East Tennessee State (1-7) @ Robert Morris (2-6) Saturday, Nov. 7, 2015 at Noon Joe Walton Stadium (3,000) - Moon Township, Pa.
Radio: ESPN 970 AM (Chris Shovlin - play-by-play & Brian Cleary - color) Audio on the internet at: www.970espn.com / Live Video: www.necfrontrow.com Top Story - The Robert Morris University football team returns home for its non-conference finale this Saturday, Nov. 7, as it meets a first-time foe by hosting East Tennessee State at Noon at Joe Walton Stadium. RMU was deadlocked at the half last week at Central Connecticut State, but the Colonials ran out of steam and fell on the road. The Buccaneers are coming off a 42-9 victory over Warner a week ago. Robert Morris will be the second Northeast Conference school that East Tennessee State has faced this season as the Bucs hosted Saint Francis to begin October. Wide receiver Kyle Buss earned a weekly NEC honor this week, giving Robert Morris a league-leading nine weekly awards this season. Perhaps more impressively, Robert Morris has tied a school record, which had not been achieved since 1997, in having seven distinct studentathletes honored with weekly accolades in a year. Entering the final month of the season, the Colonials rank among the top 30 nationally in both rushing and passing defense. RMU will make the short jaunt east to play Saint Francis next Saturday in what will be the Colonials’ road finale. Quick Stat of the Afternoon - Redshirt freshman Kyle Buss earned weekly recognition from multiple sources this week. He was named Northeast Conference Rookie of the Week and was also tabbed Honorable Mention National Freshman Player of the Week by STATS. Buss caught eight passes for 160 yards last Saturday at Central Connecticut. The 160 receiving yards represented a new RMU freshman record and ranks as the sixth-highest figure in single-game RMU history and the best such mark by a Colonial in over eight years. His 160 receiving yards are the highest single-game figure by a NEC non-senior this season and the most by any NEC rookie since at least 2007. With his performance Saturday, Buss tied the single-season freshman reception record at RMU, as he now has 34 grabs on the campaign. Buss currently ranks third among FCS freshmen in receiving yards (523) this season. The RMU rookie record for a season is 624. Saturday's Opponent - Saturday’s game between Robert Morris and East Tennessee State marks the inaugural meeting between the two programs. Robert Morris owns a record of 20-15-1 (.569) when facing off with an opponent for the first time. East Tennessee State is one of four new programs on RMU’s schedule this year, the most new foes the Colonials have faced since their inaugural season. This is also the sixth consecutive season in which RMU has played at least one new opponent. Of RMU’s previous 36 games against a first-time opponent, 17 have come at home. In those games, RMU is 13-4 (.765), and it has won three straight such outings. On This Date (Nov. 7) in Robert Morris Football History - Robert Morris has played on two prior occasions on this date, and it came away a winner both times. Unlike this week, both of those affairs were non-conference contests played on the road. The first time RMU competed on this date came in 1998 at Saint Francis. The Red Flash struck first with a field goal, but their advantage would be short-lived. Tim Levcik (1998-2001) threw one touchdown in the first and another in the second quarter to stake the guests to a 14-3 lead at the break. The rookie quarterback threw for three more scores in the second 30 minutes, finishing with a RMU rookie record five overall, to lead the Colonials to a comfortable 35-3 victory. Robert Morris dominated the contest, outgaining the Red Flash 414-185, as it also held a +2 margin in turnovers. Donald Dorsey (1998-99) ran for 100 yards on just 10 carries and also caught a 15-yard touchdown pass. John O’Connell (1995-98) posted two interceptions and a fumble recovery in his final NEC game.

