How much athletic scholarship money do Div 2 and NAIA athletes get, and at least the end does it pretty much even out with Div. 1 non scholarship schools?

To say it is complicated would be an understatement.  Here's an article that may help.

Quote from: VULB#62 on September 07, 2019, 07:09:15 PMNeed to point out that NAIA schools can offer FB scholarships. So I would lump them closer to D-II than D-III.
Don't ruin a good wallow. ;D
You mentioned in the other thread that Drake went down to Truman St 10-7 with Truman putting up almost no offense. Drake must be down this year offensively. Butler also had to go to overtime to beat their NAIA opponent Indiana Wesleyan.

The TSU TD was an 87 yd KO return to begin the second half putting TSU up 10-0. Drake had the entire 2nd half to comeback and couldn't put two scoring drives together — only scored 1 TD. Yet, they were able  to score against a legit FCS UND the week before  ??? ??? ???

Time to place a W on the win column for the beloved Crusaders over Des Moines finest. This game will have more interest than College Game Day in Ames next week!

Against North Dakota, Drake managed to put all of their offensive output into the one scoring drive. They haven't been able to run the ball at all. Averaging about a yard per carry. Vs. NDU that may be understandable. Not sure that should be the case against Truman.

Drake has lost to non Div 1 teams in the past - in fact, I think they are afraid to compete against Grandview or Central.

So if Valpo beats Truman State, are they out of the Sagarin Cellar?

Unfortunately Big, Big IF


My prediction>>>>>>>>> TSU 53, Valpo 11

usc4valpo

I think TSU will win, but that score is overly pessimistic. Last week I predicted 43-20 and member thought that was a high, more pessimistic spread. I was actually optimistic as the score was 42-13.

Valpo needs more talent and skill players to get out of the Sagarin cellar. I think this coach can get it done, but enough about asking for patience and hearing any philosophical bogus quotes.

as of now, November 9 can be a significant Sagarin Toilet bowl event. The point spread would be a pick em.
