CAA football starts tonight with Delaware-William & Mary


You can watch Delaware-W&M live on internet video from CN8 at 7:30 here .

This game will jump start the season of one of these teams and add a lot of pressure to the loosing squad. William & Mary has lost 12 of their last 15 games. The Hens are 11-11 over the last two years.

Both teams play a BCS/I-A team this year. A loss tonight and a loss to the I-A team means the loosing team would likely have to go 8-1 against the rest of their schedule to make the playoffs. That's going to be tough to do in the deep and talented CAA.

We should be interested because the NCAA matches teams in the playoffs by region, not by seeding. If UMass should make the playoffs and go on the second round, there is an excellent chance we will be meeting another CAA team.