2015 Robert Morris Football Game Notes vs. East Tennessee State (11/7/15) - Page 3
Head Coach John Banaszak Second Season - Eastern Michigan ’75 John Banaszak became the second head football coach in Robert Morris University history in December 2013. He served as an assistant coach and assistant head coach for the Colonials for 11 consecutive years prior to taking over the top spot. Banaszak was selected as Coach-In-Waiting in January 2012, allowing for a simple transition following the 2013 campaign. At the end of the 2013 season, he was named as the Assistant Coach of the Year at the FCS level as selected by the American Football Coaches Association. He was one of five coaches selected for dedication to their teams and communities. He was the first RMU coach, as well as the first from the NEC, to claim this honor. The 2013 season was Banaszak's sixth and final as assistant head coach for Robert Morris. Among his numerous duties with the program before becoming head coach, he was responsible for tutoring the defensive line and the special teams unit. Under Banaszak's guidance in 2013, Robert Morris led the NEC in net punting, punt return defense and punt return average. Banaszak was also a key component in instructing a RMU defense that finished second in the NEC in total defense within league play in 2013. Robert Morris finished its regular season ranked among the top 25 nationally in at least seven defensive categories including total defense. With Banaszak's assistance, RMU has led the NEC in total defense four times in the past 11 years and ranked among the top four nine times in the past 12 seasons. Banaszak was a key component to a 2010 defense that led the NEC in total defense as the Colonials claimed the NEC's inaugural berth in the FCS Playoffs. In 2006, he helped tutor an RMU defense that led I-AA in total defense, allowing an average of just 228.36 yards per game. 10 of the 13 players in school history to earn All-NEC recognition on the defensive line have come under the tutelage of Banaszak, including Nolan Nearhoof (200912), who was named the 2012 NEC Defensive Player of the Year after breaking both the school and league records for career sacks. Nearhoof would go on to earn AllAmerica honors, becoming the third Colonial defensive lineman to claim an AllAmerica nod under Banaszak in a seven-year span. As much as Banaszak's presence has been felt on the defensive side of the ball, the same can be said on special teams. He helped five distinct Colonials win an award at return specialist within the span of one decade. A graduate of Eastern Michigan, Banaszak signed as a free agent with the Pittsburgh Steelers prior to the 1975 season and was one of only three rookies to make the defending Super Bowl champion team out of training camp. Primarily a special teams player on Pittsburgh's Super Bowl X championship team, Banaszak started five games the following season and then started at both right end and inside tackle in 1977 before suffering a knee injury that forced him to the injured reserve list. Between 1978 and 1980, Banaszak started 45 regular-season games at defensive end as the Steelers won back-to-back Super Bowls. In Super Bowl XIII, Banaszak recorded six tackles, including a pair of sacks, and a fumble recovery in a 35-31 win over the Dallas Cowboys, which garnered him Defensive Player of the Game honors. The following year, Banaszak helped the Steelers to a 31-19 victory over the Rams.

Last Time Out - Robert Morris stayed step for step with Central Connecticut State during the first half, but the Blue Devils pulled away late to post a 34-0 victory … After shutting out first-place Central Connecticut in the first half, the RMU defense did yield three scores in the second half, but only one of the scoring drives was longer than 40 yards … It was the fifth time in eight games this season that the Colonials have shut out an opponent for an entire half … Sophomore cornerback Drew Allen and redshirt junior cornerback Marcelis Branch each notched nine tackles … Junior Zach Cooper contributed six tackles, including 1.5 tackles for loss, while making his first career start. Just For Kicks - RMU has done well at covering its kickoffs thus far in 2015. Junior Connor Shennan has tallied 16 touchbacks on 27 attempts, the highest percentage in the NEC. However, even when his kicks have not resulted in touchbacks, RMU is holding its opponents to just 15.2 yards per return, tied for the second best mark in the FCS. The Right Gear - Safety Andy Smigiera has demonstrated an ability to knock down the football this year, be it on special teams or defense. The junior ranks second in the league, and among the top 25 in the FCS, in passes defended (1.25 per game). He has notched a pass breakup or an interception in seven of eight games this season. Additionally, he has blocked two kicks while notching 41 total tackles on the year. Don't Be Offensive - Through eight games, Robert Morris has