Quote from: USee on October 19, 2025, 08:06:43 PMThere isn't another candidate for DPOY in the CCCIW.

TECHNICALLY, everyone who plays defense in the CCIW is a candidate for DPOY. Now, they won't win because of the dominance of Sullivan, but they are candidates.    ;D

As a former newspaper copy editor, I am here for this type of technicality!

First NCC shutout of Wheaton since 1964.

Quote from: Gregory Sager on September 15, 2025, 12:49:33 PMWe should do a poll to see how many of the five games people think will result in the winner doubling up (or more) the loser.

I'm down for that! But I don't want any pedantic "2 X 0 = 0" bull****e!

On a related note, Carthage's score this weekend will be undefined.  Sorry, I'm a math teacher.

As the husband of a math teacher... I felt that.

I texted my dad Q's tweet, and his first response was "Wahpeton?" (His hometown, about an hour south of Fargo).

Incidentally, there is a college there, but unless the North Dakota State College of Science has suddenly decided they have the resources to expand from two year programs to four year programs and also have the budget to make the leap from the NJCAA to D3, it's probably just a pipe dream.

(Also they'd be trading having to deal with one DuPage County bird national championship football team with another.)

Quote from: lmitzel on July 23, 2025, 04:56:11 PMI haven't looked at other schedules around the league yet, but I've noticed an oddity this year with the double round robin. Usually you face everyone once before you start the rematches. Yet for NCC, they face North Park in back to back CCIW contests (in Chicago on 12/13 and Naperville on 1/3). They don't face Elmhurst until 1/24 and then again on 2/14.

The double booking in the first round-robin between NPU and NCC was done by the league office, and I think that it's by request of NCC. Something to do with their finals schedule, I think; the NPU coaching staff isn't 100% sure of the exact reason. All they know is that this unusual arrangement didn't come out of Foster & Kedzie.

That tracks. I'm not as up to date on the academic calendar since NCC went back to semesters a few years back, but that week leading up to the game at Foster and Kedzie is Finals Week. And yet the tradeoff was moving the first Elmhurst matchup, which if travel was the issue that doesn't make a whole lot of sense. I may have to see what I can dig up.

Please line up in the wildcat formation for the first offensive series.

Cardinal773

Or just to screw with everyone: line up with both Ashiru and Wilson on the first play.

Quote from: Pat Coleman on September 04, 2025, 01:03:05 PMTo clarify, someone is reporting that a NCC source says Wilson is starting.

Fair correction, thanks!

Don't know if this is official or not, but we'll see in a week and a half.

Here is a story from the Naperville Sun on the QB battle...as of yesterday a starter had not been named yet.

The article mentions Lavery in the mix but it will really be between Wilson and Ashiru, and I would not be shocked to see them both play against Oshkosh next week

I saw yesterday that an NCC source has Wilson starting.

We'll see next week.

Quote from: lmitzel on August 26, 2025, 10:50:19 AMHold up, you can start a network to host all of your conference's live streams and not force it behind a paywall?

10/10 no notes, CCIW.

I wonder what the status is going to be with archived games.  Typically, NCC coaches don't like having their entire season up for streaming until it's over with, as they don't like providing their entire body of work for their opponent's scouting eyes so easily. 

Can't speak to football, but I know on the basketball side the past few years the live streams have been up in the archive pretty much immediately after the games are done. I don't know if this will be a sport-by-sport, school-by-school, or more of a Wild West-type thing with the new network.
