Support from K-Mack for a CMU-W&J first rounder.  This year also has the potential for a W&J-W&L matchup.  The Generals still have to beat Bridgewater and E&H though.  Maybe just beating E&H.

WUStL has struggled offensively.  Eg, 13 pts, 142 yds v CWRU.  Their attack is more balanced this year, mostly because the passing game is down.  They've scored 3 1st Q TDs all year.  Their D did hold Wheaton to 134 yds rushing the lowest of the year, but they gave up 300 yds passing.  And lost 48-7.

Knew WUStL lost a record breaking receiver last year, but what about the quarterback?

Last week was a tough week for my alma mater, especially given the five horse race in the NCAC, but the redeeming quality (for myself at least) was the fact a wing t team was the conqueror; though again, as with Augustana, am not a very big fan of their version.

Is the CMU defense a thirty front or fifty?  Please dont let it be one of those 3-3-5 things I sooo despise.  Really only liked it in the nascent version when the Michigan directional schools in the MAC were employing overgrown safeties as ends in fifty fronts back in the late eighties and ealry nineties; thought that was a case of coaching and scheming to your talent, whereas this 3-3-5 thing seems to be becoming an institution or something.

The thirty fronts do have some redeeming qualities if your offense is expecting to control the possessions and score with relative consistency.  Sound like the wing t?  Twas those explosive offensive teams of Kosar and Testaverde that really first footed the 4-3 weve all come to know and love,  growing from the college 4-3 with the SOLB walked up with cover three to the monstrosity that became the cover two with WOLBs splitting distance with recievers out the box.

Well, I couldn't tell you half their shemes, but CMU runs a straight up 3-4 for the most part.  I did notice last week that Chicago runs a nickel 3-3-5.

MacLeod  They have 2 senior QBs, both of whom played last year.  The one who played most last year, Henry, (all 10 games) hasn't fared too well ths season.  Don't know if there is an injury issue.  After they split time early, McCarthy has been pretty much full time the last several games. 

BDT, If you are lsitening to the game, please keep us filled in. I'll be listening to CWRU-UChi.  Spartans need a win to get to .500.

Go Spartans and Tartans!!!

I am going to try to listen to the game on the webcast but its kind of choppy since I only have about a 24 kbps connection.  I will give updates when I can.

Good luck to your Spartans.  I think CWRU/UChi. will be a good game to watch.  Where is it at??  If it is at CWRU and not during the CMU/WUStL game then I would have half a mind to drive up and see it.  Only because I think that it is a good match-up.

It's in Cleveland...but Noon kickoff.  I'll tune into CMU-WUStL afterwards.

CWRU got as close to them as anyone in UAA last year 14-7.  If the Spartans can protect the ball, it should be a W.

That pretty much goes for CMU as well.  At least that is how I feel.  If they can go mistake free and keep the Bears off the scoreboard then I think eventually the flood gates will open for CMU's ground game.  UChi. was only giving up about 80 yds. a game on the ground and CMU got 272 with over 100 of that coming in the 4th quarter.

Yeah, that hurts.  Mirando hurt or ust hasn't been doing the job??

The CMU game won't start till' 1:00 here.  I wish my connection was a bit faster because its quite choppy with equal spots of silence and sound.

Whalen slips in end zone, questionable safety for Chi 9-0.  Another CWRU fumble led to good field position and a punt by Chicago inside the 5.

Whalen has started most games.  Mirando is in now, but has cast on left hand.  This is uglier than the weather!

Jeez, that sux.  That's why I am glad CMU likes to pound the ball.  This kind of weather plays to their advantage against most teams.

Is that Mirando injury due to hitting his hand on a helmet in the CMU game???

Three fumbles were all on running plays.  That was the start of the injury, but seemed to do the same thing last week as well.

The halftime hole is not as deep as last week.  Rosenbury was able to gain some yards at the end of the half mostly because the D was looking pass.

The 9 points are all on the O.  The TD was a 14 yd drive.

The weather is getting uglier.  Lightning and thurdersnowstorms.  30 min delay in start of half.

Wait, touchdown Facemeyer, PAT is good

7-0 Tartans. with 14:15 to go in 2nd quarter
