Congratulations to Berry on the win today. CRU Nation looks forward the Vikings visit to the CRUthedral next week. Early forecast calls for beautiful weather - partly cloudy skies with highs in the 70s.

Congrats Berry on the win today. You have the big guys next but just play your game. Hey! You won and Centre won. Hurray for your conference. Are we going to have to watch out for the SAA from now on? And congrats to Centre. For your reward you get to come to Alliance to play The Machine. But you're playing well so who knows? See you Saturday! 😃🏈

Two nice wins for the SAA.  An excellent season for the conference. 

Two opportunities to rock the world next Saturday.  The odds are long.  But who would have thought the Citadel would be tied with Alabama at halftime.  So you just never know. 

Go Vikings and Colonels.

There were a decent number (200-300) in San Antonio last weekend, some of whom were very vocal  :D.   Of course the cost of a last-second flight is much higher than one they could schedule months in advance ...

I checked to see if they have an alumni chapter in Texas but apparently not (https://www.berry.edu/alumni/groups/)

We learned at that game there are about 60 Alumni living in southern Texas.

That's great. I hope a large number can show up. It makes for a better environment.

Was wondering about the status of the Centre QB.  The news article that I read said he went out and did not return. Mount Union QB  starter was on the sidelines wearing a boot on his ankle and it is believed that he will not be available this week either.  A shame for both squads if the worst occurs and both have to go with backups.  Mount has had three backups transfer to other schools for playing time and all were great when they got chances to play, so they were big losses for the program.
Current backups are untested, one is totally a runner who plays qb and the other is not too bad, but terribly inexperienced. Had great stats last week, but the receivers were the story.  Passes that went 10 yards or less in the air turned into long td passes because of the speed and talent of the receiving corps, which is as good as we have had. The defense is the story for Mount. They have scored as many TD's, 12, as they have given up.  Very fast, very physical, very opportunistic.  Would love to hear from Centre fans on this board or the Ohio Athletic Conference board. Good luck Colonels.

Great weekend for the SAA, impressive wins by Berry and Centre.  The Berry defense looked really good on Saturday.

Here's hoping for a few healed bodies and a great week of practice.

Ron Boerger

Hey raiderpa, we'd like to hear from Centre fans too.   They have been absent all year.

All-SAA teams are out.   Centre had nine first-team selections, Berry six; no other school had more than two.    CoTY goes to Berry's Kunczewski.  https://www.saa-sports.com/sports/fball/2018-19/files/2018_Football_All-SAA.pdf

Congratulations to all the SAA honorees, well deserved.

We found a Centre football fan - one who doesn't understand SOS, apparently - on Twitter.  https://twitter.com/martin_r_taylor/status/1064599627041787911

Mt. Union vs Centre will likely be a lot closer than most think.

Mt. Union has a 53rd ranked strength of schedule vs Centre having 7th. However, Mt. Union does put up big numbers & there is no way I would argue against that. I've seen film of both teams. They look almost identical on both sides of the ball. Athletes everywhere & great coaches.




@martin_r_taylor

It's perfectly fine. I hope your wrong concerning the score. Analytically, the final should be within 10 points. The teams numbers are EXTREMELY close across the board. When considering SOS between the two, the game will be close.

These predictions have never proven accurate, however, there is a first time for everything.
