FB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

Oh yeah, We all should know how political this kinda stuff gets when it comes to seasons end......Just like back in the day, the team that gets the conf title usually gets more votes on all conf.....Same concept, the politics lie in the so called credibility of teams they think may be better, for instance in this region ncc and wheaton are the so-called better teams, but they can be taken down the cciw likes to pretend theyre better but theyre not and cuw proved it by beating ncc, tru that cuw didnt get the job done when it mattered, and that is something that hopefully can be worked on in the last season of the IBFC next year

35-6 when it mattered!  That's what NCC beat CUW by "when it mattered" and it could have been 60-0!  You hang your hat on the first game all you want.  The fact remains that the IBFC is a terrible conference and will disband next year never having won a playoff game!

How is the selction of the All-Region team "political"?  The issue discussed here has nothing to do with a CCIW nominee getting preferential consideration over other "candidates".  Only one CCIW LB's was given All-Region honors and that was 3rd Team.  When you bring up the term "political", the implication is underhanded, corrupt or unevenly influenced.  That is not the case here... Pat and the voters have no unbalanced allegiance towards the CCIW.  Pat & team were not given extra cash behind the scenes to make sure CCIW teams were given more recognition.  

Umm... Pat you weren't, right?  

How many times does it need to be brought up?  This was a case of an AD or SID failing to nominate players from their own school.  Since they weren't nominated, they weren't even on the ballot for consideration.

<silence><crickets chirping><melting snow>...

Not even sure how to respond to this jumbled, run-on sentence with no coherent taught.

"I DONT GO BY THE HEAT SAY BS, I GOT BY COLD HARD FACTS, THINGS THAT CAN NOT BE DISPUTED!!!!!! HAHAHA"  

When I get home tonight I'll run this by my 2 year olds, because maybe they will have a better chance at figuring out what the heck this could possible mean.

Since you can't have an intellegent discussion over here anyway, I'll go back to where people don't need to use CAPS and avoid pages and pages of run-on sentences.

[CardinalAlum]

Does 53-7 sound familiar??  I'm sure you saw plenty of Augustana runners go by you!  Seeing as they rushed for 349 yards against you, I would imagine you respect them!

Why dont yall stick to your board........The first game was probably more indicitave of how good the teams were because everyone was healthy.....Im right with ya Pirollo........All the CCIW is is the IBFC with better facilities so come down of your high horse and fce facts you aint better......go ahead and throw stats at me cuz we know it and dont bother me

[Pat Coleman]

The first game was probably more indicitave of how good the teams were because everyone was healthy..

Except that CUW had played more games than NCC had. As in they had played one and NCC had played zero.

Ok... I will. 

By the way... you failed to mention that all the CCIW is is is is is is the IBFC with 11 playoff victories since 1999 instead of ZERO and 4 national championships in the 80's.

Logic is obviously optional over here when it comes to posting.  All that is required is to make sure the cap lock is on and you say "THINGS THAT CAN NOT BE DISPUTED" at the end of every post.  That automatically coverts incorherent, unsubstantiated rambles into impervious fact.

THIS POST CAN NOT BE DISPUTED!!!!!

[SCARED KITTY]

I was at LC's football awards banquet this last Saturday night. I must say I was very impressed with all the player and there achievements. If it makes you (JR) feel better it was not announce at the banquet that Wagner received the Region award. When I saw him after the awards to congratulate him on being LC's Defense Player of the Year, I ask him why they hadn't mention the Region award. He told me that he really didn't know why, awards are awards and they are nice, but if it wasn't for his family, coaches and teammates he wouldn't be were he is now getting an education and doing what he loves playing football. His father once told him he would never go to college, let alone play football in college. Boy did you prove him wrong. Good job John.

That makes two of us!  I'm going back to the place where it is peaceful and the posts are mostly coherent!   8)

Whoa, one day of not looking through here and there are pages and pages of all out war. Very, very exciting. Yeap, most likely IBFC will disband without a playoff win...but why even start going there? I like reading your posts CardinalAlum but I am a big supporter of IBFC and soon to be NAC. CCIW has some great teams and I have a few friends on some of those teams...it is a different type of atmoshpere, you guys have so much more than the IBFC. But there is no one to blame but the IBFC themselves. Sooner or later, the IBFC (NAC) will rise and get more recognition. Till then, I guess it is cool for you all to rag on the conference, including you Pat, always have to take a side and get your few words in.


J.R., I am sorry to hear about the bad news...if there had to be one player who actually had class in this conference and played well, you would be first on my list to mention. But everyone is right, you know how you played and the people who played against you know how you played...keep your chin up, you are a hell of a player.

and to BUFAN, I could tell you hate Notre Dame and I love it!!! Notre Dame is a team you either hate or love and well, I love them. I will say this though, I am scared for them against LSU...hopefully they will one day move to a conference. I could have high hopes right?

Well, sorry -- it's kinda hard to put a positive spin on this. Would it make you feel better if we left the bottom few conferences off our rankings next time?

Of all the conference boards, this one certainly has the most fireworks. Save it for the field.

Wow, you leave the various boards for a couple of days and realize things have gotten out of hand.  Guys, c'mon some of these posts could have been written by 2 year olds.
With regards to the CUW/NC 2 games.
Fatal Impact, I agree that early in the season teams are (usually) 100% but has there ever been a National Champion (or Champion at any level) that has won their award(s) by winning the first 2-3 games of their schedule(s)?

Sports are wars of attrition and who can survive the LONG journeys from start to finish.  Concordia-WI had a great year and I don't think anybody on either board is going to dispute that.  NC has had 2 great years now and I don't think anybody is going to dispute this one either.   
From the booth, the CUW/NC game was a good battle and I think both teams had their chances early in the game.  NC converted and CUW didn't get the points they needed early.
