Backs, backs, backs. English and Mancuso are at heart running backs. You can’t continue to win games

With running. You’ve got to pass. Go Spiders. English and Mancuso are at heart running backs. What we need is a good quarterback. I realize you don’t get a Lauletta everyday.

If true, then it will be a long season. We have yet to see BE start a game so way too early to tell on him but the coaches are certainly treating him like a running back. At times during the scrimmages this year and the Jacksonville game, JM looked like he did last year. As someone else said, the plan with him appears to be a powerback. Let’s see how they both look vs. Elon. BC will be a blood bath.

Just hope we come out of BC without season ending injuries.
 
Back in the '90s we played 2 FBS schools: UVA and Vandy.
2001 and we lost our entire starting lineup from a solid team that made the playoffs the year before. Almost won both games and the refs screwed us vs Uva. Didn’t Cutler play in that game vs Vandy?

don't know about Cutler, but you're right about the "robbery" that took place in C-Ville...

prior to the infamous CBI basketball game it was the best example of the Spiders getting hosed in C-Ville

believe it was a late pass interference call which was a spot foul at that time?...

think it may have been the Saturday before the 9/11 attacks...

Go Spiders!

Oddly I believe Reid was our coach that game. The pass interference calls were absolutely ridicules. I remember leaving that game with a smile on my face because I knew we deserved the win but the officials simply weren't going to let that happen.
 
I recall a UVA friend apologizing to me for that game. He said they called back a TD for us saying he stepped out of bounds, my friend said the point was right in front of him, our player was at least one foot in bounds.
