HPU looks good.  I'm glad HSU has already put them away.

Jusy AC and TLU left...HSU automatic bid!

Mt Union and HSU fell just as I thought they would!

The pollsters are better than we give them credit for!

Mt. Union losing was a shock and I imagine they fall somewhere like 4-6.

HSU will likely drop out of the top 10 IMHO.

Wow...I was certainly surprised by the UMHB win.  Not only did I think they were going to lose...I thought is was going to be bad!  So much for predictions...

Oh, and Baylor and OU are going into double OT now.

Hopefully the students will do a better job of cheering this weekend; better yet, maybe they will cheer so loudly and obnoxiously that the UMHB players will be distracted. One can dream can't he?

What, afraid MHB will bring the A-game so they need to be distracted?

Hey, if the game was in Belton the Cru would be yelling and trying to be obnoxious too.  That's why they call it home field advantage.

HSU is my pick for the top team in the ASC.

The NCAA is so dumb that I bet they go to a BCS-style poll that is determinative and bowl games for D-III.  Sheesh.

That is true HSUpt about their ignorance to great football but there are two additional problems (in my humble opinion).  One is that the game is a social gathering for so many of the students.  Half of them turn their backs on the game to talk to one another...what a shame!  The second problem is the disbanding of the Redneck Posse.  Those fools were the catalyst for the students; but now it appeared to me that they were down to one lonely posse memeber (can one guy be a posse?) and he was lame at best.

Hopefully the students will do a better job of cheering this weekend; better yet, maybe they will cheer so loudly and obnoxiously that the UMHB players will be distracted.  One can dream can't he?

Plus lets not forget that many of these D-III schools offer work-study scholarships to their players as well.  I wouldn't doubt that a grayshirted player would get the same...

If someone wants to play badly enough to pay the costs of grayshirting, then I say let him (or her I guess).  What's the harm?  Oh that's right, there is none.

I hate the fact that I am unable to be in Abilene Saturday.

I was there last week though and was thoroughly impressed with the team.  The HSU students though left something to be desired.  When I was a student (4 years ago) we were loud and rowdy.  We stood the whole game.  We were interested, even in blowouts.  But that was then and boring, uninterested students are now.

I am sad.   :(

Two hints for UMHB players and coaches...don't punt to May and play good run defense...HSU has killed many opponents by running all over them after having a 25 yard punt return.

HSU-38
UMHB-24
