FB: College Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin

[Gregory Sager]

In deference to Carthage fans, I must point out that I round off the Hansen Ratings predicted scores, so therefore Logan's algorithm actually thinks that the Firebirds will be good for 0.3 points on Saturday.

That's as good a cue as any to post what Logan's algorithm foresees for this coming Saturday:

Wheaton 47, Augustana 18	(WC 97%, AC 3%)
Washington MO 35, Carroll 15	(WUSTL 90%, CU 10%)
North Central 63, Carthage 0	(NCC 100%, CC 0%)
Illinois Wesleyan 44, Elmhurst 14	(IWU 97%, EU 3%)
North Park 32, Millikin 18	(NPU 82%, MU 18%)

Home teams are in bold.

CCI Double Ya.  Back at it again.  Ouch.

Congrats to Heff and the Bluejays on a opening day win.  While it is nice to pick up a win and feel good about the team,  other than possibly Millikin,  Rockford is not really reminiscent of what the Jays will see the rest of the season.  EC improves to 3-0 vs. RC all time.

It is something for Heff and the staff to build on, but I fear it may be a long year for EC during the conference slate.  Most of the CCIW defense's will have a stronger pass rush,  making Odom have less time to distribute the ball. 

Some of the turnovers could be opening day jitters,  but the EC defense looked porous at times.

We should do a poll to see how many of the five games people think will result in the winner doubling up (or more) the loser.
