FB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

[Pat Coleman]

THE WHOLE O-LINE WAS PLAYER OF THE WEEK FOR BETHEL???

Our Team of the Week is always an entire line, not five separate linemen. This is not a surprise.

[Freebird]

From a Bethel alum I would like to wish everyone attending the game safe travels.  Obviously this have been a great year for CUW and they should be proud of their accomplishments.  Saturday will be a great game and may the best team win!

[cudub]

Anybody read the "easiest game" party of this weeks ATN??? Ouch man, ouch.


And Freebird, no offense, but this has not been that great of a year for CUW, its been a good year, but not great.  Last season was great.

cudub-

Yeah, they said it's the "easiest game", but most of us knew that already with exception of a few are are picking CUW to win.

Who's picking CUW to win.   

[baseman201]

I know Cougswillwin did

But you can't trust Twin fans....

[FalconsFootball]

I think CUW can win (bias aside) but just like others have said, they would have to play ABSOLOUTLY MISTAKE FREE FOOTBALL.

Offensively -

No turn overs

No Drive stalling or ending penalties ie. holdings, delay of game (something we have always had a problem with)

And we must get the talented recievers involved early, be two dimensional keep the defense guessing, pass on first down occasionally.  NO PLAY ACTION ON 3rd AND LONG!!!!

Defensively

No plays over 20 yards

Bend but don't break

Force THEM to pass by geting them in third and long situation

Hopefully it will be a good game, it will be nice to see a good non-conference opponent.  Congratulations to Bethel on  great year!  I look forward to seeing this game.

Even if CUW plays mistake free football (which is ridiculious to even say because even the best teams out there make mistakes ALLL the time) they still get waxed by 40. 

Maybe it's a good thing this is the last year for the IBC.  We have been known as the worst conference in D-III football for who knows how long.

But no more, it's time to start fresh and new in the new conferences.

The NEFC is pretty bad as well.  I think they have a worse playoff record than us, even though it's only by 1 game.

[Freebird]

I'm confused about what is happening to this conference after this season...

[old 40]

Thefreebird;

Don't be confused. In 2008 the NAC and SLIAC will consume these IBFC teams.

AU, BU, CUC, CUW and Lakeland join Wisc. Luthern, Maranatha Baptist and Rockford to for the Northern Athletics conference,

MAC, EC and Greenville will join the SLIAC. I do not know the other members of that conference. Sorry. I hope this helps.


The IBFC all Conference picks are out on the IBFC conference web site. Congrats to all the players who made this team, the last all conference team of the IBFC. Also congrats to the LC and CUW Head C ;Doaches for their COY selection. Good Job by all.

old 40,

The SlIAC will have Blackburn, Principia, Westminster, Huntingdon (AL), and LaGrange (GA), in addition to Eureka, Greenville, and MacMurray.

Its website is www.sliac.oirg and you can get more information about the conference and next year's foootball championship there.

The conference will have an AQ in 2010.

  Front Page  D-3,   Five weeks, one Goal:
    " can Bethel end its play-off futility?"

   Looks like The Boys from Mequon do have a fighting chance.
   Will they(CU-W) be one and done or will they play one of those games
   that finally comes together where all cylinders are clicking, turning CU-W
     into a finely oiled machine? 
    When the fat lady steps up to sing the fight song, be ready.  This could
     be the "year" she sings the ballad of, The Boys from Mequon. 
     Think positively.

Old 40:
  Thanks for the heads up on the All-Conference posting.
   First time in awhile it`s been posted in a timely fashion. The All IBFC stuff.
   Who ever is keeping that site up to date is doing a nice job.
   MacMurray needs to hire that person to do their site.

Good luck to those boys in Mequon..........Run that option to perfection.......I predict a 41 to 28 CUW WIN...........Send us out right boys
