Pat Coleman:  Please log on to the Monmouth game and look at the camera quality from the host team.  Is this really acceptable?



Horrible, lost feed several times.

Sorry -- wasn't watching this board on game day but I know Stretch Internet had a ton of issues on Saturday. The camera quality isn't Stretch's issue but losing the feed is.


The worst part was the camera placement and view.

The 130th Bronze Turkey game! Throwback Jersey from the 100th game. Roll Scots!

With the bye week happening not much to go on. Looking forward though to seeing the results in the cross division games to how teams are faring. A lot can change in two weeks.

Ready for the season to get started. I think Monmouth could knock off Wheaton. I remember them knocking off Ill Wesleyan in the playoffs. Wartburg would need some things to go their way. I give Kudos to them for stepping up their non con schedule! Either way will prepare them for conference season.

Winning one of those would be big, not just for Monmouth but the MWC. So go win em both! Quit giving the football away so much like they did against Wartburg last year and the Scots got a chance. Then it's smooth sailing through the South till November.

The North will be a bit more of a scrum, but I expect another epic battle vs SNC for the playoffs in November!



Well, we got one of the two, which is good! A good win for the conference profile also. Not sure what to make of north at this point.

Man, wish I could make it Wheaton tomorrow to check out my Scots. Someday maybe they will hook up with Depauw or Wabash or anyone over here. #rollscots

I remember the Bronze Turkey games vividly when I played in the  late 80's early 90's. It was a very heated rivalry back then. My junior year was the 100th game and afterward the series tied 45-45-10. Of course this was when Knox was known by a different name (the Siwash) They have since became the Prairie Fire and I forget how many Monmouth has won in a row now. The atmosphere that was at the 100th game was incredible, just seems to have lost some luster until Knox can bring their program back up. With as many times as we have to play St Norbert lately we really should start a trophy with them.

Anyone go to the Franklin-DePauw scrimmage?  If so, how did the GRIZ look?

i did go since it was in town. When it was 1's against 1's it would have been a tight game. Franklin hit some passes, and had a TD dropped, but struggled a bit getting the ground game goin til later in the scrimmage. DePauw's 2's were definitely better. Really hard to tell, played pretty vanilla.

Monmouth turned the ball over multiple times as well! Yes Wheaton may have beaten Monmouth, but to say they would have crushed them, that may be an overstatement.

This is just crazy!!! I now live in Greencastle, IN. IC is playing just up the road and even not that far to get to B/N to check out my Scots!! I know its beating a dead horse, but I did not see IC making a second bid for the conference. It is great to see though. Good luck to my Scots and the Blueboys!

When I played at Monmouth we played 2 divisions with a title game at the end.
Coe                        Beloit
Cornell                   Lake Forest
Monmouth              Lawrence
Knox                      Ripon
Illinois College         St Norbert
Grinnell

So I am sure that with cross over games Cornell has played everyone in the past.

Best of luck to the Scots in their matchup with Dubuque!! How high will the score go in this game!!! (Sorry this is just based off the predicted bracket, jumped the gun a little)
