I think Dugger will have a great career.
