One week after putting up season-worst numbers offensively, the Robert Morris Colonials rebounded well, winning a game against East Tennessee State handily, 21-9. The Colonials (3-6, 1-3) have a tough two-game NEC schedule to close out their season,...
What began as a promising narrative of a rebuilding football program has fallen on some darker days, but for the Robert Morris Colonials, there is light at the end of the tunnel. The Colonials (2-6, 1-3) have three games remaining; the last two are...
Entering their biggest rivalry game of the year, the Robert Morris University Colonials would have liked to have been in a slightly better situation. The Colonials (2-4, 1-1) began the season with tremendous promise, but still have a losing record attached...
Before college football began this Saturday, the Robert Morris University Colonials were in a position fans would expect of a rebuilding team: 1-3, with close games dotting the schedule. As college football closed and Sunday began, the Colonials’...
We said it after their first game. We said it after their second game. And now we are saying it again as Robert Morris University enters its fifth weekend of college football: this Colonials team is much better than its record. The Colonials (1-4, 0-0)...
After a three-year absence on Homecoming weekend and a three-week absence this season, Robert Morris was able to tally a win last weekend, much to the enjoyment of the largest crowd Robert Morris will see in and around Joe Walton all year. The Colonials...
Robert Morris is not getting the praise it deserves thus far in the season. The Colonials (0-2, 0-0) are making a case to be one of the best 0-2 teams in the FCS. Their two losses have come in the final moments of each game, and even though the Colonials...
As the NFL season kicks off this week, it is fun to look ahead and project what the storylines at the end of the season will be. Instead of picking who will play each other in Super Bowl L this year, this exercise will go division by division looking...

After enduring an entire season of disappointment in 2014, hope has finally arrived over the horizon for the Robert Morris University Colonials. The Colonials (0-1, 0-0) may have come out on the losing end of a thrilling contest against the Dayton Flyers...
For the 2015 season, the Robert Morris Colonials will share one theme with last season’s squad and try to rid itself of another. The theme they share is new beginnings. Last season, the Colonials ended the Joe Walton era and welcomed the new lead...
After a long season of rebuilding, flashes of potential, and an electrifying victory, the Robert Morris Colonials (1-8, 1-3 NEC) begin to close out the 2014 season. This weekend, they play their home finale against the Saint Francis University Red Flash...
The Robert Morris University Colonials (1-6, 1-1 NEC) finally got the first win of the season out of the way. They did so in exciting fashion, coming back from over two touchdowns behind in the fourth quarter to beat Central Connecticut State. The challenge...
Robert Morris travels to Dayton, Ohio this Saturday still looking for their first win of the season. Both teams are coming off lopsided losses from the previous week: the Colonials (0-3) just underwent a 50-3 drumming at the hands of the Lafayette Leopards,...
This Saturday, Robert Morris, (0-2) and Lafayette (0-1) will face off with both teams looking to earn its first win of the season. Lafayette is coming off a 27-14 loss at the hands of last year’s NEC champion, Sacred Heart. Robert Morris heads to Easton,...
Tomorrow, Robert Morris and North Dakota will meet at the Alerus Center in Grand Forks, North Dakota. Both are looking to rebound from disappointing losses in their opening games. Here are four key points for RMU to focus on if they want to improve...
The NFL Draft is but a couple hours away, and speculation is running rampant, especially given the additional time now that the draft has been moved back. One of the best draft classes in years has several elite talents fighting to be the first overall...
The time is upon us: fans are booking trips to Radio City Music Hall, Kevin Costner keeps taking on the task of saving the Browns every night at 5:35, 7:15, and 10, and experts are finalizing their rankings and mock drafts. My final Big Board of the year...
The NFL Scouting Combine has almost come and gone, so before the all-important post-combine rankings come out, I wanted to post a list of my Top 50 prospects. The list was created the day before the combine started, and the following Big Board following...
Before the slate of Week 17 games end and mess up the NFL Draft order once again, here is an updated mock draft (following the order post-Week 16)!
1. Houston Texans: Teddy Bridgewater, QB, Louisville
If my memory serves me correctly,...
After sixteen weeks of hard-fought action, the final week of the NFL season is here, and fans should be pleased to know that many teams are still alive in the playoff race, and there are even a couple games that the winner makes the playoffs, and the...
I'll start by saying I apologize to anyone who checks here for their NFL picks directly before the 1 P.M. kickoff, a storm took our power out at home, leaving me with no internet or way to get to an access point until just about a half hour ago. On the...
This week's version of "NFL Picks" will be a quick hits version. Last week was 10-6, good enough to keep me firmly entrenched in last place with a 122-85 record. Foregoing a typical introduction, I just urge everybody to remain safe on the roads as severe...
Now that Thanksgiving is over and we are nice and bloated, it is time to prepare for Christmas. Given the economy though, it seems fitting that cutbacks be made. Don't buy as much as you normally would for friends and family, and donate what money you...
Before I get to my picks, I thought of some good tips for fans who have a miserable team, need something to do on commercials, or just have trouble focusing on a football game, because as my dad always complained when I was younger, "How do they expect...
I shall start this off with a solution to those of you in the Pittsburgh, New York, and Jacksonville areas: find yourselves another hobby for Sundays, and, in the case of PIT and NYG, locate the hashtag I attempted to start (#TankforClowney), because...
I believe that if one is to learn anything from this NFL season, it is that you should never bet on football. I can only imagine how much money has been lost by people picking against Cleveland, rooting for Washington, or picking the Steelers or Giants...
Now that we have had some time to digest the move and rashly yell all our opinions, let's take a good, long look at the Trent Richardson trade. NFL trades do not happen often; I thought my friend was preying upon my football obsession to garner a reaction...
Every once and awhile during the NFL season, it's nice for everyone, not just the draft junkies, to pause and look to the future. Some teams have already sent their fans to the draft boards, scouring for a savior just two weeks into the season. For all...
It's that time of year again. Football fans gear up for seventeen (and hopefully a few after that) weeks of gridiron action. And for every few fans who focus solely on a favorite team for the season, one is likely to sacrifice a bit of their fanaticism...
It is never too early to start talking about the next year’s NFL Draft! A mere eleven months away from the big event, teams are already drooling over many prospects who are better than the entirety of last year’s class! My hiatus from writing is over...
So I've been singing "Thrift Shop" for about the past two weeks. Being that I have it playing currently, I felt it only appropriate I make it my title track.
This is my second-to-last mock draft of the year. My last mock draft will be coming the day...
I know I usually start my posts off with a creative song title to grab reader's attention; this post just happened to set me up with a gold mine of a title that warranted bypassing my usual musical headings. To the casual NFL fan, who sees the draft as...
Now that The Combine is over, and the offseason mania that is free agency has begun, I felt it was time for an updated Mock Draft! But, after witnessing last year’s trade bonanza brought about by reasonable rookie contracts, I am going to be more trigger-happy...
This week's song comes from one I heard at a club hockey game at RMU last night, and was reminded of during the Penguins game I'm watching now. This mock is a few weeks old, but before I typed it, I analyzed the first round, and not many of my picks had...
This song is one I just got off a commercial I heard. Great song by a band I consider almost a one-hit wonder, Bush. Chord progressions were the same as the song used in the commercial. Nevertheless, I don't need to bore you with musical details. Just...
