Where did all the CUC fans go?

still here Da One, just nothing interesting to read of lately. I could give a rats ass about MADDOGS team or whatever you guys are talking about.

[FalconsFootball]

Maddog's team has consistantly been pretty close what the actual all conference selections are.  However, I am sure he has not been to a whole lot of games this year so it probably wont happen.

I am still here! School work and work work come first! then Posting!

  Front page stuff: Div-3 site.  Around the region.
    Big,big game this week-end.  CU-W odds on to win the IBC if they win against
   Greenville. If they(GC) on the other hand can pull off the major up-set,
   they can put their program on the map (so to speak).   
    CU-W, knows it can`t  take GC lightly as they(GC) are playing their best ball  to-date........tied for 2nd place in the IBC. That alone says something about this years team. 
    Can they beat CU-W ?   Sure they can .    Will they ?  IMO, No.
     There will be no moral victory here if GC loses close.  CU-W on the other
     hand  needs to make a statement here. Win convincingly to show
     dominance and keep mental toughness for the up coming NCAA play-
     offs or win  a close game and go into the play-offs with-out total
      confidence. 
       That being said, they (CU-W) need to dis-mantle  Greenville and leave
        no doubt who the big dog in the IBC is. 
      Carry that over into the play-offs and they have a chance to win one for
      the IBC.
       Would i like to see Greenville win? You bet but like i said ....."i don`t
      think so."

GC vs Mac box score also said that it was 34 -6 going into the 4th quarter. Judging by the score i would speculate that many of those rushing yards were against non starters.

everyone keeps talking about if gc can make cuw pass, slow down the run. No team has score more than 20 points on cuw. will gc get in the endzone is a bigger question. cuw will get yards, but will gc. Only time will tell.

No team has score more than 20 points on cuw. 

Sorry, I beg to differ!

CUW has scored at least 30 in every game this year

[grover1728]

Having not followed GC at all this year, I think that their chance for a win over CUW is going to have to be a shootout.  I think GC has the weapons to do it too.  CUC played CUW very close with their spread out passing offense and if GC hasn't changed since last year, they have a similar attack, except with more years on their belt with the offense than CUC.  In recent years theres no doubt that GC gets up for big games against the more established programs.  I think they have a legitimate shot to win this year. 

That being said, its sad the IBFC will be no more.  From the scoreboards I've seen it looks like the IBFC is really beginning to even out.  The weaker schools are making moves to commit to their football programs and bring them to the top through coaching, stadium upgrades, etc.  It makes for much more interesting competition and hopefully it carries over to the new conference next season.

GC was only close to their competitors this season and last.....Not years though I do agree that they have improved.....but I recall them getting destroyed until last season.

I think CUW takes this one....though it'll be closer than people think

AU decimates EC .....Like every team this season

It was 17-17 at the end of 60 minutes. I don't usually fault a defense for failing to hold on every possession when the opponent is given the ball on the 25!

Pat's argument shoots this theory then!  

[sotha sil]

first of its neither a thoery or a theory...its truth...they have scored at least 30 every game...one time was in 2OT...but regardless scored 30

[coocooforcoekohawk]

CUW got oodles of respect in the regional rankings.  Looks like if they win out they may be hosting a playoff game, and most likely playing a CCIW team.  Big things are brewing at CUW, and for the IBC.

  Gomers picks for this saturday, Oct 28th.

   (1) Eureka vs AU:  Eureka is just flat bad. Give them their dues though as they show up at game time and play to the best of their ability.
   AU has more and better players over-all  and will win this game with no problem.
    In fact it could be a "blow-out."
   (2)  Lakeland vs CU-C: Lakeland ( Little Cheese Heads) is the better team and wants to atone  for getting thumped last week against CU-W.
CU-C on the other hand, has shown signs of life and could use this  game
  as a bench mark for their program.  If they can pull off an up-set of the once mighty Lakeland team their season will be a gigantic success.
    But i said..........."if",  not  going to happen!
    Lakeland in a cake walk.
  (3)   Mac vs BU:  Mac is going no where fast.  The once proud program has
    become the Eureka of past years. No offense to Eureka intended.
    As Mac will be leaving the IBC for "greener" pastures, maybe this would be a good time to re-evaluate  their program including the coaching staff.
    BU has had Mac`s number the past few years and this year will be no different.
      BU makes Mac look like they are..........lousy.
    (4) CU-W vs Greenville:  Will Greenville have enough to de-rail CU-W??
      Greenville,with a win, can tie for 1st place in the IBC. Who would have
      thought it?     All of a sudden here it is. Can they pull it off?? 
      .
       CU-W on the other hand,  is running on all cylinders.  Undefeated.
       They know full well whats waiting for them with a win. An IBC
       championship and the bigger prize................The NCAA play-offs.
       Oh, and don`t forget the life long reminder...................THE RING!!
       Greenville comes to play but CU-W plays better. Game, Championship, 
        Play-offs...........game, set,match.
       
        Those that can: Keep the board posted as to the scores.