scored five non-offensive touchdowns. It has scored twice via an interception and also from a kick return, a punt return and a blocked punt. The school record for non-offensive TD in a season is six. Interestingly, all five of its unique touchdowns this season have come in home games. Stock Watch - Mike Stojkovic was named Northeast Conference Defensive Player of the Week for the second time this year Oct. 5. He led RMU with 11 stops in its win at Wagner and had earned his first honor after helping limit nationally ranked Youngstown State Sept. 12, as he posted 11 tackles, 1.5 tackles for loss and a forced fumble against the Penguins. He has hit double digits in stops in five of eight games this season and totaled 6.5 TFL. Stojkovic is currently second in the league in tackles per game (8.5). No Typical November - When Robert Morris takes the field Saturday, fans will be witnessing a relatively rare sight as the Colonials will play a regular-season, non-conference game in November for just the 11th time in program history. Four of the 10 prior occasions came before RMU joined a conference in football. It will be the first such contest for the Colonials since 2003 and the first such tilt at home since 1998. RMU is 6-4 (.600) in November non-conference games in the regular season. Dante's Peak - True freshman Dante Satcher claimed Special Teams Player of the Week honors from the NEC Oct. 12 after returning a kickoff 96 yards for a touchdown against Sacred Heart. It was the fourth kickoff return for a touchdown in program history, but it was the longest one of the quartet. It also stands as the second-longest touchdown of any type in RMU history and the longest since 1996. With his award, RMU became the first school in league history to win the special teams honor in four straight releases. Break It Up - The median completion percentage across the FCS in 2014 was 57.6%. Robert Morris has allowed only three of its past 26 opponents to reach that mark. In fact, eight times in this stretch, the Colonials have held their opponent under a 45% rate. In each of the past two seasons, RMU had a stretch where it held its opponent under a 50% completion mark in three straight games. Sack Master - Redshirt junior Austin Trgovcich had a monster game Oct. 10 as he notched career highs in tackles (12), tackles for loss (3.5) and sacks (2.5). Trgovcich leads the league in tackles per game among defensive linemen (6.4) and is first overall in the NEC in sacks per game (0.71). He missed last week's contest due to an injury. Start Me Up - Nick Faraci enters Saturday's game with the most consecutive starting assignments of all active Colonials as he has served as the center for 41 straight games. On defense, Marcelis Branch has the most total starts among active Colonials with 28, but Andy Smigiera and Mike Stojkovic are tied for the longest active streak (19).

2015 Robert Morris Football Game Notes vs. East Tennessee State (11/7/15) - Page 6 Special Special Teams - Warren Robinson was named the NEC’s Special Teams Player of the Week Sept. 21. The rookie returned three punts for 89 yards Sept. 19, including a 66-yard return for a touchdown. It marked only the fourth punt return for a TD in RMU history, but it was the first ever by a freshman. In fact, he is the only true freshman among the 123 FCS programs to return a (non-blocked) punt for a touchdown in 2015. Robinson’s 66-yard scamper was the second longest punt return in RMU history. He leads the NEC and ranks among the top 10 in the FCS in punt return average (14.9). Long And Short of It - The Robert Morris defense has refused to let opponents drive the length of the field for scores in recent weeks. The Colonials have allowed only two scoring drive over 50 yards in their past four games. 12 of the last 14 drives RMU has yielded that produced points have been under 50 yards. Making the Grade - Current redshirt senior offensive lineman Nick Faraci and recently graduated wide receiver Duane Mitchell were both named Capital One Academic AllDistrict First Team last November. It was the second straight year Faraci earned this honor and the first such award for Mitchell, as they continued the trend of academic successes in the football program. These two accolades gave the Colonial program at least one Academic All-District honoree in each of the past 12 seasons, a span in which Robert Morris has taken home 23 overall selections. To put that in perspective, no other NEC school has an active streak of football Academic All-District selections longer than three years. Mitchell, a finance major, became the first RMU wide receiver to ever claim this honor. Not Halfway Home – Entering the 2015 season, the team trailing at the half had won only 13.5% of games all-time in Robert Morris history. However, the team losing at the break in RMU’s games this season has a remarkable 5-2 record. Times Two - One of the mainstays that returned to the RMU defense in 2015 is redshirt