I must be pessimistic about the conference when my two least confident picks are my only two NACC wins. :(

I must be more pessimistic than you I only have one ;). Good luck to all the NACC teams today as they kick off their season. I'm thinking about heading to WLC to watch them take on Ripon.

Some early NACC scores.

Lake Forest 7
Concordia Chicago 0

End 1st

Aurora 7
Illinois Wesleyan 14

13:36 2nd

No update on the Carroll-Lakeland or the Augsburg/CUW game. Both  probably delayed because of some thunderstorms coming down the Lake Michigan shoreline in the last few hours. 50/50 chance CUC/LF could see some delay as well.

Go figure former NACC member Maranatha beats Martin Luther College 56-54 to snap a 11 game losing streak.

Pretty dismal showing by the NACC. A few observations based on flimsy evidence:

1) I was actually impressed with Benedictine's offensive showing. (I was watching the video between UM-ND plays). The new RB looked decisive and there were holes to run through. Schulz looked good - as you hope a senior should. Yes, Wheaton put up a lot of points, but they're expected to be a quality offensive bunch even without Hibben.

2) Is Augsburg that good? I still expect CUW to be one of the conference's better teams, but they gave up 38 (or something like that) in the first half.

3) Tough to tell what Aurora is. IWU is supposed to be a really good team so it might be comparing apples and oranges (like CUW/Augsburg or BU/Wheaton) but the Titans' QB went 18-20 in a totally dominating offensive performance.

4) Lakeland looked okay defensively (on video) for the quarter I watched - they were in the game until right at the end.

5) No idea about WLC. Someone who saw the game fill me in on how the "new" offense looked with Janousky as OC. (I'm assuming they run the spread now.)

6) No idea about Rockford either.

7) CUC - Uh oh. I thought that their run defense vs. Lake Forest actually looked decent for a pretty good chunk of the game. They gave up a couple big passes in the first half for TD's, but when you allow the opponent to start their drives on your own 22, 21, and 4 yard line in the 2nd half due to interceptions, you're asking a lot of your defense.
     And the offense.  Ah, the offense.        I'm already looking back fondly at the days of yesteryear . . .
     Basically CUC is playing what should be a JV roster on Saturdays. It would be one thing to be breaking in freshmen quarterbacks with a solid group of veterans around them, but they just don't have that luxury. They'll get better and there seems to be some talent there, but in the meantime it could be rough.

8) At least congrats to the offensive juggernaut that is Maranatha!

From what I listened to on the broadcast the WLC offense is more up-tempo with a bit of no-huddle with some spread looks to it. I think the offense kinda left the defense (who had their hands full in slowing down Ripon's option) in the dust with quick scoring plays. I think the offense did alright but kinda have to get some longer drives going in order to keep the defense fresh.

I was pleasantly surprised with Lakeland hanging with Carroll for the entire game. I thought Carroll was supposed to be in the hunt for the Midwest crown but it's only week one here.

I have to agree with Aurora. They got 21 on the board against IWU but the defense could not stop IWU's QB.

Kinda knew going into the Augsburg/CUW game that CUW had their work cut out for them especially against Augsburg who was picked to finish 3rd in the MIAC this year.

Still trying to figure out the BU game. Wheaton held BU to 97 yards on the ground but they got 14 points off of 2 Wheaton turnovers.

Rockford scored 20 on UWSP but 13 of those came after UWSP was up 49-7. It seems they will be throwing the ball around a bit more judging by the 353 passing yards in that game.

For a moment in the first quarter I though CUC was doing reasonably well, but then they were absolutely flattened from the second quarter onward. They are in for a long season.

I laughed when I saw the Maranatha score......Then again it was against a UMAC team.

USee

I posted some thoughts on Benedictine v Wheaton in the CCIW room but I was impressed by BU. They are going to surprise some people. Mcnulty is a very good running back and Schultz is a quality QB with Anders and Lopez out wide. Their OT are huge and physical. They are better than at least 3 teams in the CCIW in my opinion. I would be surprised if they don't win your league. dramatically better than the team Wheaton played a year ago.
