I blogged before about the noticeable difference in the economies of southern states like Virginia and that of New England. This article looks at the effect of the "rust belt' on college football.

The success of the CAA south teams Richmond, William & Mary and JMU have been the difference behind the South's dominance over the CAA North. Upcoming power Old Dominion will make the South even stronger. The Monarchs had the winningest FCS startup in history last year.

The NCAA Football 11 demo arrives June 14th. I won't buy it until FCS teams are included.

Sorry I missed it: last year's DII football playoff game between West Liberty and Edinboro. The Hilltoppers won 84-63.

Yesterday was 96 days until the start of the 2010 season. Wearing #96 for the Minutemen is Brandon Levengood, 6-0 185 pd k/p from Lebanon, PA. Levengood had a red shirt year in 2009.

Today is 95 days until football starts and wearing #95 of UMass is Brandon Potvin a 6-1 240 pd DL from Worcester, MA. Potvin was also red shirted in 2009.
