Keep drinking that kool-aid Pat.

I love Culver's. Been there only a couple times though.

Fun fact. Graduated at UWO. Believe his first job was managing a McDonald's. Think it was in that Sun Prairie area. Or his first Culver's was in that Sun Prairie area. Something like that. Probably why that game is held there. Donates $ to UWO. Built a hall and named it after him. Guessing that's why he sponsors that crap game.

But man, those Butterburgers are great. Guess that's what happens when you soak your burgers in butter. The PERFECT ingredient for people in WI.

Fat.

Or final 8. Or final 16.

You could invite top 4 teams from some of the other conferences and they'd have the same lack of success the WIAC just had. Feels like other conferences are having more success these playoffs.
Depends on what you consider definition of "best conference. "
No doubt WIAC is most competitive league top to bottom. But that doesn't mean best conference. Not to me.
Based on playoff success, or lack of success over the last 5 years, I could maybe say the conference is full of average teams. Maybe the NCC/Wheaton conference is a better conference. Maybe those teams that NCC & Wheaton beat up during the season would have some success in the WIAC. Maybe?
That's why you CAN base best conference on playoff success. Or the lack of.
Again. It's what someone considers the definition of. But I don't. And that's just me.
If you keep telling people something over and over again, they will eventually believe you. Reminds me of Donny Cheeseburger continuously telling me the 2020 election was rigged. If you say it enough, weakminded people will eventually drink the kool-aid.
Black isn't White.

DePauw 26 @ UWW 23
Wheaton 49 @ DePauw 24

Wow. Yikes. Safe to say our beloved UW Warhawks should have never been invited into the playoffs. Didnt Depauw take 2nd in their conference? Wonder what they'd do in a WIAC conference.  But then again they just got smoked today by Wheaton at home who i believe took 2nd in their conference. NCC smokes Wheaton. Wheaton smokes DePauw. DePauw beats UWW. Cant imagine how much we'd lose by if we played NCC. Safe to say we are MILES behind the elite right now. Maybe the public perception that has been drilled in my head year after year that the WIAC is the best conference might not be true. Based on playoff lack of success over the last 5 years for the WIAC, I'm beginning to have my doubts. Maybe don't invite so many? Or maybe invite everybody? Maybe then 2 would reach round of 8.
Any who, what an embarrassing season for our Warhawks. I just can't take this poor showing anymore. We need a championship AT LEAST every other year.
4 WIAC teams in playoffs. 1 done in REAL first round. Another 2 done in REAL 2nd round. This feels like it's happening year after year for the best conference. Always a poor showing in the playoffs for teams invited in from this conference. Here's hoping UWRF makes this deep run they're capable of making to make this conference respectable.
Hopefully Blaha doesn't retire and collect social security by the time the playoffs are over. He's fun to watch.

Whoopsi. Now how can that happen? Losing to a team that took second place in an inferior conference? The best defense in the country allowing almost 200 yds on the ground? And at home?
I'll tell you.
The refs screwed us again. They could have called a holding penalty on every play. How else do you explain all the rushing yds against our team. Don't the refs know who we are? And especially at home? Every time Klunker passed, there was either holding or pass interference from the DBs.
If it wasn't snowing, there's no doubt it would have been a different story. Felt like it only snowed when our Warhawks had the ball.
Here's hoping Nick Saban takes the best job in the country. Or wait another year when Lance will need a job. Or just hire all of us. We seem to have all the answers.
On a positive, I'm sure we'll still be ranked in the top 25 in the final and preseason rankings. Even though I don't know why. But that public perception will give us a leg up to maybe sneak into the playoffs next year. Just need a chip and a chair. Then we roll in the playoffs to another championship.

What an easy path to the finals our UWW team has. Should be a cakewalk. Probably will be able to let the starters rest second half of all the games until MAYBE the semifinals? Then we can let our baby Warhawks get some playoff experience.
We should take this off week to maybe change up the offense. Maybe install the wishbone. Just pound that _ock down everyone's throat these playoffs. Now THAT sounds like a recipe for success. You know, get back to that 80's offense that worked so well on all collegiate levels. Screw adapting to the times!!!
I mean A Klunker can't complete a pass past 4 yds, so why not.
Even when we get down 20....wishbone.
SEE Y'ALL AT THE STAGG BOWL.

