Azusa Pacific 46, Whittier 21
Huntingdon 42, Faulkner 10

Malone 69, Anna Marie 0
Emory and Henry 20, Virginia-Wise 10
UW-Whitewater 37, Campbellsville 7

Corrections appreciated.

Add one more to that list, Ralph.

2.7 seconds. An average football player may need more time to score; a great one finds a way. I've seen greatness happen.

Yup, that was the list I had, 5-3 ... SouVa's status is weird though. I'm sure the NAIA will take the win.

That makes 5-3 Week 3, 18-10 so far this year; pretty consistently near 2-to-1 D3 over NAIA since '06, fwiw.

vs. NAIA (9-2 in Week 2, 13-7 in 2010)
No. 1 UW-Whitewater at Campbellsville (Mid-South Conference, East)

Huntingdon at Faulkner (Mid-South Conference, West)
Haskell Indian Nations (independent) at Westminster (Mo.)

This from Gregg Easterbrook's page 2 article on ESPN.com :

"Obscure College Score of the Week: Malone 69, Anna Maria 0. A rare case in which an NAIA school beats up on an NCAA college. Malone ran up a 69-point margin despite Anna Maria not committing a turnover)."

Yeah, that game shouldn't even have been played, Malone is a legit NAIA program and Anna Maria is just starting out in one of the weakest conferences in D3.

I have nothing nice to say about Easterbrook, which means I should say nothing at all. Was kinda hoping he'd stop with the obscure score since it's always a backhanded compliment or an outright dis.

Re: top NAIA v. Top DIII...I'd love to see Carroll and USF against UWW and Mount. Fwiw, USF handled UND last year at UND, I don't know I'd assume we'd come out on top. USF had 13 FCS & FBS transfers this offseason alone. I would love to see it played out though...

K-Mack

I'd like to see it too. And WIAC teams have beaten the Dakotas too, so I don't know what to make of that.

Since teams have a hard enough time finding games, I'm surprised these haven't materialized for UWW. For MUC I understand more because they have one open date that opens up once every two years.

In an eerily parallel universe, Carroll (MT) defeated Sioux Falls for the NAIA championship.  One of those teams has won the title every year since 2002.  There have been other teams in the final, but one of those two has won.

The primary color for each team...purple!

I am aware of eight college games that were played this weekend.  Three were blowouts and five were competitive games.  The three blowouts were bowl games and the five close games were playoff games.

What's so great about the bowl system again?

I read that prior to that game, Souix Falls had a winning streak of 50 games, or something like that. I was under the impression that UWW was the leader in that category. I guess thay are now at any rate.

BoBo

^ Yes, Carroll (MT) won 10-7 ending SF's 42 game win streak, retagent. The 42 games tied the NAIA consecutive game win streak record. UWW now has the nations longest win streak at 30 games.

I later read that USF is leaving NAIA for DII next season.

Looks like a match-up of NAIA and D3 powers are set to collide this season. Morningside #3 in the NAIA will host Whitewater on 9/24. I know it's been discussed a lot over the years if the top NAIA teams can compete with the D3's elite. This should provide a great measuring stick for fans.

I highly doubt this will be a typical blowout NAIA win for the Hawks. This could very well be their toughest game on their schedule.

With all the power that the NCAA has, I'm pleasantly surprised that the NAIA is still around.

Preseason #18 UW-Oshkosh will face an NAIA team, Robert Morris-Chicago, on September 5. In spite of being based in Chicago's Loop, the Eagles play off -campus in northwest suburban Arlington Heights. RMUC went 8-3 last season; the Eagles lost a narrow 27-19 decision to UWO in Oshkosh in the season opener for both teams.

Some schools would rather not have to deal with rules or standards, I guess!
