In today's technology world, Mount Union should not be allowed to host anymore playoff games until they start streaming their games on the Internet.

Most of their games are over before half time.

Sound.

According to Keith McMillan ‏@D3Keith 2h tweet

Mount Union isn't streaming because TV cares to buy the rights and tape-delay a full broadcast. #d3fb @crimsonace @d3football @Smedindy

Thanks, Bashbrother!

Your welcome....Joe Wally

As many of others on here have said...  This Wabash team needs to be celebrated for what they accomplished this year and this Senior class on the past 4.

Thanks, Bashbrother!

Likewise!  Just got done watching the video.  What a special group of brothers these are!

Last time we will see the ER show this year. It's a pretty good one this week. I always enjoy the work that Brent Harris, Adam Bowen, and their crew do for the shows and the games.

All-Conference comes out tomorrow (Thursday). What are you picks for Wabash guys and the rest of the conference? Do you think anyone from the NCAC could be All-Region or All-American? I was thinking Florence had a pretty good shot, but that's based on watching his performance against the Wabash D a couple weeks ago. Also, I may think of giving Sobleski a nod towards that as well. He has a pretty good punt average, plus he reached 10 fair catches and over 20 punts inside the 20.

[wally_wabash]

Yes, Florence will be All-Region for sure.  AA will depend a whole heck of a lot on what happens in Alliance (potentially). 

Sobleski has a good shot at All-American I think.  Ian MacDougall as well.  Both of these special teamers were outstanding this year.  I'm awful at judging the performance of offensive linemen, but I think one or two Little Giants could see some regional recognition if not national.

Bash Folks / others interested in a glimpse at a Wabash tradition.

Here is the 2013 Monon Bell Chapel Talk......   It is great.   ER is getting very good at this!   He is a must see!  All the captains were great as well.    I am hereby granting medical redshirts to Nate Scola and Mark Riffle.    Wish I could.

Monon Bell entrance -  1:03
Mark Riffle -  2:05
AJ Akinribade -  7:40
Tyler Holmes - 18:00
Nate Scola - 22:50
ER -  30:00 -  Amazing speech from Coach Raeburn  - Very Inspirational

Going to miss these Seniors.   37-6.... Not bad... Not bad at all!

WAF

All the students were good. Scola's stood out to me, though. That dude is a serious Wabash man.

And Coach Raeburn's was greatness. I know there is no doubt about how we all feel about ER but having a coach who "gets" the rivalry and the school is such a great thing. He might even have missed his calling as a stand-up comic.

There are at least 5 worthy QBs in the North region. Florence, Stanek, West, Myers and Burke.  It's going to be a tough decision.

I always had to show my work in Abstract Algebra and Real Number Analysis - and I still have to show my work to skeptics to this day.

There are always howls about the NCAA being open and transparent on picking at larges for all championships. We don't have to attach names, just see the work.

Proofs in Abstract Algebra were far easier than anything associated with the NCAA.

[bashbrother]

ok....   Let's try this again.   I realize now,  why I pay my staff proofreaders. 



Again, if anyone would like a PDF or jpg. of this,  please message me your email.

This is a good point.  The quarterback play around the region this year has been filthy. 

- Stanek, Burke, Florence, and Mees are your top 4 nationaly in PER.  Myers is 13.  West is 16. 

- West, Florence, Burke,  and Stanek are your top 4 nationally in points responsible for (and isn't that what the whole thing is really about?). 

How many of these guys will get All-American?  Hard to say...with only four A-A spots available for the whole country, you're not gonna...ah, nevermind.

Breaking...All-NCAC teams are out. 

Gregory Award - Reed Florence
Critchfield Award - Nate Scola
Newcomer of the Year - 5th year senior Barry Flynn...seriously
Coach of the Year - Joe Fincham

More to come....congrats to the award winners!

[Li'l Giant]

All great choices. I didn't consider Flynn in my NOTY thoughts because I wasn't thinking about the fact this was his only season playing football.

Congrats to all the winners.

I should clarify because there's probably an opportunity to read more snark into my post than was intended.  I'm not banging on Barry Flynn as a bad choice for the award...he had a great year for sure.  I've just always though the spirit of that particular award is to spotlight the best of what's to come in the league.
