Our Dukes got a good win today after a slow start and coming from down 14 to 3! The Dukes showed a lot of character and came back by making the adjustments on defense and using a lot of Billy Lucas in the second half. This team has battled injuries and came up big in the second half and flipped the script from the Sacred Heart and St Francis games. Big sacks from Dline and freshman Kersinger in the clutch and Lucas over 100 yards. Perrantes spread the ball around to all the receivers too and a lot to be proud of today with the team. Senior day next week with rival Central at Rooney with a noon kick! Go Dukes Sacred Heart is the only team at 4-1. Is there still a chance? Hey coffee, I guess the Dukes have a mathematical chance but I don't see Sacred Heart losing to LIU and Wagner to give them 3 loses. I think Chestnut is back too for the Pios and while we hopefully will win out it is highly unlikely Last edited by Judge Jack McVay Jr (11/06/2021 7:05 pm) It seems unlikely Sacred Heart will lose either of their remaining games, but as far as I can tell we could win the conference if they only lose one. Obviously we need to win out. That would get us to 5-2 in conference. SHU losing one would put them at 5-2 as well. We need Bryant to win out, which is likely, to also get to 5-2. If we win out we’d give CCSU their third lose. Then we need St. Francis to lose another. CCSU seems most likely, but it doesn’t matter who, just that they pick up a third loss. Nice rundown lucky- thanks! Agree with you Coffee thanks for the update
CURRENT RECORD 9 - 12 (4-4 in the A-10)

Re: DUKES WIN ON LONG ISLAND!
That would leave us, Sacred Heart, and Bryant in a three way tie at 5-2. The first tiebreaker is of course record against tied teams. We’d all be 1-1. So it would go to the second tiebreaker. As far as I can tell that is overall record. At that point Sacred Heart and Bryant would both be 7-4, but we’d be 7-3. Therefore we would win the conference and head to the playoffs again. It’s a long shot, but this time of the season that’s what being a fan is all about.