senior Forrest Mason. Mason earned his second straight All-NEC honor in 2014, making him just one of five Colonials ever to claim multiple all-league honors as a defensive lineman. What made that accolade even more impressive is that the league’s coaches voted him to the team despite the fact that he was only able to appear in seven games. Mason is third in the NEC in tackles per game among defensive linemen (5.4) and leads the team with 8.5 TFL. He returned his first career interception for a TD Sept. 19. They'll Be Back - One interesting way to examine the state of the Colonial roster is to look at the number of players that started the season opener who will be finished with their careers after this season. Of RMU’s 22 offensive and defensive starters from its opener, only five Colonials—two on offense, three on defense—will have used all of their NCAA eligibility when the 2015 campaign is completed. For Starters - When Robert Morris took the field in its 2014 season finale at Duquesne, it sported its 11th distinct offensive starting lineup in the 11th and final game. RMU had sported different lineups on offense in 21 consecutive games before it had a repeat in its starters last week. 23 distinct Colonials started on offense in the 2014 season. Through eight games in 2015, 19 Colonials have started on offense. Wrap Him Up – One game after Jake Tkach posted a career-best 16 tackles, Gerald Ferguson tallied 15 against Duquesne Oct. 24. It marked the first time since 2009 that multiple Colonials contributed 15+ tackle efforts in one season. It was the first time since 2007 that two Colonials achieved the feat in back-to-back games within a season. The Nurse Will See You - RMU's starting center, redshirt senior Nick Faraci, became the fifth Colonial in school history, and the first on the offensive side of the ball, to earn a prestigious Academic All-America award this past December. However, that may not even be his most impressive feat. Faraci graduated from RMU in May with the highest grade point average in his nursing class. He subsequently passed his nursing board exams in the summer to earn his registered nurse (RN) license. Faraci, who owns a 3.94 cumulative GPA, worked in four area hospitals as part of his clinical rotations over the past few years.

No Passing Zone - The Robert Morris defense did well in keeping opposing offenses from moving the ball through the air near the end zone last year. The Colonials grabbed eight interceptions in 2014 within 20 yards of the end zone they were defending. RMU has tallied five such picks in the first eight games of 2015, giving it 13 grabs inside its own 20 in its past 19 games. Seven Colonials have contributed to that mark with Andy Smigiera leading the way with five. The Third Phase - Connor Shennan is the only two-time winner of the Northeast Conference Special Teams Player of the Week accolade in 2015. The junior was a perfect 3-for-3 on field goals Oct. 3 at Wagner, including connecting on the game-winner in the final minute. He is one of three NEC athletes to hit three field goals in a game in 2015 and became the fifth Colonial to achieve that feat. Shennan had reset his career-long with a 46-yarder the week prior while drilling two of his three kickoffs for touchbacks. Shennan took over punting duties last week, due to an injury to a teammate, and averaged 41.0 yards on his five punt attempts. Back-to-Back - Sophomore strong safety Ryan Richards Jr. was named Northeast Conference Defensive Player of the Week in the first release of the season. It marked the second straight weekly release in which he was honored, as he claimed rookie accolades to close 2014. Richards grabbed a pair of interceptions in the season opener, his fourth career start, while adding six tackles and a pass breakup. Richards is tied for the league lead with three interceptions in 2015, and owns four in his career, and has tallied 45 tackles and three pass breakups. Ground Game - Robert Morris posted a sizeable advantage in rushing yards Sept. 26 at No. 6 South Dakota State (228-125). This was due in large part to the Colonials averaging 6.0 yards per carry compared to 3.5 for the Jackrabbits. It marked the 14th time in program history, but just the fourth since 2000, in which a Colonial team averaged at least 6.0 yards per carry. That effort helped RMU rush for 200+ yards in back-to-back games for the first time since 2010. Meet Mr. Smith - Kimani Smith became the third distinct Colonial in four weeks to earn Defensive Player of the Week honors from the NEC Sept. 28. He posted eight tackles, six of which were solo, along with a tackle for loss, an interception and two pass breakups against No. 6 South Dakota State, helping him earn the second weekly accolade of his career. Smith is tied for third on RMU in tackles (46) and third in tackles for loss (7.5) despite missing the last two games due to injury. He ranks among the top 10 in the NEC in both of those categories.

