Aurora gets UW-Whitewater.....

They sure did! Funny that this is how you typed it when the pairings were announced. Another NCC guy here to tip my cap. Caught the end starting with both interceptions. Fun team!

During the postgame press conference, Coach Don Beebe told reporters that the Spartans wanted either UWW or Mount Union first round, and during selection Sunday, the players erupted with excitement when UWW was announced. This team has the talent and mindset. I love to see it!

Also, congrats on NCC's domination over Lake Forest! Best of luck to both our teams in round 2!

Aurora reminds me of Franklin back in the late 00s early 10s. A high powered offense in a weaker conference not afraid to mix it up with the big boys. Grizzlies made a quarterfinal appearance in 08 after beating top seed NCC in the 2nd round. Aurora got their big win in the 1st round and have a good shot at reaching the quarterfinals now. Best of luck Spartans.

Oh don't get me wrong. Still had flashbacks when UWW in their heyday crushed Lakeland 70-7 after seeing what they did to a really down UWSP team. As the week progress I felt more like AU had a good shot.

I remember a Franklin team with Chase Burton throwing the ball all over the yard and Deontez Alexander making long TD catches regularly. That's the comparison I have for Swanson and Moore. Great passer and elite athlete at WR. The absolute best part of today's win though is how far our defense has come. The offense didn't need to drop 60 in order to win like 2019 and the St John's game. AU played complimentary football, and I am so excited to see what they do next Saturday.

Congratulations to Aurora on a great and well deserved victory. Your team is a joy to watch. I was prepared for an offensive show, but the performance of the defense took me by surprise.
I sure hope any of your players that got dinged up heal quickly and are ready to roll as I'm looking forward to watching and rooting for your team.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Both teams played so hard, which was especially impressive in those midwest winter conditions! It was a fun back and forth game with everything a football fan could want. The UWW players have nothing to hang their heads about. I hope all the players out there today heal up too!

Massive props to the Spartans on this historic win, and best of luck to Aurora going forward. As a hardcore Bills fan I'm rooting big-time for Don Beebe, one of my all-time favorite Bills.

The team has that Don Beebe never-quit attitude! Let's keep it rolling!

I've been a fan of Don Beebe going back to when he was coaching at Aurora Christian (he started there between my freshman and sophomore years), so I'm thrilled for what he and the Spartans were able to do today. If this is the beginning of their ascension into the ranks of the top D3 programs, what a way to start it.

I remember a few of those Aurora Christian teams playing a few Wisconsin schools years back. Always heard how fast they were. Still hats off to Coach Beebe and Aurora. Good luck to y'all at North Central on your run as well.
