FB: American Rivers Conference

[GusD]

As are many D3 schools, I would imagine Wartburg is very much a tuition-dependent institution. I was just pursuing the NCC/Wartburg Game Notes and noticed that Wartburg has 175 players listed on its roster! Accordingly, their 🏈 team certainly seems to be doing it's part in bringing in a sizable chunk of tuition revenue.

8 ARC games today with 4 day games and 4 night games. What a good day to sit down and watch some football!

Here's to hoping the conference is able to flex a bit today especially in the early slate. I'm not overly optimistic but lots of opportunities for some high profile wins for the conference.

59-0 Platteville over Dubuque.  Yikes.  Hopefully they just flush that, forget it, and move on to next week.

Any idea why Rhomberg did not play? 47 rushing attempts and 13 passing attempts is not what we have seen from UD in the last few years.

Duhawks lost a tough one in Lisle...

Duhawks looked to have caused a fourth-down stop on their own 5 yard line with 30 seconds left and the lead, but evidently the BenU WR asked the ref very nicely for a PI, and he was rewarded for his politeness with a flag. BenU scored two plays later with a throw to the back corner, in which the back judge, who was standing 5 feet from the play, decided he did not have a good enough view and had to ask the ref on the pylon if he thought it was good. They both shrugged and awarded the home team a TD.

Duhawks left way too many points on the field and left the game in the hands of the officials, which is a dangerous thing to do. Duhawk WR's had way too many drops, the run game struggled, and the defense could not get the final stop they needed. Tough to win football games that way...

And as if the victory on the field wasn't enough, some of the BenU faithful decided they would try to win off the field too as the Loras staff and team were trying to get to the locker room and load the bus...

What a weekend in Chicagoland!

Concussion is what I had heard.  Lingering effect from last weeks late hit.
