Minus the loss at Richmond, I'm incredibly psyched that we'll be HOSTING a game at ZABLE this Saturday. I waited the last for years for W&M to qualify for the playoffs, but was let down each year (and then I graduated!). But now, the time has finally come, and you best believe I already have a ticket.
Duquesne is in a weak conference, but they should not be overlooked. The linebacker Kuntz has an INSANE stat line, and has to be an absolute beast. Check out our preview of the game, complete with player-by-player analysis and more below! LET'S GO TRIBE!!!

Wow great catch, I even knew it was at 3:30 and messed up. Thanks for the heads up, it's changed now.
I just added the full-length interview of Coach Laycock from ESPN today to the article. Check the article now if you haven't already seen the video!
Duquesne reminds me of either an old song by Eric Clapton or the movie Shawshank Redemption. In essence then, I know as much about them as the Tribe. I hope we play well Saturday and don't overlook them.

We will play one of the best games of our year this Saturday. The chip is on their shoulder again. 45 10 Tribe!
Duquesne has a number of FBS transfers playing including guys from Penn State, Pitt and Arizona.
Special game for Dom Martinelli and Kevin Hart. Three of Martinelli's Montour H.S. teammates play for the Dukes (including QB Dillon Buechel), and two of Hart's Seton-LaSalle mates are on that roster. Both also played against many of Duquesne's guys in high school. The Duquesne roster is definitely Pittsburgh-centric.
In addition to Christian Kuntz, the Dukes have another excellent LB in Nathan Stone. The 6' 240 ILB was NEC Rookie of the Year in 2014 and has matched Kuntz with 9 sacks this year.
