CAA Football Defensive Player of the Week - Jake Giusti, SS, Delaware
Giusti, returning from a severe knee injury suffered in last season's National Championship game, the safety picked up CAA Football Defensive Player of the Week honors after returning a fumble 32 yards for a touchdown. Giusti, who also logged a tackle in the 45-0 shutout win over Delaware State, helped pace a Blue Hen defense which limited the Hornets to 112 total yards and just four first downs. Delaware's defensive unit did not allow a third-down conversion on the night, limiting DSU to a 0-for-10 effort.

After a victorious weekend over Delaware State, the Blue Hens have their first ever matchup with Old Dominion to look forward too, officially kicking off the CAA season for Coach Keeler's squad on Saturday.  Here is the audio link for the CAA Football Teleconference, and my take on K.C.'s segment of the TC (ODU Coach Wilder's segment also covered):

FCS Bracketology - Pt. 4

Another week, another bracket to moan about.  I get what Craig Haley was doing here, with all the teams on a bye this week.  Delaware remains in the same position as last week.  The big movers are Eastern Washington (dropped) and Montana, who beat them (added).  Here's your bracket:

I really do hope that they warmed up the bus during that 4th quarter because this was o-v-e-r early!  Now, for all the fun this beat down was for the casual fan, the real truth here is that no problems were really "solved."  I'll get into that in a bit, but first, here is your game rundown:
