according to the governor's press conference today at 2pm, guidelines for attendance effective april 1st will be 30%. should open the brickhouse to around 2400 for the JMU game
 
Mathis is talented, young, and getting better, but how fast? From what I have seen , he has a ways to go. Somewhat above pedestrian now, but great upside potential. If JMU loses, not feeling Mathis will be the reason.

Game notes:
W&M |




CAA: No. 11 Delaware (2-0) at No. 18 Rhode Island (2-0), noon (FloSports)

After finishing 0-8 in the CAA in 2019, Rhode Island has opened with two straight overtime wins on the road against ranked opponents (Villanova and Albany). Meanwhile, Delaware has allowed zero and three points in its wins, which is exactly what the Blue Hens did in their 2010 FCS runner-up season. They've forced seven turnovers and will likely attack with running backs Dejoun Lee and Khory Spruill because URI's rush defense was by far the CAA's worst in 2019 and is allowing nearly six yards per carry this season. Rams transfer quarterback Kasim Hill has rushed for the winning score in both overtime wins. Speaking of OT, Delaware won 44-36 in three extra periods in the 2019 matchup at URI.

Dejoun Lee ran for a career-high 221 yards and two touchdowns on 22 carries to lead #11/9 Delaware (3-0, 3-0 CAA) to a 35-21 road victory at #18/21 Rhode Island in a battle of the top two teams in the North Division. The Blue Hens piled up 551 yards of total offense, including 361 on the ground, and controlled the ball for 41:34.

In addition to Lee's big day on the ground, Khory Spruill picked up 88 yards on 15 carries. Quarterback Nolan Henderson also had a great day, completing 17-of-22 passes for 190 yards and 2 TD's. Rhode Island (2-1, 2-1 CAA) was led offensively by backup quarterback Brandon Robinson, who ran for 43 yards and 2 TD's and also threw for 85 yards.

Delaware got on the board on its opening drive as Lee scored from 35 yards out, but the Rams pulled even late in the first quarter on a 13-yard run by Robinson. Leading 14-7 in the third quarter, the Blue Hens pulled away as Henderson threw touchdown passes of 22 yards to Bryce DeMaille and 4 yards to Thyrick Pitts.

Stony Brook (1-3, 1-3 CAA) forced four turnovers and made several big plays defensively to defeat rival UAlbany, 21-7, and claim the Golden Apple. The Seawolves got interceptions from Chris Campbell and Nick Chimienti, while Tyler King forced a fumble that Peterson Octavian returned to the UAlbany 4-yard line in the fourth quarter to set up a key touchdown.

Stony Brook led 7-0 at the half after a Lawton 1-yard TD run and increased the advantage to 14-0 midway through the third quarter on a 6-yard pass from Tyquell Fields to Cal Redman. The Great Danes cut the deficit in half on a 9-yard TD pass from Carino to Chris Potts late in the third period. Octavian's fumble return early in the fourth quarter set up a 4-yard TD run by Lawton on the next play and Stony Brook's Sam Kamara made a big sack on a 4th down from the UAlbany 13 to seal the victory.

 
James Madison 38, William & Mary 10
Box Score


Top-ranked James Madison (4-0, 2-0 CAA) scored touchdowns on its first four possessions and cruised to a 38-10 win at William & Mary. The Dukes rolled up 460 yards of offense using a balanced attack, while their defense limited the Tribe to 187 yards.

JMU quarterback Cole Johnson completed 16-of-22 passes for 220 yards and a touchdown, with Antwane Wells, Jr. making six receptions for 86 yards.

Johnson guided scoring drives of 75 and 80 yards in the first quarter, hitting Clayton Cheatham with a 6-yard TD pass before Jawon Hamilton found the end zone on a 5-yard run. The Dukes made it 21-0 when Alex Miller scored on a fake field goal and Hamilton added a 4-yard TD run midway through the second period. The Dukes' defense, led by 11 tackles from Kelvin Azanama, forced four straight 3-and-outs in the second half.

 
Richmond 31, Elon 17
Box Score


Quarterback Joe Mancuso passed for 251 yards and two touchdowns and added another 48 yards on the ground to lead #21/20 Richmond (3-0, 3-0 CAA) past Elon, 31-17. The Spiders finished with 450 yards of total offense while holding the Phoenix to 243.

In addition to Mancuso, UR got a team-high 70 yards and a TD on the ground from Aaron Dykes, while Savon Smith had 69 yards and a TD on the ground. Leroy Henley made a team-best eight catches for 88 yards. For Elon (1-5, 0-4 CAA), freshman quarterback Justin Allen completed 19-of-32 passes for a career-high 198 yards and a TD.

The Spiders took a 14-0 first-quarter lead on a 38-yard TD catch by Dykes and a 44-yard scoring run by Smith. Allen hit Chandler Brayboy with a 40-yard TD pass to cut the deficit in half late in the first period, but Dykes found the end zone from 5 yards out in the second period to make it 21-7. The Phoenix closed to within 24-14 on a TD run by Jaylan Thomas late in the third quarter, but Mancuso found Isaac Brown on a 4-yard TD pass on fourth down with 8:42 remaining to expand Richmond's advantage. Tristan Wheeler had 14 tackles and 2.0 TFL to pace the UR defense, while Cole Coleman made 12 stops for Elon.

 



We’re likely moving up at least a couple of notches with URI and UIW losses.
UD will be taking a jump into the Top 10,as high as 8, with # 7,9,10 losing.
