Here's the amusing stat of the week. CUC is currently ninth in all of Division III with 474 yards of offense per game. The team below them in tenth?

Mount Union.

Wow! A NAthCon squad actually ahead of the D3 champs in something?

Those thuds and tremors we're feeling are Pat and K-Mack keeling over and the earth quaking beneath them!!

Seriously, it'll be nice to keep that stat in mind, even if CUC falls below Mount Union in a few days.

Actually, with the simultaneous graduation of Michelli and Kmic, MUC's defense was expected to have to 'carry' the offense, at least early in the season.  I'm guessing Mount fans are pleasantly surprised to be as high as 10th (and doubt that Pat and Keith are in a state of shock!

Still, I understand the pleasure in leading MUC in anything football-related!  While CCIW teams have probably led them in something, it has been way too long since we led them on the scoreboard!

First, I would like to agree that CUC is having a pretty good year so far......but you also have to take a look at who they have played.....Their 5 opponents who they have beaten this year have a combined 7 wins (and there opponent this week is MBBC who has 0 wins).....Yes they are much improved from years past, but are they really that good or are they just finally beating teams that are worse then them....having seen CUC play the last four years, I would have to say the first is true....I'm not trying to talk crap, I am just pointing out a few things that I've noticed....I think the NAC will come down to the final week.....it should be exciting

Congrats to CUW. They remain atop of the NAC by themselves. I saw the game last night. Cold and rainey. WLC did a good job running the ball over 150 yards but could not score. Their red zone offense killed them as did the turnover (pick). The CUW FG kicker is the real deal. The best I have seen in the last few years. Warm ups he was hitting 40-45 yd. FG's with room to spare.  CUW will have to work on their Offense a bit as they get used to their new QB. I don't think anyone but CUC has a chance to beat them.

What is the background of the CUW-WLC game being played on a Thursday night? Is that a long-standing tradition or a one-time event? And forgive me for not looking this up on my own, but do either WLC or CUW have lights or did they play at a neutral venue that has lights?

[baseman201]

Yeah, that is a crazy stat for CUC, the have a pretty good offense, too bad they didn't show up against WLC.

Their offense isn't a problem, it's the defense I am worried about stopping BU, CUW and AU, will all be tough games.

Marotta is also 3rd in the nation for passing yards.

This game has been dubbed the Lutheran Bowl as of late, between cross town Lutheran Colleges.  It hasn't been a big deal until last year.  This year's game was also televised by the local cable sports network.  I'm sure that had something to do with it so that they both could gain some Milwaukee area exposure.  Milwaukee Lutheran has a beautiful field with lights.

Roberto Flores scores his 3rd TD of the first half as LC leads 21-6 at Halftime.


CUC has one explosive offense that is for sure!
