Howdyoscarp, your observation about the heat and TV makes sense to me. I recently went to a daytime soccer game and nearly melted. Fall season needs to get here quickly. Maybe the rain will help.
BTW, Welcome to Cat Chat, but it would be interesting to know how your unique posting name came about. Unique names are always intriguing.

A fairly impressive win for transitioning UWG last night against SoCon Samford: 38-29. Samford was 6-5 last year, including wins against Wofford, The Citadel, UT-Matrin, VMI, & ETSU. I think we win against them at home, as long as we don't have a letdown game, but UWG won't be a newcomer pushover.

UCA fought Arkansas St. hard but just fell short: 31-34.

Tarleton wasn't a surprise with their lead QB out for 3 weeks and playing Baylor, losing 3-45.

Saw an FCS ranking poll that has us ranked #23. It’s not one of the national ranking systems, but I would not be surprised if we are ranked in the top 25 for this week

Correct Howdy Oscar P It was just to let everone know I am a Tarleton guy. For those that did not know, Oscar P was John Tarleton's pet Duck who by legend walked with him all the way to Stephenville from Tennessee. RC.....I love Bach too! You should know who I am now!

I would not be surprised if ACU entered the poll in the top 20, I think they should. If they acutually won the game ACU would have entered around #15 I would have thought. I would also not be suprised if Tarleton exited the poll, not sure if we will be punished for losing badly to a P4 program.

Joel is a really good coach from Mercer. He seems to have done a good job of bringing his new roster together. It should be a good game, and I look forward to it.

UCA fought Arkansas St. hard but just fell short: 31-34. As it turns out, the officials got it wrong. Arkansas State’s game winning TD - which was overturned after being called incomplete - was, in fact, incomplete. There was a camera angle that the refs never looked at. Also, Eastern Kentucky will wear their white uniforms on the road at Western Kentucky. This seems like no big deal except that WKU requested that EKU wear maroon so that the team could participate in their annual White Out game. You may remember that it was EkU that wouldn’t waive the uniform rule when ACU brought gray instead of white uniforms and ended up getting a fifteen yard penalty at the beginning of each quarter.

Honestly, the NCAA should strip AR St. of the W and give it to UCA. We all know that won't happen. I think it will be remembered though if it comes down to UCA needing votes for an At-Large bid. In reality, UCA is 1-0 right now.

I think this will affect FCS schools. It will just be who and to what degree. The WAC/UAC is always a little at risk.
