funny you mention that dagger 3 pointer - in real time, I was wondering how tf the guy just held the ball up top until 9s on the shot clock and a guy 1 pass away on the wing - with no other screening action or anything to free him up - was wiiiiide open. I honestly don't even remember the ball handler driving, I thought he just saw a guy open because we were hedging early and had sloughed off that guy, and that guy caught the ball and drilled the 3. Maybe Pascarelli was dribbling but I don't recall a drive and kick. Agree, was horrible defense.

If sman has acceess to the clip as well, would like to review this one as well.

This link should take you right to the start of that play, and you were correct there was no drive required 😳:

2024 Richmond Spiders Football - Opponents Countdown - Hampton

Their ability to run the ball against our good, but beat up Dline will be a problem. We could not stop Campbell's running game. Campbell's passing game wasn't as strong as ours.
In contrast Campbell stopped our running game. Cam Coleman was a very consistent passer.

We also had a chance to put them away early, when Traynor intercepted the ball on Campbell's 23 yard line. ZPS turned around and fumbled the ball back on their 3 yard line after 3 plays.

'24-'25 Spiders Friends and Family

Tuesday performances...

- Aidan Noyes: Belmont was down 79–72 to Lipscomb with 1:22 to play and came back to win it, 80–79. Aidan played 21 minutes off the bench but wasn't much of a factor as he went scoreless on two shots and had 3 boards and a steal.
- Curtis Blair: 13 minutes off the bench with just 5 points as Liberty cruised over NAIA Carolina University.
- Trevor Smith: 11 points in 14 minutes off the bench including 3-for-6 from deep as Hampton led Providence at the half before the Friars took over.

2024 Richmond Spiders Football - Opponents Countdown - Hampton

I am more worried about this game than the William and Mary game. Hampton is a solid program and will be motivated to go out with a win on senior night against a top 10 opponent in Richmond. We’re going to have to bring our A game this week.
Some say every win closer to the Championship goal gets tougher to get. The Spiders find themselves in this situation. I agree we will likely get the Pirates and Indians best efforts, just like we got Campbell’s. I’m worried about both games, but am still believing we can find a way to the Championship.

The Spiders have owned November since the 2021 season. It’ll be a great battle the next two weeks! I think we can!

Go Spiders!

Lol. That meltdown was completely warranted. That call cost us the game, an A-10 tourney game. It is rare when you can say the official cost you the game, but that is the only UR game I can recall in my memory where you could legit say that.
That call was talked about in a lot of national sports media the next day, it was bad enough to make national news

The Trump Administration

Letting a convicted felon run the country is indeed insanity. But of course, he alone can fix all of the perceived problems in the country, so I look forward to him doing just that. Unclear why he couldn't do any of that the first time he had the chance, but clearly the second time will be much different.
Your Buddy F'ed about everything he inherited - border security, inflation, peace abroad. The record is the record. Some can't see it because hatred has overcome rationality. Oh, but he was the 14th best Prez ever. :)

BTW The felony convictions are ludicrous. Will never stand. They too were driven by irrational hatred which the electorate recognized.

I admit Pete Hegseth as SecDef is a head scratcher, but he will be a darn sight better than Lloyd Austin, the hero and architect of the defense of Hamid Karzai International Airport. Let's not forget his top General Milley, who ordered all of our troops to take DEI training.

Remember, on August 29 Gen. Milley ordered a hellfire missile attack that killed 10 aide workers. Milley called it a righteous action. The army called it a tragic mistake.

Biden had two buffoons running our army.

Women's: @Fairfield - Tues 11/12 7pm: ESPN+

What a fantastic win! Spiders beat a Fairfield team - who beat Arkansas by 14 and who had 11 votes in AP poll - 62-39. Combination of great defense and Fairfield having an off shooting night. Incredible start to the season with wins at Temple and at Fairfield. Likely 2 Q2 games, maybe Q1 with Fairfield. Also the fact that we’ve done it without Alston makes it even more impressive. I sound like a broken record, but Roussell is an amazing coach. I hope we’re giving him all the resources he wants and needs.
