Based off what, gives you the indication that UMHB will host?

So - no comments on the new UWW jerseys and helmets?

Always thought the previous jersey set was strong, looked sharp, and avoided all the goofy attempts at "uniqueness" that so many seem to want to achieve.  I guess that the new jerseys are OK - but I'm not a fan of the "W" on the back of the helmet.  Willie without the "W" on the sides is fine, but that "W" on the back - not thrilled.

Anyone else have a reaction?

Sink - I am glad someone finally commented on the new duds for the hawks...  The helmet is fine, I agree with most that the script W on the back is trying to hard... We are not Oregon.  They would have made a much bigger splash with a second helmet color, either a white, black, or silver would do it for me.  The Solo Warhawk with no W behind it has been discussed within the program going back to when Andy Harris was the equipment manager.  UWW is going to need to tweak the entire uniform when programs like UW-P, and wheaton are getting slick new threads. 

As far as the jersey, I thought it was classic and well done.  They didn't over think it, and they updated a much needed look.  I just wish they would do a video about the new unis, as recruits watch them and it creates a buzz about the program. 

Will UWW wear the Black Jersey's they wore in this past Stagg Bowl during the regular season at all?

It seems like the football program has a New Balance deal, Any chance a big company (Nike, Under Armour, Adidas) comes in and gives them a bid? 

Also with the consecutive wins record about to be broken any chance ESPN Gameday would ever come to the Perk?  Wishful thinking I know, but I would love it!!!

Go Hawks!!!

With 21% of last years UWW roster coming from the land of lincoln, one would think the "Fibby" type jokes would subside. 

Just remember #15 and #33 are from south of the border, and from the looks of recruiting LL is only adding IL recruits.

The only thing I was able to find was a small blurb about two guys from Beloit..

Also heard that former UWW LB Lane Olsen is playing in the Pizza League in Italy.  Good for him!!!

Any idea what happened up in Madison for the WIAC guys who participated in the Pro Day yesterday??

I am ready for this to Kick off!!!

I will be posting up at Will's Northwoods in Chicago for the game at 6.

For all of you Chi-Town Warhawks or raiders for that matter, come on by!!

I have been wearing my BEAT Mt. Union pin all week and it is has been a hit. 

Go Hawks!!

Prediction 17-7 UWW

I went to the game friday night and had a few observations. 

#1. Blanchard when given time is a complete QB.  He makes smart choices and seems to command that offense very well.
#2. The offensive line did not look great.  Now this was my first game live this year but I did not see the fire I have seen in years past.  I don't know if having Dinkel upstairs takes away from some of the desire.
#3. They are for sure missing dominating DB's.  Stout was not a great team but that score also did not represent how close that game was. 

I am afraid of UWO this weekend, The hawks have a big bullseye on their backs as we all know and this is the Titans Super Bowl.  I think this team has a long way to go if they want to 3peat.  just my 2 cents.

Anyone happen to catch the "Tim Brando Show" yesterday on CBS College Sports Network ?

Tim gives Coach Lance a shoutout and has the Warhawk helmet on display on his set, you can podcast the show via Itunes, its in Hour 1 Segment 1. 

Stay on task hawks, one game at a time, enough of this stagg bowl talk in Sept.

I could see CFL 02, but think one of the indoor leagues is more realistic. 

Does he have what it takes for the next level?

PurpleRaiders announced via Twitter a MUC Football Coaching announcement will be made tomorrow. Is Larry done???

Anyone interested in watching the game on the North side of Chicago?  Please message me. I am in talks with a few establishments, setting up a drink deal, for the game. 2:30 to 6 for $30 all you can drink. 

Go Hawks

I am one proud flatlander. 19% of the UWW roster is from the land of Lincoln.  Looks like some didn't make final cuts. Go Hawks!!!
