CIS 2012/2013

Are there any other CIS fans here? Who has some predictions for the upcoming season?

I know the AUS is going to be tough this year, Acadia brings back everyone from a very strong team, the players are a little older and more experienced. UPEI has really got things rolling with Coach Kendrick, although they are loosing a couple key players from last years squad, the ones that are returning are quality players, add in a huge recruiting class with talent and they will be a team to watch. CBU has one of, if not the biggest, recruiting classes in the Nation. First year Coach, Matt Skin is jumping in with both feet, they will be a surprise team to many....just due to the fact that basically the whole roster is new. UNB has slowly been adding quality players and will be able to upset teams this year, Dal and SMU are a mystery to me, and X could go either way, they have great talent coming back, but may struggle with lack of quality depth as they have lost a few players for various reasons. MUN....well who knows about that team from the Rock, they need a new direction for sure.

I just want to point out that the Queen's Gaels are off to a 2-0 start this season...equaling their total number of wins from last season already. lol. This marks the first time the Gaels have started 2-0 since the 2004, so things are on the rise to be sure, here in Kingston.

It's also worth noting that Friday night the Windsor Lancers pulled a major upset over Carleton. To put things in perspective, the Ravens did not lose a game against a CIS opponent all last season, and were 68-1 against CIS teams over the past 2 years.

The OUA sure is going to be an interesting place this season!
