Congrats to UMU on a solid season and fighting hard tonight.

The fumble at the one hurt, but they didnt give in and rallied well.  Was confused by the finesse run left when UMU had 3rd and goal at the one when they trailed 10-0.  The formation seemed to tip the play and the Warhawk front seemed too quick to run against them laterally.  But i assume there was something seen on tape prepping for the game that the staff thought they could exploit.

With all the talent on UMU and UWW coming back, I expect the NAC champion to travel to Alliance or Whitewater for a 2012 first round matchup.

Hope the fans and players have a safe trip back...

Lady and Gentlemen ... just a reminder that you have less than 22 hours to get your picks in.

Purple Raiders win 27-21
UW-W scores on their first drive of both halves...and is driving hard at the end of the night...but Mount Union's defense refuses to break and hangs on to win.

Will have to watch this in NoVA - sadly, the trip down south has officially been scratched.
Hope the rain holds off for the people who have made it to Salem.

Belated thanks to the hospitable UMU supporters when I visited Alliance for the first round game.
Appreciate getting fed and being able to borrow cones until our tailgate group arrived.

I hope you all have a safe and enjoyable trip out here to Virginia.  Not sure I can get away from work and make the 4+ hour trek to watch, but I'll be pulling for a Raider win.  Cheers!
