Idk what was worse about this game. Whitewater losing, or the wartburg camerapeople literally not doing their jobs half the time.
No doubt. How many passes did we hear about but never saw? No replays either? Amateur hour...

Kickers killed us.

Was that last fumble legit? Who knows? No replay could show it.

Defense just couldn't get a stop in the end. Wow.

So much for Leonard staying with Fickell....his resume was great, but he couldn't do it I guess...
Perhaps UWW calls Don Beebe up for a meeting?

Does anyone know, has any WIAC team given up more points in a conference game than than the 73 the Blugolds allowed Stout today?


We've had a couple of losses by larger margins.  1889 106-0 vs UW, 1900 100-0 vs UW.  One that ties, 1984 73-7, vs Northern Iowa and one pretty close, 1976 70-14, vs Northern Michigan.



Every one of those teams are public schools.  Figures.

My God I almost lost my beer reading that!

I feel like I've lost track of this during the basketball season, but believe that was moved to Week 1 a while back.

Yes, UW-W's non-con schedule is:

Sept. 3.     At St. John's
Sept.  10   UMHB
Sept.  17   at Berry

Looking at the rest of the schedule, I dont see the Bluegolds or Falcons on the conference schedule. Is the schedule still being released? seems odd to release a partial schedule.

The fact that these games are scheduled says volumes about all four programs. Much respect!

Wow. The CRU were just rediculous. Those receivers were on another level, as they displayed when we saw them. NCC looked like a copy of UWW, but simply wow is all I can say. The best team won, and if you are gonna lose, lose to the champs.

Outmatched is an understatement. Wow, I don't post very often, I just read the real scuttlebutt from the insiders like Bleed here to see what is going on with the team. Many, many posts here that point out some great thoughts, such as WarhawkDad showing that the regular season stats don't paint a complete picture. Every year the Warhawks suit up and take the field in the playoffs against D3 superstars with numbers that are unbelievable. Those guys leave humbled and defeated. What I see when I watch our team is nobody really stands out as a Captain America, where the team is completely built around. I don't see guys that stand apart from the rest physically like a man among men that should be at Ohio State or something. I see a team that functions excellently as a unit, every guy steps into their roles and performs as expected. The coaching staff is doing a remarkable job with preparation, planning, and teaching. Now, I'm not saying that UWW isn't blessed with outstanding athletes that as a whole, are fantastic, and they can play against anybody. That is nice to have, we know we won't lose the battle up front, and you arent going to outrun us. When I played so many moons ago, the WSUC top teams were big, strong dudes that lost in the playoffs because they lacked speed. Not anymore. These current teams are a pleasure to watch and I'm just so proud to be an alum.

Now, a tough as nails smashmouth contest with a familiar foe awaits. One should never, ever look past them. Somehow Mount survives after being down all game. The defending champs await them, what a game that should be. Mount was finally pushed today, and I don't think NCC has really been challenged all year outside of Wheaton.

That was truly an outstanding game. Looks like a matchup with the Johnnies next. Just impressive game, congrats Warhawks. Keep playing like that and nobody can beat you. Was the oshkosh game a wake up?

I gotta say that locker room facility is absolutely gorgeous. Talk about impressing any recruit walking through. It was so concrete and spartan when we played there, and they were still the class of D3 THEN!

After getting completely soaked in the 2nd qtr, looked at the radar and the saw it was gonna rain all day, the wifey demanded we take it in for the day. Great seeing you Kris, and all the other guys that made it in. And Coach Brez still helping out.

The BIG 10 should be ashamed for letting Rutgers in the conference. Even Maryland coming in was essentially a mistake. These are not midwest schools in any fashion. They would struggle in the MAC in most sports as well. A decent school academically, but they are a disgrace for the conference much like Northwestern was for many decades. However, if Lance gets the job I would have nothing but support for him and his guys, and would enjoy getting to see him on TV more than once a year when a random Buffalo game gets on local TV.

How many D3 coaches go big time, have some success, and get an even better job? It's cool when you actually know the guy and some of his staff.

Local weather here is showing a rather nasty weather system leaving California and hitting Texas on Saturday with heavy rain and/or ice and winds. So much for nice weather...

Would it be a fair statement to think that had the NCAA committee seeded differently, a better, more realistic bracket would have seen the Johnnies get the #1 East Seed, and put in HSU as an at-large in the East as well. ? Travel is travel. Its the friggin playoffs man. That would have been a great way to see what HSU really is and would have given the proper respect to the Johnnies.

We really hope to welcome them to the Perk next weekend with the current pairings, so let it rip. I'd like to watch both games at the same time.

They had the weight, but the look of them showed that it wasn't GOOD weight, as it jiggled a lot. Body composition makes a difference. The UWW defense looked skinny in comparison. Big and fast.

SNC QB made some ridiculous completions, just like are you effing kidding me???? He landed that? WOW. Big QB draw play game them like 40 yards rushing on 1 play didn't it?

I went to the game expecting a triple option offense that could rush the ball but 80 yards surrendered wasn't much. It was that danged halfback to the flat pass, over and over and over. UWW couldn't stop it effectively until late in the game.

UWW after halftime came out with fire in their eyes and really cranked it up.

SNC was much better than I expected to see. Great season.

A couple observations we had from the game:
Huge crowd for UNC, very loud, especially in the 1st half when they keep making incredible completions. That QB made some ridiculous plays, especially the 1st TD while running for his life.

We didn't know what was going on there at the end when Bullis was yelling at the refs, the whole crowd went quiet trying to hear it. Bullis made some big gesture and the SNC crowd all seemed to laugh at him or something, that's when our #11 pointed at the scoreboard and got that penalty. We all thought that was a late hit out of bounds and could not believe no foul was called on it.

1st half UWW caught some killer penalties that were drive killers, the pass interference was pretty weak. Cut block that was actually two different players. Unfortunate calls. Seemed to clean up in the 2nd half.

After halftime, the Warhawks came out and made some statements pretty quickly. Pretty much knocked UNC on their backs. Much more life in them and emotion, they came out ready to play after half. 

The stats for the triple option attack didn't look right with SNC only getting about 80 yards for the game rushing, (many tackles for losses) and over 200 passing. Big credit to their QB, he was shooting lasers out there on guys that were generally well covered.

If the Warhawks play like they did in the 2nd half last week against Bethel, its going to be quite a game indeed.  Interesting Wildcat formations by the Hawks early in the game, maybe testing their defense out as that formation just killed Eureka.

Totally agree.

But, at least you get some coverage. I see all the Wisconsin college scores covered and maybe UW-O and SNC clips when I do see something. On GB stations, they at least exist. In Milwaukee, absolutely nothing at all. I'd be happy with the various scores on the ticker down below...

Charity walks with 200 some people get 10 minutes of air time...now THAT is something nobody actually cares about, but they have live reporting!
