FB: Northern Athletics Collegiate Conference

[rusty shackleford]

MC. Scottie....don't you have your own conference thread to post on? Coming here and starting stuff is so immature.

that is what message boards are for.  For people to chat and discuss and even stir the pot.  For some it is what makes all sports message boards fun. 

[scottie]

au dad, sir:  I'm not sure what "stuff" I was starting.  I was only hoping to visit your board and learn a little about the Aurora Spartans as well as your conference.  So far, about all I've read are a couple of incoherent and rambling posts by DC, and can only assume that his moniker reflects most of the grades on his transcript.  (I'm sure he couldn't be an Aurora grad....)    

I'll head back the MWC board, and you are all welcome to visit.  A general grasp of the English language is preferred....you know, spelling and punctuation and "stuff."  Oh, one more thing. The South end zone at Monmouth is awfully close to the MC Library.  If that makes any of your players uncomfortable, they might want to check out their own sometime this week and acclimate.

PEACE!

Here's the thing, if you're not going to talk subjectively about football we don't want you messing up our board, second of all playing a team the first week and playing a team on the back half of the season is that injuries and other things may have happened to the LC squad that gave MC the advantage whose to say if the weeks were swapped that AU would have become the greater victor, as previous posts state there is that sayin ANY GIVEN DAY, MC posters are making motivation easier though by giving bulliten board material, MC, Scottie you both are obviously homers judging by your monikers, so if you will not concede hearing discussions of your teams weakness go trash talk somewhere else..... IMHO AU can and most likely win this game

I love all the hostility.  I'd much rather have this than no chatter whatsoever.  It shows that people from our not-so-nationally respected conferences really care.  Our conference was ranked higher when this website did conference rankings earlier this year but not by enough for it to make a huge difference in this matchup.  I've done some research, Monmouth is the favorite if you have pick one(seeding, stats, record),  both teams seem to play well in the second half, and both are balanced.  I'm sure the Spartans are going to love the underdog role, and MC fans may be a little overconfident...but I know the players on this Monmouth team and the coaching staff very well, and there is no way that they are overlooking Aurora at all.

Looks to make for some good healthy competition!

Overall...c'mon Spartan fans! Can't we kid each other?

Talking about a game in week 1 is silly. Let's see, MC beat Loras 24-17 in week 1. In week 2 Loras barely beat Millikin who got crushed by the team AU lost to 44-0. What the heck does that mean? NOTHING. It really is a stupid arguement. Here are the facts: AU has a tough defense that has stopped both passing and running teams. AU is clearly no Ripon or Carroll that run the ball 75% of the time.

AU is the clear underdog here and as all NAC fans know, they wouldn't have it any other way. They were overlooked all season and they contiue to do so. I pray that MC takes AU lightly, they will sure be in for a big surprise. One thing I know, AU is going to come ready to play and it is going to be a good game...no matter what others might think!!!

AU DAD

Well said.  Bring your a game!

So I think that both Aurora and Monmouth fans will find this interesting.  Check this out.

Lets see what everyone thinks.

[Jester76]

First put it on College (Div 2 and 3)
then put in this year.
next put in the two teams (Monmouth Home vs. Aurora Away)
Then click 25 game matchup.
Then hit enter.

[muzzman]

That why they play the games, and most folks dont like the BCS

[baseman201]

Jester-

Haha, that thing is awesome.  Ah man, Mt. Union drubs CUC 67-3...I thought they had a chance!!!

[Jester76]

You are right that is why they play the game.  But I think that this program can help us to gain a proper frame work, by which we should view our teams.  This program compares everything that you could possible think of like stats, opponents played, and on it goes.  So with that said lets wait and see what happens.

[LCLB52]

Well well well, playoff time here we are! As I just played Aurora there are a few things I have to say. First off, I know very little about Monmouth but it seems they have a pretty good offense based on the scores that our coach read to us each Monday. The game should be interesting...It seems that Monmouth relies on the big play and this week we also relied on the big play and that was taken away from us and we struggled. I am going to say that Aurora succeeds when the defense succeeds. If the defense forces turnovers and gets pressure on the QB the AU offense will score points. If it turns into a run and shoot game then Monmouth will win. From what I saw Saturday and other game films, Aurora's D is pretty stout and should do well this game! I hope for the best for both teams and good luck!

Scottie-

lol are we serious this is not English class buddy, but a football board something you probably know nothing about but yeah lets argue about typing on the board, lol what a lame.

[Scots4]

DC- Chill out man, he was just giving you a hard time. On a serious note, it does hurt to read some of your posts.

This should be a good game. These are two teams that are unfamiliar with each other which will make it an interesting week of practice for both squads. This will be a nice way of showing who prepares better for each other. I noticed a lot of players on the Aurora roster are from the Monmouth area so it will be a nice little homecoming for them. Aurora's strength of schedule is weak, but so is Monmouth's. Both of these teams are drooling at the chance to win a playoff game because of the favorable match-up.

Going off of what little I know about Aurora and what I know about Monmouth, I am going to say the Scots win 35-24. The stadium will be packed and I hope Aurora has a good following to cheer their team on.

Anyone from this board going to be attending this game?

AU will have a good sized group in attendance to cheer the Spartans on....  Does MC have a designated tailgating area? 

This should be a great game,  both teams will be prepared and looking to move on.   That being said  AU 17 - MC 13.

DC,

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
