Quote from: Boys of Fall on October 13, 2026, 02:33:53 PMThere hasn't been much mention of the Johnnie defense this season.  Going into the season I think this was an area of question.  Only two years removed from Jerry retiring and first year without Novak opened the team up for some big changes.  So far I think the defense under Herberg has answered the questions.  It's early, but the energy he's bringing to that side of the ball is encouraging.

They were exploited in the first half against UW La Crosse. Since then they've been lights out.

So Macalester to have the Jimi Hendrix national anthem pregame. 

Attendance today will be less than expected. Raining. Start delayed until 2;30. I threw in the towel. On my way back to St. Paul.

Quote from: Robert Zimmerman on September 24, 2026, 08:36:15 PMThis is the first fall that all my kids are gone, empty nester! I bought the wife an electric blanket for Christmas last year in preparation. Like Gustavus football has been saying for the last 30 seasons, this is our year! (to win the MIAC furnace competition)

Duff needs a real challenger - best of luck!

I'm shooting for a top half of the conference finish, but know realistically that a title isn't in the cards.

Still no Rundell on the depth chart for this weekend. 

I hope Rundell will need one more week to recover. 

At the football kickoff last week, Dan O'Brien (now permanent athletic director) told us that the clear bag policy was suggested by the Stearns County Sheriff's Office.

Sad sign of the times.

Quote from: olddog on August 06, 2026, 12:56:58 PMIt means no accountability, the Liberal Way...Poor Admin, Poor HC Hires and Process to hire , Covid Shut down (no kings ya right), just another long line of bad formula brought on by the libs....

No reason that place field a good team, tons of talent in the area. Old Dog played on that field back when stadium was twice as big against an ex NFL qb,....If you remember Steve Young and the LA Express played their last few games their in 85' before the league died.

Sad that being accountable is not needed to have a good job working for the Gov in CA.

 

Like the orange one is being held accountable?

(Sorry Pat, couldn't help myself.  Won't be offended if you delete.)

Why is the attendance so much higher at Carleton?

Think about the money you'll save driving 20 miles round trip instead of 80 to Northfield.

Is this basically a payday for Olaf, courtesy of Johnnie fans? Taking a page from the UST playbook? The ratio of SJU fans to Olaf fans will be bigger than if the game were actually played at Olaf.

I like the night game idea — I just wish it were in August or September instead of November.

No tailgating!

This you?

The whole thing is wrong.  Would like to know what the UMHB donor paid.

He's certainly built great success at Shakopee.  I hope he can return SJU wrestling to relevance!

Agreed.  I hope he will be provided the resources required to be successful.  Don't think that's been the case in some time.

As sort of a counterpoint to BDB, Johnnie Football Spring Standup

It is a fundraiser, but $250 is kind of steep.

Row the Boat!

Looks like the Johnnies lost out on the Jett Feeney sweepstakes.  https://www.twincities.com/2026/03/09/gophers-add-moorhead-quarterback-jett-feeney-to-2027-recruiting-class/

Maybe he'll ride the bench for a couple of years and then follow his brother to Collegeville.

My eldest daughter works at Johns Hopkins.  Never met Johnny.

Quote from: bleedpurple on February 24, 2026, 07:31:35 PMNext year will be much easier for the WIAC schools to fill their non-conference schedule as they will only need to schedule two games. Conference play will begin week three, there will be a conference bye week 6 and then week 10 will be pit 1 vs 8, 2 vs 7, 3 vs 6, and 4 vs 5. The regular season champion will be declared after week 9.

So, teams will play each other twice?  Never a fan of that.
