FB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[CardinalAlum]

Rain falling hard in Rock Island.  Not good for the Cardinals. 6 minutes to go in the half, still 10-7 Augie.

[CardinalAlum]

TD Augie, 1 minute to go in the half.  Blocked punt kills Cardinals.  Huge run by Roe on 3rd and 20.  17-7, lots of work to do!

There must be a delay on the Augie commentating?

[cardinals]

So i've sat and read this board for a couple years now but this game is killing me..listening to the game on line from across the country.  the weather is gonna become a huge factor in this game..we need a score to end this half!  Lets go cards!!!!!!

[CardinalAlum]

1st down NCC at the Augie 1, 9 seconds left in the half.

[CardinalAlum]

Kniss fumbles snap out of the shotgun, falls on the ball at the 4.  5 seconds left, FG good for the Cards.  17-10 Augie at the half.  What a waste.  Why are we in shotgun with the ball inside the 1??
