The talent might be down a little bit, but im not sure you can measure talent in the IBC considering no team has won a playoff game yet.  Their are still some pretty good players in the league.  Just not enough of these players are on the same team.  If Aurora had facilities like Benedictine, Aurora would win the conference hands down every year.  Once Aurora decides they need a real football stadium and a field house they will be a great D3 team every year.  The coaching staff is solid and they just need some facilities to turn this place around.

How many teams were in it then because on the cciw site is says that in 1976 there was 4 teams in it.

If I am correct the cciw did not win a playoff game until 1982.  If I am correct the playoffs started in 1973.  So that leaves 9 years in there when the cciw lost 9 straight games in the playoffs or they were not in it at all.  The source I found just said they lost in 76 and 81 so that must mean they didnt even get a bid into the playoffs.  If you look the IBFC is 0-8 so I dont really think the conference is that far behind the cciw.  Since the teams that are currently in it did not form until the middle 90's.  If I am wrong let me know but I believe my information is correct.  So all the cciw fans on here can tell me if i am wrong, and we are a horrible conference still when you guys lost 9 straight years when are conference wasnt even formed with the teams we currently have.  Your conference has had the same teams except for 2 since the early 1940's.

The rules on campus are not going to make the kids quit.  They are making it hard for students to live on campus.  The are pushing all of thier issues that happen on campus off campus.  If caught drinking during season or offseason your first offense is a warning and a $100 fine.  Second offense is a suspension of 10% of your games and third offense is 20% of games and fourth is your done.  Every time you are caught the fine goes up dramatically.  And you have to take some classes and i believe some communtity service.  The community service and classes i have no problem with but the fine is a little harsh.  College students cant really afford that.  If caught in the offseason everything carries over into the next year.  The students not in sports pay the fine and have to take classes.  And if you are 21 and  come to campus with alcohol on your breath and caught you are also guilty and pay the consequences i mentioned above.

I dont disrespect you i disrespect the things you were saying about AU throughout the year.  We knew it was going to be a struggle when we lost are starting quarterback, a great linebacker, tight end, one of our top recievers, and another reciever for 4 games.  All year you bashed us on how we werent the AU of old when we only had 8 seniors and maybe 10 juniors at the most.  And not all of these players played.  The coaching staff did great things when i was here.  My freshman class had 50 kids in it and we ended with 8.  They all left while coach scott was here after my freshman year.  I dont know how you can compare any AU team of old to now because they never accomplished anything that the teams I played on didnt.  They never beat any big time schools and never went to playoffs and won a game either.  The old teams might have played them close but they still lost and thats all that matters.  But i have no problem with you I was getting very angry throughout the year to hear AU alumni bash this team when they should know what we went through this year.  Are team made great strides and we have some great young players coming back.  If these kids stick around with all the stupid rules on campus being put in place they will be a solid team next year and will contend for confernce champs just like AU does every year.

I thought you were an AU alumni.  You are talking like you are a BU alumni and sound like you have no respect for AU anymore.  Maybe you should just room with Sergio and stay over there because hes only been there for about 12 years.

I am wondering where you got your information about Mac White not playing in the AU game.  The stats show he played and it proves that AU is a better team than what you believe they are.

Read the stats.  Mac White did play in the game vs.  Au.  Pretty sure he had a rushing attempt in that game.  He was tackled by AU's safety.

i really dont see how all these crappy teams are letting macmurray run all over them.  macmurray is a sub par team.  im not sure but did macmurray get some of thier starters back from injuries.  If they did i understand because they had some good talent going in to the season opener.
