FB: North Coast Athletic Conference

[formerd3db]

Isn't it ironic,  the year Mount Union goes to the East bracket, they put a better team on top of the North 

Did anyone else that watched that game really feel as though they were watching big time football;  the speed, the play calls, the defense etc. 

Great game and Beaver is a great story. 

Yes, I did.  It really did seem like "big time" football (heck, it is! ) and I am not just saying that because I love DIII football.  The atmosphere was just like you described, even on TV i.e. ESPN.  Indeed, a great game as you said.

It will be interesting to see how Whitewater rebuilds or reloads.......

They lose 7 starters on offense (Beaver, Jones, 4 offensive lineman, Top WR)

They lose 7 starters on Defense (Raebel, entire lock down secondary, Orgizovich)

Will be interesting.   I am sure they have talent waiting in the wings, but will it be enough?

Wally, loved your shout-out to UWW's D.C.  Brian Borland on the OAC board.  Gave me a big smile and +karma for you every 24 hours for a week from this UWW fan.  Again, your coaches, players and fans were great and it was a pleasure to host the Little Giant family at the Perk this year.  Good luck next season.

Enough with the cryptic B.S. 

Here's what everybody is talking about.

Wow, Wally, that is some news.  Sorry you guys lost Creighton, but I guess a good gain for Drake.  Who do you think 'Bash will hire now - anyone from the current staff?

BTW, while some people on other boards (not any of you guys) have "bashed" (pardon the pun here please  ) I-AA non-scholarship football programs during various discussions in the past, I forgot that Drake upset Illinois State in their opener this year.  That was huge, and they even had 12,000+ in attendance at the game, which was played at Illinois State.  Ranks up there with San Diego's win against Yale last year I would say.  I am not trying to stir up trouble, but rather just throwing this out as a general, tangential observation/comment, in view of Drake's new hire, i.e. since the topic was Drake/Wabash coaching change.  Interesting, but again, sorry you guys lost a good coach.  That's the nature of the profession, though.  I'm sure Wabash will still be fine next year and build on what they accomplished this year.
