Might the team be competitive in the Patriot League this year? I know nothing about Davidson or Marist, but it was two handy victories.

Might the team be competitive in the Patriot League this year? I know nothing about Davidson or Marist, but it was two handy victories. Davidson and Marist are middle tier teams in the lowest ranked I-AA conference by all measurements, so they are not a true representation of what Georgetown will face thereafter. Can Georgetown be competitive? Yes, but the same constraints will still be there: Georgetown doesn't have a big, impact runner, its depth can be a problem, and special teams can be erratic. The defense will always be there but an opponent with a sturdy offensive line will allow an opposing QB time to find open receivers. I was watching the Villanova at Colgate game on ESPN+ (Wildcats, 28-3) and Villanova's recruits are just bigger and quicker than Colgate, and that takes over in the second half, which is what often happens to Georgetown in Patriot League games.** Georgetown works hard and is well coached but the talent gap will always be a challenge. We can debate how GU can address that but it puts a constraint on what Georgetown can do versus other schools. **Yes, I still talk about the potential of a future Georgetown-Villanova series, and Georgetown-Butler, for that matter. No, it's not going anywhere.
