Quote from: emma17 on October 31, 2026, 11:36:34 PMUWW takes it to UWO in the second half. The first half was dominated by the one-man wrecking crew Ashiru. I think it took a toll on him as his second half didn't seem as effective.
Klinkner making some nice throws tonight. Would have had two more passing TD's to his credit but UWW had some butterfingers on Halloween night.
He didn't look even remotely close to the same after the roughing the passer penalty that knocked him out of the game..

I'm glad somebody brought this up. If  Uselding is successful early in next week's game, he'll have to watch out. 

Right. The penalty call was horrible. The running back cut blocked our rusher and he rolled into the QB. When you hit the QB as the result of being blocked into him, that is not even a penalty. Not sure what you are insinuating, but you are way off base.
I wasn't insinuating anything... I was just saying his play wasn't remotely close to the level he was playing at before that play. You disagree?

Anyway, it happens in high school, college, and the NFL all the time. A QB gets hit and now they speed things up and instead of playing relaxed. Timing gets thrown off and the offense bogs down.
Cubs, I wasn't responding to your post. I was responding to AndrewB's saying that "if Uselding is successful early in next week's game, he'll have to watch out.". Seems like he was implying it was a dirty play by UW-W and it wasn't.
My bad! Misunderstanding on my part! Carry on...

Quote from: fredfalcon on November 01, 2026, 11:59:33 AMAgreed, Andrew B. Far too early to get on the anti-Jennings bandwagon.
Especially if you are pulling for a team in the WIAC that isn't UWO! 😁

The longer Jennings sticks around at UWO the better it is for everyone else in the WIAC!

Put it this way, there's a reason some of the most ardent Warhawk backers weren't disappointed when he left Whitewater to take the UWO job... That should tell you something!?!?

Quote from: The Third Division on November 01, 2026, 01:29:06 AMIs it safe to say Oshkosh should move on from Jennings and admit this is not the man to take them back to ANY playoff run? the closest they game to doing so was in 2024 off a missed field goal.

He's recruited the entire squad beginning last year and this year is currently tied for last in the WIAC.

Something needs to change.
Unless Cerroni (or someone of his ilk) comes back, UWO football will continue to be the "also-ran" it has been pre-Cerroni and post-Cerroni... There might be the occasional competitive year, but more often than not it will entail a mid-tier to bottom half WIAC finish.

Great hire Darryl! 🗑

Quote from: PauldingLightUP on August 06, 2026, 01:14:54 PMSo, in told UW-Stevens Point and UW-La Crosse will play two doubleheaders in 2027, January 23 at Mitchell Hall in La Crosse and February 13 in Stevens Point where fans, broadcasters, and event workers can make the classic walk down the hall from the Berg to the Qunadt.

Back when double headers were the norm, a ticket was $7, but you could get both games for $10. They are $10 now (at least the men's games are), so maybe 2 for $15?

Why not have both game in Quandt and expose the fans to the ladies team, too?   Bad marketing to have them in separate gyms when they don't have to be.
Because if I'm the coach and we practice all season at Berg, that's where I want my team to play its games too.

UWO was the same way back in the day. Their women's team practiced in Albee so that's where they played their games as well.

Quote from: PauldingLightUP on June 06, 2026, 12:38:28 AMWhenever Fischer decided to leave I thought it would be for a head coaching position at like the Missouri Valley or something. I didn't have an assistant at Nebraska on the board.

From Marshfield to Lincoln.
I think this move just goes to show that MANY AD's at the D1 level ate hesitant to hire someone as their Head Coach who lacks D1 experience on their resume. I wouldn't be shocked to see Fischer use the assistant job as a way of gaining that D1 experience and then taking over at a D1 mid-major a short time later.

Former UWSP Pitcher Mason Weckler and the rest of his UW Milwaukee teammates knock off #1 seed Wright State on back-to-back days to earn the Horizon League's automatic bid to the NCAA Division One Baseball Championship.

The UWM roster is littered with Wisconsin kids, so it's nice to see them have some success and get to play on tbe "big stage!" Go Panthers!

Thx
Correct... Not only is this the first time since 2021 that the WIAC failed to advance a team to Super Regionals, they had advanced TWO teams to Super Regionals each of those seasons as well!

Bit of controversy in Whitewater today during the Regional Championship game...

Too much stick'um on the bat or what was he arguing about? 
Sticky substance was found on the barrel of the bat apparently in 9th inning of tie game?  Batter was declared out, but allowed to remain in game.  Coach was ejected after using some magic words while he voiced his displeasure in the ruling.

Whitewater gets off the deck and puts up 6 runs in the 8th inning to take a 7-6 lead, however Bethany Lutheran ties it in the bottom half 7-7.

Zero's all the way through to the 11th as BLU gets a SAC FLY to knock out the defending National Champions 8-7.

Whitewater batters went 0x11 witb two walks over the last 3.2 innings and never really put any pressure on BLU.
