FB: Ohio Athletic Conference

[Onward on, John Carroll]

Wow. This game is crazy. I thought JCU had it won there...

Once they got close, i wonder if it would have been smarter for JCU just to line it up, and kick the fg instead of trying to get the TD not using all their downs

Absolutely. I thought there were only three viable options on that play  One, Kick the field goal on third town in the event you have a bad snap or unsuccessful hold,  it would give you a second opportunity at the field goal. Two, Take a knee in between the hashmarks at the 3 yard line so that the field goal kick was exactly the same as an extra point. Three, Run the ball right up the gut to see if you can get the 3 feet and, if you do not, kick the field goal. I was baffled by the pass, and when we missed the field goal, I was prepared to blame that play calling for this loss for the rest of my days on earth.

When that field goal attempt clanked off the left upright, 31 years of losing in so many different painful manners rushed over me. I thought this was just the latest on that long list – triple overtime, the comeback at Bedford, strip and score, etc.

Wow.... why not kick there and live to fight another day?

I think it made sense to go for it.  They had higher changes of winning by converting there, instead of just kicking the field goal and letting it go to 3 OT.  OT after 2 is just two point tries, which I think is just all luck. While if they had converted they would have had 4 chances to get that winning TD from the 2

Yes, I hate the thought of putting a playoff game in the hands of the college football equivalent of penalty kicks.

Time to contact a crime scene clean up company to clean up the inside of the Mount Union house. What happened today at Kehres Stadium was nothing short of criminal.  GD gets more out of his stinking piece of gum than he tries to get out of his players.  I am hoping that this will be the song that people will be singing to GD after the first of the new year.
Nah,nah, hey, hey good bye!

He has had enough time to prove to everyone that he deserves to be the head coach of Mount Union.  Starting at the top and working down, get that crime scene cleaning company to really scrub down the Mount Union house. Any  head coach that was not part of the Kehres family household, would be gone by now.  Do not prolong what needs to be done.

Mount Union turned off comments on their final score post on social media. Very on brand for this institution that continues to weaken and be a shell of its former self.

The softness in Alliance has been staggering since VK went off to Toledo

This might be the first time in history there is this much calling for the firing of a coach that is 67-5 with 0 conference losses.

It is the OAC. Beating up on Wilma, Cap, Musky, et al. means squat. D3's Big Game James. Little F Geoff.

It's not the coach's fault that our reliable field goal kicker suddenly lost all confidence. It's not the coach's fault No. 25 fumbled on the five-yard line on first down. That was the play of the game. JCU was the better team.

[edward de vere]

Mount Union, Ohio State and BYU all had one HUGE factor going against them today.  Can anybody here name it?

"This might be the first time in history there is this much calling for the firing of a coach that is 67-5 with 0 conference losses."

If winning the conference was the program's goal you'd have a point. I'm pretty sure Mt's program goal is national championship.
