FB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

[micro]

South fan Im with you.. Who is going to win the IBFC this year based off Non conference schedule.. doesnt look to good for anyone. LC loses a close one to Carthage...MAC gets beat by Wooster.. MAC's offense could not by a good series... It was very unknown if the load could be carried by Ereg and Mike Schmidtke (QB).. The defense was on the field 80% of the time. Is this an indication of the 2003 season when MAC's offense was horrible??? I guess we will find out huh? Wonder whats going to happen when they go to Tri-State this weekend?

[maddog8]

I agree Lakeland all the way. Again Lakeland pysically beat Carthage, THE OFFICIALS GAVE THAT GAME TO CARTHAGE. Our Lord Jesus Christ could not have won that game the offucials would NOT let it happen.  We have Whitewater at home next week. Time will tell

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME.  THE QB HAD NO IDEA WHAT HIT HIM.  The Defense held them to 52 yards rushing on 30 attempts when they average over 300. The Qb #8 was 13 for 38 passing for 148 and 2 picks NO TD's, he rushed 17 times for 38 yards.  Carthage needed to shut him down and they ended up derailing him. The ref's can not control cashing in on 5 turnovers. Plus you mention Barrie as player of the week he had 5 carries for 5 YARDS are you kidding me how can a player of the week have that kind of game.  Carthage made them one demensional and when you do that you win football games I don't care who you are.  That Qb has got to be having nightmares from all of the blitzing and the pounding that he took. There were many times where he could barely even walk to the sidelines. Lakeland is mad because they consider themselves under rated and this was THEIR ONLY CHANCE to prove the nation wrong and they couldn't do it.

[maddog8]

What Marker or Markermark what ever, Your right he did not knew what hit him because the plays were over, maybe that is why they were flagged what 8 times for ruffing the passer, more like some cheap shot. besides I asure you YOU could not have with standed half the punishment he took. Besides for there coach to e-mail me personnally talking how the D-Coord kept saying what does it take to get him out, say alot for the QB. Further jackass, lets talk about the refs, uncatchable balls, Lakeland flagged when the ball WENT THRU THE UPRIGHTS. YOU WOULD HAVE TO OF BEEN 16'8" WITH A 52 IN VERTICAL JUMP TO EVEN HAVE A CHANCE IN HELL TO CATCH THAT BALL. SECOND, WHEN DOES THE NCAA PUT THE BALL ON THE ONE YARD LINE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A 15 YRD WALK OFF, JUST MAYBE BECAUSE CARTHAGE WOULD NOT HAVE SCORED HAD THE BALL BEEN WALKED OFF 15 YRDS, BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE HAD TO STILL GO 26 YRDS AND THEY TOO COULD NOT MOVE THE BALL. Now having said my pease IF you were at the game YOU know what I am talking about. Please take nothing away from Carthage they fought hard minus the late hits on the QB. Also yes Barrie ran very hard, actually I'm sure he would run over a putts like you. Beside I think I probably have forgoten more about football than you know!

[maddog8]

Oh and one more thing Mark on this Marker, The QB does get dazzeled by those hits that why he got up after everyone of those hits. As for showing the NATION well we did show the NATION because being unranked and barely losing to the what 13 ranked team, and punishing the 13th ranked team LET THE NATION BEWARE WERE FOR REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!

[maddog8]

MY BAG THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DOES'NOT GET DAZZALED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[markdamaker40]

Wow, Mad dog got a little mad, just like a typical Lakeland guy to bitch and moan when things don't go his way.  Ohh so the Qb is your son, I would be mad too if my son took a beating like that. Second I was at the game I believe there were only 2 penalties for roughing the passer not 8. The reason I know its not 8 cause in the stats that are posted on the web for ALL TO SEE it says 5 penalities for 40 yards. Last time I checked a roughing the passer penalty was 15. Unless that was a new rule change that I am unaware of.  If Barrie can run through a brick wall which is basically what you are trying to say to me why didn't they go to him more instead of 5 times.  That to me is not showing a lot of faith in your "Player of the Week." 

Now seriously though Lakeland is a tough team they will give teams trouble down the road but after this next week if they don't win the rest of their games, taking injuries out of there, that is horrible.  Had it not been for Lakeland going deep on a 3rd and 4 against Northwestern with about 2 minutes left in the game their first game score would have been 20-15 wow that almost looks like the score Carthage just beat you by.

Again though take nothing away from Lakeland just when plays needed to be made they didn't make them and the fact that their 300 pound linemen are holding like the defensive linemen are candy bars doesn't mean the refs lost you the game.

Period.

Maddog8:  Just looked at the game stats.
  Did lakeland have a punt blocked and returned for a TD?  If i`m wrong, my apologies.
  I`ve read your comments and i see the vigor but
  it`s early in the season so proceed with candor
  and don`t be so quick to take the bait. We both know "facts" are indisputable and B/S and opinions
   are debatable and referee`s are at every game
   as unbiased (?) rules  enforcers. You have left your self open  to a whole lot of "jaw-boning"
   from this forum but you already know that remember last year?
   Having a family member playing at LC and with the with the anticipation of a possible Conference Championship at hand and maybe a play-off game
  the stakes are high. That being said,  when you stick to the facts ( like-um or not)  your comments are  beyond reproach.  In the past you`ve been
  thoughtful and fair in your comments  about the IBFC and it`s players/teams.  That IMO gives up a leg up on this forum , don`t take the bait!
   I`m not taking you to task in any way just expressing my opinion  from my experiences after over 4 years posting. I must say i had some great
  times on this site.
  LC is doing what other IBFC schools should do and that`s to play quality competion and i a take my hat off to them for that.  No offense to others.
  IMO, if LC doesn`t win the conference this year
  they`ve wasted a great run. I have no ax to grind
  so that`s just how i see it.
  As i said above, my comments are not ment to be
  mean sprited in any way.

Gomer your right and therefore I am enjoying the season and not getting into any more post arguments. Sorry just hate when people knock my MUSKIES. I hope all the IBFC team do well this weekend and please leave your players of the week regardless of stats, heart does play a factor in the ALL MADDOG TEAM. so please don't exclude someone based on stats. I stand by Barrie and Zeck as my players of the week for Lakeland! Talk to you all next week.

Maddog-

POW for week 3

Coach Duncan - He was wise enough to change his "bye" week to the third week before starting conference matchups. Now if we could just dump Valpo from the end of the schedule for a decent DIII non-conference team our tune up for the playoffs would be considerably better.

[Gomer Pyle]

 The schedule for this week-end does not favor
  teams from the IBFC, IMO.(3) teams are playing
  good programs,( 2) playing so-so teams and (1)
   playing a weak team.
  Winners are , again this is my opinion, are:
     Concordia, Wis.
     MacMurray.... "needs" to beat X-coach Frey.
  Not so lucky:
    Concordia, Ill
    Eureka
    Greenville..... #22 Wheaton to strong.
    Benedictine.....#18 Carthage brings the heat.
    LC...................#15 UW-Whitewater. To many 
     horses.
  Course we`ll all know for sure Sat night.... who did what.