2015 Robert Morris Football Game Notes vs. East Tennessee State (11/7/15) - Page 8 The Founding Father - The one constant in the first two decades of Colonial football was former head coach Joe Walton. Walton, the former NFL tight end and head coach of the New York Jets, started the program from scratch, completing everything from hiring assistants to purchasing equipment. He was named NEC Coach of the Year four times in 18 seasons and guided RMU to a pair of NCAA I-AA mid-major national crowns during his time on the sidelines. Walton, currently a special assistant to the athletic director at Robert Morris, was inducted into the RMU Athletic Hall of Fame in November 2013. Get To The Chopper - A quick glance at RMU’s record when broken down proves how important it is the Colonials get off to a good start in contests. When Robert Morris is leading at halftime, the program owns an all-time record of 89-16 (.848). When trailing at the break, Robert Morris owns a mark of 15-82-1 (.158). Even going into halftime tied is beneficial, as the Colonials own an overall record of 14-10 (.583) in such games. The Magic Mark - Since the Colonials began play in 1994, there have been 77 games in which Robert Morris has scored 30 or more points. In those contests RMU boasts a record of 72-5 (.935), including a record of 43-5 (.896) in games in which the team scores between 30 and 39 points. In games in which the Colonials score 40 or more points, RMU is a perfect 29-0. RMU Football Historical Tidbits - The inaugural running back at Robert Morris, the late Tim Hall (1994-95), rushed for 2,908 yards in his two seasons as a Colonial. Hall still owns the FCS season and career records for yards per carry, with his season record of 8.7 yards per carry set in 1994 and his twoyear career record of 7.4 established in 1994 and 1995 ... Hall also ranks fourth all-time in the FCS in both rushing yards per game (153.1) and allpurpose yards per game (194.8) ... Former Colonial linebacker James Noel (2002-05) ranks sixth in the FCS record book for career tackles per game (10.7), while his career tackle total of 437 takedowns ranks 15th all-time ... Former linebacker and assistant coach Alex DiMichele (2008-10) averaged 10 tackles per game over his three years in a Robert Morris uniform, which ranks 13th all-time in the FCS record book ... Robert Morris has topped the nation in passing defense twice in the past 16 years, based on passing efficiency defense rating. The Colonials topped the charts in 1999 (with a 80.80 rating) as well as in 2006 (with a 88.70 rating). Did You Know? - Robert Morris owns the all-time FCS record for the most consecutive quarters while holding an opponent scoreless. During the 1996 season, the Colonials went 15 straight quarters without allowing a single point. In fact, the record-setting streak occurred at the beginning of the season. RMU posted three straight shutouts -- 20-0 against Mercyhurst (9/7), 38-0 against Butler (9/14) and 7-0 against Towson State (9/21) -- to open the campaign and then held Central Connecticut State (9/28) scoreless for the first three quarters before finally allowing a point for the first time all season. In all, Robert Morris went 234:04 before allowing a point in 1996. RMU went 9-2 (.818) in 1996, claiming a share of the NEC championship, and conceded just 12.9 points per game.

