CSU took the long road trip up to Bryant yesterday and rallied for a 24-23 win, their first of the season. Scored a touchdown with under 2 to play to take lead, then blocked FG on final play to preserve the win.
They are 1-5, they lost to Campbell by 6 the week prior and to Furman by 5 the week before that. They have been playing better and finally broke through yesterday.
This game is definitely winnable if we can clean up the turnovers. Our turnover margin leaves a lot to be desired. We were only +1 at our big win at RMU for example.

Looks like we are headed the right way finely, now they need to work on the turnovers.

I watched the Campbell-Charleston Southern game, and Chuck South looked pretty solid. They're certainly not as bad as their record. Of course, neither are we.
Let's take them very seriously. We need every game from here forward.

Seems like we have lost to these guys too often in the past when a win would have been crucial. Lamb knows full well a conference title will be his meal ticket on his way up the coaching ladder, and I fully believe with a healthy Gaither we can win out! But got to get through one at a time

Off topic, I do hope that Campbell knocks that cocky grin off of Prime Slime's face Saturday.

Nice solid 28-14 win. Three to go with Bryant next week then an off week before the big two at Campbell and against A&T.

Let me say this I think we are close!! It might not be this year, but I am convinced that after that near upset....well maybe or maybe not a upset at Liberty then a solid win over Charleston Southern that we are close to getting to being the team to beat in the Big South Conference and inching closer to a Playoff run in the FCS it might be wishful thinking but the DAWGS are on the right track!!!

Going into the game, I was uneasy; this felt like one that in the past we'd drop. Encouraging that we seem to have found a little consistency. Let's hope it continues!

It looked bad when the schedule came out since it was so late, but getting an extra week to prep for Campbell, arguably our tightest remaining opponent, is huge.

Anyone know the status of AJ Johnson, our four-star WR from NoLa?

A little off topic but with Charlotte firing Will Healey today I wonder if Lamb gives him a call this off-season. They have a friendship and bringing in Healey as OC would be huge. Getting his buyout from Charlotte could make the lack of pay from GWU less of an issue. Obviously this is a dream scenario and highly unlikely but as the kids says “shooters shoot so shoot ya shot!”

Matt Rhule is available for them.🤪

Yes, Minter would be a good hire for them, he would load their roster with local talent with his connections from his high school coaching days. It would mean zilch to GW however, since Campbell is making the wise move to the CAA and leaving the dumpster fire Big South in the dust.