Lit up. LIT. UP.
Wow. What a disgrace for the best program in D3. We officially hit an all time low.
Was that our "baby Warhawks" out there playing?
Reasons why we lost:
1. The refs screwed us again. Just nonstop bad calls against us.
2. We don't have tall wide receivers. How is the best QB in D3 suppose to throw the ball down field.
3. It's unfair that we had to play against a QB that's 29 yrs old and probably gets drafted.
4. We need to pound the _ock more. Even down 30, we need to pound _ock. That's how we dominate. Have the best defense in the country and pound the _ock all game long. That's the recipe for success. Get back to playing like it's 2005.
Even though the WIAC has had almost 0 success the last few years letting the best 2 teams in the playoffs, the committee HAS to let in 4? maybe 5? teams in from the best conference. Odds are 1 should make the quarterfinals.
There's no question we make a deep run in the playoffs with a great QB, best defense in the country, and probably the best coaching staff in the country.
So please just let us in. We're probably the only ones that will give Mount Union a good game in the finals.
Silver lining to yesterday is the fact we lost to probably the best team in the country. That should only help with our Jeff Sagarin ratings when it comes to the committee deciding whether or not to let a 4th WIAC team in.

What an unbelievable performance by our Warhawks last night. To hold probably the 2nd or 3rd best team in the WIAC to just 2 points is a great sign for the best coaching staff in the nation.
Thought the refs were the worst though. So many calls going against us. Was thinking maybe Vegas made a call to the refs to keep it close.
But what a performance by our QB. He looked smooth out there. Real smooth. Completely on point. There's no doubt he's gotta be the leading candidate for the Gagliardi trophy.
Gonna run the table the rest of the season.

I'll bet on whitewater to cover every week. This team is the best. I love them. They will run the table. NCC and Mount don't stand a chance. Rest of the WIAC is so weak. This might be the greatest d3 team ever assembled.
Lets pound some _ock together!!!

Been following it for 24 yrs. You guys gave 3? 4? guys from 20 years. I'm sure there's a few more, but to say there's ALLLLL these from the past would make all this money is delusional.
But yeah, I smell what you're stepping in.

Lol. Every thing you 2 dopes just said is so far fetched.
Gotta be sarcastic, right?
Even before NIL, if a D1 school thought a D3 kid was talented enough to play at that level they would come to them with a scholarship. And a D3 kid can leave at any time and try to walk on somewhere else.
The kids of the past in D3 would be making 6 figures today?!? Good lord.
I'm willing to bet Blaha didn't come back for his 12th season because some donor tossed him some money.

You 2 are obviously drinking too much purple kool-aid.

Oh. It's "pounding the rock?"
Geez. I always thought it was "pounding the c ock." As in gamecock. And I thought the gamecock was the male version of a warhawk.
You'd think spending 4 yrs there I would know that.
Silly me.
Yesterday was OK. Building block to a great championship run. There is without a doubt this will go down as the greatest team in D3 history.

Yeah. What are they doing passing 27 times? And if you can't complete a pass down the field, just keep pounding the _ock.
They need to go back to the good'ol days of playing good defense and pounding the _ock. That's when we had the most success. Remember Lance's offenses? I don't. I was in grade school when he coached. But I heard he, the players,and fans loved it when they would just keep pounding the _ock up and down the field.
IDK. Maybe it's a recipe for disaster for today's game. I mean it's not 2005 anymore. Maybe we should just try to adjust to the times. Find a QB transfer from D1 that wants to come to Whitewater. Find a D1 O-coordinator that wants to run a pass heavy offense.  Is Don Beebe available?
I guess in the meantime, our best shot at winning the national championship is to just keep pounding the _ock.

Yeah that's all great. UWO played well. Mixed up the offense like I've never seen before. Even confused me. Sooooo many people coming in and out of the huddle. Still not sure what position AJ Korth plays. I believe he threw a pass, ran quit a bit, and caught a pass. It was fun watching him play at Menasha. Will be fun watching him play the next 3 yrs. Offensively they should be just fine. Nice senior QB. 2 very different, but solid RBs. 2 very good WRs that have been basically playing a lot since they were sophomores. And i would think the best TE in conference?
Defense played....solid. Feels like a lot of new faces. Feels like MLB Kyle Dietzen has been playing forever. So solid. So good.
Should be a great year in this conference. Probably wide open. Conference play should be fun to watch.
But I think we can take the preseason rankings with a grain of salt. I mean, isn't it just a "copy and paste" from the final rankings from last year? There's only 25 voters, right? Not quit sure who those 25 voters are made up of, but I'm guessing (lol) they really don't pay attention who's coming in and who's going out on all these D3 teams. So if I was to guess, it's a lot of final ranking teams getting votes. Then if your rankings aren't filled, you make sure  all the "purple teams" are in, the best team in the west "Linfield" is in, and AT LEAST 4 from the WIAC are in because of public perception of this being the best conference.
It's cute, but funny....these preseason rankings. But I understand. It's for us to say an unranked UWO team just beat a preseason ranked Linfield.
Look at just today. First week. #10 gets smoked at home. #13 loses to unranked opponent.

No. My post wasn't meant for you Papa. Didn't see your post when i was doing mine. It was meant as a whole. Past posts. Past beliefs. Past articles. From years and years of narratives that I'm suppose to believe.
