The FG team is having its problems. What was the game last week that had an NFL team missing three FGs and an extra point? Are the Hoyas using him?  |

How about them Hoyas! Should have been 24-9, but we will take this fine outcome. Hoyas did Green Bay one better (i.e., worse).

Nice win great offense in ot. Don't know where that play calling and execution had been the other 6 times they had near the red zone. I do know one thing this team should never again call a jet sweep or try to get to the edge.

How are all of these other PL teams this bad this year? Even with scholarships, a Patriot League experience can be a pretty hard sell. Not many dream of Easton, PA or Worcester, MA as their home for four years. Outside of their respective regions, many employers don't even recognize the schools. National-level football exposure and glory is almost certainly out of grasp. And even with the many allowances players are given, the Patriot League conceit of being academics-first means that you actually have to, like, go to class and write papers and junk. There's no shortage of schools, even at the FCS level, where you can get away with avoiding all that. What seems at first blush as 'a glitch in the Matrix' is, in fact, just one more indicator of how the entire machine is breaking down. But, for the moment, whatever. Go Hoyas! Enjoy the wailing coming out of Bethlehem, PA. |

Enjoy the wailing coming out of Bethlehem, PA. Yes, I get that, but: 1) We're bad. 2) These other schools' situations have only improved. 3) Our situation has worsened. 4) We're somehow beating other PL teams. |

There's no shortage of schools, even at the FCS level, where you can get away with avoiding all that. I would not agree with this. Not many dream of South Orange, NJ or Hillcrest, Queens either, so let's not be so arrogant as to place Georgetown as above the fray. The Big East isn't exactly teeming with Carnegie Tier I institutions. As for the PL, Lehigh University is ranked higher by US News than nine other Big East schools and Colgate holds its own with a lot of eastern schools academically. If the PL has bottom weight, it's with schools that do not play football, such as American and Loyola. Largely due to Georgetown's institutional mypoia about football, there aren't a lot of choices. The Ivy isn't interested, the NEC is a step below, and the Pioneer is a unwieldy scheduling alliance that is about to bring on the likes of Presbyterian and Augustana (SD) to its ranks. The idea of actually upgrading football to the betterment of Georgetown athletics sends shivers across 2nd Healy, if for no other reason that it would expose decades of benign neglect. When a fellow Hoya told me that "our peers are actually in the ACC now", he wasn't far from the truth. Yes, I get that, but: 1) We're bad. 2) These other schools' situations have only improved. 3) Our situation has worsened. 4) We're somehow beating other PL teams. Georgetown isn't bad it lacks depth because of the arbitrary and irrational admissions rules placed upon it by the league. A soccer player or swimmer can get into GU with grades that would not allow a football player to be admitted because of the PL Index. This is fundamentally unfair. I wrote in detail on the main site about why the PL is so poor this year. An excerpt: "Let's call Patriot League scholarships what they are--a transfer cost from a financial aid award to an athletic department award, but the same award to the same group of kids with the same talent level that they had before, and those kids are increasingly getting a better offer from the Ivy League.
The League is seeing it at signing day and they are seeing it on the field. Over the last two seasons, the Patriot League is 5-17 (.227) head to head versus Ivy schools. Of those five PL wins, three are against one team: Cornell.
Scholarships come at a price in the Patriot League, literally.
In 2011, the league (minus Georgetown) spent a collective $26 million on football expenses. In 2017, it increased to $36 million, with Lafayette's budget for football increasing 52 percent in six years and Bucknell by 80 percent. The six PL schools now rank among the 20 largest budgets in the subdivision and by any measure, aren't getting its collective money's worth. We can debate where Georgetown fits into this but the issue is bigger than Georgetown. The PL went all-in for scholarship football and they are, for now, the worse for wear. |
