Russ Dunlevy is a freshman guard. He is not on the 52-man playoff roster at present, he is one of the alternates in case of injury but is not likely to make the trip to Wesley.

BDT-Your brother may be a back-up for CMU, but he's 2nd team UAA!!!

Alternate Approach would be to flex the weakside tackle and angle the strongside end, but Id have to credit Harmon for that and not sure how to spell Olecvashenskis name.

More props for the UAA, Tom Brew, after being a Draddy semi-finalist, is a Gagliardi finalist.

.500 in the recent play-off era, for now.

I see Wesley has three 6'3"~280# DL. Yet Dickinson was able to run for more than its season average against them. They got 5.4 per rush against Wesley. That gives me some hope for CMU to pull the upset. I don't think Wesley gets 49 against the CMU D.

Congrats to Carnegie Mellon on their shutout in the 1st round. Sounds like a tough "D" and that's what you need come playoff time! Best of luck in round 2.

Dickinson had 200+ yrds in the first 16 mins. of the game. They used Wesley's agressiveness against them running a lot of reverse miss direction and some sand lot trickery. After the first 16 mins. Dickinson got 59 yrds total. Wesley faced the winged tee last year in the playoffs and defensed it fairly well.
I know CMU has a good D but I do think that CMU will have to score a lot of points to beat Wesley. They are flat out fast and big

Let's go Tartans!

Tom Brew is UAA co-defensive player of the year, semi-finalist for Draddy, and a Gagliargi finalist, yet he's only second team CoSIDA regional. What were those SIDs thinking?

Pat Coleman · November 22, 2006, 10:28:34 PM

Well, you've got apples, oranges, bananas and tangerines here. Hard to believe there's a different amount of each.

ADL70 · November 22, 2006, 11:25:21 PM

There you go, Tom Brew, fruit salad!!!

Don't understand your point. National recognition for football, academics, and community service. Conference recognition for football. I'll acknowledge that the CoSIDA is D3 and D2, but a Defiance LB was first team. I do now see he was also a Draddy semi-finalist, but he was fourth on his team in tackles and only ranked by NCAA in one defensive category, while Brew was ranked in three ( and above him in the one category he was ranked) Don't know about his academics, but the Draddy and All-academic are more like oranges and tangerines than apples and oranges. With the national recognition, seems regional ranking should be higher.

Happy Thanksgiving to all, back from a long strange trip to Kent. Thank you cwru70 for acknowledging my brother. He was just as surprised as I was to hear he made 2nd team. Well, haven't seen much discussion on the Wesley game so I guess I don't have much to say. Getting ready to eat turkey and get some sleep. Heading to Delaware tomorrow morning. So I'll be back(hopefully with a win) on Saturday night.

BDTartan · November 23, 2006, 10:39:48 PM

This will be my last post since I am signing off until after the game on Saturday. Got a couple things to say:

CMU: The Tartans need to keep doing what they've been doing and don't quit. Ball control and defense. I hope they don't let me down on Saturday. Best of luck to the Tartans!!

W&J: I'm pulling for the Prez this weekend and I hope they can eek one out in Belton. That way there is a possible Regional Final at Gesling. Best of luck to the Prez!

Great season Tartans. No shame in losing to the #3 team in the country. Way to represent the UAA.

BDTartan · November 26, 2006, 01:02:30 AM

Haha, there are some things I'd like to say about the game but I'll hold my tongue. Great ride while it lasted. Looking good next season with 10 starters returning on O and 7 starters returning on D.

pg04 · November 26, 2006, 01:10:53 AM

Don't hold your tongue, I'd like to hear what you'd like to say! I can't imagine it would be any excuse after losing 37-0?

P.S. This isn't a shot at CMU I would just like to know what you are referring to after throwing something like that out there.
