FB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

The truth of the matter is Lovethegame is right.  The refs were not bad but they were making bad calls boths ways.  Being at the game I thought that they made more bad calls for Mac side they for Cuc.  Also when #1 hit the QB he was still in bounds but was obviously heading out that is why the flag got thrown not because he was hit out of bounds.

[Fartcus Smellwood]

Mac's offense looked great today with #15 back at quarterback.  He had a great day.  The score is pretty decieving though.  CUC shouldn't have been that close.  Mac had to play the refs too, although I'm not taking anything away from CUC.  They came to play.  Look for Mac to start playing much better though with #15 back to lead them.

you are seriously out of your mind...anyone that was at the CUC/MAC game could say that the refs were giving it all to MAC. their running back leaning forward BEFORE EACH SNAP, they GAVE him a td right before the half when he was no where near the goal line....STUFFED, they gave MAC an awesome spot their way(about one yard more than one of the refs spotted the ball) to give them a first down instead of 4th down.And wow, how the refs really worked that clock....and also to end it, #1 from MAC should of been ejected after laying out CUC's QB when he was 2 yards out of bounds already. Typical MAC team though, should you expect anything less from a team that has pieces of broken glass laying all over their field??? Guess not. My advice to other teams going to play MAC @ MAC...don't just watch the players, watch the refs too. Good luck to CUC on the rest of their season.

This is a joke, the officials called 5 consecutive penalties, 4 of which belonged to mac on bogus ASS passinterference calls. AND IF I HEAR ANOTHER TEAM CRY ABOUT HOW MAC IS DIRTY IM GOING TO SCREAM.

DONT HATE ON MAC YOU CRY BABY FROM CUC IF YOUR TEAM WAS BETTER THAN YOU WOULD HAVE WON, BUT YOUR TEAM SUCKED SO THEY LOST AND NOW WE HAVE TO HEAR ABOUT HOW BAD MAC WAS AND HOW THEY ARE DIRTY. CRY TO SOMEONE WHO CARES ABOUT YOUR TERRIBLE PROGRAM LOSING TO MAC, YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU SUCK TO MUCH AND YOU LOST SO HAHAHAHAHAH YOU LOST AND WE WON GO BACK TO CHICAGO AND CRY AND THINK YOUR BETTER BUT YOUR NOT, YOU LOST TO MAC EAT IT.

pretty much a perfect example of someone from MAC...i just don't see how you say the score was "deceiving" CUC's offense was amazing and MAC's D couldn't stop them...as a matter of fact, the only way they WERE able to stop them was when they had pass interference. I'm not being cocky or anything, I am giving it how I saw it and we were both obviously watching a different game.

[Reeno10]

MAC's D couldnt stop CUC #9 whats that all about ur suppose to be An ALL-AMERICAN? lol good job # 15 i wish i was still.. but hey good **** on the win lets snap off a 6 game winning streak u guys can do it...

The reason there are no stands on the otherside of the BU Sports Complex is that swampy/forested area is protected weltands and cannot be built on.  I dont know if that is permanent or if anything can be done to build on it but that is what we were told.  The reality? Ran out of money.

A great game between BU and GC.  I'm not gonna second coach cooper's decision to put in a defensive back as the kicker to win the game with a Field Goal at the end of regulation.  Not sure if you guys are aware of this, but according to the write up on the scoreboard of this website, the starting corner went in to kick the potential game winner.  I love this kid so i would have trusted him for sure, I'm sure people questioned this move somewhat, but if the previous guy wasn't gettin it done then why not?  Im sure there is more to the scenario but Im not sure of it all.

And yes, BU will beat AU for the first time in history this saturday.  Sorry AU posters, but its gonna happen someday, and it happens to be Octobr 14th.

[Bondtec]

Seems like the GC/BU game came down to the kickers.  The BU kicker ended up missing an extra point and a field goal, not to mention the last second kick that was missed.  The GC kicker came in and made the extra points and the field goals, not to mention hitting the game-tying one as the scoreboard said.  Seems like that was definitely the difference of the game.  One kicker came though in the clutch and the other didn't.  Crazy how the players play the whole game and it ends up coming down to the foot of the kicker.  Tough way to go out if your BU.  The GC kicker seemed strong and i wouldn't be surprised if he was the best kicker in the conference, although I haven't seen them all so that is just my opinion.   

[baseman201]

MAC will not win another game all season, simple as that.  I don't know what this 6 game winning streak talk is all about.  Your defense was flat out dominated by CUC, unfortunately as the score shows so was CUCs.

