FB: North Coast Athletic Conference

[Superfoot Wallace]

bzzz bzzz 

Defensive stand to start the second half after the offense has some formation problems.

5 oclock in the mornin whereya gonna be?

Outside on the corner.

[Superfoot Wallace]

Offense trying to help the defense with some field position, but the special teams are voiding every hard earned yard.

At least Pentello is being hit a little, though with defensive backs and not linemen.  If thats gonna be the case cant let that running back roam free.

Tiger up!

TD pass Pentello - 2 point conversion failed - Pentello hit again

[Superfoot Wallace]

Offense three and out.

Special teams take advantage of some good field position bottling the punt up inside the fifteen.

Cap moves the ball to midfield on a big pass play.

[Superfoot Wallace]

Witts gonna need more from the trenches in the fourth quarter.  Offense and defense.  Everything theyve got. 

Go Tigers!

Lets go Oline.

32-14, Cap wins.

Capital outgained Witt 566-227.  Ouch.  Next September's game should be closer...Capital is losing quite a bit after these playoffs are over.

Wally - how sweet is Wheaton smashing MSJ 28-0 late in the 3rd (even with 4 turnovers)?  The HCAC with another 1st round loss...

Congrats to Witt on a nice season.

Congrats to Witt on a good season. Hope to have a great season in the NCAC next year.

Bashbro: good luck in that Apple Cup tonight.

Lil Giant - Thanks.  The Apple Cup is a special game.  Huck the Fuskies!

Congrats to the Tigers on the good season.  They played better and played hard.  Looking forward to next season.  Go Tigers!!!!!

One of the things that has impressed on my mind as a poster on d3sports.com is the signature or tagline on formerd3dbs profile.  The quote, from Grantland Rice, reads something like this, "When the great scorer comes, hell ask not whether you won or lost but how you played the game."

In my esteem, the 2006 Tigers passed the Rice test.

Hard fought all the way, like oldguy says.

Glad the period of warm fuzzies directed our way by the Bash posters has come and gone, but glad to see some conference solidarity once the hens were pegged for the postseason.

Thanks MacLeod.  That quote is my favorite (obviously) and it applies in meaning in many ways.   Congrats on a fine season to the Tigers; I think what you comment on applies to our Hope team as well, even though the final outcome is not what we would have liked.

I have seen 2 of the Cap vs Witt games and can't figure Witt out.  They have good size on both fronts, athletic LB's and a very good running back, why are these games not close?  Is Caps speed just too much or is the coaching staff not getting these kids ready to play.  You just had the sense that Witt was just waiting for something bad to happen.

Congratulations on another sterling performance by the NCAC. Is Wittenberg really the best team in your conference? Maybe you should try to schedule a game with Heidelberg, although that would not be a sure win.
Better go back to talking about your academic superiority. Any football discussion would be a short one!
Good luck next year.

MUC57....no need for that post
