Ursinus has a good young kicker and punter. He was punting over 50 yards and in between the ten and the end zone! Great find.

What's the inside scoop on Dickinson this year?  Are they headed towards a similiar 9-2 type season like last year?  Or maybe a drop off?

Reading the Grove City recap made it seem like the weather really impacted the Grove City game (mostly all rushing etc).

Should be an interesting match up between between Dickinson & Hobart. Weather didn't factor into Grove City's offense, Dickinson's defense was that good in stopping them. QB Ian Mitchell is explosive and hard to defend. On paper, the Red Devil's look to be on track for another 9-2 season.

Thx.  Hobart is returning a lot of guys as well - especially on defense.  If you're interested you can read up Hobart's team here:

Ursinus has a good young kicker and punter. He was punting over 50 yards and in between the ten and the end zone! Great find.

Ursinus' kicking game was excellent. A majority of kick-offs went into the end zone, aided somewhat by a breeze from the south.

Kicked two field goals of close to 40 yards and hit on all four PATs. Punting was good as well, until he shanked one that ruined his average on the day.

Ursinus has a quick defensive line that shut down Alfred's running plans....albeit without the Saxons' 1406 yard tailback from last year, out with an injury. Nevertheless, the AU offensive line is very young and has not found its groove--but that will come.

Best of luck to the Bears the rest of the way....   and, On Saxon Warriors!

9/13 picks

Hobart-- at home with seniors who played a lot of tough games(will still root for Dickinson)
F & M -- not what they were last year and my suprise for the conference
Hampden-Sydney-- Stronger the Gettysburg thinks
John Hopkins-- kicking game will win games for them this year
Susquehanna-- home game as old MAC teams bang helmets
Moravian-- First conference game of the year win.
Ursinus-- keep getting the turnnovers and keep the yellow flag away.

have fun

OLD,
since i took the same picks as you, how did i  get 1 less win and 1 more loss...I don't understand.

Please advise.

[old ends]

Mule: I took your statement below, and thought you were taking Dickinson. If you do not list your picks I must make a judgement call. I will change the results this time, but in the future you must list who you are picking.