Robert Morris Captains Head coach John Banaszak announced after the team's final scrimmage that four Colonials will serve as captains in the 2015 season.
OFFENSE Redshirt senior Nick Faraci and senior Max Robertson are the team’s captains on offense. Faraci has started each of RMU’s past 41 games at center and was selected as an Academic All-American in 2014. Robertson started 31 games at left guard over the past three seasons, but he was shifted down a spot to left tackle prior to the 2015 season. DEFENSE Redshirt seniors Forrest Mason and Mike Stojkovic are the team’s captains on defense. Mason is a two-time AllNortheast Conference honoree and is one of just five defensive lineman in RMU history to earn multiple allleague honors. He owns 130 tackles and 13.5 sacks in his career. He became the first Colonial defensive lineman to be named NEC Defensive Player of the Week in over 15 years last October. Stojkovic, who served as a captain in the latter half of the 2014 season, was ranked among the top five in the league in tackles per game last year and totaled 82 stops. He owns 168 tackles and 18.0 tackles for loss in a Colonial uniform. The Texas native began his collegiate career at FBS institution North Texas.

Robert Morris By the Numbers
Colonials in the NFL
1-
The first Northeast Conference program to claim an automatic berth in the NCAA FCS Playoffs in 2010
2-
Number of teams Robert Morris faced from the Missouri Valley Football Conference in 2015, widely regarded as the best league at the FCS level
3-
Super Bowl championships won by RMU head coach John Banaszak as a defensive lineman for the Pittsburgh Steelers
4-
Number of distinct Colonials who were named NEC Rookie of the Week in 2014, tying a league record
6 - Northeast Conference championships (1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2010) for RMU in the 20-year history of the league
8 - Number of sacks RMU registered Oct. 3 at Wagner, a singlegame school record against a Division I opponent
10 - This is the 10th consecutive year RMU played Dayton, the only non-conference foe on its 2015 slate it has faced previously
Since Robert Morris played its first season in 1994, three former Colonials have appeared in a game in the National Football League (NFL), the most among current NEC members in this span as of August 2015. Many players have “rewritten” record books at various schools. At Robert Morris, however, Tim Hall wrote the record book. Hall rushed for 2,908 yards on 393 carries in his two seasons in a Colonial uniform and was named an All-American by the Associated Press in 1995. He was drafted by the Oakland Raiders in the sixth round (183rd player overall) in the 1996 NFL Draft. In 1997, he led the Raiders in yards per carry average with 5.2 and was second in rushing yards to Napolean Kaufman. On Sept. 30, 1998, Hall was shot and killed in Kansas City at age 24. Hank Fraley, who played on the offensive line for Robert Morris from 1996-1999, carved out a niche for himself in the NFL for over a decade. Fraley was a three-time Mid-Major All-American during his years at RMU before he was signed by the Pittsburgh Steelers to a free-agent contract in April 2000. Fraley was later claimed by the Eagles and started at center for Philadelphia for the entire 2001 season, helping the team to the 2002 NFC Championship game. For four straight seasons with Fraley starting at center from 2002-05, the Eagles appeared in the NFC Championship game. In 2005, Fraley became the first RMU alum to appear in the Super Bowl when he started at center against the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XXXIX. Former RMU defensive back Robb Butler played for the San Diego Chargers during the 2004 season and was featured in special teams situations, including returning kickoffs.
15 - All-time
Northeast Conference Offensive, Defensive or Rookie of the Year selections by Colonials
23 - Number of CoSIDA Academic All-District selections earned by Colonial football student-athletes in the past 12 seasons
27 - Number of Colonials who earned their first-career start during the 2014 season
96 - Number of yards true freshman Dante Satcher returned a kickoff for a touchdown Oct. 10 vs. Sacred Heart
135 - All-time All-Northeast Conference First or Second Team selections collected by Colonials
160 - Number of receiving yards Kyle Buss tallied last Saturday, breaking the RMU single-game rookie record
