Quote from: Ron Boerger on November 28, 2025, 10:24:17 AMSpotted a pic of Anson Mount (aka Captain Pike in Star Trek: Strange New Worlds) wearing a pretty ratty Sewanee Tigers ball cap.  Is he an alumnus?

In other news, every member of the D3football.com panel picked HSU to win tomorrow's game, all by a TD or more.

Per Wikipedia yes he is.

Anson's C'93, remember him as an undergraduate as I was living in Sewanee while he was in school.  Nice sort, if necessarily a bit aloof due to the fame. Commutes between the family farm in Nashville, New York, and Los Angeles.  His family is old-line Sewanee, and his father was mildly famous as one of early editors of Playboy magazine who, if my memory serves me right, was the originator of the Playboy Party School List.

One of the those odd 1890's things... people started calling them that when they adopted that color for their uniforms.

Quote from: jknezek on November 11, 2025, 02:31:09 PMThis is a pattern. Three or four years, fire the coach. It's been going on for a while. Something else is the issue at this point. It can't just be the wrong coach over and over.

Three years into Coach McCollum's tenure and no signs of improvement rubbed some people the wrong way.  A lot of us were expecting to see movement towards a 0.500 season this year.   Surprises me that our VC and AD were that quick at pulling the trigger, was not expecting the call to happen until after our last game this weekend.  I think we have talent on the field but it's difficult to overcome 50+ years of a lack of success on the field.

The Edmund Orgill Trophy.  Rhodes leads the series since the trophy was first rewarded in 1954 but Sewanee leads the overall series going back to the late 1890s.

Watching Horn play in trash time.  He's a big kid.

The end zone stop was solid on the TU defense's part.

Starting to push us around a bit here in the 4th.

TU 13 - SEW 0 at the half.

I haven't seen a lot of consistent play from either offense. And that was one of the most egregious bad calls I've seen in a while with that PI call that led to that second score. The double pass that led to the first score was a good call.

Wishes for quick healing for Franklin but must admit I'm interested in seeing Horn on the field given everything I've heard about him.

For some reason we keep scheduling either TU or Berry for our Homecoming game. Given the way the season has gone for us and how TU has played the last few games,  I expect we'll play even with y'all for part of the first half and then you'll open it up.

Then Millsaps followed by @Maryville for y'all. That's a tough out. 

Berry gets @Centre, Maryville, and @ Southwestern.   Maryville gets Rhodes, @Berry, and TU.   

Interesting close of the season coming up.

Final in Jackson with Millsaps getting the upset of MC, 31-21.

Still one game on the schedule tonight with Southwestern at Centre.

Bunch of self inflicted wounds on that last drive with those holding penalties, and then miss the field goal.  Let's see if the Majors can run out the clock.

Quote from: tigerguy on October 18, 2025, 03:39:03 PMEdit: 734 yards of offense! WOW. Will need to check where that output ranks for them all time in a single game.

That went about like I expected.

Maryville has cut the score down to a two-score deficit against Millsaps with a score at the 8:30 mark in the 4Q for 31-21 score. The Majors are trying to run clock trying to get a drive going and then turn the ball over with 6:46 remaining.  This will be interesting.

Berry opened it up on my Tigers in the 2nd half, 44-71 at the 2:00 minute warning

Quote from: Ron Boerger on October 18, 2025, 09:39:09 AMAs always, Hansen seems to underrate Maryville and I'll take them by another TD.  Berry seems likely to win by more as well. 

Games in progress:
Stats feed says Millsaps up 24-7 on Maryville at the half.
Berry up 16-0 on Sewanee at the half.
No update on Trinity/Rhodes.

Final from Valhalla: Berry 29, Trinity 6.

Results from day games so far:

Maryville wakes up in the second half for a 33-13 win over Centre

Southwestern holds off Sewanee for 39-31 victory. Hurts a bit to see our kids put the effort out and not be able to get the win.

As of the last update of the stats page, Milsaps was up 31-19 on Rhodes in the 3Q.   Rhodes stat tracker really doesn't do well in keeping up with game.