CUC ends the season with more wins that Mac does, I have no idea when the last time that happened was.......someone fill me in?

Unfortunately for CUC the rest of their games are against the best teams in the conference, I love CUC and I have no doubts they are getting better, but they just can't stack up against CUW or Lakeland yet.  Now, seeing how AU has played, I see hope for CUC against them.  Greenville is up there with lakeland now (and in my opinion better) but that's another issue. 

BUT........CUC will win more games then Mac this year and also win more games then the past 2 years combined, which is a great start to hopefully good years to come for them.

[7400West]

MAC WINS!!!!! THEY BEAT CUC 46-41, IT WAS A GREAT GAME, MAC GETS FIRST WIN, IT WAS TRULY A TEAM WIN. SEEING QB 15 BACK CHANGED THIS TEAM, THEY LOOK COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NOW!

How can you say it was a team win when the D let up 41 points!!! I dont know what is going on in jackson il, but something is playing with everyone's mind!!

MacMurry, You are a dirty team and almost lost! I will agree with baseman and you wont win another game.
I think CUC D beat themselves, the Mac D is nothing to be scared of and your O is poor aswell. CUC is kicking themselves, but you have to admit that CUC last week came to play and again this week! The team is really better!
Although the season is not over I am saying Coach P is COY for the IBC with the turn around of the team!
Your thoughts?

Lets Get serious.......THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN........NOT NOW NOT EVER........BU has improved.....but not that much.........No on OCT 14 AU gets the W.......On their home turf.........But even if it was at BU it would be like last year.......AU WINS...HANDS DOWN......END OF ARGUEMENT

[FatalImpact]

Oh yeah and CUC the bottom feeders of this conference will not beat AU......Not in this lifetime

[Fartcus Smellwood]

I just love looking on here and seeing how much people down the "bottom feeder" CUC after the games they have played...does the team get any respect at all??? MAC, who has beaten CUC every year almost lost and I would have to say got lucky in many ways...MAC is going downhill, Eureka is just staying downhill and CUC and BU are moving up and a lot of you think this isn't possible. Expect a good game between AU and CUC and AU and Bene. No offense to you FATAL but BU could beat AU and I have no doubt in my mind that CUC can beat them also. AU is no powerhouse like they always were....do you expect AU to come out and roll either BU or CUC? It won't happen, your lifetime must be ending soon, because these two teams are rising.

I guess we will just have to see how things unravel as the season goes on ehh???

[bufan]

Fatal Impact...im not sure how you can say this will never happen.  I mean, i can see how you can type it, physically with ure little fingers, but as far as making such a statement is not smart.  Only because after it happens in 6 days, i will not live it down.  7400 West i didnt rub it in his face.  We were just being loyal, competitive guys.  But i will make sure to be a poor sport, and u can do the same if u choose.

I would go as far as to say that CUC could defeat AU within the next 2 years, perhaps this season.  AU has gotten worse every year they have been around since about 2000.  Its a fact, you cant deny it.  So BU hasnt improved that much...lost 51-18 my freshman year, 42-3, my soph year like 60-21 my junior year...to 6-0 at the half my senior year...yes the final was 25-0...but yes they have improved that much.  We each lost to greenville by 7. Now i know that really doesnt indicate much, but it does say they are close enough to where its a virtual coin flip.

[Big_Uns]

As far as I'm concerned, everyone should be glad these so-called "bottom feeders" are doing better. It's no secret they've gotten better. I really hope BU and CUC can continue to get better so that they can make the new conference that much better when the time comes. The IBFC has such a horrible reputation and it's about time the teams start to change that.

Really........I'm tired of AU not getting any respect......As u tried to imply the weakening of AU....In 2004 Who represented THIS conference in the playoffs and was declared the champion.......AU....not BU not CURF (CUC)....Granted they have improved....I'll give y'all that.....But they will not beat AU.....AU is just more physical........Plus they're a young team.....Now to CUC you say they "could" beat AU.....But it wont happen because its all Logic....CUC loses to MAc (a bad team) and Mac loses to AU.....Granted the improvement on both teams.....AU still comes out the victor in both games

[Pat Coleman]

This is like reading Larry King when he had that column ... in USA Today ... very painful ... Try spaces.

[Twisted2]

AU will start getting respect when they stop getting rolled by CUW and losing to Greenville.  The AU team I saw this saturday couldn't bust a grape in a fruit fight.  Physical is not a how I would describe this team.
