It was a weekend full of blowouts around the CAA as the schedule begins to wind down and teams enter the last three weeks of the 2025 football season
Special teams came up big for William & Mary as the Tribe scored a touchdown on a fake field goal and blocked three punts for safeties in a 37-7 victory over UAlbany. W&M quarterback Tyler Hughes also had a big day, throwing for 245 yards and a TD and adding 52 yards on the ground.
Quarterback Carter Peevy accounted for 239 yards of offense and three touchdowns as Maine pushed its winning streak to five by beating Stony Brook, 28-21. The Black Bears’ defense recorded five sacks and held the Seawolves to three yards rushing.
Towson got contributions from all three units to build a 42-3 halftime lead and rolled to a 62-9 road win at North Carolina A&T. Freshman quarterback Andrew Indorf led a Tigers’ offense that piled up 527 yards, completing 18-of-24 passes for 294 yards and 2 TD’s.
A&T got off to a good start as Andrew Brown drilled a school-record 56-yard field goal on the opening drive of the game, but it was all Towson after that.
Rodney Nelson rushed for a career-high 244 yards and two touchdowns on 34 carries as Monmouth extended its winning streak to six with a 35-7 triumph over Bryant to move into a tie for first place in the CAA.
We won’t belabor last week’s 62-9 loss to Towson. You all saw what happened either in person or on streaming/local TV 48. A&T was outclassed and outplayed in most every aspect. Three first half turnovers, 2 interceptions and a blocked punt put the Aggies in a 28-3 first quarter hole which they would never recover from as things only steamrolled even more as the game wore on.
Today’s contest on the road at Stony Brook (NY) might be more of the same as the Seawolves, who were picked to finish fourth in the preseason CAA polls, are coming off a tough 28-21 loss to red hot Maine. Stony Brook comes in at 2-3 in the conference and 4-5 overall. SBU will be looking to string together some wins in November to perhaps finish out at 7-5 or no worse than 6-6.
The Seawolves have a dynamic offense led by quarterback Quinn Boyd running back Ronald Dempster. The Seawolves enter the game with the fourth-ranked total offense and fifth-ranked total defense in the conference. They play pretty much error free football and are the least penalized team in the CAA. They ae a ball control offense that lives by the running game first and foremost.
Folks will be anxious to see how A&T will respond after a hugely disappointing effort last week against another quality opponent. I suspect the Aggies will play better and make a real game out of it, but logic tells me that Stony Brook will be just too good in the end at home.
Stony Brook – 34
N.C. A&T – 20
