2024 Richmond Spiders Football - Opponents Countdown - Campbell

[mojo-spider]

the Fighting Camels will host the Spiders in beautiful Buies Creek, NC...years ago now, I played a lot of golf on their University owned golf course, Keith Hills...I never dreamed we'd be playing Campbell in a November football game that should have CAA Championship and FCS Playoff implications

Campbell was the best of the 2023 CAA newcomers at 4-4 in the conference...you may recall the Spiders trounced them 44-13 by scoring 28 unanswered 4th quarter points at The Brick House...the 4th quarter collapse was indicative of the Camels defense last season...one of new head coach Braxton Harris' focal points with his defense has been to "flip" the 4th quarter from last seasons' 105-68 deficit...

Harris' new Offensive Coordinator will be looking to find a QB that can lead a talented and experienced group of RBs and a potentially good offensive line...

on CAA Media Day Campbell was picked to finish 11th in the 16 team conference...

the Spiders won some very tough November road games last season...this one figures to be another real test...its probably Campbell's last shot at Richmond in Buies Creek...Richmond better be ready for a battle in this must win game...

if you're traveling to Campbell and get there early enough you might be able to slip in 18 holes before your tailgate...

enjoy the Countdown!

Go Spiders!

I believe that CAMPBELL has the record for the worst lost in college football. About 100 years ago. Lol

Thanks for doing these talks, Mojo. The surf put me to sleep.

You should publish your talks on a sleep app. You can make a fortune putting people to sleep. I played it again- my wife and our dog fell into a deep sleep. Amazing.

Thanks for the link to coach's 32counter.

Listening to Campbell coach made me go look at their Box Score vs Elon for last Saturday.
Their backup QB threw for 355 yards versus Elon going 22 of 39. He also ran it for net 51 more.
Two separate receivers had over 100 yards as well.

Elon put up 50 points on them, but special teams put defense in terrible situations allowing 44.7 yards per return on 3 kickoffs.

They look better on offense than their record reflects.
Elon also had a big day offensively, however.

special teams put defense in terrible situations allowing 44.7 yards per return on 3 kickoffs.

Almost unbelievable stat.

Jerry Garcia and Veney must be licking their chops.

Go Spiders
