Was also disappointed with the No whistle call after the INT runback at the beginning of the third quarter. The first play after the int saw Case gain 2 yards and then get pushed backwards 4 yards and even after the ball carrier was on the ground NO WHISTLE. Not surprising a Linfield player stripping the ball in the ensuing mob scene and Linfield got the ball despite the fact that there was no fumble or at least at the point of forward


Thank you

Great rebound effort by the WashU offense this afternoon, in a 31-14 victory over previously unbeaten Centre College at historic Francis Field in St. Louis.  After a paltry 6 first downs and 124 yards of total offense last week at Coe, the Bears tallied 18 first downs and 316 total yards vs. Centre.  Good balance, too...165 rushing yards, 151 passing.  Time of possession went from 17 minutes last week to 40 this week; including over 21 in the first half.

Defense held Centre QB Heath Haden around 25 yards under his 3rd-ranked passing yards average, and it broke up 12 passes.  DE Nelson Nwumeh tipped 5 passes and had 7 tackles for WashU, who improved to 2-2.  Centre falls to 3-1.

Best week of the season for the UAA so far!
I was small but made up for it by being slow...

The 45 points Linfield scored was Linfield's lowest point total of the season.  CWRU gave up 429 total yards compared with Cal Lutheran who gave up 655 total yards and Hardin Simmons who gave up 651 total yards.   The real star of the show was the Linfield DL.  I thought they played an outstanding game.

I was at the game and share your thoughts.  I think our defense did a great job (I am aware that they scored 38 points on offense) BUT we did a good job on their running game.  I believe that we could not control the offensive line game which did not open give Eric or Billy sufficient time to set up for a passing game.  I also think that influenced the coaches perspective on our running game and WE DID NOT run the ball enough (for my taste).
We have to give credit to Linfield, they are fast and close areas very rapidly. 
We now move on, have two weeks to rest and need to sharpen our game for the remaining five games and try to sweep the UAA games.
Tough loss but we move on....

What the defense accomplished was admirable, and it was done without Banky and without Bryant for most of the game.  Two pieces have been missing on the OL most of the year, too.

Two weeks to heal and regroup.  I was told earlier that Williams would be back this year, hopefully he'll be ready for the trip out west.

Reactions:

- CMU played their best game of the season against previously undefeated Geneva.  After opening the game with a drive that went nowhere, followed by Geneva promptly marching down the field and scoring, I looked at my friend & fellow alum and we both thought "this is going to be a long day if we can't slow down that offense" (Geneva was averaging 50-some points per game through three weeks).  Don't be deceived by the 41-34 final score; it was the defense, not the offense, that won us this game.  Desperately needed that win.  There are still flaws to work on, to be sure, but now it feels like we're moving forward again, and we appear to have discovered a real playmaker in sophomore RB Max Reinertsen.

- WashU also grabs a nice win against previously undefeated Centre.  Still seem to be struggling at the QB position but the defense remains study and they established a bit more of a running game this week.  The Bears have survived the toughest part of their schedule and have three winnable games leading up to conference play.  I expect them to get to either 4-3 or 5-2 entering the UAA schedule.

- Chicago appears to have survived a game in which they were outplayed (4.7 yards per play and 444 yards for Kazoo vs. 3.7 yards per play and 243 yards for the Maroons) thanks to six turnovers and some big plays from Vincent Cortina.  The Maroons improbable run continues, and at 4-0 I think the next several games on the schedule are all winnable but also losable.  I'll stick with my prediction from last week of 5-2 entering conference play.

- You guys have already covered the CWRU game in some detail.  Boys, lick your wounds, rest up, and get it together for that cross-country flight to Puget Sound; this is a winnable game.  Kinda tough with that double-bye week midseason.  I wonder if Coach Deb will give the boys some time off practice (even just a day or two) to hit the books, get ahead in school, and try to bring them back a bit re-energized.

As a rabid Linfield fan I was impressed by the Case defensive effort making numerous excellent plays and keeping Linfield from the big play offense.  Those 38 points sort of just subtley added up.
Don't forget your booties cause it's cold out there!

Wash-U rolls up 508 yards in a 44-7 home victory over Berry today.  Zach Lonneman ran for 148 yards, and Cody Ratermann added 75...both career highs.  Eric Daginella and J.J. Tomlin both threw 2 TD passes, Lonneman & Ratermann each had a TD, and Josiah Situmeang had a safety.  Defense allowed only 36 rushing yards and 149 total.

Wash-U led 16-0 at halftime mainly because of time-consuming offensive drives...first TD was a result of a 14-play, 98-yard drive.  30-0 after 3 quarters, as the Bears improve to 3-2.  Berry falls to 0-4.  Bears offense is carrying its own weight, which is a good sign for the 2nd half of the season.

Nice win for WashU.  3-2 with two winnable ones ahead.

CMU wins a sloppy game against "meh" St. Vincent team.  Good defensive effort, so-so offensive game.  Also 3-2 with two winnable ones ahead.

Chicago's Cinderella ride ends against Rhodes, but they were competitive and are still 4-1.

Should be a good conference season when we get there.

Checked Chicago's box, punt team did them in.  Two blocked for TDs and botched snap set Rhodes up on the 7 for another.  Maroons had slight stat edge.

I was scrolling down the scores Saturday and saw Elmhurst tied with North Central at half and K-zoo beating Trine.  Thinking Chicago looks pretty good, then saw their score and later that NCC dominated in the second half.

Still no one expected them to be 4-1 at this point.

My goodness!  That is rough.  On the bright side, Cortina threw 5 TD passes and is playing well at QB, which bodes well for the Maroons as the UAA season approaches.
