Why have the Ivies been dropped from the scruple. Fordham should only schedule teams where the fans know who they are and where rivalries can be developed. Also interesting there are only four home games why?

First there is “no quit” in this team when facing adversity.

Second they scored twice in the first quarter which was a testament to their preparedness for this game.

Fordham as I expected has a number of guys that can play at the FBS level successfully and they showed just that.

Coaching staff did an excellent job in game planning and mental preparedness for this game.

Fordham proved whether the opponent is FCS or FBS level it is “major college” football and you better be ready to play or you will get beat.

Fordham made that notion to the Ball State team (who never underestimated them) loud and clear in the first quarter.

Fordham set that tone and it was “game on – pedal to the metal” from that point forward for the Cardinals.

Wish Fordham the best in the rest of their season as they werea classy bunch and fun to watch!
