Highlights

UAlbany sophomore quarterback Will Fiacchi talks about his team's upcoming game against Robert Morris, which kicks off the Northeast Conference season for the defending league champs.

The University at Albany posted a nice victory over Robert Morris on Saturday, 28-17.

Read my quick recap here and make sure to pick up The Record or check out troyrecord.com for the game story coming tomorrow.

With back-to-back victories and four straight wins, the Great Danes look like the best team in the conference RIGHT NOW.

After talking to the players, they realize every week there is a potential to lose, especially next weekend, when they travel to Central Connecticut State.

Welcome to November. That means the college football season is winding down.

Conference titles are going to be decided in the next few weeks.

As for UAlbany, their season has slowly slipped from optimism to frustration as they lost for the third straight time, to Bryant, on Saturday.

As for the NEC leaders, Robert Morris, they still can't gain traction in The Sports Network's Top 25 poll.

The Colonials are ranked No. 21 in my poll, which is below.

As for a team that is ranked (not on my ballot), Cal Poly defeated NEC basement dwellers, St. Francis (Pa.), 41-33. Cal Poly is ranked No. 19, but only beat St. Francis by eight. Robert Morris beat St. Francis 35-14.

UAlbany beat the Red Flash, 48-0, so I dropped Cal Poly as soon as I saw that score. (In fairness to some voters, that was a late Saturday night start, so if they voted before then, they didn't see that)

Here is my full poll with a number in (x), if it's different in the actual poll.

Sophomore wide receiver Ryan Kirchner talks about the team's big conference matchup against Robert Morris.

Voting is something very important to do.

In an election year (albeit not presidential) it's important that everyone be heard.

Anyway, I'm in the process of changing my address for voting purposes, but just have been procrastinating.

What I have been voting on is the FCS Top 25. I also just made my first picks for the ECAC football polls that started this weekend. I'll post those results when I get them.

The most troubling news for UAlbany is they're not in the The Sports Network's Top 25, yet two teams they've beaten are receiving votes - Maine and Yale.

If the Great Danes beat Robert Morris next week and Yale and Maine continue to win, they might be able to crack my Top 25 which is listed below. The number in (x) is the team's actual ranking if there's any difference.

2. Delaware

Xavier Keeling, Detroit
Jonathan Boyd, Alcorn State
Mezie Nwigwe, Robert Morris
Will Harris, UAlbany
MVP: Eli Holman, Detroit

That's a final from the SEFCU Arena in the first game of the night.

From what I saw (which was just the last 13 minutes or so) both of these teams will prove stern tests for UAlbany.

The Great Danes tip with Alcorn State in 10 minutes.
