2024 Richmond Spiders Football - Prologue - Lehigh

[mojo-spider]

The Sheriff just gave me a list of things to do before more company arrives...I don't have much more time for the Spiders today...hoping it's a great holiday for all fans especially Spiders' football fans...what a great season it's been following this special team that just finds a way to win every week!

as someone said weeks ago the closer you get to the goal the tougher every win gets...I have no doubt Lehigh will give us all they have...Coach Huesman said the Hawks remind him of us...that makes them pretty good doesn't it?

I like both Richmond interior lines to decide this one at the line of scrimmage...it probably won't be a pretty as W&M, but as my good Spider friend says "just enough" to take this team one step closer to the ultimate goal!

enjoy the Prologue with two special guest fans!

pass the pecan pie!

Go Spiders!

 

[Gallipoli]

Thanks Satchmo. Your enthusiasm is catching.

 

[gcarter52]

Always look forward to your prologues.

 

[Gallipoli]

The grand children were wonderful. It was a nice touch this time.

 

[KE Spider]

Even or plus on TOs and line play as good as against W&M, Spiders ain't losing.

See you fellow fan(atics) tomorrow. Go Spiders!

Don't forget all Fr are now eligible to play.

 

[GKiller]

Don't forget all Fr are now eligible to play.

Could be a non frosh who was redshirting although I have no idea if we have any of those (tho Coleman was originally planned). Normally they r Fr.

Just curious which players got the redshirt who might now be a contributor for us in playoffs? Hopefully we have 1 or 2.

 

[Gallipoli]

Have we had a chance to heal along the D-line?

 

[CarolinaSpider]

We are thin along both lines and best thing we can do is win the time of possession .
The Lehigh area is where we use to recruit in the SoCon years, usually lineman and lbs.

 

[Gallipoli]

Good start so far. ZPS just made a 10 yard run, with an additional 20 yard tush push by the O-line. The trenches will be crucial.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Hope the Lehigh guy is okay.

 

[DTSpider]

Hope the Lehigh guy is okay.

Couldn’t tell what happened but stretcher is never a good thing. Hopefully just being ultra cautious. Certainly hope for a speedy and full recovery.

 

[Gallipoli]

So far, we are controlling the line of scrimmage.

 

[Gallipoli]

Couldn’t tell what happened but stretcher is never a good thing. Hopefully just being ultra cautious. Certainly hope for a speedy and full recovery.

The injured was their star MLB. I didn't see movement. He was Matt Spatny.

 

[SpiderRick]

Gun, meet foot

 

[DTSpider]

I actually believe it was Spatny, who is a DE and leads the nation in sacks. He’s a junior so hopefully we’ll see him on the field for the season opener next year.

 

[Gallipoli]

Score 3-0, there were a lot of false starts.

 

[Gallipoli]

INT by Jabril Hayes, 1st and 10.

 

[SpiderRick]

Nice int, now I want to see them spread the field some

 

[SpiderRick]

Do we have to run up the middle on EVERY first down?
SPREAD THE FIELD

 

[Gallipoli]

So far we have a balanced attack. Our guys are dropping open passes.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Who the frick dropped that touchdown in the end zone?

 

[SpiderRick]

I don't like them running Coleman much but he's been effective.

 

[SpiderRick]

I don't like them running Coleman much but he's been effective.

Thanks for listening

 

[Gallipoli]

Yikes. Nova and New Hampshire are losing.

 

[Gallipoli]

Who the frick dropped that touchdown in the end zone?

Griffin has dropped two.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Bench his sorry ass

 

[Gallipoli]

Hint- don't run Coleman.

 

[SpiderRick]

We won't get far in the playoffs if we can't score touchdowns in the red zone

 

[Gallipoli]

Rhody won 21-17. It was closer than we thought.

 

[Gallipoli]

We are making dumb penalties. There was a roughing the passer.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

Not gonna lie, Huesman is being outclassed yet again. No way we beat Idaho if we can’t finish:

 

[Philaspidur]

Yikes. Nova and New Hampshire are losing.

CAA Champion Rhode Island won though.

 

[DTSpider]

red zone offense has been ineffective all year. Eventually it may cost us.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

The class of the CAA…Rhode Island😂😂😂😂😂

 

[SpiderRick]

There's going to be a lot of embarrassed anti-Patriot lLeague people here if we lose this game.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

This doesn’t indicate the Patriot is strong, but rather Russ is weak and a perennial loser.

 

[Gallipoli]

Touchdown Lehigh. It's now 7-6.

 

[DTSpider]

Let’s see if we can steal some points here before halftime. Especially with kicking the ball away for the 2nd half. We did a lot right but haven’t made the big plays.

 

[Dr. Spidey]

What a loser waisting 3 seconds for field goal instead of trying for endzone. WTF
