With Vernon Adams Jr. serving a one game suspension, and Reilly looking better recently and playing at home, I think BC will win.

What a crazy ending! Third and one at the BC two yard line and instead of going for a FG for a one point lead in a with a minute to go, Khari Jones elects to sub in Pipkin who fumbles and turns the ball over on downs and the game. Reilly is looking like his old self going 30/34 for 309 yards.
I would have gone for it too. Pipken was killing it on the sneaks up to that point. Unfortunate he fumbled that time. 1:10 is too mush time to leave on the clock with what would be a 1 point lead. As yopu mentioned, Reilly was easily having his best game of the season, and Sergio Castillo has been the best FG kicker in the league this year (with Tyler Crapigna a close 2nd).Quote:

Mind you, no bid deal for the Als i guess - who it seems are home & cooled to host the East Semi this year É - and speaking of which - will they go to the Big Owe and hope for a huge crowd for that game - seems like a no brainer and i bet they would get 40K plus easily.
Nice gift for Mr. Ed and Nice Hat in BC - to give them some hope to make the play-offs in a putrid season (up till they got to play the Ottawa Sooners in 2 straight games)
The decision by Jones was the correct one; the execution was terrible on Pipkin's part.
