Carnegie-Mellon wins the Academic Bowl, 29-23, in OT, knocking CWRU from the PAC title share.

W&J is outright champions, the school's 26th PAC championship.
CWRU, already doubtful to make NCAA with a win, out with this loss.
Been wrong before.  Will be wrong again.

Drat! Paybacks are a bitch.

Props to CMU for keeping Spartans out of end zone. Too many red zone chances came up empty or just FGs.

Bob Gregg, just wondering if that home game scenario for W&J in first round is still rattling around in your brain.

Bob.Gregg

It's not making a lot of noise right now.  But I just looked up there and it's still there.....I don't think it's dead, but it's certainly in a deep coma.

Bob, I think the D3 guys are on target....a road trip to John Carroll.

Bob.Gregg

Well, it's a road trip, but NOT to John Carroll.
W&J opens on the road at Centre College, Danville, KY.

Three hours from Knoxville. We will make the trip.

We always go to Cleveland for Thanksgiving with my son and dil. A couple of years ago we stopped in Alliance for a second round game on the way home. Not a great experience, so not sure we will do that again if W&J gets past Centre, but we will see.

Fulford injured his ankle last week and sounds like he may be out awhile.  Due to the backup's performance, many are saying it's a big story. 

I wouldn't cancel that trip to Alliance just yet.  Of course, you got a tough(?) Centre squad in round 1..

Oh, I'm sure you are.  I miss living in Cincy so I could be in Alliance at any time I wanted. 

Maybe I shouldn't listen to the sky-is-falling fans on the OAC page...  hope the kid heals up.  I think you may see red in the Stagg. 

That said - the Saint John's experience was COOL but not so great for TMU as they ran into a buzz-saw.  This Johnnie offense reminded me a lot of some of the vintage Mount Union passing offenses.

Hats off to Westminster for a really tough game.    If Wesley hadn't won the turnover war (4 for Wesley vs 5 for Westminster) this game would have ended very differently.  Well done.

Happy Thanksgiving, all.

Ditto.

And I did come across one news story today:

Cam Brown grew up in the NBA and ended up a Division III football sack leader
By Eric Storms
STAFF WRITER
1 day ago

An elementary school-aged Cam Brown stood in his father's office inside Quicken Loans Arena wearing a funky shirt, shorts and two mismatched tennis shoes. Much of his body was marked up in Sharpie. He believed that if he looked as embarrassing as possible, his mom wouldn't take him to see the his father, Mike Brown, then-head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers.

But Brown had thought wrong. His mom forced him to go wearing exactly that and Mike remembers just about falling over when he saw his son in the arena. Growing up, despite always playing sports, Brown's favorite pastime was reading, Mike said, and he'd often rather do so than watch the NBA. That's something Brown had to do often with a father who has coached in the NBA for 18 years, including head coaching stints with Cleveland (2005-10, 2013-14) and the Los Angeles Lakers (2011-13).

Years later, Brown is still a basketball fan, but he found a different passion: football. Brown developed into one of the most elite pass rushers in Division III football, finishing his senior season at Case Western Reserve second in the country in sacks with 15 total.

I noticed that he was not announced with the seniors on Senior Day.  He should have another year of eligibility since he did not participate in football his freshman year at UC.
