the lates posts show why the NAC has the lamest of all the threads in D3 Sports. 
If you do not like people talking "crap" do not read this is a message board that is what people do- calling them "jags" shows you are above that
If you do not like someone posting things you do not agree with- tough
If you are tired of someones points... but give nothing in rebuttal - tough
If you think that fans of another team should stay in their area as not to hurt our feelings - tough
If you read these posts and look to help someone with their grammar and spelling - get a life
If you have to constantly use the letters "IMHO"... we know it is your opinion
Lets keep using the phrase on any given Saturday or lines to that point...
People do care about schedule toughness - or think it is
People do care if a QB is better-or think he is
Saying that certain interceptions could have been caught by any DB - wow - do you think that the pressure the D-line could help with that - did your research?  What is research - are you a player or coach who is watching game film or just heard from a friend of a friend.

I say keep talking everyone
Show a little emotion
Show a little pride

The players will decide the outcome - but us elders and non-players need our fun too

Question for the Monmouth fans- will their be caber tossing at halftime?

From Scots 4:  "Yes they do, the tailgating area will be on the west-side of the stadium just south of the tennis courts. From the stadium, you will have no problem seeing all the tents and kilts out there. Just listen for the bagpipes."

I don't think anything's been mentioned about parking yet - it won't be good.  However, there will be a shuttle taking fans to and from the game at Peacock Memorial Athletic Park.  It's on the corner of 11th St. and Rt. 34 - can't miss it.  There's a nice-sized parking lot there where you can tailgate prior to the game.  The only downside I see is that you're not right next to the football field.


"Surprised?  If I woke up tomorrow morning with my head sewn to the carpet I wouldn't be more surprised than I am right now."

This is all I have to say about the "stuff" going on here

If you don't like what you read, why are you reading it???

If you take what others say personally, looks like it's your problem. The only problem I see is people who don't know facts saying things that need to be corrected. I saw one, I corrected it, and it was over.

And the reason some find the NAC board "lame" is that the NAC is a new conference that doesn't have the history that the MWC does. Ask anyone at the LC-AU game and they will tell you, give us time, the NAC will be just as nasty as any other conference.

Here's an idea...how about all you monmouth jags stop talkin crap (not all of you have been but you know who you are if you have).....WHO CARES WHICH TEAM HAD THE HARDER SCHEDULE OR WHO DID BETTER AGAINST THEIR ONE COMMON OPPONENT OR WHO'S OFFENSE IS RANKED OR WHO'S DEFENSE IS RANKED OR WHO'S QB IS BETTER....the only thing that matters is who brings it every play for four quarters on Saturday.....ANY TEAM CAN BEAT ANY OTHER TEAM ANY SATURDAY....this should be a great game and I can't wait to see it.....



does this guy understand what a message board is? haha this is why they were created.. so the old folks like us can discuss who had the harder schedule, whos O or D is better and who's qb is better.. you do know this is what every espn analyst does right? we're just not cool enough to be on tv.. take er easy..

as far as the ripon comment.. ive seen a few of their games and ya, monmouth is better but ripon isnt a team to laugh at.. they took a wiac school literally to the last second where they went for 2 with 30 seconds left for the win and were "controversially" stopped and were up on monmouth with 3 minutes left.. they are a good team worth talking about even though i guess besides strength of schedule talk its pointless?? ::) ... sorry thats my homer rant for the day..

to talk some football.....I've heard about AU's defense, what does their offense like to do? Run first/Pass first/Balanced?  I know their qb seems to be decently mobile, but do they have any gamebreakers/go-to guys on offense in particular?

If you're wondering about Monmouth I'd say this is their style in rather large nutshell: their coach really likes to run the ball, but he knows how good they are at passing and knows the personnel he has so they pass to set up the run, the recieving corp is deep some run good routes some are burners, alot of short and intermediate stuff, they go deep off playaction usually, the qb is a sophomore and conference POY he's a pocket passer that loves to sling it (41 tds to like 7 ints i think), their running game consists of zone blocking and powers here and there, the have the same back for the most part he's a downhill type but he usually comes out on 3rd down for a back that can pass block and catch the ball better, and they run no-huddle.
the defense is aggressive and loves to take risks, lot of blitzing, the d-line is very athletic for how big they are, the linebackers love the big hit but may be a little suspect in pass coverage, and the db's are usually in zone and like to bait the qb rather than play soft zones and bend but don't break

We'll see how this game goes to see if my feel of Monmouth football is correct.  That'd be bad if I just gave a better scouting report than the AU coaches have.

Geez!  Why don't you just give AU the Scots' first 10 plays while your at it???   ;D 

Probably doesn't matter....I think it will be pretty quiet on the visitors side by the 2nd quarter.   :o
HEY PAL, DON'T BLOCK THE SHOT!

So the NAC board is the lamest because we don't want people coming on here and talking crap about our teams and players???

Please, by all means, talk on any board at any time, but why should a MC fan (or any fan from some other conference) come on here and start a s*** storm???  What is the point of that?? If you don't want me to call you a jag then don't come on here and talk crap unprovoked.....does that make you feel like you got a huge one or something???

Offer your predictions for the game and insight that you have but leave your crap talk to your own boards...you don't see me talking crap on your board...and I know that I can and you would probably invite me to, but it's about respect....have some respect for the game and leave the s*** talk for game time

I am glad that AU and MC will play.....I think it will be a hell of a football game

Well seeing as though I just played Aurora, they scored on one long drive, the other drives were short fields where we did not really give up any big plays. The stud RB was out last week so I am unsure if he's playing this week but I heard he's done. I am going to say the biggest play we gave up was a 20 yard inside zone on 3rd and 18. That one play changed the game but they did not have any tremendous plays. The QB is very good out of the pocket, that is where he wants to be throwing the ball from, he wont sit in the pocket. They'll zone ya, iso ya, PA ya, etc. nothing great just basic ball. There D is good, thats all you need to know. Look at the national stats, they are very good...But thats my insight it will be interesting how AU plans to stop a high powered offense...

Congrats to all the ALL Conference selections. They are listed on the NAC web site. Good Job by all. Looks like AU, LC and CUW dominated as they should.

Good Luck to AU this week against MC.

Scottie-

Yeah, I am an NAC fan and played in the NAC, but this game should be ugly by the 2nd quarter.....hate to say it though.

Monmouth will have their scrubs in all the way through the 4th quarter....at least.

But prove me wrong AU.

Monmouth - 48
AU - 10
