2025 Richmond Spiders Football - Countdown - Lehigh

[BlueCollarSpider]

Also at the breakfast Monday a question was asked about communication on sideline to field. The QB will be in contact to sideline up until 10 seconds before the snap as well as 1 defensive player also

Sources tell me senior captain Jordan Allen (safety) will have the earpiece on defense. Best choice in my opinion, veteran leader with lots of in game experience.

Wickersham holds the ball too long.He’s got to see the field quicker than previously.
Fair getting behind their secondary would help too.

Receivers need to get quick separation to help him out.

Receivers need to get quick separation to help him out.

And Wickersham needs to see the separation.

Kyle will be the key. He definitely will add a weapon with his running in the short yardage package. He has shown he can complete passes to open receivers but the key is can he fit the ball in tight spaces and make quick reads and decisions. Hopefully he will see the field better and play with confidence. If he can be a playmaker instead of a game manager, we will be fine. Expecting big things from him this year.

 

[LU808]

Sean Clarke is the key to this game

I think the O-line play on both sides will determine the outcome.

 

[32counter]

Line is up to -6.5. Pretty fair number.

Anyone see a point spread for this game/

Gonna say -6.5 Lehigh

O/U 42

With a dozen UR early exit starters from ‘24 team,it won’t be that close.

This game is getting FCS press. The winner will gain respect. Wickersham wants revenge.
"It’s the end of a long, somewhat painful offseason for Richmond, and it starts right away for the Spiders in trying to reverse the end of last season as well....
While Richmond will be looking for revenge, Lehigh will be looking for respectability – respectability in the sense of proving that last season was not a fluke."

Huesman needs to quit complaining about his kicker, unless it's just hype.

 

[Gallipoli]

I think the O-line play on both sides will determine the outcome.

Will you share your kicker?

 

[SpiderFanatic]

I kind of like the idea of just going four downs once we get past the 50. Gives us the freedom to go for more big plays.

 

[LU808]

Will you share your kicker?

Sure, we'll trade one kicker for three sweet looking cheerleaders (no men)

To sweeten the deal, we can give you fifty or so cougars, no strings attached. I'll even throw in my sister for good measure. And no take backs.

Your sister is here. She says to tell you "Hi".

Safely arrived in Bethlehem and enjoyed some great food and drink in the local eateries downtown. Ready for some tailgating in morning and a great game. Limit turnovers and big plays and Spiders start season with a big win. Looking forward to a great game and meeting some Lehigh fans pregame in general parking lot before heading over to game. Go Spiders!

Excited to show the Patriot League who UR Football is all about

Between us boys and girls,not feeling at all good about this one.

Lehigh has relatively too many experienced weapons on both sides of ball.

 

[Gallipoli]

Wickersham has been sacked twice. He is slow on his release. Two punts already.

 

[Gallipoli]

Where is our TE play?

 

[Gallipoli]

Our D with a pick. Our D is playing well.
