2025 Richmond Spiders Football - Opponents Countdown - Bucknell

[KE Spider]

We have a common opponent, VMI.

Bucknell beat them 35 - 28. Spiders 38 - 14.

Bucknell surrendered 421 of O to the Keydets. Spiders surrendered 229.

Bucknell rushed for 71 net yards. The Spiders for 353.

Bucknell passed for 405, the Spiders for 188.

If our secondary holds up, and believe they will, and we get sacks from the D line, and believe we will, like our chances anemic offense or not.

The transitive application in math seems reasonable here for its application except for our 6 hour bus ride on Friday afternoon plus we are unable to pass the ball like VMI.Our defensive backfield is terribly vulnerable with inexperience which Rucker may be salivating over while looking at our game films.

All true. I'm guessing he won't be as accurate on the run or on his ass.

 

[KE Spider]

We both have played Lehigh too. We went down 21-14, while the Bison went down 41-24. Gave up 494 yds to Lehigh, Spids gave up 298. Bucknell has not played an FCS defense close to the Spiders. Pretty much a one trick pony - pass coupled with a very soft defense.

Very much like our chances.

So on paper this looks like a game we should win. The VMI and Lehigh common opponent comparisons would indicate this. But the game is played on a field and not on paper. And the offense needs to put up points and not struggle again.

This will be our fifth game of the season and second in Patriot League. This game should give us a better idea of where we stand in that league (at least for this year).

Who will be our QB? Wickersham or Snelsire?

I am slow on the uptake. After looking it up, I see Snelsire is #18.
I must admit your posts are pretty funny.

Why do these press conferences never have a mic on the person asking the question? I feel like I am playing Jeopardy.

Will Fair be back this week?

No Holy Cross at the earliest.

Agree wholeheartedly! Also need to either introduce the player, or put a graphic with their name and position on the video.

Ha! Several times I’ve had to go to the roster and find the player using the roster photos.

Go Spiders!

Glad to know it isn’t just me. I guess they are trying to drive traffic to the website. /s
