Michael Nebrich
-Fordham's offense was very impressive in the Rams' 51-26 win over Rhode Island last night in the Bronx. New starting QB Michael Nebrich was a true dual threat, going 17-25 for 247 yards, four TD passes and not INT's. He also run for a 32 yard TD.
Rhode Island's offense had some decent success against a Fordham defense that many expected would be the weaker unit on the team. Fordham captain Ian Williams left the game very early with a head injury.
Perhaps the biggest surprise was that Nebrich stayed in the entire game and was still running the ball quite frequently very late in the game. For a QB who missed almost all of last season with an ACL, that seemed like an iffy policy.
Fordham's next game will be a lot tougher; they host Villanova on 9/7 at 6pm.
-A record crowd of more than 21,000 packed Bobcat Stadium as Montana State beat Monmouth 42-24.
Montana State led 39-3 at the half and then slowly started to pull its starters.
New Monmouth QB Brandon Hill was 18-31 for 240 yards with two TD passes and two INT's.
Monmouth RB Julian Hayes had a strong game with 22 carries for 135 yards and a TD.
The Hawks' schedule gets a little easier next week, but not much. They travel to Virginia to face Liberty on 9/7 at 7pm.

Liberty almost beat D1-A Kent State last night. D1-AA Towson beat UConn handily.
FU-CU could really be a shootout.
