2024 Richmond Spiders Football - Opponents Countdown - Hampton

[mojo-spider]

after last season's embarrassing loss to the Pirates in our CAA opener, I'm glad we get them in a late November battle which could have significant CAA Championship and FCS Playoff implications for the Spiders...

no matter what kind of season the Pirates are having, many of their players will bring the confidence of their dominating 2023 win onto the field at Armstrong Stadium...if the Spiders need any additional incentive to stay focused, motivated and winning their memories of getting slam dunked by these guys should be perfect tonic for some important payback!

Richmond has not lost in the three previous meetings at Armstrong Stadium...on CAA Media Day interim head coach Trenton Boykin, who replaced Robert Prunty after spring camp, expressed his believe that this could be the best Hampton team since he arrived as an HU assistant in 2020...he attributes a lot of this to experience...the Pirates bring back a lot, particularly on offense where the sole Pirate on the All CAA Preseason team RB Elijah Burriss will lead the way behind an offensive line that Boykin describes as getting bigger, stronger and faster since last season...

former Richmond linebacker Xavier Marshall will play a significant role in Hampton's defense...

the Pirates were picked to finish 12th in the 16 team conference in the CAA Media Day preseason poll...

payback game, or not, this is a late November road game against an opponent that the Spiders have to defeat...you can't defend a Championship, or earn a Playoff spot, without winning games like this one!

enjoy the Countdown!

Go Spiders!

A jekyll and hyde team. They too are better than their record. We will have our hands full. Need to contain their QB and score when we have opportunities. And remember what happened last year.

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.

Get on the internet and look at the size of their players wearing the 60's and 70's lineman jerseys. We BETTER bring our A game.

Just go to #10 post above on this thread.It’s all there.

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!

Speed is more important than size in my view. Everyone has 300 pounders, even at DII level. Don't see their size as a pivotal factor in this game.

They are a worthy opponent and expect a hard fought game, but line size unlikely to be a deciding factor IMO.

Go Spiders!

 

[Gallipoli]

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.

I am more worried about our depth and injury status.

what happened to DeGennaro during Campbell game? He is out. But Gouveia the OL will back this week. Those were 2 specifically asked about in Huesman presser.

It looked like he rolled his ankle. He tried to come back in, but he couldn't.

 

[urfan1]

11 on 2 deep, but understand ankle may be issue.

The 2 deep isn't accurate. Huesman flat out said he's not playing.

 

[KE Spider]

It looked like he rolled his ankle. He tried to come back in, but he couldn't.

This is an injury recurrence from which he already missed a game or two. Better to give him time to heal than risk losing him for the season (playoffs hopefully) by playing him v Hampton. Receiver coup remains strong without him, but obviously he is a great loss.

 

[Eight Legger]

I'm sure our team is taking Hampton very seriously. But as a fan, meh. They're 5-5. I'm not going to waste a lot of time worrying about them. We're a better team, and we should win the game.

Hampton carried Rhode Island to OT and then lost by two-points and played Nova to six points.
JMO but you are dead on about how good Hampton is. This will not likely be easy, as shown by last year's result.

Sure it can. Need to bring our A game. If we do we'll be okay.
