So freaking cool to see us in there.

Lots of great info in there, but unfortunately, no TV dates/times yet. Just the blurbs about games being carried on FOX, CBSSN, and SN, with this blurb about the CUSA Championship game:

As mikeniner11 pointed out, if CCM or Cook had played last year, I think they’d possibly be on this list:

ALL-CONFERENCE CANDIDATES

CHARLOTTE
[font=trebuchetms]RB Kalif Phillips, Charlotte[/font]
[font=trebuchetms]WR Austin Duke, Charlotte[/font]
[font=trebuchetms]S Branden Dozier, Charlotte

[/font]This hurts though:

[font=trebuchetms]Tackles Solos Ast Total[/font]
[font=trebuchetms]Branden Dozier 52 34 86
Dustin Crouser 43 34 81[/font]
[font=trebuchetms]Karrington King 44 35 79[/font]
[font=trebuchetms]Nico Alcalde 41 19 60[/font]
[font=trebuchetms]Tank Norman 44 12 56[/font][font=trebuchetms]
TOTALS 612 356 968

[/font]I expect CCM and Cook to replace their production, but losing those two probably drops us from having one of the best LB units in CUSA to just an average one at best. Was going to be a strength of the team along with WR.

Yea, I was pumped so see us in there as well :D. It’s a decent reference guide for all our opponents. I didn’t know F_U were returning so many people, (15) for FIU and (12) for FAU (2nd and 3rd in the conference for most returning starters behind us). I can’t wait for next weekend, and next fall.
