Quote from: Crawford on November 15, 2025, 03:01:54 PMThis board used to be one of the most active, looks like even the Wabash fan base has given up.

I think a lot of the Wabash faithful on the board have either passed (RIP) or when COVID hit kind of fell off. I know myself and a few other posters who used to be active stay in touch and life just got busy.

With that being said, yeah - the game went pretty much as expected today. Offensively, Wabash was just not very good this year.

Quote from: WAF-WDE on November 08, 2025, 08:04:30 PMDid Wabash and Oberlin play 12-minute quarters?

Yes.

Just watched the Wabash game. They had backups in the game in the first quarter. Brand Campbell played just 3 series and threw 6 passes. This was effectively a JV game for Wabash. No need to win 70-0.

Quote from: CollegeGolf18 on November 01, 2025, 01:39:47 PMWabash is starting to get frustrating to watch offensively. This is what you get when you hire a defensive mind - offensive side of the ball starts to get ugly, generally.

I'll take a W, but there might need to be some soul searching offensively. Injuries have plagued too.

Wish Kenyon would have started their stream on time yesterday. Missed the first Wabash TD.

Quote from: Crawford on October 18, 2025, 04:39:28 PMD3 scores shows the game "suspended".  Does that mean delayed, cancelled, ended?

JCU football said "holding pattern" on Twitter. DePauw does not have lights, I corrected my original post. I thought that they did for some reason.

Quote from: Crawford on October 18, 2025, 04:12:58 PMOh my, looking at the weather radar, not sure if the JCU / Depauw game will be finished.  Does Depauw have lights?  Does the local high school?  I know how controversial that is for some 😉.  Would be a shame if this game was declared a tie.

DePauw does not have lights.

This Wabash/OWU game is tough to watch right now.

Pass defense is horrendous - I think they are missing assignments on nearly every pass play. OWU is running wide open nearly every play. I haven't seen this since the Jeff Ramsey defense days.

Quote from: maripp2002 on September 29, 2025, 03:29:16 PMWhile not the D3football poll, Wabash is ranked at 25 in the AFCA poll. Which makes Wabash vs. JCU a ranked match-up. I'm really excited to see how both teams play. I got to watch JCU earlier in the season at JHU, where they looked a bit out gunned, more in depth than in talent - JHU is for real, but that means so is JCU.

They have an excellent wide receiver who is a FCS graduate transfer, and an excellent graduate student tight end who was an FCS transfer as well. I'm not sure if those are leftovers from the COVID years, or just a boon to having one of the few graduate schools in the conference, but both guys caught my eye in the JHU game - both can play.

Win, lose or draw, I'm excited to see the top of the conference get a few more tough games. That should help anyone who makes it come playoff/bowl game time.

Welcome JCU to a new NCAC rivalry!

Good synopsis and this is a huge game in the league.  JCU might be ok if they end with two losses, but they definitely don't want that loss to happen before they play DePauw.  Wabash looks great for the postseason if they can (at least) split the JCU/DPU games.  I think more importantly for Wabash this week is the chance to measure themselves halfway through Gilbert's first season against a bona fide playoff caliber team.  We'll get an idea of where the LGs are now and where they need to get to before Week 11. 

Semptimphelter and Montgomery are about as good as it gets at QB/WR in the Division, so this is a big challenge for a defense that has been playing really well.  I think if Wabash can stop putting the ball on the ground (really about the only sticking point for them through the first month), we've got a 4 quarter game here. 

I'm positively giddy about this, btw.  It's been a decade (or so) since we could look around the NCAC and say "there's a couple of teams here that could win some rounds in the tournament".  We've got that again and it's very, very cool. 

Sorry, call me biased, but I really do not want to see a 4 Quarter game. I want us to score early, and often, enroute to a comfortable win.

Call me biased but I'd like to see the same. A 42-7 Wabash win!

Quote from: Crawford on September 21, 2025, 09:26:56 PMHey Pat, Wabash moved up to #33 in my fictitious poll! 😉

Wabash up to #28

36-0 win and Denision only really had one drive that made Wabash work and it was after a fumble in Denison territory.

Only gave up 100 yards in the 2nd half and Wabash was playing 2-4 string for most of the half and Dension ran their #1 offense out until the last drive.

Wabash up 33-0 and Denison isn't getting anything offensively. Only 2 yards rushing...midway through the 3rd quarter the backups are in on both sides.

Quote from: CollegeGolf18 on September 27, 2025, 03:17:26 PMWabash up 23-0 at the half with 3 fumbles...a muffed punt and two inside the 40ish yard line.

Defense has played well. Only given up 131 yards and made a stand in the red zone after a 1st and goal at the 2.

Wabash has nearly 300 yards even with 3 turnovers.

I should also add that Wabash was playing 2nd and 3rd teamers in the 2nd quarter.
