Duquesne reminds people they are good, 31-13 over Bison
Georgetown might need an insulin shot, they dispatch Marist 30-24
Delaware can run, Lafayette won't be able to stop the run, Blue Hens win 30-7
Lehigh keeps it closer than folks think, but can't beat a great team, Nova wins, 31-24
Holy Cross is better, but won't be able to keep up with UNH, Wildcats 44-24

Some highs and some lows in Week 1, but few real surprises.
Only two day games this week. Patriot League football has changed, hasn’t it?
Elizabeth City State* @ FORDHAM
BUCKNELL @ Duquesne
GEORGETOWN @ Marist
Delaware @ LAFAYETTE
LEHIGH @ Villanova
HOLY CROSS @ New Hampshire
Bye: COLGATE
*Trivia question for Patriot League eggheads: Exactly where is Elizabeth City and what state is it in? If you look it up, you are disqualified and … well … no soup for you.
GAME OF THE WEEK: BUCKNELL @ Duquesne – Bucknell’s OOC schedule is always loaded with cupcakes. This may have looked like just another pastry when it was scheduled, but the Dukes now appear to be a cut above their brethren in the NEC. If Bucky is going to turn the corner and make their presence felt in the Patriot League, this is probably their only chance to show it before League play begins.
ANOTHER GAME OF NOTE: GEORGETOWN @ Marist – Is this a test for the Hoyas?

While we're at it, let's knock the rest of these out too.
Navy 41, Fordham 7. This ain't Army.
Georgetown 44, Davidson 3. This will be as ugly as it looks on paper.
Holy Cross 28, Morgan State 13. Bad matchup for the Bears, good tune-up for the Purple People Eaters.
Bucknell 21, Marist 19. A should-be win from the Buckies, but will be a lot closer than people think.

COLGATE @ Syracuse - As someone already said, avoid injury and cash the check. No hope for the 'gaters.
FORDHAM @ Navy - The Middies control the ball, the clock and the scoreboard. The Rams big weapons don't really get fired.
Monmouth @ LEHIGH - As usual, the Squawkers are scared silly over this. Listen up, guys - Monmouth won all of five games last year against some pretty mediocre competition. If the BrownStains can't win this one, you should burn the rest of your tickets and find something else to do until Thanksgiving.
Davidson @ GEORGETOWN - The Hoyas don't appear to have much, but they got themselves a laffer to get things started.
HOLY CROSS @ Morgan State - Some are seeing this as competitive. Only if Pujals misses the bus.
BUCKNELL @ Marist - Bucky continues to chow down on cupcakes.

The yin and yang of PL OOC scheduling from best to cupcake.
Cuse-Gate Not a W for Raiders. Victory for them will be not losing Melville for the year.
Navy Fordham
Good game but dont see Rams stopping Middies.
LU- Monmouth. A W as O carries the day. We'll see whether we have an actual D or a work in progress.
Pards CCSU
Pards should win fairly easily.
This is the question mark game for me. A bad start in game could spiral to a Loss. Pure hedge CCSU.
GU,HC and BU. A cupcake parade all PL Ws.

Everyone is getting anxious so let’s start early. The first week features a mixture of cupcakes and potential blowouts. The two top contenders for League honors are looking to climb tall mountains, while one of the expected cellar dwellers may be playing the most important game on its 2016 schedule.
Friday, September 2nd:
LAFAYETTE @ Central Connecticut
COLGATE @ Syracuse
Saturday, September 3rd:
FORDHAM @ Navy
Monmouth @ LEHIGH
Davidson @ GEORGETOWN
HOLY CROSS @ Morgan State
BUCKNELL @ Marist
GAME OF THE WEEK: LAFAYETTE @ Central Connecticut – A loss in this very winnable opener would give the Pards a solid shot at going 0-5 in a rugged OOC schedule. That would make the hole they dug for themselves last year even deeper. Is this a MUST win? You bet your ever lovin’ backside it is!

Someone had to be 5th. Could they win the whole thing? You bet.

No. 6 Lafayette
No. 7 Georgetown
Despite the record, there was improvement by the end of last season for the Leopards. Does that spell improvement in 2016, or does a lot more need to be done?
