Sounds good to me.  8-)

You all don't understand sarcasm very well and the amount of ribbing that goes on between the IIAC teams and their fans.  That was not a shot at the rankings it was a shot at Coe.

Instead of you being on the IIAC board telling us how we need to look at things you can ignore us and we will both be happy.

I guess what we could do is look at it more of a shot at the level of the competition in the IIAC as that would be more fun.  Look a 17 point win against Coe and we dropped 2 spots in the poll.   ;D

Thanks Pat, I guess I need to remember who they played better. :P

Wartburg ought to be happy it's not worse. It's time for 2014 results to not be considered in the 2015 ranking. Here's a relevant pair of 2015 results:

at Wartburg 35, Augsburg 27
St. Thomas 55, at Augsburg 6

Might be a case to be made that St. Thomas should be ahead of Wartburg. It's not a 2014 ranking.

I don't think you understand the lengths we go to to exactly eliminate bias among our voter panel, so to just throw that out there is pretty unfounded. We balance the panel among all four regions. The MIAC has a voter. The IIAC has a voter. So do about 20 other conferences.

I'm ignoring your gripe against Oshkosh. Pretty sure they had the best week in Division III football.

It is just very uncommon to move a team ahead of another when they have played in the same season.  Doesn't that make Wartburg's win over Oshkosh more impressive since their big win?  Just asking?

Wartburg always starts their homecoming game at 1:30.

Architect's website previews Coe's expansion

Looking at the map does that mean the TKE house could be a thing of the past?

The TKE house is slated for rehabilitation per the map. Which is fitting since so may TKE's ended up in rehab.

Okay I laughed out loud at this comment.  I have some friends that were TKE's and I believe what you say.

Nothing intended ....just looking at history of IIAC........has Wartburg ever played in a Bowl game?

Don,t be too touchy if not.  They have done well lately if not historically.  Just looking for history.
Not touchy at all, if you were looking at history I believe you could or did find the answer yourself.  I didn't know the last time central was in a "bowl game" off the top of my head.

OK.  Willis has a great deserved record.  My question still is, has Wartburg ever been in a Bowl game......at any level?

Quick Marty to the time machine, we must rescue Phred from 1984!!!   :-*

Congrats to Wartburg on a great season, you guys played tough and in my opinion was the best team and think that if both teams were healthy and played 10 times, you would win 7 out of 10 on a neutral field. It was such a shame to see your quarterback get injured on the low hit, he is amazing. Your guys did not waiver until very late (kudos to UW-W for taking advantage). I was just wondering why the wide receiver became quarterback and not quarterback that could throw more effectively. I think putting the initial quarterback back in the game did not help at all. Nevertheless, great game, good luck going forward, hopefully you guys reload and continue defying odds.

Jacobsmeier and Schrader used to work a 2 QB system at Wartburg I believe just last year.

Let's be real NKD... there will be booze long before we win or lose.

I have a good feeling about this week though. Whitewater is obviously extremely talented, but I don't think they are at their usual "untouchable" status this year like they have been in years past. Just from following them on the internet, and talking to a few friends of mine that are closer to the game, they are somewhere between the 2008 UWW team and the 2012 UWW team in terms of talent. If that's the case, should be a tight one.

In other words, I don't really know anything (other than the booze, that's a certainty), and I am hoping for a Wartburg W!! Go Knights!

I am familiar with the Wartburg football connection with booze.  ;D  After hearing my son proclaim this many times I thought it was an appropriate signature.  The good thing is that usually at Wartburg we are boozing after a victory!!
