Twenty years of not fitting your narratives

Like many, here at Lambert Cup headquarters we are looking forward to the FCS playoff selection committee's first Top 10 rankings today on ESPN. This week's Lambert Cup Poll is out, and here's the results before the broadcast! Might be pertinent to their initial rankings.

The FCS playoff committee’s first Top 10 rankings reveal today (2 p.m. ET, “CFB Live” on ESPN2) helps give insight into which teams are in contention for eight first-round byes. The 24-team pairings will be announced on Nov. 22.

Were today's NY Times headlines written by the RNC? Russia financed France far right "seizing the moment", long term sunny prospect for Republicans, "Republicans are worried about turnout, here's what they're doing.". What's next, a centerfold of right wing traitor and slug Steve Bannon?

Cornell 48, Lehigh 38, Final. The Big Red carved up the Lehigh defense for 600 yards. They had a great game plan and deserved to win. The Lehigh defense will take a long bus ride back from Ithaca with a lot of questions on D. They'll need to answer some questions before a tough game at Villanova.

End of the 3rd quarter, Lehigh 24, Cornell 38, with Lehigh on the doorstep. Lehigh offense seems up for this challenge, but the defense needs to get one stop - any stop - in order to have a chance. Still, Lehigh is battling here. We could be in for a wild finish.

End of the 1Q, Lehigh 7, Cornell 14. Despite the highlight-reel 101 yard fumble return by Luke Denny, that was the worst quarter of football Lehigh has played in a long while. The defense is getting carved up by Cornell's offense, and the Big Red are driving again.
