Looking forward to return to your place. Last visit was exhausting! We'll be set up with catered BBQ again at the Schar Center so come over and visit.
Tribe has had our depth tested early with a revolving door of players on both sides of the ball. How tough it's been is best seen among our five Captains only one of whom played last week. We were missing nine starters when we took the field at Colgate but the good news for us was the offense found itself up there despite the revolving door and the defense has been strong no matter who's available.
Expect a very different game from last Spring with Cheek back. Anxious to see if our D can continue to create the kind of pressure they have through three games with 13 sacks, 14 QB hurries and 22 TFL.

Good luck to the Tribe every Saturday except this Saturday.
A lot of positive takeaways from our game with App. We need to keep improving on our run in short yardage situations to help alleviate the need for Cheek to sling it every down. I’m really excited about Witherspoon back there - I think he can have a great career at Elon. If we can be effective on 2nd/3rd and 3 then we should do a pretty good job Saturday. Can’t have pre-snap penalties. I will put our receiving corps and QB up against anybody - if oline keeps improving (which they are) and our backs grind it out with an explosive play here and there, then we will have a good shot each and every Saturday in conference play.
Looking forward to Saturday!
Go Elon.

Should be a pretty good match up for both teams. First conference game too.

Looking forward to this game.
The team is right about where I expected them to be at this point and I think this will be an evenly matched game. Hopefully not 5 OTs evenly matched.
Pretty much need a 6-2 conference record to have a decent shot at the playoffs and a win Saturday would be a great start. Weather should be really nice and it's family weekend too. Hoping for a decent crowd.
Go Phoenix!

We'll be in area 3 probably toward the lower left area as you look at the parking map. We had the tailgate catered in 2019 and were able to have plenty of room for the caterer and all of us near that corner. Look for a white GMC Acadia with lots of Tribe stuff on it and you'll find me!
