Did you guys look at the RMC/JCU boxscore?  Time of possession was 44:05/15:55 in favor of the Yellow Jackets and they got 4 Interceptions (one was a pick six).  No wonder they won!

It was a very good game. Jacket defense, including the pass defense was strong all game. I've criticized the pass defense in previous years and after the opening game this season vs John's Hopkins, but since then it has been better and better. Four interceptions today. JCU defense was also good. A well played game -- Jackets penalized twice, JCU zero penalties. JCU special teams blocked an extra point and a punt that got returned for a TD. It looked like the momentum might swing to JCU at that point, but the Jackets remained poised.

Congratulaions!!! And good luck next week against Muhlunberg.

Congrats to Randolph Macon.  Nice win today.

The ODAC has very good football.  As a conference the ODAC is 2/5 over the last 6 years. Last year there were only 2 teams to keep Mt. Union under 31 points - WL and MHB. Today's win was no fluke RMC wore them out. The ODAC champ seldom gets a home game and typically is playing a very highly ranked team in the first round. I would argue that every ODAC is better than every OAC team except MU and JCU. JCU had not played a tough game since September. RMC played one every week since week one.

RMC is very good. If not for a very bad play call late in the 4th last year against WL that resulted in an interception, they would be the 3 time defending ODAC champions.  The score predictions by the D3 Football team were all lopsided for JCU.  I was surprised RMC won but not shocked it was a close game.

Congratulations to RMC and their fans. Good luck next week!

The color guy for JCU was hilarious.  He was so shocked to see a team stick it to the Blue Streaks!  I laughed at his comments from start to finish.

Is RMC's win the biggest upset of round one?

You're right I know I don't know but I could argue it. I could also argue that you also don't know and I could argue the NCAC is not much better.  There are not any Kenyon's, Oberlin's, Hiram's in the ODAC. There's also no Wilmington's or Otterbein's.

Point was (I'm sure you missed it) was EVERY week RMC plays a team (very) capable of beating them. As do all ODAC teams. JCU does not.

I find it funny that you seem so offended, put off, confused, angered (you pick the emotion) by so many of my comments. It's been years since I posted on the NCAC board. Many because I don't keep up with the NCAC or any other conference for that matter. But it's cool after 3 years and 4 seasons ago that you still keep up with HSC and I guess the ODAC.

But hey our favorite teams have been left out of the playoffs for the last several years. So I get it. But please try not to be so offended, put off, confused, angered well you pick the emotion.

Is an interesting debate strategy. 

Just to clarify, I'm not angry or offended or whatever emotion YOU choose.  You said something incredibly wrong, and I raised an eyebrow (or a funny gif in this case).  Just maybe do an iota of homework before you make broad declarations like "every ODAC team is better than every other OAC team except MU and JCU" which is actually absurd.

I don't need to do any research.  You're always there to tell me when I'm wrong. I like keeping you on your toes and wasting your time.

So tell me how much research did you do?

I'm not sure I agree with this statement either.  Marietta and Baldwin Wallace, for example, have been quite competitive in the OAC of late.

Sure I used hyperbole.  But I still think from bottom to top the ODAC is a much better (certainly much more competitive) conference than the bottom to 3rd in the OAC.
